First Drafts of Widgets 1.0: Access Requests Policy; URI Scheme

The Web Applications Working Group has published two First Public Working Drafts: Widgets 1.0: Access Requests Policy and Widgets 1.0: URI Scheme. The former defines the security model controlling network access from within a widget, as well as a method for widget authors to request that the user agent grant access to certain network resources. The latter defines a "widget:" URI scheme to help identify resources within a widget package. Learn more about the Rich Web Client Activity.
