Move Web Locks to Normative Specifications section #73

Closed saschanaz closed 2 years ago

saschanaz commented 3 years ago

(Following #70)

Since Google already shipped it and Mozilla is now prototyping it (thread), it's probably time to consider taking it as a normative spec.

Absolutely. It’s already in our updated as something we plan to adopt:

https://github.com/w3c/webappswg/blob/1bfaf6bfbc2ed9e320a5d64b16dfe384b82eb77c/charter/draft-charter-2021.html#L549

In the meantime, please keep working on the spec and make sure it’s in the best shape possible for us to bring over to the W3C.

Can someone clarify what is holding this back?

marcoscaceres commented 2 years ago

Nothing. I just need to send a pull request to the draft charter. There were some other formal objections that delayed the charter renewal, but not related to this.
