+ of revisions and experienced a number of extensions, primarily
+ hosted first at CERN, and then at the IETF.</p><p>With the creation of the W3C, HTML's development changed venue
+ again. A first abortive attempt at extending HTML in 1995 known as
+ HTML 3.0 then made way to a more pragmatic approach known as HTML
+ 3.2, which was completed in 1997. HTML4 followed, reaching
+ completion in 1998.</p><p>At this time, the W3C membership decided to stop evolving HTML
+ and instead begin work on an XML-based equivalent, called
+ XHTML. This effort started with a reforumlation of HTML4 in XML,
+ known as XHTML 1.0, which added no new features except the new
+ serialization, and which was completed in 2000. After XHTML 1.0, the
+ W3C's focus turned to making it easier for other working groups to
+ extend XHTML, under the banner of XHTML Modularization. In parallel
+ with this, the W3C also worked on a new language that was no
+ compatible with the earlier HTML and XHTML languages, calling it
+ XHTML2.</p><p>Around the time that HTML's evolution was stopped in 1998, parts
+ of the API for HTML developed by browsers were specified and
+ published under the name DOM Level 1 (in 1998) and DOM Core Level 2
+ and DOM HTML Level 2 (starting in 2000 and culminating in
+ 2003). These efforts then petered out, with some DOM Level 3
+ specifications published in 2004 but the working group being closed
+ before all the Level 3 drafts were published.</p><p>In 2003, the publication of XForms, a technology which was
+ positioned as the next generation of Web forms, sparked a renewed
+ interest in evolving HTML itself, rather than finding replacements
+ for it. This interest was borne from the realization that XML's
+ deployment as a Web technology was limited to entirely new
+ technologies (like RSS and later Atom), rather than as a replacement
+ for existing deployed technologies (like HTML).</p><p>A proof of concept to show that it was possible to extend HTML4's
+ forms to provide many of the features that XForms 1.0 introduced,
+ without requiring browsers to implement rendering engines that were
+ incompatible with existing HTML Web pages, was the first result of
+ this renewed interest. At this early stage, while the draft was
+ already publicly available, and input was already being solicited
+ from all sources, the specification was only under Opera Software's
+ copyright.</p><p>The idea that HTML's evolution should be reopened was tested at a
+ W3C workshop in 2004, where some of the principles that underlie the
+ HTML5 work (described below), as well as the aforementioned early
+ draft proposal covering just forms-related features, were presented
+ to the W3C jointly by Mozilla and Opera. The proposal was rejected
+ on the grounds that the proposal conflicted with the previously
+ chosen direction for the Web's evolution; the W3C staff and
+ membership voted to continue developing XML-based replacements
+ instead.</p><p>Shortly thereafter, Apple, Mozilla, and Opera jointly announced
their intent to continue working on the effort. A public mailing
list was created, and the drafts were moved to the WHATWG site. The
copyright was subsequently amended to be jointly owned by all three
- vendors, and to allow reuse of the specifications.</p><p>In 2006, the W3C expressed interest in the specification, and
- created a working group chartered to work with the WHATWG on the
- development of the HTML5 specifications. The working group opened in
- 2007. Apple, Mozilla, and Opera allowed the W3C to publish the
- specifications under the W3C copyright, while keeping versions with
- the less restrictive license on the WHATWG site.</p><p>Since then, both groups have been working together.</p><h3 id=design-notes><span class=secno>1.5 </span>Design notes</h3><p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p><p>It must be admitted that many aspects of HTML appear at first
+ vendors, and to allow reuse of the specifications.</p><p>The WHATWG was based on several core principles, in particular
+ that technologies need to be backwards compatible, that
+ specifications and implementations need to match even if this means
+ changing the specification rather than the implementations, and that
+ specifications need to be detailed enough that implementations can
+ achieve complete interoperability without reverse-engineering each
+ other.</p><p>The latter requirement in particular required that the scope of
+ the HTML5 specification include what had previously been specified
+ in three separate documents: HTML4, XHTML1, and DOM2 HTML. It also
+ meant including significantly more detail than had previously been
+ included.</p><p>In 2006, the W3C indicated an interest to participate in the
+ development of HTML5 after all, and in 2007 formed a working group
+ chartered to work with the WHATWG on the development of the HTML5

+ of revisions and experienced a number of extensions, primarily
+ hosted first at CERN, and then at the IETF.</p><p>With the creation of the W3C, HTML's development changed venue
+ again. A first abortive attempt at extending HTML in 1995 known as
+ HTML 3.0 then made way to a more pragmatic approach known as HTML
+ 3.2, which was completed in 1997. HTML4 followed, reaching
+ completion in 1998.</p><p>At this time, the W3C membership decided to stop evolving HTML
+ and instead begin work on an XML-based equivalent, called
+ XHTML. This effort started with a reforumlation of HTML4 in XML,
+ known as XHTML 1.0, which added no new features except the new
+ serialization, and which was completed in 2000. After XHTML 1.0, the
+ W3C's focus turned to making it easier for other working groups to
+ extend XHTML, under the banner of XHTML Modularization. In parallel
+ with this, the W3C also worked on a new language that was no
+ compatible with the earlier HTML and XHTML languages, calling it
+ XHTML2.</p><p>Around the time that HTML's evolution was stopped in 1998, parts
+ of the API for HTML developed by browsers were specified and
+ published under the name DOM Level 1 (in 1998) and DOM Core Level 2
+ and DOM HTML Level 2 (starting in 2000 and culminating in
+ 2003). These efforts then petered out, with some DOM Level 3
+ specifications published in 2004 but the working group being closed
+ before all the Level 3 drafts were published.</p><p>In 2003, the publication of XForms, a technology which was
+ positioned as the next generation of Web forms, sparked a renewed
+ interest in evolving HTML itself, rather than finding replacements
+ for it. This interest was borne from the realization that XML's
+ deployment as a Web technology was limited to entirely new
+ technologies (like RSS and later Atom), rather than as a replacement
+ for existing deployed technologies (like HTML).</p><p>A proof of concept to show that it was possible to extend HTML4's
+ forms to provide many of the features that XForms 1.0 introduced,
+ without requiring browsers to implement rendering engines that were
+ incompatible with existing HTML Web pages, was the first result of
+ this renewed interest. At this early stage, while the draft was
+ already publicly available, and input was already being solicited
+ from all sources, the specification was only under Opera Software's
+ copyright.</p><p>The idea that HTML's evolution should be reopened was tested at a
+ W3C workshop in 2004, where some of the principles that underlie the
+ HTML5 work (described below), as well as the aforementioned early
+ draft proposal covering just forms-related features, were presented
+ to the W3C jointly by Mozilla and Opera. The proposal was rejected
+ on the grounds that the proposal conflicted with the previously
+ chosen direction for the Web's evolution; the W3C staff and
+ membership voted to continue developing XML-based replacements
+ instead.</p><p>Shortly thereafter, Apple, Mozilla, and Opera jointly announced
their intent to continue working on the effort. A public mailing
list was created, and the drafts were moved to the WHATWG site. The
copyright was subsequently amended to be jointly owned by all three
- vendors, and to allow reuse of the specifications.</p><p>In 2006, the W3C expressed interest in the specification, and
- created a working group chartered to work with the WHATWG on the
- development of the HTML5 specifications. The working group opened in
- 2007. Apple, Mozilla, and Opera allowed the W3C to publish the
- specifications under the W3C copyright, while keeping versions with
- the less restrictive license on the WHATWG site.</p><p>Since then, both groups have been working together.</p><h3 id="design-notes"><span class="secno">1.5 </span>Design notes</h3><p><i>This section is non-normative.</i></p><p>It must be admitted that many aspects of HTML appear at first
+ vendors, and to allow reuse of the specifications.</p><p>The WHATWG was based on several core principles, in particular
+ that technologies need to be backwards compatible, that
+ specifications and implementations need to match even if this means
+ changing the specification rather than the implementations, and that
+ specifications need to be detailed enough that implementations can
+ achieve complete interoperability without reverse-engineering each
+ other.</p><p>The latter requirement in particular required that the scope of
+ the HTML5 specification include what had previously been specified
+ in three separate documents: HTML4, XHTML1, and DOM2 HTML. It also
+ meant including significantly more detail than had previously been
+ included.</p><p>In 2006, the W3C indicated an interest to participate in the
+ development of HTML5 after all, and in 2007 formed a working group
+ chartered to work with the WHATWG on the development of the HTML5
+ specification. Apple, Mozilla, and Opera allowed the W3C to publish
