Re: Status of incubations

Thanks, Marcos.  Here is a batch update for several repos that chromium
team members at Google are involved with.  This is not comprehensive - some
Google folks may respond separately, may have been missed, or may need
reaching out to.

Specs that are obsolete / should be archived:

   -

   https://github.com/WICG/display-override
   -

      Subsumed by
      https://wicg.github.io/manifest-incubations/#display_override-member.
      Generalizing, @dmurph suggests moving any explainer related to
      manifest-incubations into that repo.
      -

   https://github.com/WICG/file-handling
   -

      Subsumed by
      https://wicg.github.io/manifest-incubations/#file_handlers-member.

   -

      No longer pursuing
      -

   https://github.com/WICG/pwa-url-handler
   -

      Owned by @LuHuangMSFT. We believe this has been subsumed into
      https://github.com/WICG/web-app-launch and with confirmation should
      be archived.

      Requested this be archived
      <https://github.com/WICG/raw-clipboard-access/issues/8>. Subsumed by

Partially or soon to be shipping in Chromium-based browsers; continue
incubating:

   -

   https://github.com/WICG/get-installed-related-apps
   -

      Shipping in Chromium-based mobile browsers; continuing incubation
      with possibility of additional OS support.
      -

   https://github.com/WICG/shape-detection-api
   -

      Barcode shipped in chromium-based browsers.
      -

      Expecting to ship in 2023 in Chromium-based browsers


Shipping in Chromium-based browsers; spec maintained, continue incubating:

   -

   https://github.com/WICG/client-hints-infrastructure
   -

   https://github.com/WICG/cookie-store
   -

   https://github.com/WICG/crash-reporting
   -

   https://github.com/WICG/deprecation-reporting
   -

   https://github.com/WICG/digital-goods
   -

   https://github.com/WICG/entries-api
   -

      Shipping in all browsers w/ some minor differences. Long term desire
      is to obsolete this, but unlikely any time soon. One path
forward would be
      to merge spec into HTML + File API.
