> Hello TAG, HTML WG, XHTML2 WG, WebApps WG, HCG Chairs, Bennett,
>
> The W3C Mobile Web Best Practices Working Group has been developing a
> set of guidelines for Content Transformation proxies (i.e. non
> transparent HTTP proxies) to address some of the needs identified in
> particular on mobile networks.
>
> These guidelines have just been published as a Last Call Working  
> Draft:
> http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/WD-ct-guidelines-20080801/
>
> The Last Call review period extends until September 16, and we  
> would be
> grateful if your group could review the document, in particular:
>  * for the TAG, since the document relates to its issue
> genericResources-53 and its accompanying finding
> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/doc/alternatives-discovery (the BPWG will
> send comments on that finding next week)
>  * for the HTML and XHTML2 Working Groups, since the document makes  
> use
> of the (X)HTML link element to give hints on content transformation
> proxies
>  * for the WebApps Working Group, since the document has some  
> provision
> on specific behavior for XmlHTTPRequest type of requests (as  
> highlighted
> by one of our own comments on the XmlHTTPRequest spec:
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapi/2008May/0064.html )
>  * for the HyperText CG, as the official point of liaison with the  
> Open
> Mobile Alliance which might want to submit a review on the document
> given its implications on the mobile ecosystem
>
> (the Working Group is also requesting a review from the IETF HTTPBis
> Working Group [1], and will do as well with targeted mobile web
> developers communities which have been vocal on that topic).
>
> If your group wants to submit a review but is unable to provide it in
> that timeframe, please let us know so that we can determine a possible
> extension of the review period.

> Thanks,
