CfC to publish a FPWD of Credential Management; ending April 17th.

Hello, lovely WebAppSecians. Remember way back in January when I sent out a
pre-CfC to prime the pump for the credential management API[1]? You've
probably been checking your inbox daily since then, waiting. Waiting.
Waiting.

Well, wait no longer! This is a real call for consensus to publish the
following draft of "Credential Management" as a First Public Working Draft:

https://w3c.github.io/webappsec/specs/credentialmanagement/published/2015-04-FPWD.html

The document describes an imperative API enabling a website to request a
user’s credentials from a user agent, and to help the user agent correctly
store user credentials for future use.

This CfC will end in a week (on the 17th of April). Feedback, positive and
negative, to public-webappsec@ is welcome, as are bugs (which you are
cordially invited to file at
https://github.com/w3c/webappsec/issues/new?title=CREDENTIAL:%20).

Thanks!
