The reason I chose 2010 is because I want to include stuff like windows xp and WOW from CompuServe. For a more in depth reason about the coding rule, it’s because html’s versions have not changed that much each version, and it basically does the same thing.
Clearly you don't have much coding experience. Any change to a coding language is potentially a significant change; that is why there is so much effort put into documenting every little detail of each version. For example, in CSS, you use American English, not European English. If you were to use "colour" instead of "color", your CSS wouldn't work. Sure, someone reading the file would know what you mean; but the computer wouldn't. Something like CSS and HTML are fairly high-level languages, meaning they make the computer do a lot of work for you; making assumptions in the process. If you move to lower-level languages, like ones you use for writing computer programs (like your browsers), they get even more picky about syntax. Some languages even care about how many spaces or newlines you put between characters.
