Re: Agenda+ Refreshing the Web MIDI spec

(Sorry, was on jury duty)

There are actually 9 issues currently marked "ready for editing".  I have
been derelict.  :/  (However, I removed it from that issue, as Hongchan
rightly pointed out that AudioWorklet might be a more appropriate place to
add it.)

I think we should go ahead and republish now, and I'll try to wrap up all
the ready-for-editing bits in the next two months.
