This is my first pass review (already found problems). I may try to review in more depth to see what (if any) specific wording changes there are in the charter (is there a paragraph by paragraph diff avaiable?) > New deliverables: > Microdata This should be dropped from the charter (FO). Ironic to see this since Firefox (release!) just dropped support for Microdata (a form of incubation failure at the least), and last time it was brought up in HTML WG, no one bothered to step up to edit it so it got abandoned as a note (2013). > Removed as deliverables: > Streams; URL; XHR1 This seems good to me, and reflective of the reality of referencing equivalent WHATWG specs, and increasingly positive culture towards doing so. > Marked as deliverables to be taken up if incubation suggests likely success: > Background Synchronisation; Filesystem API; FindText API; HTML Import; Input > Methods; Packaging; Quota API This section is confusing and weakly worded. Expanded just below this link: https://www.w3.org/2016/08/web-platform-charter-draft.html#web-workers as <h4>Potential deliverables</h4> (no id / fraglink) Either these are some sort of odd pre-incubation special treatment (bad / unnecessary in a charter), or if this is a claim that the listed specs *have* passed incubation, I'd expect citations that document as such (not just a link to an intent template). Otherwise wait for specs to pass incubation, document as such, and then propose a charter update with actual (not "potential") deliverables. I'd prefer that these "Potential deliverables" be dropped (FO), unless citations are provided to incubation successes, and if so, then just make them "deliverables".
