 Dear Chaals McCathieNevile ,

The Device APIs Working Group has reviewed the comments you sent [1] on the
Last Call Working Draft [2] of the HTML Media Capture published on 12 Jul

send us comments!

The Working Group's response to your comment is included below.

Please review it carefully and let us know by email at
public-device-apis@w3.org if you agree with it or not before 18 September

solution for or a path to a consensus with the Working Group. If such a
consensus cannot be achieved, you will be given the opportunity to raise a
formal objection which will then be reviewed by the Director during the

Working Group Resolution (LC-2640):
The specification extends the input element's File Upload state, which is
defined in HTML5. In order to be consistent with the HTML5 spec, this spec
also specifies the extensions in terms of the DOM. Here's the relevant
HTML5 reference:

[[

Since DOM trees are used as the way to represent HTML documents when they
are processed and presented by implementations (especially interactive
implementations like Web browsers), this specification is mostly phrased in
terms of DOM trees, instead of the markup described above.

Use of the input element is shown in the examples in Appendix A.
