Re: Reference Checker

Yes, I really want to have at least a partial, beta implementation by the
time the final recommendation is published. I think it's crucial to take
advantage of the attention that it will generate in order to publicize the
updated checker.

Dom's set up a mailing list to discuss this:
public-mobileok-checker@w3.org(CCed). Nacho also expressed interest in
getting involved later.

I am happy to drive this process as much as is desirable. I have put
together the basic framework for the tests in a proof-of-concept and am
experimenting with implementing a test or two. Next steps would be to review
this part amongst all interested parties, then implement the tests -- and
that's the point where I think reusing some of what dotMobi has done will be
very useful. Then we refine it as much as we can and put together some
reasonable update to Dom's checker web application based on this code for
the mobileOK Basic Tests 1.0 release.

I won't be at 3GSM and it may be a little hard to make an excuse to get to
our London office soon, but it's possible. I agree that this should be open
to anyone who's interested and I the only other person who spoke up so far
was Nacho.

Dom suggested we can run the project off of dev.w3.org which seems
appropriate.

Before anything's added to CVS, how about I send around the code I have so
far? I realize that's getting a bit ahead of ourselves to look at code but
it codifies what I'd like to do with this reference implementation. We can
arrange a conference call to discuss then?
