Summary:
Provide a descriptive summary of the issue.

The What’s New in Safari 9.0 documentation has a minor error in the “Unprefixed CSS Properties” section. It incorrectly states:

“The properties in Newly supported ECMAScript 6 properties are now fully supported by Safari, without the -webkit- prefix.”

ECMAScript is the spec for javascript, it is not the spec for CSS.

Steps to Reproduce:
In numbered format, detail the exact steps taken to produce the bug.

1. Open a browser
2. Visit https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/General/WhatsNewInSafari/Articles/Safari_9.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40014305-CH9-SW28
3. Note that the “Unprefixed CSS Properties” section incorrectly states “ECMAScript”, which is not the spec governing CSS. The W3C governs the CSS spec.

Expected Results:
Describe what you expected to happen when you executed the steps above.

I expect the documentation to *not* say ECMAScript regarding new CSS properties. Perhaps it should reference W3C, or CSS3?

Actual Results:
Explain what actually occurred when steps above were executed.

The page incorrectly states the new css properties are part of the ECMAScript 6 spec.

Notes:
Provide additional information, such as references to related problems, workarounds and relevant attachments.
