Contribute

Everybody can take part in the discussions on the archived mailing list www-style@w3.org . You can subscribe yourself. This is the preferred place for discussions, since the members of the working group will see them. Please don't use this list for questions of the type How do I… Use comp. infosystems. www. authoring. stylesheets ("ciwas") or see “Learning CSS” .

If you work for a W3C member organization , you can also join the CSS working group and see drafts before they are published. To participate you need to commit to (on average) 1 day per week. Contact me or your organization's W3C contact person. The group's minutes are public and posted on the CSS WG blog.

A specification is not a manual. There is no excuse for badly written drafts and please complain if you find one. But specs do target a specific audience. See Elika Etemad's Understanding the CSS Specifications.. J. David Eisenberg has written another useful How to read W3C specs.

Mark-up con­ven­tions

The source mark-up of the specifications follows certain conventions (which is useful for automatic processing).
