Hello WG,

During our first DOM 3 Events telcon I was given an action to summarize any 
outstanding dblclick and to bring them up to the group for closure.

>From the tracker issues database there are two unopened issues regarding 
>dblclick:

ISSUE-81: What should detail be for dblclick events?
http://www.w3.org/2005/06/tracker/webapi/issues/81

and

ISSUE-82: should Anne's proposed even click count rule for dblclick be a 
normative requirement?
http://www.w3.org/2005/06/tracker/webapi/issues/82


Regarding ISSUE-81 - the e-mail threads ended with two options - either making 
dblclick.detail == click.detail or making it a constant. The current WD has 
both dblclick.detail and click.detail equal to the "current click count" [1]. 
This seems consistent with the e-mail thread regarding the issue. Please 
provide feedback before our next telcon on February 20th, as this will be 
discussed and resolved at that time.


Regarding ISSUE-82, the e-mail discussion that followed discussed a number of 
solutions:

1. adding "current click count % 2 == 0 " as a normative requirement
2. adding "current click count == 2" as a normative requirement
3. adding text stating that current click count is the number of consecutive 
clicks,  the notion of which depends on the environment configuration

The current draft of the spec has the wording from option 3[1]. Again, this 
seems consistent with the e-mail thread regarding the issue. Please provide 
feedback before our next telcon on February 20th, as this will be discussed and 
resolved at that time.

All the best,
Andrew
