15:06:25 [fjh]
anssik: tobie will put out update by this month, also ambient light
15:06:38 [fjh]
… also publish updated WD
15:06:45 [fjh]
… cannot automate it yet
15:06:54 [fjh]
fjh: WD update
15:07:48 [fjh]
fjh: need prepared editors draft including status section update, not a too slow to publish
15:07:52 [fjh]
fjh: would like to send CfC
15:08:22 [fjh]
fjh: good practice, not much delay with 1 week CfC, so lets do a CfC
15:08:38 [fjh]
… tue and thur are publication date
15:09:06 [fjh]
… need draft to see before deciding
15:10:00 [fjh]
… also need to understand what open issues remain - does not block WD
15:10:19 [fjh]
Topic: Battery Status API
15:10:28 [fjh]
fjh: where are we
15:10:48 [fjh]
anssi: identified root cause for test failures, fixed the test cases
15:11:10 [fjh]
… root cause was that test case should not be run too early, ordering of test cases
15:11:26 [fjh]
… update sent yesterday
15:11:41 [anssik]
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-device-apis/2016Feb/0061.html
15:12:38 [fjh]
… one test remaining, Zhiqiang will work on this starting next week
15:13:05 [fjh]
… once that is done we can move to PR
15:13:12 [fjh]
fjh: how did you see the issue
15:13:31 [fjh]
anssik: Zhiqiang had tool to watch variables
15:13:38 [fjh]
fjh: is that tool available to others
15:13:51 [fjh]
anssik: Zhiqiang will include in test suite
15:14:57 [fjh]
fjh: so the timing should work with Dom being back
15:15:05 [fjh]
Topic: Vibration
15:15:16 [fjh]
fjh: lots of privacy discussion, see PING call for next week
15:15:55 [fjh]
fjh: I have a conflict but if you can attend it might be useful
15:16:27 [anssik]
https://github.com/w3c/vibration/pull/1
15:16:59 [fjh]
fjh: expect we can go to REC again without too much trouble, since we are not changing normative requirements that impact implementations
15:17:15 [fjh]
anssik: page visibility does not impact implementations or testing, better language
15:18:15 [fjh]
… note migrated from CVS to git , easier to review
15:18:30 [fjh]
… this is what to review: https://github.com/w3c/vibration/pull/1/files
15:20:03 [fjh]
fjh: I did not see discussion regarding privacy, wasn’t aware
15:20:27 [fjh]
anssik: request to mirror to list but awaiting for Dom until he is back
15:20:52 [fjh]
fjh: thanks for this work
15:21:12 [fjh]
… will review, shall we send message to list asking for review
15:21:40 [fjh]
fjh: I’ll ask for review
15:21:48 [fjh]
s/review/review by the WG/
15:22:14 [fjh]
fjh: need to check what PING is looking at, should be this one
15:23:05 [anssik]
https://rawgit.com/anssiko/vibration/rec-errata/index.html
15:23:32 [fjh]
fjh: excellent, will make sure PING sees this as well as WG

15:24:54 [fjh]
Topic: WakeLock API
15:25:05 [fjh]
Remaining issues; https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-device-apis/2016Jan/0077.html
15:25:29 [fjh]
Andrey_Logvinov: remaining issues are feature requests as opposed to issues
15:25:40 [fjh]
… desires for control of timeouts etc
15:25:56 [fjh]
… ongoing discussion, no consensus on how to deal with them
15:26:48 [fjh]
fjh: we have fast WD publication for this one, so the question is when to go to CR
15:26:56 [fjh]
anssik: behind flag in chromium?
15:26:58 [fjh]
Andrey_Logvinov: yues
15:27:05 [fjh]
s/yues/yes/
15:27:15 [fjh]
anssik: other implementations?
15:27:23 [fjh]
Andrey_Logvinov: not yet
15:28:52 [fjh]
anssik: can we go to CR
15:29:10 [fjh]
fjh: can, since call for implementation, but better to have more implementation experience first, or confidence
15:29:21 [fjh]
fjh: what about Mozilla, Marcos is involved
15:29:30 [fjh]
Andrey_Logvinov: not sure what they are doing
15:30:09 [fjh]
anssik: key use case was Firefox OS, but now be refocused, so no longer under development, so could be lower priority
15:30:16 [fjh]
… use case is for mobile
15:30:30 [fjh]
fjh: need two implementations at least to progress
15:30:58 [fjh]
anssik: what about iOS, apple
15:31:08 [fjh]
… mobile feature, so that leaves Android and iOS
15:31:22 [fjh]
… maybe Firefox for Android, another question for Marcos
15:31:44 [fjh]
Andrey_Logvinov: not just mobile, can be for any platform
15:32:07 [fjh]
anssik: high value is for mobile, delay differences
15:32:56 [fjh]
fjh: who to ask?
15:33:04 [fjh]
… people in second screen group?
15:33:49 [fjh]
anssik: probably not right people
15:34:07 [fjh]
fjh: who in apple would be right person to ask, having reason to be interested
15:34:19 [fjh]
anssik: they tend to follow, not doing early implementations
15:34:57 [fjh]
… start with Marcos and Mozilla
15:36:29 [fjh]
Topic: Charter
15:38:12 [anssik]
proposed charter in review: https://www.w3.org/2015/11/DeviceSensorsCharter.html
15:39:03 [fjh]
anssik: we’ve been extended to end of march
15:40:11 [fjh]
fjh: I think we will be ok, haven’t seen issue, can work with Dom when he is back
