The specs really are drastically better than they used to be. Compare the modern specification for CSS Table Layout (https://www.w3.org/TR/css-tables-3/ https://www.w3.org/TR/css-tables-3/) with the older CSS2 one (https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/tables.html https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/tables.html). The older one doesn't even attempt to define the "automatic layout algorithm" at all!

It exists in this repository to record the ideas and promote discussion. > Before attempting to implement this spec, please contact the CSSWG at www-style@w3.org.
- nicoburns 4y agoIt means that the spec is a draft and that it hasn't been finished yet (there may still be bits missing or wrong). But it is clearly already so much better than the old version.
- missblit 4y agoIt means that the web is built on top of a bunch of working draft specifications. If you work in the web space you quickly learn to shrug, double check that browsers do actually implement this version, and proceed.
