An epub community within w3c has decided epub 3.1 is dead on arrival. They are trying to salvage an epub 3.2 or epub 3.0.2 that does not support any series meta either.

I’m not sure that’s right. My reading was, it was 3.1 which removed series metadata, and since 3.2 (AKA 3.0.2) is returning to 3.0.1-compatibility (warts and all) it’ll have the series metadata from 3.0.1 too.

(It’ll be “deprecated”, but since there won’t be another 3.x version, and since EPUB4 will have a completely different model anyway, I don’t see that deprecation will have any effect at all.)
