   • Background:
     • Chair's message summarizing status of versioning work in the TAG (sent 24 March 2009).
     • Sam Ruby blog posting on HTML reunification
     • Larry Masinter review of TAG work on versioning

     • TAG Blog posting: Version Identifiers Reconsidered
     • Thread starting with John Kemp email on updating AWWW good practice note on versioning
     • At 23 March 2009 AC meeting there was at least an informal sense that the AC wanted the TAG to help with the extensibility issue, primarily in the context of HTML. Tim took an action (from the AC, not the TAG) to see that the TAG takes a look at this.
     • The following TAG actions are open or pending under ISSUE-41:
       • ACTION-183 (David Orchard) Incorporate formalism into versioning compatibility strategies. Due 3 March 2009. Pending review Jonathan reports that he and David have decided not to incorporate the formalism after all, so we need to consider fate of the formalism work.

       • ACTION-241 (Larry Masinter) Larry Masinter to Review TAG versioning situation and report back to TAG and HTML - due 2009-03-12, open

     • Review Larry's progress on versioning

     • Larry Masinter email pointing to Minutes from the IETF/HTML liaison meeting in March, including discussion of content sniffing.
