Thank you for pointing this out. :-) It is rather unlikely now, but it still might become a W3C Recommendation. The inappropriately cited Editor’s Draft was from 2014-06-05. This is the most recent version of it: It is not surprising that the editor of this specification draft was employed by Microsoft. It is also not surprising that after almost two years there is not even a Proposed Recommendation: “This specification will not advance to Proposed Recommendation before the spec's test suite is completed and two or more independent implementations pass each test, although no single implementation must pass each test. We expect to meet this criteria no sooner than 17 October 2014. The group will also create an Implementation Report.” -- PointedEars FAQ: | SVN: Twitter: @PointedEars2 | ES Matrix: Please do not cc me. / Bitte keine Kopien per E-Mail.
