The IE team speaks HTML5 on W3c List, better now than never?
sent by Paweł Ludwiczak, article via Position AbsoluteMicrosoft finally decided to share the IE team thoughts on HTML5, unfortunately their feedbacks are mostly negative, and are a bit late for some elements they are arguing.They review a lot of “established part” of the recommendation, and would they have joined the discussion before this point, most of their feedback would have not been necessary today.
It is unfortunate that they do not speak about canvas, audio and video tags. These tags are a major update over the HTML4 specs. Some people (including me) think that they will not implement these tags because of the competition it would provide to Silverlight, which they have been trying to bring to the global market for years.
