Note that the APA WG prefers groups to run a self-review around the time of FPWD. Let us know when you have done it. Get advice on how to do that at https://w3c.github.io/apa/fast/checklist.html.

If you still want us to review your spec, please provide the information below.

In the issue title above add the document name followed by the date of this request.

• name of spec to be reviewed:

  • Portable Network Graphics (PNG) Specification (Third Edition)

  • https://www.w3.org/TR/2022/WD-png-3-20221025/

• Do you need a reply by a particular date?

  • No

• Please point to the results of your own self-review (see https://w3c.github.io/apa/fast/checklist.html)

  • FAST review

• Where and how to file issues arising?

  • PNG-spec GitHub repo, preferably one issue per comment

• Pointer to any explainer for the spec?

  • No, this is a maintenance update of an old and widely deployed specification

Other comments:

We are heavily constrained by the excellent backwards compatibility with PNG images since 1994.

We are primarily interested in comments on the new (or newly-standardized) features
