I am assuming that the separate @profile spec will effectively define how profile may be used for disambiguation. Do we also need a change to HTML5 itself, or to any other draft? Or will this be covered sufficiently by the new profile spec? * If we need a separate change to HTML5 for ISSUE-82 -- then we need a Change Proposal. * If we do not need a separate change to HTML5, and what the profile spec says should be sufficient -- then we should probably close ISSUE-82 by amicable resolution in the same way as ISSUE-55. Which of these do you think is the correct way to handle it? I'd also welcome input from Tantek, Julian, or anyone else. Here is a link to ISSUE-82: http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/82 Regards, Maciej
