This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Now: For example, "attributes" in end tags are ignored currently, but they are invalid, in case a future change to the language makes use of that syntax feature without conflicting with already-deployed (and valid!) content.</p> Comment 1: "attributes" doesn't seem to need the quotes. Comment 2: the sentence is not really easy to understand, please reformulate. Are these the statements? - Attributes in end tags are ignored currently. - Attributes in end tags are valid curerently. - Attributes in end tags become invalid, if the already used attributes are not defined by a new language that makes use of the syntax feature (attributes in end tags). Clearly expressing this paragraph within in some short sentences, not in one long sentence would be nice. This one will be too confusing for a lot of readers. This is still the introduction that might be meant for HTML noobs like me.
HTML5.1 Bugzilla Bug Triage: fixed, removed quotes, sentence is already rewritten for readability. https://github.com/w3c/html/pull/252 If this resolution is not satisfactory, please copy the relevant bug details/proposal into a new issue at the W3C HTML5 Issue tracker: https://github.com/w3c/html/issues/new where it will be re-triaged. Thanks!
