RE: CfC: Publish WebCodecs codec registrations

Apologies, I should have included the detail on Process 2021, having discussed it at the last Media WG meeting [1].

Taking that into account, let's run a separate CfC at a later date for moving the WebCodecs Codec Registry to the Registry Track (and potentially also for other registries in the Media WG).

So the present CfC is only for publication of the new registrations as FPWD, to become WG Notes, and updating the WebCodecs Codec Registry.

Thanks,

Chris

For WebCodecs codec registrations specs, I note that publication here means publication as First Public Working Draft, and that these specs are intended to become Working Group Notes.

Boilerplate and pubrules got updated with the switch to Process 2021 and automated publication fails for the time being (I'll look into it next week), but the Codec Registry and AVC Codec registration spec are already setup for automated publication, and so they get republished as Working Draft whenever the Editor's Draft is updated.

For the WebCodecs Codec Registry spec, we talked about switching to the Registry track now that Process 2021 is in place. Does this call for consensus cover that switch? One practical impact is that, as opposed to Notes, registries do get reviewed by the Advisory Committee (review starts when spec gets published as a Candidate Registry), and a call for wide review needs to be issued.

Thanks,
Francois.
