Re: Specs using Web IDL

Using LC to get detailed review seems fine.  I suppose it will be in the
interests of authors of specs dependent on Web IDL to ensure that the
details are correct before it gets more mature.

I’m hoping we can go to LC soon.  I’m mostly done with the syntax
changes mentioned in
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2009AprJun/1122.html
(not checked in yet, though).  These are the remaining things to be
addressed before LC:

  * Testing to see if the defaults for [Null] and [Undefined] are
    correct

  * Decide what to do with passing too many/few arguments
    http://www.w3.org/mid/20090622005322.GB27182@arc.mcc.id.au

  * Restricting [[Class]]
    http://www.w3.org/mid/Pine.LNX.4.62.0903072358030.2690@hixie.dreamhostps.com

  * Deal with use of [Supplemental] in HTML 5
    http://www.w3.org/mid/Pine.LNX.4.62.0906190537200.16244@hixie.dreamhostps.com

  * Define Date (or make it possible to be defined)

  * Define sequences/ByteArray
