Call for Review: CSS Color Module Level 3 is a W3C Proposed Recommendation

   15 March 2018
   <https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/6906>

   The CSS Working Group has published a Proposed Recommendation of "CSS Color Module Level 3." CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a language for describing the rendering of HTML and XML documents on screen, on paper, in speech, etc. It uses color-related properties and values to color the text, backgrounds, borders, and other parts of elements in a document. This specification describes color values and properties for foreground color and group opacity. These include properties and values from CSS level 2 and new values.

   Comments are welcome through 12 April 2018.

W3C Invites Implementations of the CSS Fonts Module Level 3

   15 March 2018
   <https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/6904>

   The CSS Working Group invites implementations of an updated Candidate Recommendation of "CSS Fonts Module Level 3." This CSS3 module describes how font properties are specified and how font resources are loaded dynamically. The contents of this specification are a consolidation of content previously divided into "CSS3 Fonts" and "CSS3 Web Fonts" modules. The description of font load events was moved into the CSS Font Loading module.
