Browser Extension Community Group created

The Browser Extension Community Group has been launched:
  http://www.w3.org/community/browserext/

--------------------------------------------------

Problem:  There is no cross browser standard for building browser
extensions, which requires developers to create extensions for each
browser individually.


Proposal/Mission: The Browser Extension group will attempt to
standardize extension package structure, API, portability etc., across
browsers.
