Hi Everyone, As discussed at today's F2F meeting, we'd like the HTML WG to consider the following preface language for "Status of This Document": This document summarizes design guidelines for authors who wish their XHTML or HTML documents to validate on either HTML or XML parsers. This specification is intended to be used by web authors, particularly authors who want to serve receivers which may have either (but not both) XML or HTML parsers available. This commonly arises in legacy systems and content syndication. Polyglot is one of several transition mechanisms from legacy XML to HTML5 and this document serves to describe it accurately. No recommendation is made in this document or by the W3C regarding whether or not to publish polyglot content. In general, authors are encouraged to publish HTML content using HTML5 syntax and media types (either HTML syntax and text/html, or XHTML syntax andapplication/xhtml+xml This document is not a specification for user agents and creates no obligations on user agents. Note that this recommendation does not define how HTML5-conforming user agents should process HTML documents. Nor does it define the meaning of the Internet Media Type text/html. For user agent guidance and for these definitions, see [HTML5] and [RFC2854].
