Hi Dave, This is essentially what I asked for, so I'm satisfied. Two nits though: - "as time of writing" should probably be "at the time of writing". - There's still a reference to ruby in the Schematron schema in appendix D.

There are ongoing discussions about the ruby model in HTML5. Once these discussions are settled, in a subsequent version of ITS, the ruby data category may be re-introduced." > > Please inidicate if you are satisfied with the response.
