I doubt this will ever be updated, since it's reference for a very specific, 20 year old, code interpretation related proposal und not meant for type setting.

I doubt this will ever be updated, since it's reference for a very specific, 20 year old, code interpretation related proposal und not meant for type setting. But for anything related to contemporary typesetting on the web I recommend Practical Typography and especially the Type Composition chapter: http://practicaltypography.com/type-composition.html#links http://practicaltypography.com/type-composition.html#links Including notes on quotes and apostrophes: http://practicaltypography.com/straight-and-curly-quotes.html http://practicaltypography.com/straight-and-curly-quotes.htm... http://practicaltypography.com/apostrophes.html http://practicaltypography.com/apostrophes.html

Hmm. I was going to link the classic https://alistapart.com/article/emen https://alistapart.com/article/emen (and I guess I just did), but I noticed a disclaimer at the top pointing out that it “is now obsolete.” And how! It proclaims that not enough text editors support UTF-8 yet, which thankfully hasn’t been true in ages
