[CSSWG][css-ruby] New Working Draft of CSS Ruby Level 1

The CSS WG has published a Working Draft of the CSS Ruby Module Level 1:

     http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-ruby/

This module describes the rendering model and formatting controls related
to displaying ruby annotations in CSS.

The new draft extends the model to handle HTML5 ruby markup, and adds
details on box generation, layout, alignment and justification, white
space handling, line breaking, and various other details.

In addition, the CSS properties offering control over ruby layout
have been reduced, simplified, and aligned better with existing CSS
controls in other layout models.

Comments are welcome on all aspects of this draft. As it's a rather
radical rewrite of the old spec, this is essentially a "first" draft
of the CSS Ruby model, and we would appreciate feedback on the
correctness and reasonableness of all the newly-specified details.

Significant changes since the somewhat ancient 2003 version are
listed at:

   http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-css3-ruby-20130919/#changes

Please send any comments to the archived mailing list, <www-style@w3.org>,
and please, prefix the subject line with

     [css-ruby]

(as I did on this message).

For the CSS WG,
