Status of the Document


This section describes the status of this document at the time of its publication. Other documents may supersede this document. A list of current W3C publications and the latest revision of this technical report can be found in the W3C technical reports index at http://www.w3.org/TR/.

The API is based on preliminary work done in the WHATWG. While the specification is feature complete and is expected to be stable, it might evolve based on implementation feedback that will be gathered as its associated test suite evolves. This test suite will be used to build an implementation report of the API; to go into Proposed Recommendation status, the group expects to demonstrate implementation of each feature in at least two deployed browsers. This document will remain a Candidate Recommendation at least until 15 June 2016 in order to ensure the opportunity for wide review.

This document was published by the Web Real-Time Communication Working Group and the Device and Sensors Working Group as a Candidate Recommendation.
