Moreover, it says "The plan is, informed by Webforms, to extend HTML forms." as opposed to "adopt WebForms 2.0" or something like that.

I didn't know how to interpret that section about forms when I read it because Tim's statements are rather vague. However, a frightening thought just struck me.

Could it mean that the W3C isn't going to use WF2 directly, but rather push ahead with Dave Ragget's Forms Lite proposal [1]? There seems to be significant discussion about it going on at www-forms [2]. The proposal seems to throw out much of the WF2 work (including some explicitly because of Opera's existing implementation), in favour a very much corrupted version that is somehow attempting to integrate with XForms.

Or will the WHAT WG activities continue with an endorsement from the W3C?

I hope so.
