"Breaking backwards compatibility was failure reason number 1 for XHTML2. Let's do it again..." I do not believe that XHTML has failed in the slightest I am in fact looking forward to it. And how is it even breaking backward compatibility. Either your writing in XHTML 1, 1.1, or 2 they should behave differently and accordingly. As should all HTML variants. I would even be in favour of a css type declaration. <style type="text/css2.1" media=all"></style> Barry Rader Daniel Glazman wrote: > > fantasai wrote: >> Paul Nelson (ATC) wrote: >>>> So please, do the world a favor... break backward compatibility!!! >>> >>> I listed to a Chevron representative at the W3C Plenary who stood up >>> and said, "We have over 100,000 users using systems based on the web. >>> Please don't break backward compatibility." >> >> It was Boeing, actually, not Chevron. > > I confirm, Boeing. > > Breaking backwards compatibility was failure reason number 1 for > XHTML2.
