Good points from Jason and Chaals.

For me, I was just suggesting contributing to the best practice guide
for authors within the HTML5 group (when the group can figure out what
that is) as many here are also involved but what Jason is suggesting is
a W3 free authoring guide. Is that right Jason?

However, to be honest I have neither the will nor the spare cycles for a
maha rewrite of anything at the mo, am experiencing post book blues.

Cheers
