<ul>
- <li>The use of the DOM as a basis for defining the language.</li>
-
- <li>The concept of browsing contexts.</li>
-
- <li>The distinction between user agent requirements and authoring
- requirements.</li>
-
- <li>The use of imperative definitions rather than abstract definitions
- with the requirement of black-box equivalence in implementations.</li>
-
- <li>The new content model concepts (replacing HTML 4's block and
- inline concepts).</li>
-
- <li>The focus on accessibility as a built-in concept for new features
- (such as the <code>irrelevant</code> attribute, the
- <code>progress</code> element, et cetera) instead of an add-on (like
- the <code>alt</code> attribute).</li>
-
- <li>The focus on defining the semantics in detail (e.g. the outline
- algorithm, replacing the vague semantics in HTML 4).</li>
-
- <li>The server-sent events feature (the <code>event-source</code>
- element).</li>
-
- <li>The <code>datagrid</code> element.</li>
-
- <li>The <code>menu</code> and <code>command</code> elements.</li>
-
- <li>The origin concept.</li>
-
- <li>Offline Web application caches.</li>
-
- <li>The definition of the browsing context "navigation" algorithm and
- the related session history traversal algorithms.</li>
-
- <li>The content-type sniffing and character encoding sniffing.</li>
-
- <li>The very explicit definition of a parser.</li>
-
- <li>The two structured storage features.</li>
-
- <li>The <code>contentEditable</code> feature and the
- <code>UndoManager</code> feature.</li>
-
- <li>The Drag and Drop and Copy and Paste architecture.</li>
-
- <li>The cross-document messaging feature (the
- <code>postMessage</code> API).</li>
-
- <li>The new sandboxing features for <code>iframe</code>.</li>
+ <li>Implementation and authoring details around the <code>ping</code>
+ attribute have changed.
+ </li><li><code><meta http-equiv=content-type></code> is now a
+ conforming way to set the character encoding.</li>
+ <li>API for the <code>canvas</code> element has been cleaned up. Text
+ support has been added.
+ </li><li><code>globalStorage</code> is now restricted to the same-origin
+ policy and renamed to <code>localStorage</code>. Related event
+ dispatching has been clarified.
+ </li><li><code>postMessage()</code> API changed. Only the origin of the
+ message is exposed, no longer the URI. It also requires a second
+ argument that indicates the origin of the target document.
+ </li><li>Drag and drop API has got clarification. The
+ <code>dataTransfer</code> object now has a <code>types</code>
+ attribute indicating the type of data being transferred.
+ </li><li>The <code>m</code> element is now called <code>mark</code>.
+ </li><li>Server-sent events has changed and gotten clarification. It uses a
+ new format so that older implementations are not broken.
+ </li><li>The <code>figure</code> element no longer requires a caption.
+ </li><li>The <code>ol</code> element has a new <code>reversed</code>
+ attribute.
+ </li><li>Character encoding detection has changed in response to feedback.
+ </li><li>Various changes have been made to the HTML parser section in
+ response to implementation feedback.
+ </li><li>Various changes to the editing section have been made, including
+ adding <code>queryCommandEnabled()</code> and related methods.
+ </li><li>The <code>headers</code> attribute has been added for
+ <code>td</code> elements.
+ </li><li>The <code>table</code> element has a new <code>createTBody()</code>
+ method.
+ </li><li>MathML support has been added to the HTML parser section. (SVG
+ support is still awaiting input from the SVG WG.)
+ </li><li>Author defined attributes have been added. Authors can add
+ attributes to elements in the form of
+ <code>data-<var>name</var></code> and can access these through the DOM
+ using <code>dataset[<var>name</var>]</code> on the element in question.
+ </li><li>The <code>q</code> element has changed to require punctation inside
+ rather than having the browser render it.
+ </li><li>The <code>target</code> attribute can now have the value
+ <code>_blank</code>.
+ </li><li>The <code>showModalDialog</code> API has been added.
+ </li><li>The <code>document.domain</code> API has been defined.
+ </li><li>The <code>source</code> element now has a new
+ <code>pixelratio</code> attribute useful for videos that have some kind
+ encoding error.
+ </li><li><code>bufferedBytes</code>, <code>totalBytes</code> and
+ <code>bufferingThrottled</code> DOM attributes have been added to the
+ <code>video</code> element.
+ </li><li>Media <code>begin</code> event has been renamed to
+ <code>loadstart</code> for consistency with the Progress Events
+ specification.
+ </li><li><code>charset</code> attribute has been added to
+ <code>script</code>.
+ </li><li>The <code>iframe</code> element has gained the <code>sandbox</code>
+ and <code>seamless</code> attributes which provide sandboxing
+ functionality.
+ </li><li>The <code>ruby</code>, <code>rt</code> and <code>rp</code>
+ elements have been added to support ruby annotation.
+ </li><li>A <code>showNotification()</code> method has been added to show
+ notification messages to the user.
+ </li><li>Support for <code>beforeprint</code> and <code>afterprint</code>
+ events has been added.</li>
