Given the way that the full spec is written, it will not be considered authoritative regardless of what is in the front matter. If the author-only view is authoritative, then there will be pressure to both keep it in sync with the larger spec and keep the work at W3C. If the author-only view is not authoritative, then there is no need for it to be in sync with a larger spec that nobody implements -- it will be replaced by documents that accurately describe HTML as implemented. > > The author-only view is generated from the same source file as the > main spec, so no additional pressure is needed to keep it in sync with > the larger spec. > ...
