Ms2ger, Last September, some obsolescence text was added to the DOM 2 Views REC: [[ http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Views/#notice-20110922 http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-DOM-Level-2-Views-20001113/ *Document Status Update 2011-09-22*: This paragraph is informative. The concepts this document defines are obsolete. The 'document' and 'defaultView' attributes are defined in the HTML5 <http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/> specification with simplified semantics. The Web Applications Working Group <http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/> encourages implementation of these concepts as defined by HTML5. ]] I think the proponents for adding obsolescence text to the other RECs should make a specific proposal for each REC. -AB On 1/23/12 4:01 AM, ext Ms2ger wrote: > Hi all, > > The recent message to www-dom about DOM2HTML [1] made me realize that > we still haven't added warnings to obsolete DOM specifications to > hopefully avoid that people use them as a reference. > > I propose that we add a pointer to the contemporary specification to > the following specifications: > > * DOM 2 Core (DOM4) > * DOM 2 Views (HTML) > * DOM 2 Events (D3E) > * DOM 2 Style (CSSOM) > * DOM 2 Traversal and Range (DOM4) > * DOM 2 HTML (HTML) > * DOM 3 Core (DOM4) > > and a recommendation against implementing the following specifications: > > * DOM 3 Load and Save > * DOM 3 Validation > > Hearing no objections, I'll try to move this forward. > > Ms2ger > > [1] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-dom/2012JanMar/0011.html >
