Section 6.1.1.1 says:

   Attributes of <audio>:

   o  url - required, no default value: The URL of the content to be
      retrieved and played.  The target may be a local or remote (NFS)
      "file://" scheme URL or an "http://" or "https://" scheme URL.  If
      the URL is not fully qualified and a "baseurl" attribute was set,
      the value of the "baseurl" attribute will be prepended to this
      value to generate the target URL.

It should say:

< see Notes >

Notes:

Again, the RFC should make use of standard terminology
established in the IETF.
STD 66, RFC 3986 should be used here.
The attribute, 'url', should better have been named 'uri'.

Consequently, all subsequent references to an URL w.r.t. this
attribute should be replaced by "URI" or "URI reference", as
appropriate.

Authors comment: This is really an Editorial erratum. If it were to be changed, it should be changed consistently throughout the document.
