We are building the technology out in the open, transparently. Anyone can join the group. There are no fees, there are no prerequisites for joining. You can read the minutes from every one of the design meetings, and even listen to the audio here (we record everything): http://payswarm.com/minutes/
That page looks like the group may be no longer as active as it used to be.
Note that the mozPay() API is centralized, which even folks at Mozilla will tell you is not ideal.
In what sense is it centralized? Locked to a single payment service provider?
The article says: “Mozilla plans to work with other vendors through the W3C to reach consensus on a common API that supports web payments in the best way possible. After shipping in Firefox OS, Mozilla plans to add navigator.mozPay() to Firefox for Android and desktop Firefox.”
I would add that those discussions at W3C should not only include “other vendors”, but also other stakeholders, internationally. This is a way too important topic to be in the hands of “vendors” alone.
Where specifically in W3C is this going to be addressed?
