For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Rejected Change Description: no spec change Rationale: If I moved the definition of "rank" down, I'd also have to move the bulk of the definition of how <hgroup> works lower down, and all that would end up happening is that everything would get moved down together into a different section. I don't think it would be any less confusing. As it is, if you read the spec straight through, you come across the definition of rank, in the <h1> section, then use it immediately in the <hgroup> section, so it all seems to be "at once" already.
