The HTML specification was last published as:

ftp://ds.internic.net/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-iiir-html-01.txt

Oops! It's been deleted. It expired some time ago. The working document
is available at:

http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/MarkUp/HTML.html

My notes on the design are available at:

http://www.hal.com/~connolly/html-design.html

In an effort to replace the Internet Draft of HTML, I solicited and
nominated working group memebers and came up with:
