Hi, folks– TimBL (the Director), while generally supportive of moving the Web Events spec forward and resolving the WebIDL dependency expeditiously, wasn't satisfied with the wording we proposed around conforming only to the WebIDL syntax; he wanted for us to make as strong a claim as possible, while not exaggerating the conformance we anticipate. So, PLH and I asked Cameron McCormack, the editor of WebIDL, how he thinks we could most accurately and precisely characterized the Touch Events spec's conformance criterion for WebIDL, and he suggested some text which I've included in the Editor's Draft of the spec [1]. TimBL accepted this text. We believe that this is both accurate and informative, and neither overstates nor understates the requirements for an implementation conforming to WebIDL in the context of Touch Events. Assuming this WG is happy with this text, and if we have no objections from the WebApps WG (ArtB, can you handle that?), the next step would be to move the Web Events spec to Recommendation (possibly as soon as next week). Is this text acceptable to everyone? [1] https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webevents/raw-file/v1/touchevents.html#webidl-conform Regards- -Doug
