Following are substantive comments on section 1, "About the CSS 2.1
Specification" (<http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-CSS21-20020802/about.html>),
of the Cascading Style Sheets level 2.1 draft
(<http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-CSS21-20020802>).



1.4.3 Shorthand properties


"Some properties are shorthand properties, meaning they allow authors to
specify the values of several properties with a single property."

Change the final "property" to "declaration".


"For instance, the 'font' property is a shorthand property for setting
'font-style', 'font-variant', 'font-weight', 'font-size', 'line-height',
and 'font-family' all at once."

Add 'font-size-adjust' and 'font-stretch' to the list.


"The multiple style rules of this example"
...
"may be rewritten with a single shorthand property"

Change to "The declarations in this example" and to "may be rewritten with
a declaration for a single shorthand property", respectively.


"In this example, 'font-variant', and 'font-style' take their initial values."

Add 'font-size-adjust' and 'font-stretch' to the list.
