I would leave it as, but add a note we might abandon it at some point in
favor of Components. No need to make an early call on that.


That sounds good to me.


Yeah, in drafting the new charter I think that is the approach I took.  
I'll check again when we have figured out what teh story is with things  
people wanted but needed to provide more info for...


cheers

Thanks for the list. Given we consider Web Components already in scope, 
I added it to the Additions Agreed section as a reminder it should be an 
explicit deliverable [1].


I expect that Web Components will completely supersed the XBL2 work
and address all of the use cases that originally motivated development
of XBL2.

XBL2, Component Model and WebApps' Rechartering [Was: Re: Consolidating charter changes]

2011-11-23 Thread Arthur Barstow

Hi All,

In the context of WebApps' rechartering, what are our plans and 
expectations for XBL2 and Component modeling? For example, what do we 
want to stop (e.g. move to WG Note); are there any new deliverable(s) we 
want to add?


(I just noticed we are coming up on five years since the XBL2 CR was 
published.)

My expectation is that Doug will this information when he drafts our 
updated charter.


Comments on this doc and our future charter welcome. However, if we 
are going to add any new deliverables, I think there should be broad 
agreement on the spec, including prior commitment to drive the spec 
through all of the phases of the process including testing and 
implementations.


Chaals, IanF - I included some actions/questions for you (mostly 
recorded at the f2f meeting).

Hi Arthur!

I am a procedural n00b and apologize in advance if this is not exactly
what you're looking for. Let's iterate and get it to the digestible
point :)

In the next few months, I'll be working on and refining (with the help
of folks who are interested in the subject):

1) a detailed spec (I think it's called a working draft) for Web Components;

2) a Web Components explainer document, aimed at Web developers,
outlining how the component model works in conversational prose and
examples;

3) a comprehensive overview of goals, use cases, properties,
reasoning, and methodology behind the component model.

I expect that Web Components will completely supersed the XBL2 work
and address all of the use cases that originally motivated development
of XBL2.

All work is currently happening at
http://dglazkov.github.com/component-model/ and
http://wiki.whatwg.org/index.php?title=Component_Model.

As long as it doesn't slow me down, I am happy to adopt any procedural
conventions or places to work in -- if it's helpful in making WebApps
WG more coherent and beautiful.
