Chaals,
Overall, I think we support this proposal but have some questions I
would like to get clarifications on:
Minutes of the discussion, to help jog your memory:
http://www.w3.org/2013/04/25-webapps-minutes.html#item04 (I apoogise for
not linking those from the original CfC message).
Maybe I don't recall but is SysApps asking Webapps to take the manifest
aspect?
Yes.
Or is this something Webapps thinks is its right because of the prior
focus on Widgets packaging? I don't recall case of a group unilaterally
taking back something similar to something else it had worked on in the
past.
No, the idea is that we all agree on this.
If SysApps did approve but in the end disapproved with the result, what
recourse would they have?
Comment on the spec and say "that's terrible, it should be...". If
necessary as formal objections to moving forward. As a practical matter I
think nearly all of sysapps members are also represented in webapps. So I
would be surprised if there were a real issue.
Woudnt it be better to have this as a joint deliverable then?
No, there is a handful of frustrating overhead to do that which, if it is
as unnecessary as it seems in this case, the people who would have to deal
with it (chairs, editors, staff contacts) preferred to avoid.
Thanks,
Bryan Sullivan

Subject: CfC - working on manifest
Hi,
at the face to face meeting we agreed to take back the work on a manifest
specification for apps, based on the current manifest draft from sysapps
[1] that was developed from the proposal [2] included in our charter [3],
and to leave the runtime part of the work with Sysapps.
This is a formal Call for Consensus on that resolution. Silence will be
taken as assent. Responses will be accepted up to the end of the day
Tuesday 21 May.
for the chairs
