This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
In section 8.2.2.1: http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/single-page.html#determining-the-character-encoding Steps 5 and 6 are identical. This looks like an issue with our processing tools, since this issue is not found in the WhatWG version of the same document.
Fixed in 49d77f7. Actually it looks like the content was duplicated with different wrapping. It's probably a merge issue.
Looks like bdae138d is to blame. Thx for fixing.
