Slide 36 of 87

Notes:

General discussion about HTML is normally carried out on the `www-html' list, which should be used for anything which is not the work of this group.

The working group will work in two stages.
Descriptive specification
The first priority will be to complete the specification of existing practice on the Internet, defining it in terms which make development of new features as straightforward as possible. This specification will cover HTML up to that which has been called level 2 (i.e., including basic features, highlighting, images and forms). During this period discussion of new features should not be carried out on the working group mailing list.
Development
Once the descriptive specification is submitted to the standards process, the group will work on development of HTML, taking on the work known as HTMLPlus. This work will include formats for tables, figures and mathematical formulae.
In the absence of other proposals, the working group will terminate having produced its milestones and the RFCs having achieved standards status.
