Hi, I think it would be very helpful if the W3C created a document for HTML (and it's related specifications from the WAWG) on "How to read a specification". There could be two sections: one for browser implementors and one for developers. For every part of the spec (including the APIs), link to this document, as well as to any mirrored documents being maintained for that spec (or section) that are written specifically for developers rather than implementors. And I'd like to see links from the "How to read" document to any other helpful documents (like the Web IDL spec, tutorials, etc). What do you think? I would find it incredibly helpful, especially given how much more formalized the specs have become and because they are written for implementors rather than developers (in general). And certainly those new to reading the specs, and new to HTML, CSS, and JavaScript would benefit from this. Elisabeth
