Hi,
I've just released the latest version of the quarterly overview of W3C
technologies that increase the capabilities of Web apps with special
relevance on mobile:
http://www.w3.org/2014/10/mobile-web-app-state/
As always, it highlights the changes in the platform over the past 3
months (see below); a new addition in this edition is a section on
payment, tracking the work recently started through the W3C workshop in
March.
Enjoy,
Dom
