    Posté par . En réponse au journal Le WHATWG veut faire avancer HTML 5 dans son coin. Évalué à 3. Dernière modification le 23 juillet 2012 à 15:42.

    Ils ne reprochent rien a HTML5, ils reprochent au W3C son rythme pour valider le boxon, ce qu'ils veulent faire c'est avoir une version rolling release de la norme, gérée par eux, et une version LTS (pas vraiment le bon terme, mais passons) que le W3C valide quand ils le sentent.
    Pour mémoire HTML5 n'est pas encore passé au statut de recommandation, et devrait y arriver entre 2014 et 2022.
    L'annonce, qui debute ainsi:

    A few years ago (around 2007), we started working with the W3C on what we
    were then unofficially calling "HTML5", and officially calling "Web
    Applications 1.0". We renamed the specification "HTML5", and the W3C began
    publishing a copy of it as well. Not long after, the W3C side of this
    effort decided to split their version of the spec into subspecs (e.g.
    splitting out the 2D canvas API, server-sent events, postMessage, etc),
    and for a while we tried to match that on the WHATWG side. The result was
    an increasing confusion of versions of the spec, so we eventually went
    back to just having a single spec on the WHATWG side which contains
    everything I work on, which we now call the "HTML Living Standard". Over
    the years, this document and the various documents on the W3C side have
    slowly slightly forked, as documented at the top of the WHATWG spec.

    Depending on the time of day, the French go either way.
