Could indeed say, an XML vocabulary (XSL-FO) for specifying formatting semantics. However, i’d be reluctant to suggest going too far. There are a ton of pages that in principle could be changed - how many of the implementations listed there or on the XQuery or XML Schema page are still available, for example? - but as soon as you start modifying those you end up with a ton of work that's open-ended. The only useful answers i can see are to mark them as dead pages, or to make new live pages with multiple people who can update them, maybe wikipedia pages, and have the dead W3C pages point at those. The primary purpose of the spec pages at W3C really was to help the Working Group progress their specifications to Recommendations. This wasn't a very good primary purpose, but internally, management was constantly emphasizing it. I was always impressed by the accessibility and internationalization activity pages going far beyond that, but then, in a way, for them, the Web pages _were_ the recommendation, so that was fundamentally different. > liam -- Liam Quin, https://www.delightfulcomputing.com/ Available for XML/Document/Information Architecture/XSLT/ XSL/XQuery/Web/Text Processing/A11Y training, work & consulting.
