Hi Chaals, Jonathan, Input devices are currently not in the DAP charter. http://www.w3.org/2009/05/DeviceAPICharter.html I am not sure whether the charter is to change soon, although it should be possible, I think. Thanks.

They are, as I understand it, well within the scope of the group. So it would take a draft, an editor, and presumably use cases and interest from implementors, before the group might add them to the deliverables. I am not sure whether the charter is to change soon, although it should be possible, I think. Yes, I think that we agree on the way such work would happen, and that it is certainly possible in the scope of that group. cheers Chaals Thanks.
