Re: web security happenings

The problems are not necessarily caused by any specific spec on its
own. Many Web security issues occur because the components are
developed in isolation and people really don't have a good model for
how they behave as a group.

The IETF needs to be involved in this work. Quite how that happens is
another matter. One of the weaknesses of the IETF way of doing things
is that there is no clear mechanism for performing maintenance.

Isn't this W3C stuff?

It's important stuff - if they are not making progress on it, some SDO with 
people that have skill and expertise in this area should do work on it. A BOF 
is a great way to find out if we have people with the expertise and the 
 interest to do work. My gut feeling is that we probably do.
