[CSSWG][css-flexbox] Updated Last Call Working Draft of CSS Flexible Box Layout

The CSS WG has published an updated Last Call Working Draft of the
CSS Flexible Box Layout Module Level 1:

   http://www.w3.org/TR/css-flexbox-1/

This is an update to fix errors found in the March 2014 LCWD and
to fix various other problems found through implementation review.
Exact diff-marked changes, and their justifications, are available
in the changes section:
   http://www.w3.org/TR/2014/WD-css-flexbox-1-20140925/#changes
A Disposition of Comments is also available:
   http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-flexbox-1/issues-lc-20140325

This spec is fairly complex, and we strongly encourage everyone to
review the changes and send comments. We have documented said
changes in excruciating detail to facilitate such review! The Last
Call comment period ends **25 October 2014** (so that we can process
your comments at TPAC!)

Please send your comments to this mailing list, <www-style@w3.org>,
and please, prefix the subject line with

     [css-flexbox]

(as I did on this message).

Note: This module is still in the Call for Implementations phase;
LC is being used as "Proposed Edited Candidate Recommendation"
per the 2005 W3C Process. Implementation is encouraged, and
feature requests will be deferred to the next level.

Flexbox is a new layout model for CSS. The contents of a flex
container can be laid out in any direction, can be reordered,
can be aligned and justified within their container, and can
"flex" their sizes and positions to respond to the available
space. We expect this model to be particularly useful for UI
layouts.

For the CSS WG,
