I think it's just a different use of the word "stable" (i.e. the dated versions of the spec are stable in that their contents don't change, and "Latest Stable Version" is a link that resolves to the most recent one of these). I'm happy to change the wording to avoid "stable" if it's confusing, though. That URL won't always be to a draft, so I'm not sure "Latest Published Draft" is exactly the wording we want. At some point http://www.w3.org/TR/WebIDL/ will resolve to a Recommendation, at which point previous documents that state "Latest Published Draft" would be inaccurate. "Latest Published Version" would work for me. (To avoid confusion with the "Previous Version" link directly underneath it, I might list the "Previous Published Versions".) Does that work for you?
