<p>
The Web Applications Working Group will rely on modularity as a key part of the development of the HTML language, allowing extension specifications to define new elements, new attributes, new values for attributes that accept defined sets of keywords, and new APIs. Those extension specifications may be achieved within the Web Applications Working Group or other Groups.
