So given that we've been pretty involved in the work in the
community group that led to this working group, I think we probably
should say something here.  I just talked to SC Chien and Joe Cheng
about our involment and ran this plan (although not the text) past
them.


I think we should abstain from the review, but abstain with
comments, saying something like:

  Although we've participated in the development of this work in the
  community group, this is an area that we're becoming less involved
  in.

  We're also concerned about the general applicability of this work
  to the Web.  Our own use of the subset of this API that we
  implement has been restricted to privileged apps on Firefox OS,
  and we're not aware of how it could fit in to the Web's security
  model.

Does this seem reasonable?
