Various notes on the formation of the WhatWg (Web App Pattern Language). The term "Web Application" in this context refers to applications accessed over the World Wide Web by using a Web browser. This group is not attempting to describe [APIs] for writing high-end sophisticated programs such as office productivity suites, graphics manipulation packages, or 3D games... This working group aims to make their development easier, and hopes to specify new technologies that make it possible to make much prettier and more usable interfaces with less dependence on complex scripts, less dependence on server-generated pages, and a more seamless user experience. For example, currently HTML forms do not specify a way to specify that a control is a required control that must be filled in before submission: such features have to be scripted explicitly.
Update: Joel Spolsky's wishlist
