> I put a rough draft of this document up at: > > http://dev.w3.org/2009/dap/api-reqs/Overview.html I'm missing one: Connections The Connections API must tell you which kinds of connection(s) are active: wifi, 3G, 2G, etc. It might also be useful to let it fire online/offline events when connections are restored or removed. Or do you think the existing online/offline events are enough for that job? Even if you do, it is very useful to know what kind of connection is active. For instance, the iPhone gives you a warning when you try to download very large (10Mb+) applications via 3G, and advises you to make a wifi connection first. To me this seems to be a practical use case. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- ppk, freelance front-end consultant, agent, and trainer http://www.quirksmode.org/about/ ------------------------------------------------------------------
