A few of us on the Chrome and IE input teams just decided to get together
in Seattle on Monday June 23rd to chat informally about opportunities for
collaborating on improving the state of input on the web (touch, scrolling,
virtual keyboards, etc.). We'd love to open this up to any other
browser/framework implementers with expertise in input.
This is not focused on any particular proposals or existing APIs / working
groups (and so is by no means an official W3C face-to-face meeting), but we
expect that it will lead to future proposals within the W3C system once we
better understand our shared priorities. Please see this document

for an initial rough list of potential topics.
Let Jacob or I know if you're interested in joining us at Microsoft
headquarters in Redmond, and if so what your area of expertise is. Space
is limited so please reach out to us this week if you're interested. Sorry
for the short notice, but I hope there will be many more such opportunities
for improved collaboration in the future!
