I was thinking about learning HTML5 (in fact, I’ve leant a bit of CANVAS object).
But my question is if it would be reasonable to learn it: is it already fully standard?, or is it going to change?
Thanks.

HTML5 (or just HTML) will never be “stable”. The official specification documents what browsers are doing, and it’ll always be behind what different browsers are capable of doing. Instead you should consider each piece/feature on its own: is it supported in the browsers you need it in, and if not, can you degrade to a different experience for users browsing from non-compatible browsers?
A really good resource to have in your toolbox is http://html5doctor.com/. They have detailed information that is updated frequently on most of the features grouped together under the HTML5 label.
