My recall is a bit rusty on that one, but I think that the situation was 
that:

• WebApps is not chartered to publish this, so a CG was created.

• But having the discussion on the CG list seemed like a bad idea since 
everyone is here, so the mailing list for discussion was decided to be 
public-webapps.

I actually pinged Aryeh about this a week or two ago, but I haven't 
heard back. I'd be happy to take over as editor for this spec, it's a 
feature I've wanted to have work right forever.

In order to make that happen (assuming that Aryeh agrees, or doesn't 
speak up), I propose the following:

• Since I'm financed to work on HTML, transition this to an HTML 
extension spec (this probably only requires a few changes to the header).

• The discussion can stay here (wherever people prefer that I'm already 
subscribed to — I really don't care).

• The spec gets published through the HTML WG, since I believe it's 
actually viably in scope there already.

All of the above assumes you're all happy with it, and the HTML people 
too. I reckon it could work though.
