[wg/das] Device and Sensors WG 2023 Rechartering #429

Closed himorin closed 3 months ago

himorin commented 9 months ago

New charter proposal, reviewers please take note.

Charter Review

Proposed Draft Charter: https://w3c.github.io/charter-drafts/2023/das-wg-charter.html

What kind of charter is this? Check the relevant box / remove irrelevant branches.

diff from previous charter, and any issue discussion:

Horizontal Reviews: apply the Github label "Horizontal review requested" to request reviews for accessibility (a11y), internationalization (i18n), privacy, and security. Also add a "card" for this issue to the Strategy Funnel.

Communities suggested for outreach: @himorin

Known or potential areas of concern: None

Where would charter proponents like to see issues raised? this strategy funnel issue

Anything else we should think about as we review?

no needs-resolution from i18n, but we would recommend to update sections from 3. Success Criteria to 9. Licensing to align with the latest charter template, especially to remove horizontal review on performance.

"monitoring" may be the wrong framing for privacy-preserving APIs on the Web: the goal of the platform should not be to monitor users' devices, but to allow users who want to to access certain capabilities.

Maybe: "providing" location information, and not necessarily location information of the hosting device. "accessing nearby devices without physical contact" "responding to ambient light levels" "reacting to changes in motion or orientation"

Defining these specifically as properties of the hosting device or as ongoing monitoring will overconstrain the designed solution in ways that don't align well with privacy.

If the plan is to coordinate with the Web Apps Working Group on the location deliverables (and other deliverables), then the charter should say so directly.

If the plan is to coordinate with the Web Apps Working Group on the location deliverables (and other deliverables), then the charter should say so directly.

Does it not? Are you thinking of some language more explicit than, "This work is a joint deliverable with the Web Applications Working Group"?

npdoty commented 8 months ago

The Coordination section indicates that the Web Apps group works on File and Web Manifest and that will be a point of coordination. So maybe you could just add to that section that the plan is also to coordinate with Web Apps on geolocation (either just Geolocation API, or maybe geolocation and motion more generally).

npdoty commented 8 months ago

Also, the charter table of contents uses inconsistent labeling on dependencies vs coordination.

APA has no accessibility concerns with the proposed Charter, but wish to ask whether there might be scope to update the Vibration API to support high-fidelity haptics. We inquire because we were presented Use Cases Requiring High-Fidelity Haptics during TPAC 2023.

I found it odd that System Wake Lock API is listed twice, with different adopted drafts. That might merit an explanatory note.

svgeesus commented 8 months ago

I agree with @npdoty that 'monitor' sounds more like tracking and less like a desirable thing for the user. Suggest presenting a user-centered use case, such as "ambient light sensor enables automatic adjustment of HDR videos and images to maintain viewability in different environments"

siusin commented 8 months ago

In 4.1, perhaps we should mention the DAS WG will collaborate with the Web Applications Working Group on a few joint deliverables, including the Contact Picker API, the Screen Wake Lock API, the DeviceOrientation Event Specification and the Geolocation API.

draft copied to https://github.com/w3c/charter-drafts/blob/gh-pages/2023/das-wg-charter.html, all PR at das-charter repo merged. (and links in the description updated)

I believe these are "Screen Wake Lock API" and "System Wake Lock API"...
