I pointed to public > statements of intent from three major vendors. That's all. My point was that nothing in those documents tells us about the big picture regarding the intent of those major vendors with respect to XHTML2 or HTML5 (other than that they made intellectual property available to this WG as do we all). So I would still say that we members of the HTML WG (humble or otherwise) could not possibly know the intent of the browser vendors regarding XHTML2 support". Certainly the citations you provided change nothing about that. Take care, Rob
