My understanding is that we have reached a proposal which respecifies
the "ports" argument to postMessage as an array of objects to
transfer, in such a way that we:
- Maintain 100% backward compatibility
- Enhance the ability to pass MessagePorts, so that the object graph
can refer to them as well
- Allow more object types to participate in transfer of ownership in the
future
To the best of my knowledge there are no active points of
disagreement. I think we are only waiting for general consensus from
all interested parties that this is the desired step to take.
If it is, I would be happy to draft proposed edits to the associated
specs; there are several, and the edits may be somewhat involved. I'd
also be happy to share the work with Ian or anyone else.
Concrete proposals should be helpful and it may make sense to first use
Bugzilla to capture the related issues for the various specs.
(If there are any access issues with Bugzilla, Mike Smith or I can help
with that.)
