Description Michael[tm] Smith 2010-01-25 08:39:17 UTC
HTML source of author view of the spec has this:

  <strong class="impl">Authoring requirements</strong>: The <code title="attr-meter-value"><a href="#attr-meter-value">value</a></code> attribute must be...

-- which results in that part showing up in the author view like this:

  : The value attribute must be...

That is, the paragraph starts with a colon.

So the colon needs to go inside the text content of the strong element, instead of in the text content that follows it.
