Last week:

* Defined IPv6 parsing and serialization. Deferred to the IPv6 RFC for
syntax rules for now.
* Defined that host names are percent decoded.
* Updated XMLHttpRequest to use the URL Standard for URL parsing.
* Added a hook in the DOM for cross-document event dispatching.
* Started fleshing out URL scheme details:
http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/URL#Schemes

This week:

* Write a report on IDNA on my blog but leave it as undefined in the
standard for now as it is unclear what direction browsers are heading
in (if any).
* Look into https://github.com/cweb/url-testing
* Fix query parsing for URLs with non-relative scheme
* Hopefully make an initial attempt at defining about/javascript
schemes since not much work can be done on IDNA.
