Dom, I apologize for rolling back your changes!  I did this 
inadvertently (accursed CVS; silly me).  I'll revert back to your fixes.

[ + PLH ]

Thanks for the update Arun.

I just chatted with PLH in #webapps [1] and he will followup on the URI 
list about the registration process question you asked below. He and I 
agree with you that the completion of the scheme registration does not 
need to block LC.


All open bugs should be closed before a CfC for LC is started. 
Currently, I only know of the two bugs that Adrian filed:


  http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/track/products/19

Given this thread has served as a general heads-up re publishing an LC, 
I don't think we need a pre-LC comment period.

(Apologies for the tardiness of this response -- I only had 
intermittent access to this email account for the past few weeks).


I'm ok with publishing a LCWD after I address comments received on 
this listserv.  Right now, most of the spec issues have occurred in 
the listserv, without use of [Tracker], but I think it useful to start 
using [Tracker] as workflow here.


If not, what is the schedule and plan to get this spec LC ready?

In case people missed it, Arun started a discussion about the blob 
URI scheme on the URI mail list:


  http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/uri/2011May/.html


The URI listserv gave me some feedback which I intend to take into 
account (mainly, clarifying spec. changes, an explanation of why other 
schemes weren't chosen first including urn:uuid, and then a 
reinitation of the discussion), but I'm not certain what the correct 
course of action after I make the changes are.  I'm not sure that this 
scheme needs to be an IETF RFC, for example, but that's an open 
question.  I'm also not certain that this question needs to block LCWD 
status.


Course of action might be:

1. Fix spec. nits in ED based on feedback on listservs -- URI, 
public-webapps, and WHATWG.


2. Initiate LCWD based on ED.

I definitely hope to finish 1. by June 27.  Can we go straight to the 
LCWD process after that?

Publishing an update of File API spec

Hi Arun, Jonas, All,
