I updated the first spec ("Web Notifications" [1]), with the following
significant changes:
 - constructor model for creating new notifications, i.e.:
       new Notification("mail.png", "New Mail") rather than
NotificationCenter.createNotification("mail.png", "New Mail")
 - exceptions no longer thrown from Notification.show() -- error callback is
invoked instead
 - changes to make the spec more consistent with HTML5 regarding
directionality and event model
 - fixed up examples to be consistent with the new structure

I'm continuing to work on the "Web URL Notifications" spec.
