New async DOM effort / list

[Chris Harrelson]

Hi,

A bunch of us recently held an informal meeting to review the “async DOM” problem space and re-start efforts to make progress.

Async DOM refers to a set of proposals to fix responsiveness problems related to the DOM being updated all-at-once, and available only on the main thread. There have been many recent (and not-so-recent) discussions regarding these proposals, including interest from frameworks at the Chrome Dev summit, and I think now is the time to start making more progress on them.

Documents related to the meeting and current work are being collected in this github repo for now. I have also created a new asyn...@chromium.org mailing list for further discussion. Please subscribe there if you are interested in more updates and discussion.

Thanks,

Chris
