Please consider the request to remove device orientation retracted for now. We'll still need to figure out some kind of long term plan for that API though. WebVR building on it through libraries that abstract away the browser incompatibilities will just make it harder to fix the underpinnings going forward. (And there's always the risk that folks don't use libraries and code directly against what Chrome ships. Seems likely even.)

I'm not sure that's a good reason to keep the current APIs around though. Ambient light in particular leaks cross-origin data. It's rather surprising we haven't acted on that thus far. And none of what we ship ended up being standardized as such. If we actually think we need these APIs we should put in the effort to solve the security and standardization issues. -- https://annevankesteren.nl/ _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
