Non sono un esperto delle specifiche W3C, ma leggendo l'attuale
bozza di HTML5, sezione 4.8.7.1:

http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/

"User agents may support any video and audio codecs and container 
formats.

(It would be helpful for interoperability if all browsers could 
support the same codecs. However, there are no known codecs that 
satisfy all the current players: we need a codec that is known to 
not require per-unit or per-distributor licensing, that is 
compatible with the open source development model, that is of 
sufficient quality as to be usable, and that is not an additional 
submarine  patent risk for large companies. This is an ongoing 
issue and this section will be updated once more information is 
available)"

inoltre, nella sezione 4.8.9, vedo chiari riferimenti a Theora
e Vorbis, oltre che ad OGG come formato di container.

La notizia che riporti e' abbastanza vecchia, quindi puo' anche
darsi che in una bozza intermedia la "sparizione" ci sia stata.

Ciao,
