Ya ya yawm TAG!

I'm requesting a TAG review of HTML Review Draft — Published 18 January 2021.

The WHATWG published a new Review Draft of the HTML Standard on 18 January 2021. The HTML WG plans to take the latest Review Draft to W3C Recommendation in September, thus we are inviting another wide and horizontal review of the commits of the HTML Standard between Jan 2020 and Jan 2021.

Further details:

  • Relevant time constraints or deadlines: 2021-08-24
  • The group where the work on this specification is currently being done: WHATWG and W3C HTML WG
  • The group where standardization of this work is intended to be done (if current group is a community group or other incubation venue): WHATWG and W3C HTML WG
  • This work is being funded by: WHATWG and W3C

We put together a list of significant changes, please pay attention to these pull requests during your group discussion:

Hi @siusin, apologies for the late reply. We understand this is widely implemented by now, and we have confidence in the WHATWG that all of the features have been adequately vetted so we are going to close this.

Furthermore, after discussing this in a breakout today (present: @cynthia @rhiaro and me) we do not think it's productive to do such large reviews, at such a late stage. They demand a lot of resources, but it's too late for the effort to make a meaningful difference. Please instead ask for reviews of individual features earlier, before they are so widely implemented.
