A Word About CSS4

I honestly couldn't tell if this was a joke or not. Tab is usually spot on and I like reading his blog.

What difference does it make if someone uses the term "CSS4 Selectors" instead of "CSS Selectors Level 4"???

Using an example from the article:

> Others start out at level 1, if they're something new (for example, Flexbox

"CSS Flexbox level 1" is a fair bit less confusing than "CSS1 Flexbox model". It would get even worse if a module moved to level 2.1!

This is not a joke. This is the same reason why there will be no HTML6. There will just be HTML moving forward. The 'level N' stuff is just for the W3C to keep track of which 'code sprint' (if you will) they are on. The the end-dev, he can just think of it as CSS moving forward.
