> > http://escholarship.org/uc/item/0rp834wf > I am familiar with the paper. I'd still urge you to go read the f2f comments. Much of this UC paper is the same arguments that the GeoPriv/CDT people made. > I understand there are pragmatic concerns - yet can we do more to find a good balance? supporting rulesets may be a possibility - we'll have to talk about it at the workshop From a personal pov, there isn't any balance to be found at the API level. I do not want to build or design an API that embeds policy information in it. From a developers pov, i have never seen such an API nor would want to use one. Sorry that I will not be at the workshop (and somewhat happy since this specific topic was talked to death at the Geolocation WG two Decembers ago). I do urge this WG to consider the statements made in the other WG. I worry that whatever is spec'ed out here will not be implemented by the majority of user agents (browsers). I hope this helps, Doug Turner
