<li>Changed the sentence <em>Column rules are painted in the inline content layer, but below all inline content inside the multicol element.</em> to <em>Column rules are painted just above the border of the multicol element. For scrollable multicol elements, note that while the border and background of the multicol element obviously aren’t scrolled, the rules need to scroll along with the columns.</em> <a href="https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1739#issuecomment-342659978">Resolved: 7 Nov 2017</a></li>

<li>Under section The Multi-column Model, removed two sentences <em>That is, column boxes behave like block-level, table cell, and inline-block boxes as per CSS 2.1, section 10.1, item 2 CSS21. However, column boxes do not establish block container boxes for elements with ''position: fixed or position: absolute''.</em>. THese were replaced with a clarification about the principal box and a new example showing how abspos elements refer to the multicol container. <a href="https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1738#issuecomment-342661881">Resolved: 7 Nov 2017</a></li>
17271728
<li>Removed the sentence "To indicate where column breaks should (or should not) appear, new keyword values are introduced." and following example (Example 7 in the WD published <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/2017/WD-css-multicol-1-20171005/">5 Oct 2017</a>) as the multicol specification no longer introduces these properties. <a href="https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1966">Editorial</a></li>
17281729
<li>Changed how we reference the element we have applied multicol to from multi-column or multicol <em>element</em> to multi-column or multicol <em>container</em>. <a href="https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1965">Resolved: 22 November 2017</a></li>
17291730
<li>Removed the example which stated "If a tall image is moved to a column on the next page to find room for it, its natural column may be left empty. If so, the column is still considered to have content for the purpose of deciding if the column rule should be drawn." <a href="https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1740">Resolved: 7 September 2017</a></li>
