The RSPB required a web application through which they could provide learning material to people interested in birds and birdwatching. Once a user has logged-in they are presented with 6 different modules as well as access to the resource library which contains the RPSB Handbook of British Birds and Where to Watch Birds - Britain.
Although still only a working draft the outlines look very appealing. In particular the fallback facility and the inclusion of more logical elements; l for a line of code or text in essence replacing the br element and nl elements intended for use where a navigation list appears.
I have only illustrated a couple of features of the new specification that I will find helpful. It will be interesting to see how quick the adaption to XHTML 2.0 is with the internet browsers, and whether Internet Explorer 7 has already made considerations for it.

Sounds good, the nl tag would definately be good for accessibility purposes and for screen reader software. Plus any development of the spec\’s is always fun to get your head round.
