Hello all A quick introduction, since this is my first post to the list, and a query arising from the minutes of the recent Dublin F2F. My name is Peter Ferne I have been working with mobile web technologies on and off since 1997 and locative web technologies for the last three years, again on and off. I am currently starting a project with HP Labs in Bristol researching possible architectures and prototyping approaches for a locative web app running in a mobile web browser. As such the work of the UWA-WG is obviously of keen interest, and I hope to be able to take an active role in the work of the group. Reading through the UWA F2F minutes I see the following: > DCCI (Keith Waters) > > ... > [shows location hierarchy slide] which I assume is this one: Have Firefox implementation of this example. Now I can see from the Implementation Report (http://www.w3.org/2001/ di/dci/ir/) that there are at least two implementations of DCCI under development: > A France Telecom group plug-in for Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.3 browser. > A France Telecom group implementation for Mozilla Minimo browser > for Windows Mobile. > It is expected there to be other implementations in the near future. I assume the one Keith is referring to here is the Firefox plugin rather than the Minimo one. My question is — would it be possible for me to get access to this plugin? I would of course be happy to respect any confidentiality requirements, although I would hope that fundamental work of this kind would eventually be available under a suitable open source licence. Since my primary goal is to build an example application running in a browser which exposes location information through the DCCI I am anxious to avoid duplicating effort unnecessarily.
