Description Dimitri Glazkov 2013-08-26 17:53:40 UTC 
These parts of Shadow DOM spec had shifted, and we need to keep the explainer in sync.
Comment 1 Dominic Cooney 2014-01-20 02:53:32 UTC 
Hayato, can you help me out with a list of what needs to happen here? For example ::content (was ::distributed) is in the spec, but I think that's deprecated?

Sure. 

1. '::content' is not deprecated.

The spec is here: http://w3c.github.io/webcomponents/spec/shadow/#content-pseudo-element

2. Unfortunately, ':host' is not defined in the Shadow DOM spec yet.

The style section in the Shadow DOM spec have to be rewritten. That's one of TODO list on our radar.
Comment 3 Dominic Cooney 2014-01-24 07:16:28 UTC 
Can you reopen this bug when :host is in the spec?

I could also use a list of what you think needs updating, not sure if that was clear from Comment 1.

Sure. I think it is too early to mention ':host' in the explainer.
