One of the problems I hope this group will solve is that HTML4 is frequently ambiguous and often lacks conformance requirements where it should have them. In other words, it frequently doesn't define the things a spec ought to be defining. Many parts of it are not useful at any level deeper than as a list of requested features, and I don't think it's useful, or worth anyone's time, to track differences between a list of requested features and an actual specification designed to lead to interoperable implementations. -David -- L.
