If not, then I don't understand what the CG > would be doing?? I encourage discussion about what the CG will be doing to go to the mailing lists that are provided for that purpose: they are listed in the top right of the following page: http://www.w3.org/community/whatwg/ Of course, people are welcome to provide brief announcements and occasional pointers on this list to relevant discussions that occur elsewhere. I also encourage people to read the FAQ that was prepared. In particular Q5g: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/html5-stabilization-plan.html#Q5g > Leonard - Sam Ruby
