Recent CRs before the f2f:

• CSS Cascading and Inheritance Level 3 (CR), metabug
  • New features since CSS2.x
    • 'all' property
    • scoped styles, animations, and transitions in the cascade.

These have made it into CR since that f2f:

Upcoming CRs

These CRs are expected by end of 2016:

• Box Alignment (see above)

• Media Queries 4 (note: new features in 4), metabug

• Selectors 4 (need list of changes since 3), metabug

• Text (need list of changes since CSS 2.1), metabug

For all potential CRs:

• Which browsers have openly announced implementations or intent to implement? (links?)
