Summary: Conformance to HTML should not have versions. Rationale: As previously resolved HTML is a language without versions. Introducing versions for conformance goes against this idea and will give the impression there is a difference between an "HTML5 conforming document" and an "HTML6 conforming document". The suggestion in the Change Proposal that applicable specifications could define their own terms will lead to a myriad of definitions related to HTML conformance and will not make the situation any clearer than simply using what is there today. Details: No change. Impact: By not introducing versions in HTML conformance we keep it clear HTML does not use versions and we prevent the need to introduce lots of definitions around HTML conformance. -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/
