A very rough definition could be "A Web app is an application developed using a mix of HTML, JS and CSS, accessible via a user agent, self-contained and mimicking the behaviour of a native application". This has a bit of my own thinking and a bit stolen from Dom's blog [1].

That sounds a lot like what we're already doing, can you specify in which ways it is different?

> Once we have this basic definition we can move on to identify which browser features (not browsers or browser versions), present in current browsers (and again we MUST define a time window because who knows what Opera Mini can do with an update very soon!), allow Web developers to create such Web apps. This would be ring 0.

Once again, no one is excluding Opera Mini. I very much look forward to the day that OM can run great client-side apps of the Top100 kind.

But to be more precise, in what way is the above different from the current (admittedly very drafty) R0 document? We need more change requests and fewer meta discussions please.
