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.
This works for me and is actually what we decided back in 2009 as
Working Group and back then Ian Jacobs said it was okay
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2009OctDec/0454.html
so I am glad this is acceptable again. Lets do it.
Doug - do you know of any RECs that contain such text (that we can review)?
Anne, Ms2ger - would you please propose some text we can review?
-Thanks, AB
