I doubt much WG members have actually read HTML4 completely. The high-level changes for people familiar with HTML4 are mentioned here (not exhaustive enough, see talk page): http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/Changes_from_HTML4 In due course, however, I would expect that everyone knows the document the group will be working on. At least the parts he/she is interested in. And will follow the changes made to the document through some tracker: http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker http://twitter.com/WHATWG The idea of the HTML5 proposal is to effectively replace HTML4, XHTML1 and DOM2HTML with something (substantially) better. Not to update them. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>
