I was vaguely aware of this, and did some related work with our media.mozGetMetadata call. I eventually dropped that project: there was little feedback that developers found native metadata exposure useful. For Firefox OS we just re-parse the resource in js. This spec is better than it was when I last looked early this year in that it's much smaller and cleaner. It's still complex, but it does define standard objects for expressing common metadata properties, which is useful. There remains considerable work in defining how to fill in those objects from data embedded in various image, audio and video formats in use on the web. Thus I think we can be positive about this recommendation, but I don't expect we will be the first to implement it. I would like to see some maturity as a standard interface for js libraries and web services before implementing it natively. Editorial: Section 4.3.2 Examples in Javascript "it's" should be "its". -r _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
