Is that the intention? If not, please clarify the Change Proposal to state what, or at least, *where* the normative conformance requirements for documents claiming to conform to HTML5 would be. (A statement of the form: "HTML5 documents would be required to conform to forthcoming W3C Recommendation Z" would work as clarification.) If possible, please provide replacement text for section 4.8.1.1, which makes references to the sections the CP proposes to remove. -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis
