Blink's Intent to Ship: A Feature Launch Guide

from Blink286 Hosted by Free Debreuil

The provided source outlines Blink's "Intent to Ship" (I2S) process, the final stage for launching new features in the Chromium web browser. This crucial step involves a public announcement and request for approval from Blink's API owners to enable a feature by default. The I2S serves to ensure cross-browser coordination, enforce quality and stability, and promote openness within the web community. Before an I2S can be sent, features must meet stringent internal requirements, including a stable specification, comprehensive web-platform tests, signals of interoperability from other vendors, and proven user/developer demand. The document details the specific content and format required for the I2S email sent to the blink-dev mailing list, emphasizing transparency regarding risks and providing ample evidence of the feature's readiness and adherence to Blink's core principles.
