The normative reference to PNG links to the latest version of PNG, which is the Third Edition. While the reference section means to use the Second Edition which is the latest recommendation. Is that intended? You may want to use the latest link instead.

It is expected that the reference to WebP will be updated in the upcoming future.

Approved for publication as Recommendations.

That comes straight from specref: https://www.specref.org/?q=png

As far as I'm aware, we can't override it unless we devise a new reference name (png-2?) and put it in a local biblio file -- or hack some javascript to post-process the specification.
