Re: Initial message

The draft charter  looks like an excellent start for a Web of Things IG. A
couple of comments.

1.       I'd like to suggest adding the Multimodal Interaction Working Group
[1] to the list of groups to be coordinated with. We've  been developing
standards that support approaches to natural interaction (voice,
handwriting, gesture.) with all kinds of current and future components --
applications as well as things. 

2.       Along the same lines, in the list of potential tasks for the
Interest Group, I think we'll want to add a task to look at the kinds of UI
requirements generated by interaction with things. I think this is important
because things that interact with the world are potentially capable of all
kinds of novel and complex behaviors that users will need to control. This
is likely to in turn to lead to new requirements for user interfaces. 

 

Best regards,

Debbie Dahl
