As agreed at a previous meeting, I have gone through the desirable goals
proposed by Jonathan with an eye to updating the document where appropriate
and commenting where I feel the intent of the desirable goals is captured
elsewhere.

It's worth noting that the document has evolved somewhat since these goals
were first written (apologies for the slow response Jonathan) and I feel
many of the points have already seeped into the document in the form of
broader feedback.

Thanks,

Adam.

This is now "Use Cookies Sparingly"
[user experience] --> already covered: "excessive amounts can negatively
impact performance"
[better security] --> I don't think this is a goal of this particular BP.

Often these two goals are very closely connected and will appear together.
In my mind this para. captures the intent here:

"...is a powerful technique that brings Web applications into parity with
native applications in terms of start-up and responsiveness".

I don't think much would be gained by explicitly saying we're talking about
user-experience / performance since this is an implicit goal that cuts
across the whole document. As captured in 1.3.1

"...to enable a better user experience..."


> 3.1.3 Replicate Local State Changes to a Server When Possible<http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/Drafts/BestPractices-2.0/ED-mobile-bp2-20091303#bp-data-server> �.

Again, I think these two goals are one of the fundamental goals of the
document and captured in 1.3.1 so don't need to be called out.


> 3.2.1 Do not Execute Untrusted JavaScript<http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/Drafts/BestPractices-2.0/ED-mobile-bp2-20091303#d1e542> �.
> 3.2.1.3 Desirable Goal of this statement
>
> [Better security]

This BP is in the section: "Security and Privacy" so I think this goal is
captured.

> 3.3.1 Inform the User About Automatic Network Access<http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/Drafts/BestPractices-2.0/ED-mobile-bp2-20090101#bp-inform-automation> �.

Applies to all, captured in 1.3.1


> 3.3.2 Provide Sufficient Means to Control Automatic Network Access<http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/Drafts/BestPractices-2.0/ED-mobile-bp2-20090101#d1e631> �.

See 3.3.1.1 "Network traffic on a mobile device incurs a cost (both in terms
of data-charges and battery-life)..."


> 3.3.3 Ensure the User is Informed About Use of Personal and Device
> Information<http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/Drafts/BestPractices-2.0/ED-mobile-bp2-20090101#bp-inform-personalinfo> �.

This BP is in the section "Conservative Use of Resources" so this is already
covered.
