RE: [css-tables] Editorial: General Comments

Thanks again fantasai for the review. Here is the "disposition of comments" :-)


=======================================================================
> 1. “layouted” is not a word. The past tense of the verb “lay out” is “laid out”.

Oh no, I thought the official approval to make up new words came pre-packaged with joining the csswg, I am disappointed ;-) 

I reluctantly fixed it, though :-)


=======================================================================
> 2. A table-root element is said to be <dfn>layouted in collapsed-borders mode</dfn>

Mostly fixed. The prose could be simplified further but that will do, for now.


=======================================================================
> 3. CSS layout operates on boxes, not elements. 

Uh, yeah. Fixed.


=======================================================================
> 4. The format for defining values of a CSS property is
    <dl dfn-for="property-name" dfn-type="value">
      <dt><dfn>value</dfn>
      <dd>...

      <dt><dfn>other-value</dfn>
      <dd>...
    </dl>

Where do you think this applies? Caption-sides?


=======================================================================
> 5. Invalid use of “may” 

Fixed. That is a text copy-pasted from CSS 2.1 though, you might want to fix the source.

That's all for now
