 <div class="introductory section" id="abstract"><h2>Abstract</h2>A 
-document that uses polyglot markup is an HTML5 document which is at the 
-same time an XML document and an HTML document, and which meets a well 
-defined set of constraints. 
-Polyglot markup that meets these constraints as interpreted as 
-compatible, regardless of whether they are processed as HTML or as 
-XHTML, per the HTML5 specification. 
+document that uses polyglot markup is document that is a stream of bytes
+ that parses into identical document trees (with the exception of the 
+xmlns attribute on the root element) when processed as HTML and when 
+processed as XML.
+Polyglot markup that meets a well defined set of constraints is 
+interpreted as compatible, regardless of whether they are processed as 
+HTML or as XHTML, per the HTML5 specification. 
 Polyglot markup uses a specific DOCTYPE, namespace declarations, and a 
 specific case—normally lower case but occasionally camel case—for 
 element and attribute names.
