Web MIDI API

Hi All, 
The Web Audio WG recently published the Web MIDI API: 
https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/audio/raw-file/tip/midi/specification.html

Apart from being able to hook up millions of different bits of musical and lighting equipment, it's fairly trivial to get an Arduino to talk MIDI. This allows for some interesting applications (e.g., playing music based on different sensor events, etc.).  

Anyway, if you want to try it out (and make sounds) there is a prollyfill available at:
http://marcoscaceres.github.com/WebMIDIAPIShim/ 

(needs a plugin, as it's currently not natively supported in browsers)
