Transferring the Presentation API spec from CG to WG

Hi All,

Now that the Working Group has been created, one of the first concrete tasks is to transfer the latest Presentation API specification [1] from the CG to the WG.

This means we should complete the following tasks (Francois - please chime in if some steps are missing or need adjusting):

* Resolve the current open pull requests. I’m hearing we’ve reached consensus on the related issues, so the editor can move on and update the spec.

* Make a snapshot of the current Presentation API.

* Release the snapshot as an updated “W3C Community Group Final Report” and give it a unique and stable URL in the w3.org space.

* Make the bleeding edge spec use the W3C Technical Report style. A good first step is to set the document’s maturity to Editor’s Draft and update its style accordingly.

In addition, I suggest we share the spec infrastructure with other W3C WGs going forward and transfer the “presentation-api” repository from “webscreens” to the “w3c” GitHub org [2]. We should be able to easily transfer the repo with all of its issues, PRs etc. and the GitHub Pages should also redirect automatically.

Francois - since you have owner privileges for “webscreens” already, you should be able to do the transfer if you become an owner for “w3c” org as well.

Thanks,

-Anssi (Second Screen Presentation WG Chair)
