HTML5 Forms is a part of the HTML5 specifications about forms. It introduces new elements, and new input types which aim to help web developers to not re-invent what is already well known. For example, with HTML5 Forms, web developers will not have to write javascript code to tell you a field is required or to check your email address is valid.
Implementation status
Wikipedia offers a non-exhaustive overview of the implementation for the main layout engines: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_layout_engines_%28HTML5%29#Form_elements_and_attributes
A comparison between the different browsers: http://www.findmebyip.com/litmus/#html5-forms-inputs
Priorities
In an ideal word, it would be great to begin with missing listed elements and content implementation of new input types. Then, constraint validation API and new attributes would be doable in one shot instead of implementation a part of the specification then adding what is specific to the new element/input type.
