  stable. <strong>Implementors who are not taking part in the

  implementing this specification before it eventually reaches the
  Candidate Recommendation stage should join the aforementioned

  Draft does not imply that all of the participants in the W3C HTML
  working group endorse the contents of the specification. Indeed, for
  any section of the specification, one can usually find many members
  of the working group or of the W3C as a whole who object strongly to
  the current text, the existence of the section at all, or the idea
  that the working group should even spend time discussing the concept
