So in terms of concrete updates, we'd need to fix - https://html.spec.whatwg.org/ - https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/ - http://dev.w3.org/csswg/cssom/ (sigh, still no https?) The other documents mentioned are either obsolete or forks of (sections of) the first. Once the LS/EDs are fixed, then we can let The Process take over and worry about the copy-and-pasting/errata/etc., but getting the LS/EDs right is the important part for implementers. Note that FrozenArray<T> is not a drop-in replacement for T[]. In particular, T[] is read-only by authors but mutable by UAs, whereas FrozenArray<T> is immutable. This might make things trickier. --- From: Travis Leithead [mailto:travis.leithead@microsoft.com] Sent: Thursday, July 16, 2015 11:45 To: public-webapps; Ian Hickson Subject: [WebIDL] T[] migration Hey folks, Now that WebIDL has added FrozenArray<> and dropped T[], it’s time to switch over! On the other hand, there are a number of specs that have already gone to Rec that used the old syntax. Recommendations: • HTML5 • Web Messaging Other references: • CSS OM • Web Sockets • WebRTC Legacy/Deprecated references: • TypedArrays (replaced by ES2015) • Web Intents Thoughts on what to do about this? Should we consider keeping T[] in WebIDL, but having it map to FrozenArray<>? Should we issue errata to those Recs?
