Hi,

Great! It seems we have the critical mass of interested folks at TPAC, so I proposed a Web & Virtual Reality breakout session:

Folks who'll be at TPAC - feel free to embellish the proposal :-)

Thanks,

Is there a plan for a meeting or breakout session at TPAC 2016?

Based on my cross-check, not many WebVR CG participants will be at TPAC 2016, thus I doubt there will be a formal WebVR meeting at TPAC. Please note a W3C workshop on the Web & VR topics will be held roughly a month after TPAC on 19-20 October in San Jose, CA, USA (registration is open until 16 September):

https://www.w3.org/2016/06/vr-workshop/

WebVR spec being worked on in this group will be in scope for that workshop, in addition to other Web & VR topics.

That said, at least Ningxin, you Louay, and I from this group will be at TPAC, so we might be able to pull off e.g. a TPAC breakout session on WebVR topics if there's wider interest. I think it should probably be more of a primer or intro to the subject considering the audience.

Thanks,
