According to the W3C's 2012 December 17 Press Release, "Though not yet W3C standards, these specifications are now feature complete, meaning businesses and developers have a stable target for implementation and planning."

The next stage is what they call "Candidate Recommendation," which will consist of extensive testing and work to ensure interoperability across platforms.

Progress!

Joannesalfa Someone more technically inclined would need to translate it, but you can find the Canvas Level 2 specs on the WC3 website as well.
Also, the caniuse website maintains a detailed browser compatibility matrix with HTML5. The overall compatibility scores for the major browsers are:

94% Chrome

77% Opera/Safari

76% Firefox

74% IE

73% iOS Safari

65% Blackberry

62% Android

10% Opera Mini

Chrome is easily the strongest, Opera/Safari/Firefox/IE/iOS Safari are are roughly comparable, Blackberry and Android are a bit behind, and Opera Mini barely charts.
