[css3-2d-transforms] New WD of CSS 2D Transforms

The CSS WG published a new draft of the CSS 2D Transforms Module 
level 3:

    http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/WD-css3-2d-transforms-20091201

The 'transform' property applies a geometric transformation to a box, 
e.g., to rotate or mirror it. Transformations can either influence the 
layout (the transformed box doesn't overlap other boxes) or be applied 
after layout (a generalization of relative positioning).

(In principle, only the former is needed, but we don't know yet if it is 
too difficult to implement. See the first issue in the draft itself.)

Changes since the previous draft are minor. Basically, only the CSSOM 
APIs have changed. The draft links to a ChangeLog[1] with the details.

As usual, comments are welcome. Please, send them to this mailing list, 
<www-style@w3.org>. If you add

    [css3-2d-transforms]

at the start of the subject line (like on this message), it will be 
easier for the editors to find your comments.
