Dear Web Payments Working Group, I am very happy to announce that the Editors have closed those Payment Request API issues we had identified as "to be closed” [0] before finalizing version 1 of the specification. On behalf of the co-Chairs and myself, I thank the Editors for their great work. Many thanks to Marcos Caceres in particular for keeping things moving. As we discussed [1], the next steps for Payment Request API, Payment Method Identifiers, and Basic Card are: - Get review of the changes since the 9 July 2018 release of the specification (the previous announced Candidate Recommendation). In particular I plan to request review from the W3C Security IG and the W3C Privacy IG. - After review, request to advance to Candidate Recommendation (required due to substantive changes since the July 2018 release). - Once republished as a Candidate Recommendation, work with browser vendors to ensure we have two implementations of each feature, as represented in the implementation report [2]. - Once we have sufficient implementation, request to advance to Proposed Recommendation. (Basic Card will become a Working Group Note.) According to our timeline tool [3], if we advance to Candidate Recommendation by 19 February, and if all goes optimally, we will publish two Recommendations no sooner than early May. Congratulations to all, Ian [0] https://github.com/w3c/payment-request/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3ACR-Exit [1] https://www.w3.org/2019/01/24-wpwg-minutes#item02 [2] https://w3c.github.io/test-results/payment-request/all.html [3] https://w3c.github.io/spec-releases/milestones/?cr=2019-02-19&nowebmaster=true&noFPWD=true -- Ian Jacobs <ij@w3.org> https://www.w3.org/People/Jacobs/ Tel: +1 718 260 9447
