Hello HTML, We marked the Presentation API "at risk" in HTML5.2 because it is only implemented in Chrome at the moment [1]. We've since heard from Anssi Kostiainen (chair of the Second Screen WG )that the Presentation API recently went into CR, and that they expect to move to PR when there is a second implementation [2]. Anssi mentions that if the reference to the Presentation API is dropped from the W3C HTML spec it will likely mean they reference the WHAT WG version of HTML instead. There is an intent to commit from Firefox [3], and two issues tracking progress [4] and [5], although there has been no recent activity on either. The question is whether we should pull the Presentation API out of HTML5.2, or leave it there and include a warning in the HTML5.2 spec that indicates the current state of interoperability. We've done this previously, with Promise rejection handling with rejectionhandled and unhandledrejection events in HTML5 1 for example [6]. Comments from the WG would be welcome, either here or on the Github issue [2]. This is the last thing we need to decide upon before we take HTML5.2 to PR, so prompt responses are appreciated. Léonie.
