Re: Your comments on Device Description Repository Simple API ( LC-1967)

 Dear José Manuel Cantera ,

The Mobile Web Initiative Device Description Working Group has reviewed
the comments you sent [1] on the Last Call Working Draft [2] of the Device
Description Repository Simple API published on 4 Apr 2008. Thank you for
having taken the time to review the document and to send us comments!

The Working Group's response to your comment is included below, and has
been implemented in the new version of the document available at:
http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/DDWG/drafts/api/080514.

Please review it carefully and let us know by email at
public-ddwg-comments@w3.org if you agree with it or not before 24 May
2008. In case of disagreement, you are requested to provide a specific
solution for or a path to a consensus with the Working Group. If such a
consensus cannot be achieved, you will be given the opportunity to raise a
formal objection which will then be reviewed by the Director during the

Working Group Resolution (LC-1967):
The DDWG has resolved to keep the text in section 1.2, with a minor change
to replace "DDRs" with "implementations of the DDR Simple API", and in
section 3 to add the following text: "As mentioned in section 1.2, the
DDWG strongly recommends that its Core Vocabulary is supported by all
implementations of the DDR Simple API."
