Do we really need so many of these types of emails to the group? This happens more often than not when the WG makes a decision regarding an edit to the specification. First there's a lot of emails regarding that the edit isn't happening fast enough. Then there's a lot of emails regarding that the edit is done manually by someone other than the editor, then finally there are emails regarding that things are in disarray since there was a manual edit done by someone other than the editor. Is anyone really doubting that the editor will get to the change? If we necessarily need to have these emails go out, can they go to www-archive or some other list other than the HTML WG list which is mainly intended for technical discussions regarding HTML (or so I thought)? It feels very unfortunate that these days the majority of emails in this list are regarding process and not regarding the technical discussions of what's in the HTML5 spec. / Jonas On Fri, Nov 11, 2011 at 1:24 AM, Steve Faulkner <faulkner.steve@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear Chairs, > > I noticed that there have been several new revisions[1] since the revert > occurred yesterday, as well as those revisions overwritten as a side effect > of the way the revert was actioned. > > > These Revisions are not currently reflected in the HTML5 editors draft [2]. > Having access to an up to date version of the W3C HTML5 specification is a > fundamental requirement for review and oversight. > > Can you inform the working group as to when regular updates to the spec will > resume? > > > [1] http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker 6818 - 6824 > [2] http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/ > > Best regards > Stevef > > -- > with regards > > Steve Faulkner > Technical Director - TPG > > www.paciellogroup.com | www.HTML5accessibility.com | > www.twitter.com/stevefaulkner > HTML5: Techniques for providing useful text alternatives - > dev.w3.org/html5/alt-techniques/ > Web Accessibility Toolbar - > www.paciellogroup.com/resources/wat-ie-about.html > >
