We hope that the HTML Working Group will pick up HTML5 and continue that work. XHTML2 is under a separate working group which we are not joining.

maceij:

I know that Apple engineers are involved. How about Apple, the company? Why are legal threats about the “intellectual property” of the canvas object sent around? Are you being run over by company policy to not trust anyone else but W3C or IETF?

I appreciate the voice the WebKit team can bring to the discussion. I appreciate that Apple has a team of intelligent engineers, and of course all people that know how the web works. All I’m wondering is - what’s the WebKit team doing to help wake the rest of the company up to the *other* spec that, after all, is partially implemented (the slider input range type) in WebKit already?

Great news Maciej,

I’m very glad to see WebKit being used in quite a few places (most notably in Adobe’s Apollo). I’m feeling a little better about the prospects for the HTML working group with a WebKit presence joining Google, Mozilla, Microsoft, Opera and other interested parties. I would tend to side with HTML 5 rather than XHTML 2 but as long as the final standard is supported by the browser manufacturers I’ll be happy. Maybe you could give the MSFT team a nod in the right direction in relation to the xhtml mime-type while you’re there :p

By the way, WebKit seems to be coming on by leaps and bounds these days. Keep up the good work, we web developers owe all the contributors a debt of gratitude

Cheers;
Poncho
