RE: ACTION-593 Write a summary of preliminary work to be done for this working group to focus on Best Practices for Web applications

Hi Bryan,

For clarification,  
"determine which type of device we are writing the BP 2.0 document for
(what are our expections in its capabilities?)"
was in reference to the ADC.

Also, as a side note, there is a lingering question as to what /*is*/ a
mobile device.
While most would agree that a laptop is not and a PDA is, I think we
left off at saying that the device should say what it is, which in turn
might be influenced by user choice.
