This include objections to publishing this draft as normative and objections to not publishing this draft as normative. No one seems to object to publishing the draft at all. In the end, the addition of the following text to the Status of the Document section seems to address all of the conditional objections: > > "This document is an automated redaction of the full HTML5 specification. As such, the two documents are supposed to agree on normative matters concerning Web authors. However, if the documents disagree, this is a bug in the redaction process and the unredacted full HTML specification takes precedence. Readers are encouraged to report such discrepancies as bugs in the bug tracking system of the HTML WG." Surely this doesn't include differences where the full HTML5 specification defines behavior where the Web Authors document leaves behavior undefined, right? As that will be quite common given the large amount of normative text which only appears in the full specification. The above text does not address how such differences should be handled. / Jonas
