Paul, I am writing to follow up on the status of the author-only view of the HTML5 specification, the document now known as the: "HTML5 Edition for Web Authors". In November of 2010, the working group propsed [2] and the TAG agreed that carrying forward the author view >as a normative reference< would be an acceptable compromise to resolve the TAG's concerns regarding availability of a language reference for HTML5. The TAG is therefore concerned and disappointed to find that the version published as part of the recent Last Call [2] is clearly labeled as "non-normative". I hope this was merely a clerical error or other misunderstanding, but in any case I would be grateful if you would clarify the situation. Thank you very much.
