W3C published the report of the W3C Workshop on Privacy and
User– Centric Controls workshop held on 20-21 November 2014 in
Berlin. This exploratory workshop attracted extensive
participation, including browser vendors, researchers, network
operators, entrepreneurs, and government representatives.The
group recognized that issues related to implementing and
achieving adoption related to privacy and security may be
similar to those for accessibility and internationalization.
The Workshop identified concrete next steps that will be
brought to the attention of the Privacy Interest Group for
further discussion. The Workshop was hosted by Deutsche Telekom
and sponsored by the European Commission. Learn more about the
Privacy Activity.

Manifest for web application Draft Published

wd=manifest-for-web-application-draft-published
The Web Applications Working Group has published a Working
Draft of "Manifest for web application." This specification
defines a JSON-based manifest that provides developers with a
centralized place to put metadata associated with a web
application. This includes, but is not limited to, the web
application’s name, links to icons, as well as the preferred
URL to open when a user launches the web application. The
manifest also allows developers to declare a default
orientation for their web application, as well as providing the
ability to set the display mode for the application (e.g., in
fullscreen). Additionally, the manifest allows a developer to
“scope” a web application to a URL. This restricts the URLs to
which the application can be navigated and provides a means to
“deep link” into a web application from other applications.

The Web Real-Time Communications Working Group and Device APIs
Working Group have published a Working Draft of "Media Capture
and Streams." This document defines APIs for requesting access
to local multimedia devices, such as microphones or video
cameras. This document also defines the MediaStream API, which

consumed, and provides some control over the devices that
produce the media. It also exposes information about devices
able to capture and render media. Learn more about the
Ubiquitous Web Applications Activity.

with a protocol specification developed by the IETF RTCWEB
group and an API specification to get access to local media
devices developed by the Media Capture Task Force. Learn more
