On 24 May 2018, the CSS WG published an updated Candidate Recommendation of CSS Writing Modes Level 3 and an initial Candidate Recommendation of CSS Writing Modes Level 4: https://www.w3.org/TR/css-writing-modes-3/ https://www.w3.org/TR/css-writing-modes-4/ CSS Writing Modes defines CSS support for various international writing modes, such as left-to-right (e.g. Latin or Indic), right-to-left (e.g. Hebrew or Arabic), bidirectional (e.g. mixed Latin and Arabic) and vertical (e.g. Asian scripts). This is a minor update to Level 3 to correctly handle 'max-height' (in addition to 'height') when calculating auto sizes of orthogonal flows: https://www.w3.org/TR/2018/CR-css-writing-modes-3-20180524/#changes-201712 Level 4 is the same as the Level 3 draft, except that it includes several features that were dropped from the Level 3 CR due to lack of implementation: * 'sideways-lr' and 'sideways-rl' values of the 'writing-mode' property * 'digits' value of 'text-combine-upright' * multi-column handling of orthogonal block containers This publication maintains its synchronization with Level 3 (and issues an official CR transition; we had to wait a bit after FPWD to request the transition). Please review the drafts, and send any comments to this mailing list, <www-style@w3.org>, prefixed with [css-writing-modes] (as I did on this message) or (preferably) file them in the GitHub repository at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues For the CSS WG, ~fantasai
