The July 1993 internet draft called itself 1.3. So we can't use
anything less than that. 2.0 also coincides rougly with the Mosaic
version number that introduced form, I think. Here's a full reference
to the previous publication, from the internet draft index:

  "Hypertext Markup Language (HTML): A Representation of Textual 
  Information and MetaInformation for Retrieval and 
  Interchange",07/23/1993, <draft-ietf-iiir-html-01.txt, .ps>

I'll wait till TimBL and DaveR get a chance to read this bit about
proposed and obsolete stuff before I make those changes.
