 # Feature specifications
 
-Because the [C# standard specification](overview.md) has fallen behind the latest C# implementation, this section contains the [Microsoft specifications](~/_csharplang/proposals/csharp-10.0/enhanced-line-directives.md) for those newer features that haven't yet been incorporated into the standard. You can read these specifications to get information on newer features.

-The feature specifications began as proposals for the design. They include proposed changes to the standard. The C# language design team and compiler team produce these feature specifications. The purpose of the proposals is to guide the design and implementation of the feature. They might include proposed features that haven't yet been implemented. The actual implementation might have modified behavior. Those changes are captured in the language design meeting (LDM) notes. The LDM notes are the minutes of the language design meetings. In most cases, the pertinent LDM notes are linked from the feature specifications.

 # C# standard specification
 
-The [C# language specification](~/_csharpstandard/standard/README.md) is the definitive source for the C# language. The [ECMA C# standard committee (TC49-TG2)](https://www.ecma-international.org/task-groups/tc49-tg2/) produces the specification. The committee is currently working on version 8 of the standard. The draft published here includes some, but not all, of the C# 8 features. The committee uses [Microsoft specifications](https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/tree/main/proposals) and [language design meeting (LDM) notes](https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/tree/main/meetings) to produce the specification.

The C# 8 standard corresponds to C# 8.0.

+The committee is currently working on version 8 of the standard. The draft published here is a feature complete draft of C# 8. The committee uses [Microsoft specifications](https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/tree/main/proposals) and [language design meeting (LDM) notes](https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/tree/main/meetings) to produce the specification.
 
 This section contains the latest working draft of the [C# language specification](~/_csharpstandard/standard/README.md). The latest working draft is published here before being submitted to ECMA for approval. The committee works in the [dotnet/csharpstandard](https://github.com/dotnet/csharpstandard) repository. You can track the committee's progress and participate in the standard work there.
 
 > [!NOTE]
-> The committee works to update the C# language specification, but it has fallen behind the current implementation. For specifications about current features, see [Feature specifications](feature-spec-overview.md).
