All of what was previously abandoned. The charter
http://www.w3.org/2016/08/web-platform-charter-draft.html#deliverables
links to the 2013 Microdata Note.

"just specifying the HTML microdata attributes" seems like a waste of
time for a WG that already has lots of REC-track deliverables (and
sometimes shows a need for more focus, e.g. what happened with
5.1CR/PR vs what the current charter says about modularizing [1]).

Similarly, if there's anything else in the new charter that anyone
else thinks we should specifically cut (beyond "just cut it all"), I'm
interested in hearing about it. Cutting inessential things in this WG
will help with better focus and use of time / resources.
