-----Original Message----- From: Tantek Celik > I'd rather see efforts spent on HTML4/XHTML1,1.1,Basic errata and test > suites. I've only been writing HTML since March 2002, so I never actually used HTML 4 at all. I began with XHTML 1.0 Strict (because I used CSS from the outset) and migrated to XHTML 1.1 (delivered as text/html) as soon as it became practical to do so. From this perspective, I think any effort to revise HTML 4 is a waste of time. I would much rather see W3C efforts employed on the advancement of XHTML in all its guises. I think that test suites are very important and Tantek is right to point out that they need more attention. XHTML 2.0 seems like a poorly executed idea as it stands at the moment. Dropping of tags such as <cite> is a bad idea, and the removal of the style attribute is unfortunate. I like the change from <q> to <quote>, but I dislike the change from <line> to <l>. I believe a major revision of the Working Group's direction is probably needed. Apologies to Tantek for sending this to him only, in error.
