Hi, We've had a few discussions on this list about the issues people have had with the design of touch events (and sometimes even specific implementation details that are out of scope for the spec). How do subscribers feel about encouraging that sort of discussion here? In particular Boris and I are doing a talk at Google I/O about touch input and some of the challenges with it and I want to point people at a public forum for further discussion. I'd personally find it easier to make better decisions around future directions if we had a more active dialog between UA vendors and site/library developers here. But if people are concerned the volume/noise would get too high, I'm happy to create a separate mailing list for this sort of discussion. While I'm here, let me plug a few resources that discuss some of the issues I'd like to see more dialog around: HTML5Rocks article on touch+mouse: http://www.html5rocks.com/en/mobile/touchandmouse/ G+ post with more details on the touch+mouse problem: https://plus.google.com/115788095648461403871/posts/6RqRCEVbqpC G+ post with more details on how even empty touch event handlers can be a major perf problem: https://plus.sandbox.google.com/115788095648461403871/posts/cmzrtyBYPQc Thanks, Rick
