The W3C is proposing a revised charter for:

  Web Application Security (WebAppSec) Working Group
  https://www.w3.org/2019/02/webappsec-2019-proposed-charter.html
  https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-new-work/2019Feb/0010.html

Mozilla has the opportunity to send comments or objections through
Friday, March 15.

Please reply to this thread if you think there's something we should
say as part of this charter review, or if you think we should
support or oppose it.  Given our involvement, we should probably
have some comment, even if it's simply in support.

A comparison with the current charter is:
https://services.w3.org/htmldiff?doc1=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2011%2Fwebappsec%2Fcharter-2017.html&doc2=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2019%2F02%2Fwebappsec-2019-proposed-charter.html
and the document's own summary of the changes is:

  Added Feature Policy

  Dropped User Interface Security and the Visibility API,
  Confinement with Origin Web Labels

  Origin-Wide Policy becomes Site-Wide Policy

(I'm happy about the addition of Feature Policy, since I think it's
important for, among other things, improvements to permission
prompts triggered from iframes.)

             Before I built a wall I'd ask to know
             What I was walling in or walling out,
             And to whom I was like to give offense.
