Hi, Are the css3-* drafts edited as HTML ? Is there a different format (some xml) that is used internally for creating these drafts? If so, is this accessible to public ? I ask this because, I am trying to find out what changed between the latest draft and the one just before it. This would be useful for playing catch as the draft changes. Thanks, Anand
Hi there, There is a public CVS repository with all the CSS specs [1]. You can track the commits there to track changes. For convenience, there is an automated mailing list posting these commits [2], as well as a twitter feed [3].

Here's an [example] comparing two releases of the CSS3 Regions spec.

Note that the hg web view is *really* unusable. If you want the commits to a particular spec, visit that link, then hit "Files" at the top, then "files" next to the spec you want, then "revisions" on the file you want. We author the Overview.src.html file directly, and generate the Overview.html file from it, so you usually want to look at our source file instead to avoid spurious changes from the generation. (If you want to see a particular revision, use Overview.html. Hit "file" next to the revision you want, then hit "Raw" at the top of the page.)> Apparently twitter.com/csscommits links there, but the public-css-commits > list stopped in March.I know. :/ It screwed up my RSS feed. I'll spend some time fixing this soonish. ~TJ
Thanks for all the replies. I should be OK following http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/csswg/log for now.Anand On 8/1/2012 10:09 PM, Tab Atkins Jr. wrote: > On Wed, Aug 1, 2012 at 3:21 AM, Simon Sapin< wrote: >> Le 01/08/2012 11:06, Lea Verou a écrit : >>> There is a public CVS repository with all the CSS specs [1].
