Widget Packaging and XML Configuration a Recommendation; three other Web Apps specifications published

The Web Applications Working Group published a W3C Recommendation today of Widget Packaging and XML Configuration. This specification standardizes a packaging format and metadata for a class of software known as widgets. Unlike traditional user interface widgets (e.g., buttons, input boxes, toolbars, etc.), widgets as specified in this document are full-fledged client-side applications that are authored using technologies such as HTML and then packaged for distribution.
The Working Group also published today:
  • a Working Draft of Widget URI scheme, which defines the widget URI scheme and rules for dereferencing a widget URI, which can be used to address resources inside a package.
  • a Note of Requirement For Standardizing Widgets, which lists the design goals and requirements that specifications would need to address in order to standardize various aspects of widgets.
  • a Last Call Working Draft of Web IDL, which can be used to describe interfaces that are intended to be implemented in web browsers. Web IDL is an IDL variant with a number of features that allow the behavior of common script objects in the web platform to be specified more readily. Last call comments welcome through 18 October 2011.
