W3C's New XHTML 2.0 Draft A Mistake?

Posted by timothy on Tuesday January 14, 2003 @10:32AM from the all-change-is-bad dept.

EchoMirage writes "The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has been quietly working on drafts for a proposed XHTML 2.0 standard. But some well-known and well-respected web authors are balking at the proposal, because it invalidates several well-used tags. Given that XHTML 1.1 hasn't even seen any wide use yet, and many browsers are still working on basic HTML 4 and CSS1 compatibility, many people are questioning the W3C's push to create new standards before the old ones are solidly in place."

On my own story? How often does that happen...

Yep, I'm burning karma with this.
