Hi Gulfaraz,
Thanks for your e-mail and sorry for the slow reply.
I was directed to it's page from one of StackOverflow's answers and
after following up a bit I've been informed that the above document is
obsolete.
Yes, this is true.
It would be very helpful if there was a notice on the page that
informed it's visitors of the same.
Yes, I agree. I think the "principle of least surprise" implies the
document at w3.org/TR/selectors-api/ should be gutted of all technical
content and a reference to the DOM spec [DOM] (which supersede Selectors
API) should be added (as well as a clear statement work on selectors-api
has stopped and its features/APIs are superseded by [DOM]). However, I
suspect the consortium's publication processes might not permit that.
Xiaoqian, Yves - can we do as I suggest above? If not, what is your
recommendation re making sure people understand work on selectors-api
has stopped and it is superseded by [DOM]?
-Thanks, AB
