Hi, Anne-
There are still still some outstanding issues, which we intend to
address in LC; many of them are marked up specifically to solicit wider
review and comments, which is generally more forthcoming during LC. The
goal is to collect these comments so we are ready to discuss them during
TPAC. We expect we will have to have another LC.
So, are these intended as LC comments (which I'm happy to address), or
as an argument against going to LC?

Doug and the folks working on the DOM 3 Events spec believe the spec
is now feature-complete and would like to publish a Last Call Working
Draft of the spec. As such, this is a Call for Consensus to publish
the following document as the LCWD:

There still seem to be a open issues (marked up in the specification).
Yes, this is by design. We believe the spec is feature complete, but we
know there are outstanding issues we want feedback on.
A comment I raised on the 'scroll' event some weeks ago is also not
addressed.
Sorry, I see I started a reply there, but never sent it (sigh); I will
send it now. I think that issue needs more discussion, but I'm happy to
change it during LC if that's the group consensus.
(Just noticed that the references section contains a reference to XHTML
but that is never referenced from the draft. The HTML5 and CSS 2.1
references are out of date.)
Removed XHTML (an artifact from an earlier draft), updated the other
references.
Looking through it a bit more the mousewheel event seems gone. I thought
we agreed long ago that would be part of it. (Various notes in the
specification do mention it, but it seems they are included by accident.)
Yes, we included 'mousewheel' as recently as 7 months ago, but I removed
it based on implementer feedback. I've now removed the stray reference
to it in the "Changes" section.
The only other place it's mentioned is in the 'wheel' event as an
informative comparison.
I'll try to review more closely on Monday.
Thanks. Please let us know if you object to us going to LC, given our
plan of record.
(Note: I will be at the SVG Open conference and SVG WG F2F starting on
Monday, for the next week and a half, and will probably not be very
responsive.)
