    The CSS WG has published an updated Working Draft of the CSS Text Module Level 3:
         https://www.w3.org/TR/css-text-3/
    
    This module contains various typesetting properties not related to font
    selection, such as alignment, line breaking, white space collapsing,
    text justification, and other forms of text-level spacing adjustments.
    
    Most changes since the November 2019 draft are minor fixes. However there is 
    one major change to the segment break transformation rules: they have been 
    redrafted against an explicit list of Unicode code blocks rather than a set of 
    property intersection rules based off of the East Asian Width property.
    
    This is change is for two reasons: 1. Unicode modified EAW in a 
    backwards-incompatible way, yielding much weirder results for this operation 
    than previously and 2. based on implementation feedback, we needed a much 
    simpler rule that would be fast to implement since this operation is hot. The 
    WD now contains an initial draft of the new approach, see:
       https://www.w3.org/TR/css-text-3/#line-break-transform

    and
       https://www.w3.org/TR/css-text-3/#space-discard-set

    
    Please review the draft, and send any comments to the CSSWG mailing list,
    <www-style@w3.org>, prefixed with [css-text-3] (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,
