I guess await and friends is a ES7 feature? Well promises are here now. The synchronous syntax sugar will come later. I used it to show what the code will look like going forward. Thinking about it some more it should probably be more something like getValue() as we want to return a new promise each time. > Also, this proposal supports N number of sensors of the same type (we can pass arguments to the constructor) -- something that the current API cannot do. I suspect we probably still want a constructor per sensor for ease of detection, but there could be a generic superclass. > Re Chromium/Blink implementation, an intent to implement was sent a while ago and the implementation is mostly done.

Process-wise, we’ve planning to go to CR, so should we move forward with this redesign, we should postpone not to confuse people. Sound good. Thanks for the quick reply! -- http://annevankesteren.nl/
