Comments on TV Control API specification

Hello

During review, the following are noted regarding the TV Control API Specification - provided at http://w3c.github.io/tvapi/spec/


1.       The Terminology<http://w3c.github.io/tvapi/spec/#terminology> section states "The video<http://www.w3.org/TR/html51/semantics.html#the-video-element> element, and HTMLMediaElement<http://www.w3.org/TR/html51/semantics.html#htmlmediaelement>, TimeRanges<http://www.w3.org/TR/html51/semantics.html#timeranges> interfaces are defined in [HTML51<http://w3c.github.io/tvapi/spec/#bib-HTML51>]" however these are all defined in [HTML5]. Do we need to reference HTML 5.1 working draft when HTML 5 is already a recommendation?

2.       The Terminology<http://w3c.github.io/tvapi/spec/#terminology> section states "The TextTrack<http://www.w3.org/TR/html51/semantics.html#texttrack>, TextTrackCue<http://www.w3.org/TR/html51/semantics.html#texttrackcue>, and TrackEvent<http://www.w3.org/TR/html51/semantics.html#trackevent> interfaces are defined in [HTML51<http://w3c.github.io/tvapi/spec/#bib-HTML51>]" however these are all defined in [HTML5]. Do we need to reference HTML 5.1 working draft when HTML 5 is already a recommendation?

3.       Based on the above two items, the informative reference to [HTML51] is not required.

4.       As the TVMediaSource is an extension of the MediaSource, the reference to [MediaCapture-Streams] should be normative.

5.       There should be a normative reference to ISO 639-2, "ISO 639-2:1998 Codes for the representation of names of languages - Part 2: Alpha-3 code" - it is directly reference in section 8.2<http://w3c.github.io/tvapi/spec/#methods-4>.

I will try to complete a more comprehensive review, but having been involved in the creation of this specification, it is often difficult to spot "issues"
