RE: proposed WG charter


Dear Mr. Tanaka,

Thanks for your information. 

As for my shallow understanding on WebDriver, 
WebDriver is used for automated testing on browser implementations, and it receives commands from remote controller for testing. However, I agree with the possibilities of WebDriver for WDS, as you pointed out. 

It will be good to have a conference call for cooperating on gap analysis, or open a google doc for gap analysis in parallel, if you need help from members.

Anyway, I'm fully supporting your approach.

Thanks again. Have a nice week!

Subject: proposed WG charter

Dear,

I talked with W3M and it was pointed out that the readers might misunderstand our APIs would run outside the Web browser to control the browser.
So, I was advised that our proposed charter should explain more about what gaps new work needs to address, especially the gap with WebDriver.

As we discussed in Seoul meeting, we decided to concentrate on APIs which are qused by Web-based Signage player in order to get the device information and to control the device.

On the other hand, WebDriver provides the remote control interface, so WebDriver can be a part of Web-based Signage player function.
This is my understanding.

I will revise the draft charter including the difference with WebDriver, and will provide you for review.

If you have any opinion on WebDriver and any other related issue with our proposed charter, please let me know.

Best regards,
Kiyoshi
