Hi all, Thanks for reaching out again Francois. If it would be helpful, we could add this item to our agenda for the call on 3 December 2015 UTC 17.

I see that there has been an initial review led by Greg [1] which was also used to fine-tune the privacy questionnaire, and then a call for volunteers to finalize the review [2], although I did not find something else in the mailing-list. Could you clarify the current status? >> >> The Second Screen Working Group had its F2F at TPAC and went over the review at [1]. It seems very focused on audio/video, and we wonder whether that is intended. The Presentation API has two modes of operation: >> - the 1UA case where a user agent renders the content at the requested URL locally and indeed streams the resulting audio/video to the second screen >> - the 2UA case where a user agent connects with another user agents to ask it to render the content at the requested URL. No audio/video streaming occurs in that case, but a communication channel gets established between the two user agents. >> >> I think the group's idea is to see the 1UA case along the lines of: the second screen is part of the "computer" where the user agent runs, which controls the audio/video link in the same vein as it controls the usual "link" with the main display over some internal bus or a VGA/HDMI/Miracast connection. Is the potential privacy concern around the fact that the audio/video stream could be intercepted, or that the second screen could perhaps be considered as a separate computer that could record the streams? >> >> Thanks, >> Francois, >> W3C Staff Contact, >> Second Screen Working Group >> >> [1] https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-privacy/2015JulSep/0120.html >> [2] https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-privacy/2015JulSep/0138.html >> >> >> > > > > -- > Joseph Lorenzo Hall > Chief Technologist > Center for Democracy & Technology > 1634 I ST NW STE 1100 > Washington DC 20006-4011 > (p) 202-407-8825 > (f) 202-637-0968 > joe@cdt.org > PGP: https://josephhall.org/gpg-key > fingerprint: 3CA2 8D7B 9F6D DBD3 4B10 1607 5F86 6987 40A9 A871 >
