Okay, if you're actively maintaining it at all, or even think you might sort of be, then I'd prefer to delete my copy. I'm not planning to work on the spec at all, and if I do want to make a change or two I'll submit a pull request. What are the documents that replace my old editing.html, and are there links to readable HTML copies available (not just source code)? I'll update my old spec with links. I'd like to know what's happening with the tests, though. If the spec is actually being updated, the tests will be out of sync, and as things stand the expected results can't actually be updated based on algorithm changes, because they need to be regenerated in a way that cannot be done right now. If substantive changes are being made to the spec, it might be a good idea to ensure that there's a way to regenerate the tests, and that the spec editors do that whenever they make changes. Otherwise, I guess the tests will just fall out of sync. I just reformatted the tests to be more usable (many small files instead of one giant one) and made a couple of other tweaks based on changes made to Mozilla's local copy. I think web-platform-tests is where these things are supposed to go these days -- if that's correct, the tests should live there, and other copies should be deleted.
