Missing list of abbreviations
Where is the list of abbreviations used in the standard? The term "UA" is used extensively throughout the text but not explained anywhere...

I think the fix here is to expand it to "user agent" in most places, rather than to define abbreviations.
some where UAs is used ,we may clearly assert that "UAs" is expand to "User Agents"

@annevk Could You share the link where we need to change UAs to User agent?
It's in the source file of this repository. You'll have to clone the repository and edit that file locally on your computer as it's too big for GitHub's online editor to handle. If you don't want to use git on the command-line the GitHub Desktop client works quite well for me.
Under section 2.4.5.7 - Global Dates and times, it should be "mid-twentieth century" on the first line after the 4 bullet points. It's a small difference of a hyphen.

Hey @theveetragnhr, see the instructions in https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/6205#issuecomment-768995174 and https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/6205#issuecomment-742288291.

@Rashika101 just to set expectations, I generally don't work in the weekend and throughout the week I mostly stick to European office hours. In the future I recommend leaving a single comment and editing it as needed as for some people this might have generated four emails.
@annevk Hey! I am interested in contributing to this issue. I made the change and written "User Agent" in place of "UV" in the source file. This is my Pull Request #6488 . Please merge it! Thank You.
This isn't fixed yet, but given the experience we've had with PRs thus far it might be a bit too tricky if you are just starting out as you cannot simply run a search & replace on the text as https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/6205#issuecomment-742288291 suggests. Rewrapping is needed, case preservation is sometimes needed, and in some cases it cannot be replaced as IDs and hyperlinks cannot be broken.
I would like to contribute for this issue. Can you assign this issue to me?
This issue is still open. We don't assign issues, if you want to fix something, please provide a PR. I'm removing the "good first issue" label per my earlier comment.
