Sort of true, W3C HTML decided that it did not meet the high bar required to add a feature to HTML. There is no doubt it exists, but hgroup is obsolete in W3C HTML, like the <font> element and a host of other HTML feature[1] detritus.

Another way to look at it is that it's one of the many features and bug fixes that the WHATWG has added to HTML above and beyond what the W3C has published in their stale snapshot. 114888 4 faulkner.steve 2014-11-13 12:15:45 +0000 (In reply to Ian 'Hixie' Hickson from comment #3) > So to answer the original question, yes, it exists. > > Another way to look at it is that it's one of the many features and bug > fixes that the WHATWG has added to HTML above and beyond what the W3C has > published in their stale snapshot. We continue to develop HTML at the W3C alongside whatwg's work, hgroup was introduced while you were editor of HTML at W3C, your suggested addition was reviewed, discussed and found to be suboptimal, and consequently obsoleted. We would obviously reconsider such a feature if it was designed a way that was actually useful to users and developers.
