http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=12181 Summary: The text in 4.12.4.17.1 conflicts with existing practice, older (e.g. HTML 4) descriptions, and the brief summary in the table at the start of 4.12.4, where "index" is described thusly: "Gives a link to the document that provides a table of contents or in Product: HTML WG Version: unspecified Platform: Other URL: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#lin k-type-index OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: HTML5 spec (editor: Ian Hickson) AssignedTo: ian@hixie.ch ReportedBy: contributor@whatwg.org QAContact: public-html-bugzilla@w3.org CC: mike@w3.org, public-html-wg-issue-tracking@w3.org, public-html@w3.org Specification: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/links.html Section: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#link-type-index Comment: The text in 4.12.4.17.1 conflicts with existing practice, older (e.g. HTML 4) descriptions, and the brief summary in the table at the start of 4.12.4, where "index" is described thusly: "Gives a link to the document that provides a table of contents or index listing the current document". Please let rel="index" mean just an index, rel="toc" a table of content (quite different in practice and in theory!), and "top" the main page of a site (a very common link type). The keyword "contents" should be treated as an obsolete synonym for "toc" (or vice versa, really a matter of taste, just make some decision).
