Description Silvia Pfeiffer 2012-04-04 05:54:37 UTC 
The section about default CSS properties of cue text as specified in [1] includes a block-flow CSS property, which IIUC has been replaced by the writing-mode property [2]. The spec needs to be updated to reflect this (and should likely include a reference to the CSS proposal).

Checked in as WHATWG revision r7074.
Check-in comment: Not sure where 'block-flow' came from, but it should be 'writing-mode' and the values are different.
