Re: [css3-syntax] Digest of remaining issues from recent discussions

Agreed.

This also applies to e.g. using CSS stylesheets based on the CSS rules in
the CSS3 Counter Styles and HTML5 specs.

I would expect these and the CSS3 Syntax issue are non-issues, otherwise
they would prohibit implementing the specifications. Would be nice to have
official clarification, though.

Thanks,
