This makes it impossible for script to access the contents of TextTrackCues. This could be fixed in one of two ways: 1) revert [1] back to [2], 2) pull the DataCue introduced in HTML 5.1 [3] into [1].

I think you misread. It says HTMLWG.org and it's the current CR candidate of the W3C HTML WG. 99074 7 glenn 2014-01-25 06:21:27 +0000 (In reply to Silvia Pfeiffer from comment #6) > (In reply to Glenn Adams from comment #5) > > (In reply to Silvia Pfeiffer from comment #4) > > > > > The current CR http://htmlwg.org/heartbeat/CR-html5-20140130/ has a DataCue > > > with a constructor at > > > http://htmlwg.org/heartbeat/CR-html5-20140130/embedded-content-0. > > > html#datacue . > > > > What does it mean to refer to a WHATWG version as "the current CR"? > > I think you misread.

Perhaps it is just an ED of a CR being staged for publishing on TR? 99075 8 silviapfeiffer1 2014-01-25 06:26:20 +0000 (In reply to Glenn Adams from comment #7) > (In reply to Silvia Pfeiffer from comment #6) > > > > I think you misread.

Perhaps it is just an ED of a CR being staged for publishing on TR? It's a CR *candidate* and it has been announced on the html-admin list. It will eventually replace the current CR on TR.
