Note that just referring to a few specific concepts defined in HTML5 does not force anyone to implement the rest of HTML5. As things stand right now it's quite possible to implement XMLHttpRequest according to spec, without implementing almost anything in the HTML5 spec. Put it another way, abstracting out these concepts from the HTML5 spec would on a technical level not change what anyone would need to implement. / Jonas On Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 11:56 AM, Klotz, Leigh <Leigh.Klotz@xerox.com> wrote: > I'll take this as a "No" and we'll discuss it in the Forms WG next year when we pick up again. > Happy Holidays, Ian, Anne, and all. > > Leigh. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Ian Hickson [mailto:ian@hixie.ch] > Sent: Wednesday, December 16, 2009 11:54 AM > To: Klotz, Leigh > Cc: Anne van Kesteren; WebApps WG; Forms WG > Subject: RE: XMLHttpRequest Comments from W3C Forms WG > > On Wed, 16 Dec 2009, Klotz, Leigh wrote: >> >> Therefore, even in the light of the changes in details I've cited (and >> your kind corrections for my errors and outdated imformation), our >> request that you abstract out the dependencies on HTML5 into a >> separate document (perhaps part of the HTML5 family, perhaps not) still stands. > > This would be a colossal amount of work, for which we unfortunately do not have any volunteers. > > -- > Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL > http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,. > Things that are impossible just take longer. `._.-(,_..'--(,_..'`-.;.' > >
