Celebrating HTML5 Recommendation with the W3C

  • Article

Today, while several Internet Explorer team members are at W3C TPAC 2014, the IE team is happy to join Microsoft Open Technologies, other browser vendors, and the web community at large in celebrating the HTML5 specification reaching W3C Recommendation.

This milestone represents many years of commitment from people and organizations around the world to produce and stabilize the next generation of the W3C Open Web Platform. The IE team believes that the standards process is vital to creating an interoperable Web and ensuring that the web just works for everyone.

We’d also like to congratulate the W3C on its 20th anniversary and look forward to continued collaboration on the future of the open web.

    "The IE team believes that the standards process is vital to creating an interoperable Web and ensuring that the web just works for everyone." So glad to read this after the week I just spent fighting IE8

    There will always be browser "differences" causing the same headaches since IE7 compat because otherwise vendors like Microsoft, Apple, Google, etc. won't be able to differentiate and market the use of their browser above the competition. Unfortunately script standards are an impending issue soon with the advent of ES6.
