Yeah that can’t be right. [There’s also the w3c version of the spec](https://www.w3.org/TR/2dcontext/) but I don’t see anything about that there either.

The only thing that might be true is that it’s essentially a frozen feature set, with nothing new being planned, but again I don’t see a mention of that.

MDN's CanvasRenderingContext2D page[1] suggests that there's a number of 'experimental technology' areas in the API - for instance the filter property[2] (which excites me: hand-coding a performant blur filter is a nightmare!) - which suggests the features are still under active development.
