I did some updates to the spec this morning. We still have six open issues: 1. Cross-platform persistent identifiers: https://github.com/WebAudio/web-midi-api/issues/124 - I think this should be solved along with VSTis and virtual MIDI ports. I think this can be closed as essentially a duplicate of #45 below. 2. MIDI input/output disconnection: https://github.com/WebAudio/web-midi-api/issues/79 - This is pending some final wrangling mostly between myself and Takashi; should be resolved in the next day or two. 3. General MIDI support: https://github.com/WebAudio/web-midi-api/issues/110 - I would like to won't-fix and close this. The only thing I could see us doing here is some way of the user specifying a "default General MIDI device". As these are usually no longer present (Windows and OSX don't ship a default device anymore, IIUC), and features that require user configuration tend to almost never work (and the user could config it in the web app anyway), I would strongly suggest we won't-fix this. 4. Web MIDI should be available from Workers: https://github.com/WebAudio/web-midi-api/issues/99 - I think we need to decide if this is critical for v1 or should simply be a future enhancement. 5. Does MIDIPort.id need to be origin-scoped: https://github.com/WebAudio/web-midi-api/issues/79. I think the answer to this is "no", as per outlined in issue comments. 6. Virtual MIDI ports: https://github.com/WebAudio/web-midi-api/issues/45 - I think we agreed at the FTF this should be v2. As I said, I think point 2 will be worked out in the next couple of days; the rest of these I am actively proposing resolutions for (1 resolved as a dupe of 6, 3 and 5 won't-fixed, and 4 moved to v2.) I would welcome input on these issues. -Chris
