WebApps WG status for the 7 May 2010 HCG call

WebApps' publication status is available at:

  http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/wiki/PubStatus

Since my last WebApps WG status report to the HCG [1], new  
publications are:

* Widget Updates Over HTTP (new title): new WD published 13 April.  
This WD includes the Widget Updates PAG's recommendations

* Digital Signatures for Widgets (new title): new LCWD 15 April. To  
address comments submitted, a new LC will be published (tentatively  
11 May)

* Widget Access Request Policy (WARP): CR published 20 April

* View Mode Media Feature: LC published 20 April (comment period ends  
18 May); we request comments from the CSS community

The group will submit use case and requirements for interfaces  
related to view modes to the CSS WG's CSSOM spec. We still have an  
open action to provide Bert with some data related to our timeline  
expectations for the CSSOM spec:

There was a relatively lengthy thread "Client side JavaScript i18n  
API" related to adding I18N support to JavaScript. This could be an  
area where ECMA and W3C could work together. AFAIK, no WG in W3C is  
chartered to do the type of work being proposed. See:

The widgets sub-group is interested in moving from CVS to DVCS. If  
anyone has done this, I would be very interested in hearing about the  
experience.

Comments for WebApps's proposed charter extension ended 29 April:
