WebApps received a Request for Comments re DAPWG's August 28 Last Call
WD of Battery Status API (last published as a [CR], see [Diff]):
<http://www.w3.org/TR/2014/WD-battery-status-20140828/>
Individual WG members are encouraged to provide individual feedback.
If anyone in WebApps wants to propose an official group response, please
do so ASAP, in reply to this e-mail so the group can discuss it.
Comments should be sent to public-device-apis @ w3.org by October 2.
Presumably, DAPWG also welcomes data about "silent reviews", f.ex. "I
reviewed section N.N and have no comments".
-Thanks, AB

This is a return from CR to make normative changes to address feedback raised
by implementers (much appreciated). The changes include the following:
[[
• Expose BatteryManager via getBattery() returning a Promise instead of
a synchronous accessor. (Section 5)
• Clarify default values when a BatteryManager object is created and
the implementation is unable to report the battery status information. (Section
6)
• Specify the behavior when a host device has more than one battery.
(Section 6.1)
