Currently we have two open issues in the spec issue tracker (http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/products/25), and some other issues highlighted in the spec itself.

Thanks.  I just have two pieces of feedback:

1) As far as I know, we don't have any plans to implement the WebIDL interfaces.

2) From the spec, it sounds like the capture attribute is "limited to
only known values" (see
<http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#limited-to-only-known-values>),
but it would be good to say that explicitly and link to HTML5 to
provide the definition.
