Re: Prototype of simple tool for converting HTML5 into XHTML+ITS

Hi Jirka,

thanks a lot.

One feedback: I think the tools currently doesn't convert global rules -
would it make sense to add a template to convert the "link" element with
type "its-rules" to an its:rules element? That wouldn't be valid HTML5
anymore, but a non validating ITS processor could process the files as is.
We could also say the process should be aware of link with "its-rules".
What's better?

Best,

Felix
