<p>On top of editorial updates, substantives changes since publication as a W3C Recommendation in <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/2016/REC-media-source-20161117/">November 2016</a> are the addition of a {{SourceBuffer/changeType()}} method to switch codecs, the possibility to create and use {{MediaSource}} objects off the main thread in dedicated workers, and the removal of the <code>createObjectURL()</code> extension to the {{URL}} object following its integration in the File API [[FILEAPI]]. For a full list of changes done since the previous version, see the <a href="https://github.com/w3c/media-source/commits/main">commits</a>.</p>

<p>The working group maintains <a href="https://github.com/w3c/media-source/issues">a list of all bug reports that the editors have not yet tried to address</a>.</p>
<p>Implementors should be aware that this specification is not stable. <strong>Implementors who are not taking part in the discussions are likely to find the specification changing out from under them in incompatible ways.</strong> Vendors interested in implementing this specification before it eventually reaches the Candidate Recommendation stage should track the <a href="https://github.com/w3c/media-source">GitHub repository</a> and take part in the discussions.</p>
