Ok, I've rewritten it to read:

[[
A widget engine may provide APIs to access system resources and services.

Examples of device-specific services and resources that could be made
available through script include cameras, SMS, and the address book.
However, this requirement is beyond the scope of the Web Application Format
[Working Group Charter]. There are other working groups working on this
requirements such as Ubiquitous Web Applications Working Group [UWAWG], and
the Open Mobile Alliance [OMA].
]]

Does anyone know exactly which OMA working group is working on this
requirement?

Kind regards,
