This would include minimise/maximise functions, window size, alerting mechanisms etc. Hmm... Is that really a "device service" API? It feels more like something for the WebApps Working Group. Is it so strongly related to the others APIs that it would need to be developed in this group? > * Security Policy Framework: > - Definition of a policy description language for security policies > - Expression of security policies that govern access of Web Applications and Widgets to security-critical APIs Added. > 3) In 4.2 Liaisons: > > Ubiquitous Web Applications Working Group http://www.w3.org/2007/uwa/ To help with work on device status, particularly the work on Delivery Context: Client Interfaces (DCCI) 1.0 http://www.w3.org/TR/DPF/.
