All, The HTML Media Extensions Working Group charter [1] has been extended until 30 April 2018. The Working Group completed the Media Source Extensions specification on 17 November 2016 [2] and the specification is accumulating issues since then [3]. Following a recent W3C discussion on the maintenance of W3C Recommendations, for now, the best approach is to do maintenance in the Working Group, and extending the Working Group to allow that. As such, the Working Group is only allowed to make corrections that do not add new features [4] to its Recommendation(s) under this charter extension. Additionally, noting that the Call for Review for the Encrypted Media Extensions (EME) specification ended [5], the Director is still evaluating the feedback received. He has been evaluating the objections and discussing approaches to address the issues with the team, the TAG, the Working Group, supporters, objectors, and civil society. Finally, the Director is continuing to assess feedback in improving protections for security and privacy researchers by establishing best practices for responsible vulnerability disclosure. More information about the HTML Media Extensions Working Group can be found on its home page [6]. If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Philippe Le Hegaret <plh@w3.org>, HTML Media Extensions Working Group Team Contact. This extension follows section 5.2.5 of the W3C Process Document: https://www.w3.org/2017/Process-20170301/#charter-extension [1] https://www.w3.org/2013/09/html-charter.html [2] https://www.w3.org/TR/2016/REC-media-source-20161117/ [3] https://github.com/w3c/media-source/issues [4] https://www.w3.org/2017/Process-20170301/#correction-classes [5] https://www.w3.org/2017/Process-20170301/#ACReviewAfter [6] https://www.w3.org/html/wg/
