tobie has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/sensors: == Simplify extension of the Permissions API for concrete sensor implementations == Accessing sensor data has multiple privacy implications and is therefore subject to permissioning. The [Permission API](https://w3c.github.io/permissions/) allows developers to check whether the permission to access a given API was already granted (or denied) by the user on a per origin basis. Currently, exposing that status through the Permissions API requires a modification of the Permission API spec itself. Ideally, we'd want sped editors authoring concrete sensor specs to be able to extend the Permission API within the same document. This needs concertation with the editors of the Permissions API. **Actions:** - [x] Liaise with @mounirlamouri and @marcoscaceres - [ ] Investigate relationship to [Permissions API](https://w3c.github.io/permissions/). - [ ] Try to find a solution that doesn't imply a [Permissions API](https://w3c.github.io/permissions/) update for every concrete Sensor spec. See https://github.com/w3c/sensors/issues/22
