[css-values-4] Calc serialization links to a publicly-inaccessible discussion #11781

Description

@AtkinsSJ

At the top of the Mathematical Expressions/Serialization section, we have this note:

ISSUE 3
This section is still under discussion.

(And likewise this is in the published W3C version.)

There are a few issues with this, as an implementer:

  • What aspects are undecided?
  • Is it even still under discussion? Judging by the URL that discussion is from almost 9 years ago.
  • If there are still parts of this that need ironing out, excluding non-csswg implementers (unintentionally or not) means fewer people are able to collaborate the remaining problems.

It's true that css-values-4 is in working draft status, but in practice, calc() has long been in common use and websites (and WPT) rely on specific serialization behaviour.
