(May have remote participants e.g. Greg, Paul) fjh: i think there's also a web intents session on wednesday during the plenary ... i know jhawkins won't be there in person ... the most important thing going forward ... is browser support ... especially mozilla support ... i think the right thing to do is to work on a proposal for the agenda ... i'll do that with jhawkins and greg ... does anyone else have comments on the agenda? dcheng3: i have a concern about one of the items on the agenda ... network information api action points ... i thought in the last F2F we informally killed this spec ... i don't know if it's reasonable to fjh: i thought we shelved the previous version ... but that we had a simplified version we were progressing ... i'll change the agenda item to be a general topic ... and figure out what we're doing dcheng3: my understanding was that we shelved both versions ... there were finger printing issues with the first one ... and the second one had implementability issues ... and wasn't going to be useful ... i think Josh_Soref had comments on the mailing list Josh_Soref: +1 [Josh_Soref's request][27] to shelve the second version nwidell: one thing i think we should discuss ... previously discussed a bit ... the sensor apis ... for sensors not on the device ... i know mozilla doesn't really like this ... maybe there are other supporters in the group ... so maybe we should raise the question ... and see if there are other supporters fjh: are you talking about temperature and web intents? nwidell: eactly fjh: how do we go forward with this? nwidell: maybe we put together a presentation for that fjh: are you volunteering to do a presentation? fjh: note to self, add next step for sensor API agenda item nwidell: yeah, i can do a short one fjh: that'd be great ... another topic is where do we focus our future efforts ... does anyone else have comments? ### Calendar fjh: the question is whether we should try to progress it ... my understanding is if it were to mimic contacts ... one would be WebIntents intergration ... the other would be the data format ... my understanding is we finished the data format ... but i think Josh_Soref disagreed on that Josh_Soref: at the last time we looked we noticed bugs in the calendar data format, didn't handle leap years ... could live with that bug but given that it took so long to get the comment, not sure about the amount of review ... need explanation of reason for difference for ical etc, can take action to look at our implementation dcheng3: one idea would be to invite tantek çelik, who's working on the calendar implementation for firefox os ... so we can see where they want to go **ACTION:** fjh to update F2F agenda for sensor next steps, network information, and to make invitations for mozilla participation [recorded in [http://www.w3.org/2012/10/17-dap-minutes.html#action01][28]] Created ACTION-584 - Update F2F agenda for sensor next steps, network information, and to make invitations for mozilla participation [on Frederick Hirsch - due 2012-10-24].
