Since the CfC to stop work on DataCache was agreed, to make this status clear to anyone that reads this document via w3.org/TR/DataCache/, we should publish a WG Note for this document and clearly indicate work on the spec has stopped - just like we did with the Web SQL Database spec: http://www.w3.org/TR/webdatabase/#status-of-this-document If anyone objects to this, please speak up by March 20 at the latest. -AB On Mar/3/2011 8:25 AM, ext Arthur Barstow wrote: > Hi All, > > WebApps' "Programmable HTTP Caching and Serving" spec was last updated > by Nikunj in January 2010.
