[generic sensor] FPWD & TPAC meetings

Hi all,

Quick update to let you know that we have released a FPWD of the Generic
Sensor API earlier this week[1]. Note the editor's draft[2] and GitHub
Issues[3] are still where most of the action is going on, so you
definitely should keep an eye on those if you want to follow the spec
closely.

The goal of the Generic Sensor API is to promote consistency across
sensor APIs and increase the pace at which they can be exposed to the
Web by simplifying both the specification and implementation processes.
I'm convinced the Generic Sensor API would be a great fit for exposing
automotive sensors to the Web (see the checking the tire pressure
example I've added to the spec[4]) and would love to collect your
feedback on this topic.

As previously announced, we'll be holding a breakout session[5] and
ad-hoc meeting[6] at TPAC. You're welcome to join both.

I'll be arriving early (on Friday the 23rd) and would be most happy to
meet and chat with some of you then.

All the best,

--tobie
