Hi,

I agree with Kenny: giving a list of differences *between your proposal 
and the current editor’s draft* would help a lot those who have been 
following the discussion here.

This blog post is nice, but for another audience. It compares to 
preprocessor variables, describes use-cases and gives arguments in favor 
of your proposal; but barely touches the previous draft. Some parts of 
the post apply equally to the draft, others are in opposition. There is 
no help to know which.

What would help *here* is more like a summary of the output for a `diff` 
command. Many of use here have carefully read the draft. Could you save 
us the trouble to do the diff in our heads? (Such mental-diffing is very 
tedious and error prone, at least for me. I routinely miss important 
points when comparing CSS3 modules to the matching parts of CSS 2.1)

(Side note: I find using color for emphasis confusing, especially on 
whole paragraphs at a time. I had to view-source to find <strong> and 
see that this meant emphasis.)

Regards,
