I remember at least one other person from Opera who was at XTech who said it sounded like a good idea to consider putting together a common cross-browser "web widgets" spec. So... I don't know what kind of schedule you're working under for your implementation, but it seems like it would be a good idea to get some focused discussion on this going soon. Perhaps we could set up a separate "widgets API" (or whatever) mailing list And, FWIW, I planning to be Mountain View June 18-20 for another meeting, so if you thought it'd be worthwhile to have a face-to- face discussion, maybe we can meet (in the evening) on one of those days. --Mike
