equalsJeffH has just merged emlun's pull request 998 for https://github.com/w3c/webauthn:
== Precisize "platform" and "device" terminology ==
This mitigates #358 and #462.
- Add "client platform" definition
- Rewrite/remove most unqualified uses of "platform"; main exception is "platform-provided" in the context of the Android attestation statement formats
- Rewrite/qualify most uses of "device"
This should eliminate from #358:
- Platform
- a platform
- underlying platform
- underlying OS platform
- [this|the] client platform
- client's platform
- [this|the] platform
- user agent and/or platform
and from #462:
- CLIENT:
- client
- client device
- client platform
- (not "client-side", but #997 takes care of most of what remains of that)
- Device
- computing device
- user's computing device
- see also 'client device'
- PLATFORM:
- All sub-items except:
- Android "N" or later platform
- Android platforms
