15:17:07 [fjh]
fjh: Zhiqiang added some IDL harness tests and initial value checking tests for Ambient Light Events [1] and Proximity Events [2]
15:17:12 [fjh]
fjh: what comes next?
15:17:21 [fjh]
fjh: see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-device-apis/2013Nov/0014.html
15:17:40 [fjh]
anssik: this should now be fully aligned with specification but have not been able to review
15:17:51 [fjh]
… upon review can merge them
15:18:20 [fjh]
fjh: does this mean you have an implementation as well
15:18:37 [fjh]
anssik: cannot say right now about our plans
15:19:17 [fjh]
… not sure webkit implementation is shipping, Samsung people might know latest
15:19:18 [anssik]
http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/wiki/ImplementationStatus#Proximity_Events
15:19:48 [fjh]
fjh: I would like to get implementers looking at the test cases and see if we can get interop started
15:20:12 [fjh]
anssik: should probably check with Kihong Kwon
15:20:15 [Cathy]
Cathy has joined #dap
15:20:51 [fjh]
fjh: we need at least two real implementations to exit CR
15:21:10 [fjh]
anssik: vibration is turned on Chrome but not the others as far as I know
15:21:27 [fjh]
fjh: does it match latest, 2nd CR of Vibration
15:21:40 [fjh]
anssik: yes, it matches the latest (afaik)
15:21:53 [fjh]
… Gecko may need revision
15:22:21 [fjh]
… Justin Lebar has moved roles, so need to know who is working on this now

15:27:23 [fjh]
gmandyam: possible concern that device orientation may be changed to use promise based approach, yet some DAP specifications have not advanced.
15:28:19 [fjh]
fjh: Media capture TF has elected not to use promises
15:28:32 [fjh]
gmandyam: sys apps and web crypto have incorporated promises
15:28:35 [fjh]
fjh: right
15:29:00 [fjh]
gmandyam: issue is when promises will be stable and finalized
15:29:01 [anssik]
btw. IE11 added support for Device Orientation Events http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/dn433240(v=vs.85).aspx
15:29:37 [fjh]
gmandyam: other issue is functionality of device orientation, do we need consistency?
15:30:19 [fjh]
… android also supports device orientation events
15:31:17 [fjh]
… this microsoft approach is argument against a change from the event method we use in DAP, already deployed
15:31:55 [fjh]
Topic: Vibration
15:32:03 [fjh]
ISSUE-156?
15:32:03 [trackbot]
ISSUE-156 -- add the [Clamp] attribute to the argument of the vibrate method -- open
15:32:03 [trackbot]
http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/issues/156
15:32:23 [fjh]
decided to defer on list since the underlying specification is not stable
15:32:32 [gmandyam]
To summarize: Changing DeviceOrientation from an EventTarget approach would likely by too large a change to be supported by implementations, given e.g. IE support for the spec as it stands.
