But it is what we want to build > this upon eventually. I’ve fixed the model according to these discussions: 1. We’ve separated the read operation and the “annotated task read operation.” The former uses Fetch’s notion of a body, which is a byte stream, and so is convenient to work with. Hopefully, it should allow plugging right back into Fetch. 2. The methods now invoke an annotated task read operation. http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/FileAPI/#reading-data-section — A*
