Hi.

Is there(or there will be) a way I can find out if the device is in silent
mode?

I mean, I could perform a "bip" sound in my webapp when something
happens...but if the user has put his device in "meeting mode", I will just
vibrate it instead...is this(or will it be) possible somehow?

The API is specifically designed to address use cases that require simple tactile feedback only. Use cases requiring more fine-grained control are out of scope for this specification. This API is not meant to be used as a generic notification mechanism. Such use cases may be handled using the Web Notifications [notifications] specification. In addition, determining whether vibration is enabled is out of scope for this specification. ]] http://dev.w3.org/2009/dap/vibration/; (Please make sure the resolution is adapted for public consumption)

The [vibration] LC Working Draft [1] includes a normative reference to HTML 5.0 CR [2].

The normative text of the LC WD refers to HTML5 in the following text:
3. Terminology

The concepts browsing context<http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/browsers.html#browsing-context> and spin the event loop<http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/webappapis.html#spin-the-event-loop> are defined in [HTML5<http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-vibration-20130523/#bib-HTML5>].
The two links in the above text do NOT refer to the HTML 5.0 CR but actually refer to the HTML 5.1 nightly build. I recommend you change the links to refer to the HTML5 CR draft OR change the normative reference to HTML 5.1.
