WebAPI Meeting Details

Notes

any quotamanager plans come out of work week?
- solid plans for internal quotamanager API (Q1 goal)
- asm.js caching is a new client of the quotamanager
- moving to PBackground very soon
sync IDB
- plan is to land on nightly/aurora only and gather feedback
- feedback will inform further discussions at spec level and enabling on release
HTML5 context menu
- Blink is going to implement this; do we have incompatibilities in our implementation?
  - https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/d/msg/blink-dev/MkEDloT-yu8/kNOMLE_Y1fcJ
- Jan says we should update our implementation to match the latest spec
- Demo: http://people.mozilla.org/~prouget/bugs/context-menu-test/test.html
async IDB
- Ben is close to finishing opening of databases on PBackground
  - hoping to land PBackground (has mrbkap's r+) this week
- piece of transaction scheduling that is part of appshell; needs to be changed for workers
- Gaia's needs of async IDB are late so it's not the end of the world that we're late :)
NetInfo
- seems Blink may not implement this
- Application name
- Our implementation will handle dynamically injected elements fine, but it will always pick the last element injected, which violates the spec (the spec says to pick the first). We will run with the non-conforming behavior for now and see if anyone notices ... or ask Hixie to change the spec :)
Ben is grinding through his review queue
- up next is Jan's structured clone storage thing
