I can do that, but I thought Formal Objections normally came after a publication, and the HTML 5 spec is still only a Working Draft. But I could see how the vote was _a_ decision, and so a FO now would also be appropriate. Sam, which do you want me to do? FO or Issues, and when? I want to make sure that what I do is done appropriately. Shelley
