[CSSWG] Resolutions 2007-12-04

CSS2.1 Test Suite
-----------------

   We discussed the CSS2.1 test suite today, particularly how to
   incorporate Ian Hickson's tests and Microsoft's tests into the
   test suite. Arron (Microsoft) and fantasai (HP) will be working
   together on that project.

   Licensing was brought up: the HTMLWG recently adopted the MIT
   license for their tests, whereas the CSS tests are currently
   licensed under the W3C Document License. We could relicense the
   tests or license new tests under the MIT license if necessary,
   but we're not sure if that's needed. If you have any thoughts
   on that, please post to public-css-testsuite@w3.org or here or
   otherwise contact a member of the CSS Working Group.

Directing People to CSS2.1
--------------------------

  - RESOLVED: Republish CSS2.1 with REC-CSS2 as an additional
              "Previous Version" link.

  - RESOLVED: Point /TR/CSS2 to CSS2.1.

  - RESOLVED: Republish REC-CSS2 with the following paragraph added to the top:

       <p style="border: solid thick red; padding: 1em"><strong>
           Note: <em>This paragraph is informative.</em>
           This document is currently not maintained. The CSS Working Group is
           developing _CSS Level 2 Revision 1_, which corrects many errors and
           omissions in this document as well as making a few other changes as
           documented in the _changes section_. The CSS Working Group encourages
           authors and implementors to reference CSS2.1 instead of this document
           and when features common to CSS2 and CSS 2.1 are defined differently
           to follow the definitions in CSS2.1.
       </strong></p>

    RATIONALE: This text makes no changes that affect conformance to REC-CSS2,
               so should qualify as a Class 2 Change under the W3C Process.

  - RESOLVED Republish REC-CSS1 with the following paragraph added to the top:
       <p style="border: solid thick red; padding: 1em"><strong>
           Note: <em>This paragraph is informative.</em>
           This document is currently not maintained. The CSS Working Group is
           developing _CSS Level 2 Revision 1_, which has much more precise and
           Web-compatible definitions of the features described here. The CSS
           Working Group encourages authors and implementors to reference CSS2.1
           instead of this document and when features common to CSS1 and CSS 2.1
           are defined differently to follow the definitions in CSS2.1.
       <strong></p>

    RATIONALE: This text makes no changes that affect conformance to REC-CSS2,
               so should qualify as a Class 2 Change under the W3C Process.
               http://www.w3.org/2005/10/Process-20051014/tr.html#correction-classes

  - RESOLVED: Create /TR/CSS and point it at the CSS2.1 spec, which is the latest
              and most mature CSS specification. (In the future it will point to
              the latest Snapshot.)
