W3C Invites Implementations of Pointer Events 2

   11 December 2018
   <https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/7435>

   The Pointer Events Working Group invites implementations of "Pointer Events 2" Candidate Recommendation. The features in this specification extend or modify those found in Pointer Events, a W3C Recommendation that describes events and related interfaces for handling hardware agnostic pointer input from devices including a mouse, pen, touchscreen, etc. For compatibility with existing mouse based content, this specification also describes a mapping to fire Mouse Events for other pointer device types.
