Re: Draft of Second Screen Presentation Working Group Charter available (was: Heads-Up: Plan for Working Group on Second Screen Presentation)

Hi MarkF, all,

In "API and associated specification", where we say "An API to allow a web
application to request display of web content on a connected display, with
a means to communicate with and control the web content from the initiating
page and other authorized pages", I think we should explicitly add
something like "and a means to discover when a display capable of rendering
the web content is available".

This is the major requirement that is not presently supported by the API
draft: there is no way at present for the web page to determine whether it
should render the icon that shows the user a capable display is available
(and we have decided it should be the page that renders that icon, not the
UA).

...Mark
