Per the process guidelines in the HTML WG decision-policy document[1], that means anybody is free to reopen if they disagree with that resolution, and to add a comment explaining why. [1] http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html#basic Here is the Rationale section of the comment I added for the status change: In its current form, the H:TML document would not seem to me to be the optimal place to publish a schema. I think the group needs to first consider the larger question of whether it should publish a schema or set of schemas at all, and if so, what exactly to publish -- and then consider how/where to publish it. I think discussion of what kind of schema or set of schemas (e.g., RelaxNG plus Schematron plus whatever else) to publish, and how to publish it, should be raised either as a new bug or as an HTML WG Tracker issue. --Mike -- Michael(tm) Smith http://people.w3.org/mike
