Hi Julian, > the W3C version and the > "WHATWG" version of the spec aren't the same anymore. This is very true. One example: the image analysis paragraph remains in the WHATWG version plus added comments: <!--END w3c-html--><!--POLITICS--> User agents may also apply heuristics to help the user make use of the image when the user is unable to see it, e.g. due to a visual disability or because they are using a text terminal with no graphics capabilities. Such heuristics could include, for instance, optical character recognition (OCR) of text found within the image. <!--START w3c-html--><!--POLITICS--> And a bullet list: <ul class="brief"> <li>Instead of this section, the W3C version has a different paragraph explaining the difference between the W3C and WHATWG versions of HTML.</li> <li>The W3C version refers to the technology as HTML5, rather than just HTML.</li> <li>Examples that use features from HTML5 are not present in the W3C version since the W3C version is published as HTML4 due to W3C publication policies.</li> <li>The W3C version includes a redundant and inconsistent reference to the WCAG document.</li> <li>The W3C version omits a paragraph of implementation advice for political reasons.</li> </ul> Full differences: http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=5100&to=5101 Best Regards, Laura -- Laura L.
