We've gone through the spec and reviewed every instance of "element", and think we've fixed all of the element/box confusion. Please let us know if we missed anything, or if anything doesn't make sense. (There's still a latent box/fragment confusion in the spec, but for now Flexbox doesn't define fragmentation behavior, so that's moot - every box generates only a single fragment.) ~TJ and fantasaiReceived on Wednesday, 12 February 2014 01:22:24 UTC
