Hi Takeshi, All,

Given this status, and in the absence of other feedback, I think the 
Streams API should remain in WebApps' charter (at least for now). Then 
later, the work may proceed (if there is still agreement an additional 
API would be useful); otherwise, if there is agreement to stop the work, 
the work can be stopped (and a WG Note published).

-Thanks, AB
