Subject: [Reminder] Guidelines for Web Content Transformation
Proxies: Last Call Working Draft
Dear chairs,
This is a reminder that the Last Call review period of the Guidelines
for Web Content Transformation Proxies ends at the end of the week. We
would be grateful if the group whose chairs are listed in the "To"
field
could discuss and review the document in their groups. If a group
would
like to review the document but needs additional time, please let
us know.
The document is available for review at:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/WD-ct-guidelines-20091006/
More information on the topics covered by the document that your group
might be interested to review can be found in the transition
announcement below.
Thanks,
Francois Daoust,

Hello TAG, HTML WG, XHTML2 WG, WebApps WG, HCG, Web Security
Context WG
Chairs,
This is a transition announcement for the Last Call Working Draft
of the
Guidelines for Web Content Transformation Proxies, published today
at:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/WD-ct-guidelines-20091006/
This set of guidelines for Web Content Transformation proxies
(i.e. non
transparent HTTP proxies) was developed by the W3C Mobile Web Best
Practices Working Group to address some of the needs identified in
particular on mobile networks, in accordance with the working group's
charter [1].
The document was published as Last Call a year ago under the title
"Content Transformation Guidelines", and you had been invited to
review
the specification back then. The Working Group received many comments
during the last call review period, and has been working on
updating the
guidelines since then. The group believes it has now addressed all
the
comments and decided to publish a second Last Call [2]. Status ref.
patent policy is available at [3].
This new Last Call review period extends until 6 November 2009,
and we
would be grateful if your group could review the document once
more, in
particular:
* for the TAG, since the document still relates to its issue
genericResources-53 and its accompanying finding:
http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/doc/alternatives-discovery
* for the HTML and XHTML2 Working Groups, since the document
makes use
of the (X)HTML link element to give hints on content
transformation proxies
* for the WebApps Working Group, since the document applies to
proxies
that may receive requests initiated by XmlHTTPRequest objects.
* for the HyperText CG, as the official point of liaison with the
Open
Mobile Alliance which might want to submit a review on the document
given its implications on the mobile ecosystem.
* for the Web Security Context WG, for the section on HTTPS link
rewriting.
(The Working Group is also requesting a review from the IETF HTTPBis
Working Group).
If your group wants to submit a review but is unable to provide it in
that timeframe, please let us know so that we can determine a
possible
extension of the review period.
The working group has just sent official replies to the commenters of
the previous Last Call. At this point of time, there are no formal
objections.
Thanks,
Francois Daoust,
Staff Contact of the Mobile Web Best Practices Working Group
