Re: IndieUI Teleconference Agenda; 14 November 2012 at 18:00Z for 60 minutes

Digressing a little - can we table discussion of preferences and the 
User Context part at some point please.

I've looked at the current User Context draft and its a good start. As I 
read it right now its focussed around (potential) accessibility features 
of the device in question and whether it has them. This is obviously 
very important and required but may not be sufficient. One thing it may 
be useful to do is have preferences that are not responded to by the 
device but are passed up and on to the web app by the same mechanism as 
those that are. In fact we would imho in general want
to give the device the choice to respond or not (which seems pretty
suited to the events model - if not acted on by some level the 
preference gets passed on).  It may well be that even within one
vendor some devices may respond to a preference whilst others do
not respond to the same preference - it seems sensible then to me
to permit such to be settings of a device even if the device cannot 
respond to them - for example if the user requires enhanced contrast 
that might be handled directly by some devices that vendor produces and 
for others it might be passed to the web app to deliver alternative 
content.  What preferences a device can respond to directly (which may 
be faster than the web app responding) may be a selling point.
Similar arguments apply for example to a "I want a simple interface" 
preference and many others.  My view is we should focus mainly on those
preferences that devices *can* respond to directly but I don't think
we have a choice but to include other preferences unless we know we
have all the device manufacturers in the room.  Its a shame we didn't 
get to discuss this in Lyon.

Are editors drafts publicly visible ?  If so it would be useful I think
if we could address this soon so people know what the extent of the 
context is.  I'm not assuming there is agreement on this, just making 
the argument to look at it.
