This list or the WHATWG list, yes.

Thanks. I've commented on the bug.

If anyone wants to discuss things at a particular time, they are welcome 
to do so. :-)

If you would like to discuss them with me, I'm happy to do it by e-mail or 
on IRC. I'm always in #webapps on W3net and #whatwg on Freenode. Also, if 
there's an IE-specific channel I could join, let me know; I'm in #webkit, 
#chromium, and Mozilla's #developers, but I couldn't find an IRC channel 
where the IE devs hang out. :-(

Stable. The plan is to add cross-domain stuff to shared workers later this 
year, if implementations catch up with the current spec.

That's resolved now; Tab has volunteered to do the W3C pubrules stuff. As 
far as I'm concerned the spec can go to REC whenever.

I'm not aware of a test suite currently.
