And this is at least the 2nd or 3rd attempt at a 3d context API for
the <canvas>, and it's not stable nor widely implemented yet. However,
this last webGL attempt at it looks promising:

The FAQ proper should be describing features which can be safely used in
pages on the World-Wide Web. That means those in recent public releases
- not Alpha, not Beta, not Nightly - of all major browsers - or in most
of the major browsers AND in current draft or final standards.

Section 2.6 "What does the future hold for ECMAScript?" could be
followed by 2.7 "What does the future hold for HTML etc.?" which would
link to introductory and standards (and maybe **very** briefly describe)
material on such as canvas & other graphics.

The FAQ needs a backup server.
