Comment:
If this input type is meant to represent the ISO week number of the Gregorian
calendar, then this description should say so in order to be explicit and
unambiguous about it. If not, then some of the description should change. For
example, "... on the morning of the Monday of the parsed week.." should be
"... on the morning of the Monday contained within the parsed week ..." as
weeks start on different days in different locales.

Comment 2 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2012-08-26 03:06:15 UTC 
The section says "The input element represents a control for setting the element's value to a string representing a specific week", where "week" links to a precise definition of what it means. So I think this should be completely unambiguous already.
