Description Glenn Adams 2014-01-02 14:57:09 UTC 
In 6.6.2, "interface External" violates the convention that member names are camel cased. Either change to camel case or add note explaining rationale for diverging from convention.

HTML5.1 Bugzilla Bug Triage: Won't Fix

This [broken] convention is only for legacy interop (in fact these APIs are changing to be no-ops). If not needed for Web compat, we would drop them :-).

If this resolution is not satisfactory, please copy the relevant bug details/proposal into a new issue at the W3C HTML5 Issue tracker: https://github.com/w3c/html/issues/new where it will be re-triaged. Thanks!
