The spec is currently in the WebApps: http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/wiki/PubStatus My assumption is that unless someone objects to it being there (rather than HTML), it will stay. Microsoft co-edited the spec, and made a public statement of support here: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2012OctDec/0336.html Mozilla indicated they are looking at implementing here: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=17930#c3 There is an test suite included in this bug which adds to the existing html5lib test suite, which can later be merged back to w3c. >>> >>> We don’t typically require test suites to be available prior to >>> implementing it in WebKit or it be in the official HTML5 specification. >> >> I didnt' suggest it was.
