Well, activity on GitHub is always a good way of seeing what is 
currently being worked on, or what will appear soon :)

The next near term goal for HTML5 is getting a version which works in 
commercial (which includes sorting out password protection 
functionality).

With that we'll have a version for all editions and can then start 
iterating to add currently unimplemented functionality (network 
operations included), improving code size and improving performance.

Some of these present quite big challenges so it is very hard to give 
timescales. That being said, if there are specific features people would 
like to see implemented sooner rather than later, please do let us know 
(network operations are obviously quite high on the list!) as that will 
help us order them appropriately.

Warmest Regards,

Mark.
