Detailed explainer for Web NN API #3

Closed jbingham closed 4 years ago

jbingham commented 4 years ago

We at Google are concerned there is insufficient detail in this incubation to proceed to a standard. Could the CG have a conversation about the potential for creating a Working Group prior to drafting this charter? For example, it would be great to see a detailed Explainer fleshed out first.

Let’s clarify what the rationale is for this approach, as opposed to others, and why some feel it’s ready to move to the standard track.

@jbingham, thanks for bumping the priority of this exercise.

The WebNN API editors @wchao1115 @huningxin would appreciate more specific questions (similarly to #2) the explainer doc should provide answers to. That way the doc can cater to its audience the best.

@jbingham, could you take the lead on soliciting the questions?

I’ll drop some references below.

The explainer has been discussed on CG calls, most recently 01 Oct 2020 with actions taken to improve the explainer:

The next opportunity for discussing the proposed Working Group is the WebML CG Virtual Meeting at TPAC 2020 – 22 October 2020 - 14:00-15:00 UTC+0:
