Re: Welcome to the Device and Sensors Working Group

Hi Anssi, all,

> On behalf of the group, welcome to the Device and Sensors Working Group!

Thanks for the warm welcome :-)

> Related to your interests, we're expecting to add two new specifications
to this group when we recharter during 2Q 2018: Geolocation Sensor [4]
(graduating from WICG incubation) and Device Orientation Event [5] (adopted
from the now closed Geolocation WG). I've already acknowledged your
contributions to the former and look forward to your continued future
contributions. Meanwhile, you can continue contribute to Geolocation Sensor
spec as a WICG participant as usual.

Perfect, looking forward to the exciting new use cases these specs will
enable.

> Recently, the group reached a major milestone when six of its Sensor APIs
were published as Candidate Recommendations [6] signaling feature
completeness (for "Level 1") and implementation readiness.

That's great, congrats on reaching this important step!

> Please reach out to me or the group's W3C Team contacts Fuqiao and Dom
(cc'd) for any questions. We're happy to help.

Sounds good, will keep this in mind.

> Also, feel free to briefly introduce yourself and your interests toward
the group.

I'm Tom, I work with some of Google's biggest partners on improving their
Mobile Web presence. I'm very excited about Service Workers (joined the WG
recently), and all the new programming paradigms they unlock already now,
and—with new exciting specs in development in this WG—hopefully likewise in
the future. I'm @tomayac on Twitter, GitHub, and elsewhere online.

Cheers,
Tom
