WebAssembly - First Public Working Draft!

Hi All,

I'm pleased to announced we have our First Public Working Draft for
WebAssembly!
https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/6838
This include our Core Spec
<https://www.w3.org/TR/2018/WD-wasm-core-1-20180215/>, JS Interface
<https://www.w3.org/TR/2018/WD-wasm-js-api-1-20180215/>, and Web API
<https://www.w3.org/TR/2018/WD-wasm-js-api-1-20180215/>.
(Editors drafts here <https://webassembly.github.io/spec/>).

After some "mandatory fun" with Sphinx, MathJax, katex, bikeshed, the many
W3C publication checkers, and infinite yaks shaved, the extensive efforts
of our editors Andreas Rossberg and Daniel Ehrenberg, and W3C help from
Eric Prud'hommeaux, we have our first official WG draft!

Triggered by this draft, the W3C has sent out a Patent Policy Call for
Exclusions
<https://www.w3.org/Consortium/Patent-Policy-20040205/#sec-Exclusion> for
WebAssembly.

There's still lots to do to get to a Candidate Recommendation. At the last
meeting we discussed chapter reviewers, as well as a number of
typographical issues to sort through (our spec has 3500+ equation
fragments!). If you're interested in helping, please consider getting
involved with the Working Group.

Thanks everyone involved!
