Re: [w3ctag/spec-reviews] Ambient Light Sensor API (#115)

@slightlyoff:

> Thanks for explaining the sampling rate model. Does all this stuff need to come back to the main thread? Can it be delegated to workers somehow? It feels like interrupting rendering to handle this sort of input is going to jank VERY badly

This is on my todo list though I would have preferred to delay it to a level 2 of the spec to ship this thing first. I'm not sure what the best strategy to handle permissions is within worked and pointers (if you have any) would be appreciated.

> Still not seeing an explainer/examples document in the Github repo (https://github.com/w3c/ambient-light). Should I be looking elsewhere for those?

I guess I was hoping that the Generic Sensor spec itself would provide all the required info. What's missing from it?

Yeah. We dropped that.

> How's the permissions api stuff going? @jyasskin?

I think we have a better story at this point. might get back to you with more specific questions once I'm actually working directly on this.
