This specification defines markup for ruby. The > specification is written so that this markup for ruby can be included as > a module of XHTML 1.1. > > Status of This Document > ----------------------- > > The W3C Internationalization Working Group (I18N WG), with this 17 > December 1999 Last Call Working Draft, invites comment on this > specification. The Last Call period begins 17 December 1999 and ends 14 > January 2000. > > This is a W3C Working Draft for review by W3C members and other > interested parties. It is a draft document and may be updated, replaced, > or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to use > W3C Working Drafts as reference material or to cite them as other than > "work in progress". The W3C will not allow early implementation to > constrain its ability to make changes to this specification prior to > final release. A list of current W3C Recommendations and other technical > documents can be found at http://www.w3.org/TR. > > After last call comments have been addressed, the Working Group expects > to advance this specification to Candidate Recommendation, and then to > Proposed Recommendation together with XHTML 1.1, into which it will be > included by reference. While the actual markup structure will not be > changed at that point in the process, the I18N WG and the editors will > make the necessary technical adjustments in notation if such adjustments > become necessary as a consequence of changes to XHTML 1.1. > > Please send comments and questions regarding this document to > (i18n-editor@w3.org). Comments in languages other than English, in > particular Japanese, are also welcome. Public discussion on this > specification may take place on the mailing list > (www-international@w3.org). > > Due to its subject matter, and to make the examples more realistic, this > document includes examples using a wide range of characters. Not all > user agents may be able to display all characters, changing the > configuration can improve the situation. Also, great care has been taken > to serve this document in various character encodings to cover a wide > range of user agents and configurations. > > Misha Wolf, W3C I18N WG chair > > [This mail was written using voice recognition software] > > > ----------------------------------------------------------------- Visit our Internet site at http://www.reuters.com Any views expressed in this message are those of the individual sender, except where the sender specifically states them to be the views of Reuters Ltd.
