So am I right in thinking that we, if we don't standardize digital signature schemes and packaging, will have something that is a bit similar to the Phonegap/Cordova concept? That is, developers will be able to use a set of standardized APIs and write apps with html, css, js and a manifest that are basically portable between different runtimes platforms that complies to the SysApps specifications. However, each device runtime supporting SysApps must have an associated tool chain that signs and packs the application according to the specifics of this runtime.
