I think the "principle of least surprise" implies the document at w3.org/TR/selectors-api/ should be gutted of all technical content and a reference to the DOM spec [DOM] (which supersede Selectors API) should be added (as well as a clear statement work on selectors-api has stopped and its features/APIs are superseded by [DOM]). However, I suspect the consortium's publication processes might not permit that. Xiaoqian, Yves - can we do as I suggest above? If not, what is your recommendation re making sure people understand work on selectors-api has stopped and it is superseded by [DOM]? -Thanks, AB [DOM] http://www.w3.org/TR/dom/
