W3C Web Crypto APIs - TAG review

Dear all,

This is to inform you that I have been discussing with the W3C TAG members to urge them to actually review the Web Crypto APIs specifications [1].
They might come back to us with the result of their review in the coming weeks.
Nevertheless, when I presented the principles of the API, they have mentioned few ideas for improving the future-prooveness of the Web Crypto API specification, such as :

-          Making sure that a set of algorithms is supported across the platforms (coming back to our never-ending discussion on mandating versus recommending algorithms)

-          Allowing to plug-in proprietary/home made algorithms (but more as a remark for future work, I guess)
Anyway, lets be prepared to get some interesting view from them.

Regards,
Virginie
