Yes, they announced this without much fanfare last May:

https://www.w3.org/blog/2019/05/w3c-and-whatwg-to-work-together-to-advance-the-open-web-platform/

So apparently the "living standard" aka "there is no standard as it
can and will frequently change without notice" is the new normal.

The announcement claims the W3C will snapshot the document every now
and again to produce a Recommendation but they don't seem to have
done this at any point in the last year.

The W3C updated the links on their site after I pointed out to them
that they had contradictory information in different places (and,
e.g. the W3C validator was generating errors that contradicted the
specification it pointed you to to explain them).
