NavidZ: we added the coalesced and pointerraw to the main spec; we have 
a PR for the predicted events to be added to the spec, which just needs 
a few minor edits

NavidZ: if Olli could take a look at the PR, then we can merge it
... once that is merged we can remove the extension document

after that, we can do the web platform tests as well

Olli: I've added myself as reviewer

NavidZ: after removing these are we good to proceed?

Patrick: yes i think once we merged this, we can leave the open issues 
in github as they're mostly refinements, and go for FPWD which i know 
philippe is keen on

NavidZ: do we need 3 implementations?

Olli: FPWD doesn't need implementations

Patrick: correct

NavidZ: what's the status on predicted and coalesced in other platforms?

Olli: we have something working for coalesced, nothing yet for predicted

what's Chrome doing for predicted?

NavidZ: Chrome currently not doing anything specific for predicted (?)

we're experimenting with predictors, doing the same for scrolling too

later we can take advantage of prediction available on platform but 
we're not there yet

we're almost there in terms of merging. want to set timeline

get document ready for next meeting in two weeks time. Navid will be at 
BlinkOn but we can have everything ready.

Patrick: will try to get other parts done, such as going over privacy 
implications of new APIs that expose potentially more info about user. 
then will get in touch with PLH to see what the formal steps for FPWD are.

Olli: ping me on IRC if I'm blocking on any issues

Patrick: there are also some outstanding things on my to-do list - 
particularly having a think about converting tiltX/tiltY to also provide 
the Apple-style orientation values ... at least as an initial note. PEP 
includes this, to my knowledge, so will see if i can grab something from 
there.

Summary of Action Items
[NEW] ACTION: contact PLH to check what the steps for FPWD are explicitly
[NEW] ACTION: get outstanding extension sections added to the core spec 
by next call 13 November, in preparation for FPWD
