Proposal to Republish Pointer Events 1 as a Superseded Recommendation (Wide Review until 2018-12-04)

Hello,

W3C Advisory Committee Representatives received a proposal to republish 
the following W3C Recommendation as a Superseded Recommendation, as the 
group is about to release a Recommendation for a new version this month:

    Pointer Events, Level 1
    02 February 2015
    https://www.w3.org/TR/2015/REC-pointerevents-20150224/

The following text is proposed to be added to the Status of This Document:

[[
This specification has been superseded by Pointer Events Level 2. For 
purposes of the W3C Patent Policy this Superseded Recommendation has the 
same status as an active Recommendation; it retains licensing 
commitments and remains available as a reference for old 
implementations. Pointer Events Level 2 is recommended for new adoption.
]]

As part of ensuring that the community is aware of this proposal, W3C 
invites public comments on the public-review-announce@w3.org mailing 
list [1] through 23:59, Boston time on 2018-12-04.

If you work for a W3C Member 
<https://www.w3.org/Consortium/Member/List>, please coordinate your 
comments with your Advisory Committee Representative. For example, you 
may wish to make public comments and have your Advisory Committee 
Representative refer to it from his or her formal review comments.

This Call for review follows section 6.9 "Declaring a W3C Recommendation 
Rescinded, Obsolete or Superseded" of the W3C Process Document:
      https://www.w3.org/2018/Process-20180201/#rec-rescind

and section 6.2.3.1 "Wide Review" of the W3C Process Document:
      https://www.w3.org/2018/Process-20180201/#wide-review

Thank you,

For Tim Berners-Lee, W3C Director, and
Philippe Le Hegaret, Project Management Lead,
Xueyuan Jia, W3C Marketing & Communications
