We at Mozilla just finished our implementation of Shared Workers. It will be turned on in the nightly releases starting tomorrow (or maybe thursday) and will hit release on April 29th.
So if we are only reason we're doing anything here is lack of a 2nd implementation, then we might already be good. That said, I don't know what the test suite status is etc, so I'm totally fine with punting Shared Workers for now. However I'd really like to see us start a level 2 of the spec. The synchronous messaging channels is something else I'd like to see done there. / Jonas On Tue, Dec 10, 2013 at 11:14 AM, Travis Leithead <travis.leith...@microsoft.com> wrote: > During TPAC 2013 in Shenzhen, I took an action item [1][2] to remove Shared > Workers from the W3C Web Workers spec [3] in order for the spec to pass the > first of the two stated CR exit criteria in the spec itself. > > > > It is my intention to start this work soon.
