W3C just released the first
W3C just released the first working draft for XHTML 2.0. It’s a bit lacking (such as the list of differences to XHTML 1.1) but there are few noticable things:
- it’s not intended to be backwards-complatible
- self-contained, no more HTML 4.01 pointers
- got elements for simple version control of a document (<del>, <ins>)
- will use XFrames
- forget <br>, learn <line>
- Microsoft is not one of the editors
Summary: looks like W3C wants to make XHTML simpler and redesign legacy problems from HTML.
