Well, if I were a betting man, Win8 will be before the full html5 spec is finished. Not that MS won't fully support it as far as it is finished. I even suspect there will be support for items that may never be in the finished spec or be changed after Win8 is published...And I like MS.

Those specs still will leave out X number of a mature user base. Heck, people doing web stuff have to still have to cater a certain amount to that growing ever smaller at a snail's pace user group for the most part.

All that said, as long as Xara is going to continue development of web stuff, I do want support of these two developing specs. But I think Xara needs to make other changes in its WYSIWYG approach to developing web pages along side of incorporating these two specs else it will be a partial implementation.

Take care, Mike
