I like this very much. It's the first document I've seen that's approaching usable for developers on a day to day basis.
I'm still not convinced on all the guidelines, lack of validity, deprecated elements and the like but this is a step towards clear and concise documentation which is what we need. We just need to bring the guidelines up to the standard of this document ...
Whoever's been working on this quick reference document deserves a pat on the back, to compensate for the knives in the back they'll have been getting over the WCAG 2.0 thing as a whole

That's a lot more like it. I especially like the parts where it explains good use of semantic markup solves real-world accessibility issues, with examples. In fact, most of the guidance for HTML now boils down to "use HTML like we told you to last century" and is easy to understand. Which is how it should be.
You can see it's still a draft from bits which are missing and some clumsy wording here and there, but this is definitely the sort of thing we've been crying out for.

I've only skimmed it as I don't have much time to read through it completely, but from what I can tell I like it. I can refer to this one doc in instead. And reguarding the check boxes for baselines, hopefully this will discourage some of the potential abuse of baselines.
On a side note: Would it be possible to paraphrase the guidelines without them loosing their meaning?
