Designer friends: The @webperfwg finally has a twitter account, which means that it needs a logo. I have many skills, but design is not one of 'em. Can y'all help putting something together? (DM me if you can help. We'll name a ResourceTiming attribute after you. JK. Or am I?)
The #WebRTC Working Group is still iterating on these use cases, to make sure they understand the full range of needs and their priorities.
If you want to chime in, head to the github repo! github.com/w3c/webrtc-nv-use…
The use cases document highlight some of these needs: improved performance for gaming, mobility, video conferencing, file sharing, #IoT; improved support for processing audio and video feeds e.g. for #MachineLearning.
#WebRTC is already widely used to power videoconferences and collaboration systems, in Web browsers and in other ecosystems (e.g. native apps). But its use has expanded beyond that initial core, leading to needs for more features and more optimizations.
As #WebRTC gains more and more adoption, it needs to accommodate a growing number of usages, which the Working Group is expecting to address over time with these relatively small extensions (and probably bigger ones down the line…)
In TC39, we're looking into expanding the JavaScript standard library. I'd be really interested in your feedback in the proposal's issue tracker. github.com/tc39/proposal-jav…
To continue the work on other features that would not pass the mark in terms of interoperability in the short term, the proposal on the table is to have a companion #CommunityGroup to incubate these ideas further w3.org/community/
The proposed new charter for the @svgwg suggests to focus its work on stabilization and interoperability testing of the core SVG 2 specification towards its finalization

What do you think of this proposal for an http header that expresses the viewport? Feedback welcome! What would you build with this? discourse.wicg.io/t/proposal…
Among other inputs to the work, an exploration of bringing SSML into HTML would help provide indications on pronunciation of HTML pages:
