My earlier message about <family-name> raises this issue but I thought it might deserve its own thread. CSS (both 2.1 and the various level-3 modules) has a chronic tendency to define property-value nonterminals only in prose, not with a formal syntax. That prose tends to be ambiguous, or at least to assume things that are never stated. I request that the WG audit the existing specs, all of them, and add formal syntax definitions for *every* nonterminal; and going forward, that new proposals be required to provide these definitions. [I don't care whether the grammar is L-anything. I only care that it be fully, formally, specified.] zwReceived on Tuesday, 21 April 2009 21:04:20 GMT
