For this spec, I think we should just make it clear what exactly is meant by the capabilities object that are transferred by the wire protocol, e.g. how required and desired are used, and that capabilities returned by newSession describe the actual, unchangeable capabilities of that session. 102144 1 fisherii 2014-03-10 17:49:22 +0000 *** Bug 24975 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 105509 2 dburns 2014-05-08 23:13:10 +0000 We have said on numerous occasions that the spec only describes the remote end. I have emailed the mailing list to get others to chime in. I agree we should remove it. 105513 3 vlotoshnikov 2014-05-08 23:33:21 +0000 +1 105635 4 ato 2014-05-11 12:44:23 +0000 Seconded. It's especially confusing because it mentions raising WebDriverException, which really a driver implementation has no control over. 105696 5 dburns 2014-05-12 09:14:49 +0000 Landed in https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webdriver/rev/2fdf64ba5df5 105766 6 vlotoshnikov 2014-05-12 21:52:18 +0000 'MutableCapabilities' is still mentioned two times (one of them also being a reference to a now non-existing section) now without being defined at all. Should get rid of any mentions of MutableCapabilities. 106094 7 dburns 2014-05-15 20:56:41 +0000 Landed in https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webdriver/rev/cae6a9db15d5
