Hi, I looked at the Gallery API and noticed that it is still a bit unclear to me from where the requirements are derived from and whether they are meaningful: http://dev.w3.org/2009/dap/gallery/#requirements http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/NOTE-dap-api-reqs-20091015/#gallery In order to move the spec forward, I guess it would help if we could come up with a set of sensible use cases, similarly to: http://dev.w3.org/2009/dap/file-system/file-dir-sys.html#use-cases After we agree on the UCs, we could see if ... - The UCs are fulfilled with what we already have. - It would make sense to extend the file-dir-sys by defining an entry point to a well-known filesystem area for media and extending the metadata interface with media-specific metadata, among others changes. This would be a headless API with no UI integration. http://dev.w3.org/2009/dap/file-system/file-dir-sys.html - If the Gallery design could align with Contacts, as discussed some months ago. Depending on the use cases we come up with, I could see the merits of e.g. reusing the file picker for finding and filtering media objects. So, use cases anyone? -Anssi (I guess this relates to ACTION-216)Received on Tuesday, 12 October 2010 16:05:50 UTC
