hsablonniere has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/presentation-api: == 1-UA and 2-UA details == Hi everyone ;-) In many places, we can find references to 1-UA and 2-UA ([Chromium Intent to Ship](https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/blink-dev/YKVnS429hns), Firefox bugzilla [#1184036](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1184036) & [#1184073](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1184073), spec Github issues...) but I cannot find a formal definition in the spec. Here's what I understood : * 1-UA is for non Web capable presentation displays, the UA initiating the request is rendering the page himself and mirrors it to another presentation display. * 2-UA is for Web browser capable presentation displays such as the Chromecast, Matchstick... The description in Bugzilla [#1184036](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1184036) regarding 1-UA mentions the Chromecast. It confuses me. I thought it was a 2-UA presentation display. In the Chromium Intent to Ship post, it says that 1-UA is not implemented yet but it will be before the end of the year. I'm confused when they say they will implement 1-UA even if browser vendors are free to do so. I can't find where the spec mentions that. Thanks. See https://github.com/w3c/presentation-api/issues/164
