Dom introduced the Webinos project to the WG,  an EU research project and also to have related open source, http://webinos.org/about-webinos

The group noted the relationship of the RTC Web work, both in IETF and W3C, specifically http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jennings-rtcweb-api-00

Somehow the <device> element is no longer in HTML5 draft. What happened?

The WG reviewed open issues and closed a large number, including those associated with a policy framework.

Dom reviewed the WG testing approach with the WG,  will test enable Contacts as a first step once it is published as Last Call.
