Several documents in the WebApps Working Group are linking to HTML, more

Working Group. Unless the WebApps comes up with a set of good reasons of
why this is done and convince the HTML Working Group, those references
must be changed in order to publish the documents properly and respect
the work of the HTML Working Group,

Re the specific case of the Progress Events spec - when it was last
published it included non-normative references to both version of HTML:
http://www.w3.org/TR/progress-events/#references
May we do that again? (I interpret that to mean the W3C has a fixed
version of HTML and the WHATWG has a tip-of-the-tree version of HTML and
as such, I don't think it 'disses the HTMLWG nor the W3C.)
