Hi All,
The Web IDL spec is a normative dependency for many specs from several
Working Groups. As such, its progression along the Recommendation track
is very important and Cameron has agreed to the following schedule to
publish a Last Call Working Draft by June 30:
* June 20 - start a 1-week Call for Consensus (CfC) to publish a LCWD
* June 28 - assuming no major objections are raised during the CfC,
request publication of the LC
* June 30 - LCWD is published
For those unfamiliar with W3C process, please note Note the Process
Document states the following regarding the
significance/meaning of a LCWD:
[[

Purpose: A Working Group's Last Call announcement is a signal that:
* the Working Group believes that it has satisfied its relevant
technical requirements (e.g., of the charter or requirements document)
in the Working Draft;
* the Working Group believes that it has satisfied significant
dependencies with other groups;
* other groups SHOULD review the document to confirm that these
dependencies have been satisfied. In general, a Last Call announcement
is also a signal that the Working Group is planning to advance the
technical report to later maturity levels.

Thanks Cameron for leading this important spec and agreeing to the schedule!
