This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Section 4.7, Disable Output Escaping, contains the paragraph: Conceptually, each character in a text node on such a result tree has a boolean property indicating whether the serializer is to disable the normal rules for escaping of special characters (for example, outputting of & as &) in respect of this character or attribute node. The words "or attribute node" don't make sense and should be deleted. As the change is editorial, I have fixed it in the 3.0 draft.
