Hi Web Security,

Last year, we announced work in progress on new security work-areas,
then proposed as a re-chartering of the Web Cryptography Working Group.[1]

WebCrypto is concluding its work and we have identified two distinct
areas of potential new work: Web Authentication and Hardware-Based
Security. We propose to discuss draft charters for this work in a
plenary day breakout at TPAC (Wednesday).[2]

Web Authentication (based on an anticipated submission from FIDO 2):
  https://w3c.github.io/websec/web-authentication-charter

Hardware-Based Security:
  https://w3c.github.io/websec/hwsec-charter

We look forward to discussion at TPAC, here, and via github pull requests.

Best,
--Wendy
