CfC: return HTML 5.0 to Last Call

In accordance with Plan 2014[1]:

      We think it is likely that the Working Group will make substantive
      changes to the document as a result of Candidate Recommendation
      Review. Therefore, in accordance with the W3C Process, we will
      return to a short Last Call before requesting to advance to
      Proposed Recommendation.

the HTML Chairs are issuing a Call for Consensus to return HTML 5.0 to 
Last Call.  The document can be found here:

      http://htmlwg.org/heartbeat/WD-html5-20140617/

Silence will be taken to mean there is no objection, but positive 
responses are encouraged. If there are no objections by Friday June 
13th, this resolution will carry.

The proposed Last Call Working Draft states:

      The scope of Last Call feedback on this specification is limited to
      changes that have taken place during the Candidate Recommendation
      phase[2]. The Last Call period is expected to finish on 15 July
      2014. Once Last Call comments are addressed, the Working Group
      expects to advance this draft to Proposed Recommendation.

Note that some features marked as at risk in the current Candidate 
Recommendation were removed[3].  The following features remain in the 
draft at this time but may be removed due to lack of implementation:

      the DataCue interface;
      <input type=time>;
      drag and drop;
      the new ruby model.

on behalf of the HTML WG co-chairs
