No

No

Wide Review of substantive changes

Substantive changes were quite narrowly-scoped - one bugfix and one clarification on white space handling, so review was not very wide.

Issues status

Just publishing to sync with L3, so DoC is at https://drafts.csswg.org/css-writing-modes-3/issues-cr-2018 Still some open issues requesting clarifications, see https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Acss-writing-modes-3

There's also a couple feature requests related to scrolling, probably will not be handled in this level but may be addressed in the future. See https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Acss-writing-modes-4

Formal Objections

None

Any changes in implementation information?

Looks like PrinceXML has also implemented support for writing-mode.

Deadline for further comments

As usual, CSSWG continues to accept comments, but is increasingly limited in ability to accept by Web compat constraints as adoption increases.

Any changes in patent disclosures?

None.

Transition approved.
