RE: Proposed additional topic for joint DAP/WebApps Widgets F2F session

Hi,

So of course that was one example and I'm trying not to get into detail here - my main point is that currently we have no big picture view, I don't think that is good enough. This is why I want to put a specific agenda point forward for the following:

I think a key output of TPAC for those overlapping groups / work items should be an overall architectural view highlighting overlaps and issues and an accompanying plan to deal with those issues. To reiterate, that is: webapps (APIs), webapps (widgets), DAP, HTML5 and the overall security considerations. I think the Chairs should jointly own this and it should be presentable to the outside world at any stage.

Cheers,


David.

That's the major centrepiece of why we have a joint APIs/DAP meeting  
planned :)
