In the 11 September 2008 edition, section 1.6 of the HTML5 WD (http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#structure) links to Repetition Templates at #repetition but there is no element with that ID.
In a recent interview (http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/programming-and-development/?p=718) Ian Hickson says "For example, the repetition templates proposal is almost certainly going to be dropped." Can you please say why? I was quite fond of this proposal and we're using it on OpenLibrary.org, where it's been a great boon to our development.
