Well, strictly speaking, it's a combination of HTML 5 and CSS 3 which
will facilitate simplified naming conventions and several new
elements, eg:

section : A generic document or application section. A section, in
this context, is a thematic grouping of content.

article : A section of a page that consists of a composition that
forms an independent part of a document, page, or site. This could be
a forum post, a magazine or newspaper article, a Web log entry, a user-
submitted comment, or any other independent item of content.

aside : A section of a page that consists of content that is
tangentially related to the content around the aside element, and
which could be considered separate from that content. Such sections
are often represented as sidebars in printed typography.

Sadly as ever it'll be a while till browsers catch up and the legacy
crap (primarily IE6) disappears.



But by the time I retire, this should be getting really simple...
