This spec is pretty clearly a "programming interface > for client-side development".

The Charter also says "Per section 6.2.3 of the W3C Process document, any substantive changes to the charter (e.g. additional Recommendation-track documents not included in this charter) will follow the Advisory Committee Review process.". In this case, it seems like we should follow the precedence used with the other specs that were split from HTML5 and moved to WebApps, thus this new spec would need to be added to WebApps Charter before WebApps can publish it. Anyway, I'll ask the Team for advice on the way forward and we should move this administrative thread to WebApps Member list. -Art Barstow
