Mark Manasse (who is part of the Micropayments Markup Working Group) informs me that: "The current MilliCent wallet [3] is settable to require confirmation of all payments." (I hope to get a URI to online documentation of this feature.) Thus, there's at least one implementation of a payment system that illustrates configuration to confirm payments. I will continue to seek additional implementation experience to bolster the proposed requirement. - Ian [3] http://www.millicent.com/ > [1] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2000OctDec/0430.html > [2] http://server.rehab.uiuc.edu/ua-issues/issues-linear-lc2.html#420 -- Ian Jacobs (jacobs@w3.org) http://www.w3.org/People/Jacobs Tel: +1 831 457-2842 Cell: +1 917 450-8783
