WebAuthn members and interested parties,



The WebAuthn WG recently published its FPWD and is aiming for CR in Septemb=
er and is asking for wide review of the specification.



This specification defines an API that enables web pages to access WebAuthn=
 compliant strong cryptographic credentials through browser script.
