RE: CfC to publish a new WD of "Media Capture and Streams"

I support it too, with one request: can we get rid of "photo-camera" from the SourceTypeEnum (see http://dev.w3.org/2011/webrtc/editor/getusermedia.html#track-source-types)?

In the context of ImageCapture, I would prefer not to have any type checking on the VideoStreamTrack used in the constructor.  For instance, if takePhoto() is invoked then a type check would be necessary with the current definition of track sources.  If we eliminate this source type, then even if the video capture device is not photo capable then takePhoto() can result in an error event.

Hi TF,

it has been a long time since we did make a new public version (the
latest one has date June 28th 2012 [1]).

New public WDs is supposed to happen much more often, so we propose to
publish the current Editor's draft [2]. Note that making it public does
in no way imply that it is final, it is only a way to make people
outside the TF aware of that we're are making progress and to get
feedback from a wider audience.

If you have any comments or concerns about this proposal, please reply
to this e-mail by May 6 at the latest. Positive response to this CfC is
preferred and encouraged and silence will be assumed to mean agreement
with the proposal. We intend to formally decide on the Media Capture
teleconf on May 7th.

Stefan for the chairs
