I have a couple changes to the spec to: 1) Adjust to recent changes to the Permission spec: https://github.com/WebBluetoothCG/web-bluetooth/pull/249. I think the most interesting part of this change is that it leaves device ID generation much more up to the browser: https://rawgit.com/jyasskin/web-bluetooth-1/update-permissions/index.html#note-device-id-tracking. The thought was that the choice of when to forget devices is much more a UI decision than something the spec should nail down. I expect browsers to do something sensible with this freedom, but if folks want to refine things, definitely speak up. 2) Integrate better with the Physical Web flow: https://github.com/WebBluetoothCG/web-bluetooth/pull/230 (which also includes #249; just look at the third commit). This exposes a navigator.bluetooth.referringDevice field, which will hold a BluetoothDevice when the page was opened from a beacon's advertised URL. Please chime in if you think aspects of those changes could be done better. :) Thanks, Jeffrey
