W3C and the CSS Working Group publish information about the specifications under development in various ways. This page is the working group's weblog (blog). Other places to find information are the “current work” page, the www-style mailing list.
We discussed the CSS2.1 test suite today, particularly how to incorporate Ian Hickson's tests and Microsoft's tests into the test suite. Arron (Microsoft) and fantasai (HP) will be working together on that project.
Licensing was brought up: the HTMLWG recently adopted the MIT license for their tests, whereas the CSS tests are currently licensed under the W3C Document License. We could relicense the tests or license new tests under the MIT license if necessary, but we're not sure if that's needed. If you have any thoughts on that, please post to public-css-testsuite@w3.org or otherwise contact a member of the CSS Working Group.
/TR/CSS2 to CSS2.1.

Note: <em>This paragraph is informative.</em>
This document is currently not maintained. The CSS Working Group is
developing CSS Level 2 Revision 1, which corrects many errors and
omissions in this document as well as making a few other changes as
documented in the changes section. The CSS Working Group encourages
authors and implementors to reference CSS2.1 instead of this document
and when features common to CSS2 and CSS 2.1 are defined differently
to follow the definitions in CSS2.1.

This text makes no changes that affect conformance to REC-CSS2, so should qualify as a Class 2 Change under the W3C Process.

This document is currently not maintained. The CSS Working Group is
developing CSS Level 2 Revision 1, which has much more precise and
Web-compatible definitions of the features described here. The CSS
Working Group encourages authors and implementors to reference CSS2.1
instead of this document and when features common to CSS1 and CSS 2.1
are defined differently to follow the definitions in CSS2.1.

/TR/CSS and point it at the CSS2.1 spec, which is the latest and most mature CSS specification. (In the future it will point to the latest Snapshot.)
