I'd also like to note that the current design seems to be rejected by the WebKit project: https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2012-March/020027.html ... which implies the spec is not aligned with the DAP Charter: [[ APIs that cannot be demonstrated to be implementable securely within the default browser context will not be released. http://www.w3.org/2011/07/DeviceAPICharter#scope ]] Lastly, we should add a note of discontinuation (similar to shelved documents) at the top of the current Sensor API spec. -Anssi
