We'd actually already been discussing this between the last participants.
Our current plan is:

  July 28, 29
  Mozilla office in Toronto

The w3c/webplatformwg page for the meeting should be up soon.

The next meeting after this will likely be at TPAC.

Thanks.

Re: Clipboard API: Proposal for asynchronous API

[Hallvord Reiar Michaelsen Steen]

Hi Gary,
good work! Some questions that have come up in discussion with
developers at Mozilla:

1) The existing DataTransfer API is purposefully designed to be used
for both copy/paste and drag-and-drop. If we add navigator.clipboard
to add asyncness to clipboard-style usage of the API, what about DnD?

2) If there are several large chunks of data on the clipboard, the
current navigator.clipboard proposal will probably still mean
shuffling lots of data around - if all those chunks need to be
processed before the promise callback. Have we considered a model
where DataTransfer itself is promise-ified? Something like
clipboardData.items[0].getAsPromise().then( ... )?
