Given that the CSS working group has spent most of the last three years fixing the problems that arose from CSS2, and was actively maintaining the errata for some 3 years before that, that's a rather inflammatory suggestion. You will find the CSS2 errata here: http://www.w3.org/Style/css2-updates/REC-CSS2-19980512-errata.html This was maintained until CSS2.1 WD was released, at which point CSS2.1 WDs became the proposed errata for CSS2; now that CSS2.1 has reached CR, the CSS2 errata refers to CSS2.1 as being the actual errata for CSS2. http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/ -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
