Paul, I was wondering whether you might give me an update on the status of this? I followed some of the links from your ACTION-190 [1]; as best I can tell it was put off for a week on 6 January 2011 [2], and then I lose the trail. This is about getting the author-only view back into the HTML5 Rec-track publication packages. I have TAG ACTION 379, which is basically to make sure this happens eventually, so it would be helpful to know where this stands. Thank you very much.
