W3C Web Crypto WG : Promises - review of specifications

Hello Ryan, Alex,
TAG recommends to ask public-script-coord@w3.org to review deliverables including Promises (see below). 
Is it something that we should also do ? Or do we consider extensive review of Alex as a quality stamp ?
Regards,
Virginie

The best list for that feedback is actually public-script-coord@w3.org. I would recommend you start there. Otherwise, please see the Task Scheduler API Specification [1], which has been reviewed by both Alex and Annevk - and they said that the way that spec uses promises in prose and in WebIDL is correct. 

Regardless, I've added the Network Discovery spec to the TAG's spec review list. Thanks for bringing it to the TAG's attention:
