IWCG Coordination Thread for October 5th, 2018

Hello, immersive web folks!

Here is another regular summary email of work in the Immersive Web CG.

If you feel that an Issue or PR needs attention then use this thread to
coordinate that work.

If you feel that an Issue or PR is stalled and the group is talking past
each other then reach out directly to me and I'll either add it to a
Tuesday call or work with you to find another way to get it unstuck.

*CG Activity Summary:*


*Proposals:*

   - Trevor Flowers (that's me!) filed a PR to clarify the proposals process
   <https://github.com/immersive-web/proposals/pull/28> (feedback
   encouraged!)
   - Alberto Elias filed Issue #30
   <https://github.com/immersive-web/proposals/issues/30> to discuss a
   common API for virtual keyboard
   - Trevor Flowers moved the AR Lite Mode Issue
   <https://github.com/immersive-web/proposals/issues/29> from webxr to

   WebXR Device API
   - JeroMiya weighed in on security aspects of Issue 15
   <https://github.com/immersive-web/proposals/issues/15> about
   multitasking
