The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standards body is aiming to have the full HTML5 specification finished up by 2014.
While the next-generation web standard is already supported by most of the mainstream browsers, the W3C will move to "last call" in May this year, asking everyone involved to "confirm the technical soundness of the specification".
Then, it will be thoroughly tested over the next three years, after which it will be moved to "Recommendation" stage in 2014.
"Even as innovation continues, advancing HTML5 to Recommendation provides the entire web ecosystem with a stable, tested, interoperable standard," said Jeff Jaffe, W3C's CEO.
