I intended to keep the W3C fork up to date (at least up to a point), but at some point I attempted to simply apply Git patches from Anne's edits to the WHATWG version, and it turned out Git had problems applying them automatically for whatever reason - apparently the versions were already so distinct that it wasn't possible. Since then I haven't found time for doing the manual cut-and-paste work required, and I therefore think it's probably better to follow Anne's advice and drop the W3C version entirely in favour of the WHATWG version. I still like the idea of having a "stable" spec documenting the interoperable behaviour of XHR by a given point in time - but I haven't been able to prioritise it and neither, apparently, have the other two editors. -Hallvord
