> As Ian has seen fit to force this issue to (presumably) a vote, I have,
> as requested, created an Alternate Draft (which I will be publicly
> referencing as the "Respect version", as opposed to the "WHAT WG
> version")  I have posted this version at http://foliot.ca/html5/ and
> can also provide you with a zipped HTML document (Mike?)
> 
> For clarity I have made the following changes:
> 
> Differences Summary:
> 
> 1) added @summary as a conformant attribute of the table element
> (4.9.2.1)
> 2) added explanation of @summary
> 3) provided cautionary message that @summary is under review and may be
> made obsolete (aka class="XXX")
> 3) added example of @summary usage
> 4) removed @summary from 12.1 Conforming but obsolete features
> 
> 5) Corrected proper spelling of Braille (now written as a formal name)
> at lines 1680 and 12607
> 
> 6) added my name (with email contact) as an Editor to this Draft
> 7) modified versioning to: Revision: 1.2720-a  (This is a presumption -
> Sam it will probably be necessary to provide proper instruction to
> others who will be branching or forking the specification moving
> forward)
> 8) removed the text: "<p>This specification is also being produced by
> the <a her="http://www.whatwg.org/">WHATWG</a>. The two specifications
> are identical from the table of contents onwards.</p>" as this is of
> course false.
> 9) removed contact information at line 238 for WHAT WG as they likely
> are not interested in supporting this branch of the specification at
> this time
> 10) added mirror location of this Draft at: http://foliot.ca/html5 and
> have posted to that location
