Call for Review: Pointer Events Level 2 is a W3C Proposed Recommendation

   21 February 2019
   <https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/7589>

   The Pointer Events Working Group has published a Proposed Recommendation of "Pointer Events Level 2." 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.
