CSS 2.1 is a good example. We've had plenty of confusion there too with
the TR/ version being hopelessly behind (and still is; lots of changes
have been made since September 2009).
I guess this discussion is around the
* compromise between Stability vs Implementability
* and maybe also markup, technologies users.
There are people with different needs with regards to specifications and
the W3C has to find a way which will make it possible to cater the
different type of communities.
Usually,
* implementers need a document which evolves quickly depending on the
feedback
* web developers/designers need a document which is stable.
Maybe the W3C could "rebrand" the thing (using tools) with a developer
edition and a public edition?
I will ping Ian Jacobs about it. It fits into the discussions going on
these days.
Don't developers/designers want to know the latest details too? E.g. that
"autobuffer" is now named "preload" and takes a different value?
