RE: WG Decision to remove Microdata from HTML 5.0, remove JS API, continue HTML Microdata as a separate spec

The original CfC stated:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-admin/2013Jul/0019.html

>Finally, as we don't have consensus on what to do with 5.1, we suggest that this work be allowed to proceed via editors' discretion for now."

Since no one objected to this element of the CfC,  the Chairs would like the Editorial team to decide/propose how to handle this in HTML 5.1.

I filed bug https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=22783 to capture this action.

This only applies to the CR draft, right-not to HTML5.1 nightly?

Subject: WG Decision to remove Microdata from HTML 5.0, remove JS API, continue HTML Microdata as a separate spec


No one objected to the CfC to remove Microdata from HTML 5.0, remove JS API, and to continue HTML Microdata as a separate spec by the Wed Jul 17 deadline.

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-admin/2013Jul/0019.html



Therefore, the HTML Working Group hereby resolves to handle the Microdata discussion as specified in the above referenced CfC.



The Editors are requested to carry out the directions of the CfC:



a) to remove all references to Microdata from the HTML 5.0 CR draft,

b) to remove the Javascript API from the Microdata spec, and

c) to publish the separate "HTML Microdata" document as an extension spec (iff editorial resources can be found).
