Hi WebKit,

I just wanted to let people know that I plan on updating the Media Source
implementation to the new 0.4
spec<http://html5-mediasource-api.googlecode.com/svn/tags/0.4/draft-spec/mediasource-draft-spec.html>.
The updated spec is intended to address a variety of concerns people had
with the original 0.3
version<http://html5-mediasource-api.googlecode.com/svn/tags/0.3/draft-spec/mediasource-draft-spec.html>that
got implemented.

The update will be tracked as https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83607.

My plan is to first update the signatures of the existing methods and then
follow up with the new methods as those features get implemented in the
Chromium code. I believe this will provide the easiest migration path for
people using the current implementation.

The changes to WebKit should be relatively minor and primarily constitute
changing existing method signatures and forwarding the new methods to the
Chromium code.

Aaron
