[I am moving this to www-qa, which focus is closer to the topic. qa- dev is for (mostly tech) discussion on tools development] Hello Alexandre.

I agree. Many specifications have an "errata" link from their status section when they have reached recommendation maturity level. e.g http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/ see also http://www.w3.org/TR/#Recommendations Others, while the spec is still work in progress, link to a list of known issues e:g http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-xinclude-20000717#open-issues I am not aware of a written rule that forces working group to have such links. That could be a suggestion to greatly enhance 1) the QA process for the specs and 2) the messaging that there *is* a quality process... Karl, this is worth taking to the chairs, no? -- olivier
