Great, another attempt to standardize something with no existing implementations. I predict it'll go the way of ECMAScript 4, SVG 2 and HTML 5.

- ZeroGravitas 18y agoQuote from Chris Blizzard: "The proposed spec [...] is a pretty light wrapper on top of OpenGL ES 2.0, with some changes to support some JavaScript pleasantries." http://www.0xdeadbeef.com/weblog/?p=1207 http://www.0xdeadbeef.com/weblog/?p=1207 So it's more like a port than a new standard. I'm also not sure how much your complaint applies to HTML 5 since that was originated by browser vendors wanting to standardize the new stuff they were already implementing and to reverse engineer and then compatibly implement how old stuff was implemented in Internet Explorer.
- cousin_it 18y agoYeah? Some quotes from the HTML 5 proposal: SQLTransactionCallback, UndoManager, RemoteEventTarget. My point stands.
