Context: while technically with a new name "Commerce", this is the replacement/follow-on for the existing Web Payments Interest Group (Payments IG) which expires around the same time Commerce IG is to start. https://www.w3.org/2014/04/payments/webpayments_charter.html The chairs are the same set of three people. And while W3C's HTML diff tool has limitations, it does seem that most of the charter is dramatically different: http://services.w3.org/htmldiff?doc1=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2014%2F04%2Fpayments%2Fwebpayments_charter.html&doc2=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2017%2F03%2Fcommerce-charter.html > Mozilla has the opportunity to send support, comments, or objections > through Monday, August 28.

One glaring difference is that the previous/current Payments IG has a long "Dependencies and Liaisons" section, while the Commerce IG has none (not even an explicit "liason" with the Web Payments Working Group), that seems like an odd omission. I'd like to hear feedback from Marcos (cc'd) on how/why this group will complement or help our work in the Web Payments WG (does not seem to be addressed by the proposed Commerce IG charter).
