RfC: adding Joystick API to WebEvents' charter; deadline Sept 9

Hi All,

Mozilla [1] and Google [2] have draft specs for a Joystick API and 
members of both organizations have expressed interest in adding this API 
to the Web Events WG. During our August 30 call, we discussed adding 
this spec to our charter [3] and support for doing so was unanimous 
although many WG members were not on the call.

Before the group can formally publish this API, the spec must be added 
to the WG's charter [4]. Given updating a charter is relatively 
heavy-weight, I don't want to pursue that route if members of the group 
have concerns about adding this API to our charter.

By September 9, please indicate whether or not you support adding this 
API to the charter. If you do not support adding this API, please 
elaborate on your concerns.

For those WG members that represent W3C members, you may want to forward 
this email to your AC rep.

-Art Barstow
