Re: Staged bugs & editorial fixes for HTML5.0, and staged WHATWG patches for HTML5.1

Hi Silvia,

unsure about this change in 5.1 Elaborate on <article> in one-article
documents...
https://github.com/w3c/html/commit/1f2ea9cb64042b8c52ed6761909107385e82690e

Will file a bug on it and create a suggested patch, taking into account the
use of <main> in this case.

regards
steve
