Between 2004 and 2011 there has been only a single new Recommendation that is substantially supported by Firefox and Opera, as far as I can tell, and that's the one page long "element traversal" specification. And since then there has only been WOFF, .querySelector, maybe "media fragments", media queries, and stuff from the 1990s like color:orange and :root. See http://www.w3.org/TR/tr-status-stds for a complete list. I have looked through the implementation reports for the CSS WG's RECs and the most adequate answer to your question seems to be "never". -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Am Badedeich 7 · Telefon: +49(0)160/4415681 · http://www.bjoernsworld.de 25899 Dagebüll · PGP Pub.
