http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/track/issues/245
14:31:50 [achuter]
Long ago we decided not to define an advanced delivery context
14:32:20 [abel]
abel has joined #bpwg
14:32:21 [achuter]
Dan: The idea is that if a more advanced device is detected, then exploit its capabilities
14:32:40 [jeffs]
real-world ADC in common practice will slide naturally over time, and document should reflect that reality

PROPOSED RESOLUTION: ISSUE-245 ADC goes back in coffin and close ISSUE-245
14:33:58 [achuter]
Dan: Last time, in April, we didn't take a resolution because (Kai?) was not present.
14:34:30 [achuter]
s/Dan: Last/Jo: Last
14:35:00 [jeffs]
IMHO we are saying "find out at runtime what the client can do"
14:35:07 [achuter]
Jo: Think that an ADC definition would be out of date before the ink dry.
14:35:40 [achuter]
Jo: Better to think in terms of low-tier, medium and high-tier devices
14:36:21 [achuter]
Jo: Idea of ADC is counter-productive to the idea of taking advantage of all capabilities a device has to offer.
