There is sufficient interest in CORS such that we should continue to work on it. As such, I don't think any type of "formal decision" re publication is needed.

Although this and other recent and related threads have indeed re- hashed some previous discussions, among some of the suggestions made are:

* CORS' security considerations section needs improvements

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2010AprJun/ 0625.html http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2010AprJun/ 0630.html

* Need security analysis e.g. with multi-party deployments; "test the security properties of CORS" (e.g. versus UMP)

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2010AprJun/ 0645.html

* Need usage informatin for the app developer and server admin; when is CORS safe to use; which is easier to use; guidelines for not "falling prey to attacks with CORS"

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2010AprJun/ 0543.html http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2010AprJun/ 0646.html http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2010AprJun/ 0648.html

* CORS needs text about Confused Deputy

Is anyone willing to contribute to the above?
