The CSS WG has published an updated Working Draft of the CSS Display Module Level 3: http://www.w3.org/TR/css-display-3/ CSS Display describes how the CSS formatting box tree is generated from the document element tree and defines properties that control the types of boxes thus generated. As usual, significant changes since the last draft are listed at: http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/WD-css-display-3-20150721/#changes This latest draft removes the longhands of 'display', so that we can syntactically disallow certain combinations that are unnecessarily difficult to implement at this point in time (e.g. table cell flex containers), while allowing for future expansion. It also establishes new syntax for defining inline boxes, inline-block boxes, block boxes, and block-level block formatting context roots: http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/WD-css-display-3-20150721/#the-display-properties See discussion at https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2015May/0119.html Lastly, we improved the glossary and introduction to better define key terms such as the box tree: http://www.w3.org/TR/css-display-3/#intro http://www.w3.org/TR/css-display-3/#glossary We welcome review of the spec, and in particular we'd love to have feedback on the box-suppress issues: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display-3/#box-suppress and run-in issues: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display-3/#run-in as at this point sufficient feedback on these is what's blocking the spec! Please send any comments to this mailing list, <www-style@w3.org>, and please, prefix the subject line with [css-display] (as I did on this message). For the CSS WG, ~fantasai
