The subject says flexbox, but if tables can cover the use cases please discuss there: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2013Mar/0557.html > The prose in the specification has since changed and I agree that it's > too complex.

Since January 2012, I have written about this to this list several times, proposed a replacement algorithm, made a few iterations on it, edited it in the spec, and published an updated WD with it. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2012Jan/0441.html http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2012Jun/0184.html http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2012Jul/0036.html http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2013Mar/0255.html http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-css3-page-20130314/#variable-sizing In all this time, you, an editor of this module, never gave any response. Now, could you please stop pretending that none of this happened, focus on what’s in the ED, and maybe help improve it? Sincerely, -- Simon Sapin
