Hey all, I searched the archive at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/ and checked out the https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webcomponents/raw-file/tip/spec/templates/index.html#definitions and https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webcomponents/raw-file/tip/spec/custom/index.html specs, but couldn't find anything about this in them: are there provisions in the spec (or is it in the works) to add a new link type so that if some person A defines a stack of useful templates, and person B wants to use those templates, they can include them on their own page using <link rel="templates" href="http://personA/templates.html"> (or rel="components", or some other relation name that makes sense for the role the link plays)? I was thinking about this in terms of using web components for something like Mozilla's Popcorn Maker, where it would be really cool if we could define all our components as templates, and then tell everyone "this is our collection of templates, go grab popcorn.webmaker.org/templates.html if you want to use these on your own pages!". I really love the idea of web components, but it feels like being able to share them in the same way you can share .js or ..css files would make them ridiculously powerful on the future web =) - Mike "Pomax" Kamermans Mozilla Foundation
