One of the points made in today's telecon[1] is that neither the WHATWG nor any potential W3C WebApps drafts in the near future are likely to meet the criteria for stability, as evidenced by the following links: http://w3c.github.io/test-results/url/less-than-2.html http://w3c.github.io/test-results/url/all.html It is also clear that the HTML WG will not be able to make this decision in isolation; the WebApps Working Group, the TAG, the AC, AB, and Director will all have a say. - Sam Ruby [1] http://www.w3.org/2014/09/25-html-wg-minutes.html#item04
