After discussion with PLH and Ian Jacobs, and I don't think it's
necessary for us to go through the additional overhead of rescinding
the DOM 2 View specification.
Instead, PLH and I support Anne's original proposal to simply update
the status section of the spec to point people to the HTML5 spec. We
could add wording like:
[[
Updated definitions of the 'document' and 'defaultView' attributes are
now defined by the HTML5 specification. Other concepts in this
specification may not be necessary for implementation in general user
agents such as Web browsers.
]]
I don't object to rescinding it, I simply prefer the option with the
least process necessary.
Anne, Ms2ger, All - can you live with adding a note to D2V rather than
going down the rescind path?
