So we would add the defaults in the specifications for Element Within Text, (since Language Information and Id Value are already there), and just have a note stating why no defaults are defined for Translate (attribute and elements, not just attribute). And, I suppose this is where Felix' idea of referencing a wiki page would play, we could add a pointer to the page in the ITS-IG wiki that define the temporary best guess we have for Translate at this time. As for HTML5 vs XHTML5: I'd say our defaults would apply to both. But we don't mention anything below that because they are out of scope. > So when an ITS processors processing "within text", not having > any "within text" rules or inlne markup, consumes a DOM and sees > a "span" element in the HTML namespace - what "within text" > property should it assume? withinText='yes': Our defaults would apply to HTML5 and its XHTML representation. -ys
