If I understand this correctly, it is now proposed that the first document to be released will be the Design Principles, and that the HTML 5 draft specification will then be reviewed in the light of these design principles and any inconsistences between the Design Principles and the Draft Specification eliminated by adjustments to the latter. This will then be followed by a release of the as-amended Draft Specification for HMTL 5, together with a document summarising the differences between that draft specification and the latest specification for HTML 4.01. If this reading is correct, then I applaud this decision, with which I whole- heartedly concur. Philip Taylor
