However <b>, <i> and <u> /are/ purely presentational, and the fact that the draft specification misrepresents this is a matter of considerable concern and regret. I for one will be seeking to ensure that this is corrected in a future draft, and that the <b> and <i> elements do not appear in the specification when it is finally released.
