This is both still true though I made some progress incorperating  
feedback. (Need to make sure everything relevant made XMLHttpRequest 2 too  
though.

Done.

I changed my mind on this. Given the reply from Björn in particular I  
don't think there's anything that needs to be done here.

I rejected this proposal in another e-mail.


It seems therefore that Access Control is ready for Last Call and it seems  
slightly safer to wait with XMLHttpRequest 2 until we have had all the  
feedback on XMLHttpRequest 1 for which the comment deadline is Monday June  
2.
