After discussion with the W3C, chair, and editors, I propose that we
extend the current charter for 9 months.
We also, since it is a deliverable at risk, will clarify the charter by
changing this sentence in the charter as well [1].
"The mission of the Web Cryptography Working Group
<http://www.w3.org/2012/webcrypto/>, part of the Security Activity
<http://www.w3.org/Security/Activity>, is to define a high-level API
providing common cryptographic functionality to Web Applications."

Thus deleting the word "high-level". I still hope we can deliver
something high-level personally, but that is obviously a lower priority
than getting the low-level, and thus that deliverable is risk.
Note we can go to Last Call *ahead* of schedule if things move quickly.
Everything else will remain in scope using the techniques given in the
charter, but we must be much tighter around use-cases for secondary
features.
If there are any concerns or objections, please put them to the mailing
list. We'll try to get consensus on this the next meeting!
cheers,
harry
