Interesting to know that CSS may be formatted in so many styles. It was interesting to me.

I don’t get it. Why does WHAT-WG prefer to solve problems which already have solutions?

Drag’n'drop is very easy to implement if you use Flapjax for example.

Webkit nightlies supports the draggable attribute, but Safari 4.x doesn't just yet. Oddly you need to kick it with CSS using -khtml-user-drag: element; I wrote an article for html5doctors.com last week or so ago going through DnD and cross browser issues to watch out for: native HTML 5 drag and drop.

This also works in Safari Webkit nightlies. Not sure if it works in straight 4.0.2.

We have also implementation of this Drag&Drop API (initially created by MS, as noted by SleepyDog) with minor limitations in Ample SDK http://www.amplesdk.com/examples/extensions/ Works in all browsers.

Finally something in HTML5 that is actually useful and has a chance of being implemented by Microsoft.

Some of the demos also work in Webkit nightlies. Really cool.
