Status

Questions

  • What is current status?
  • Are there any Bus.Reqs driving this in v1? Seems like something we leave for later implementation (ala: iOS 1.0)
  • Temporary interface has been implemented by David Flanagan as part of WindowManager, correct? With press-and-hold Home button to activate?
  • Are there B2G dependencies? If so, what?
  • Do we allow certain apps to have special permissions? For example: most apps "freeze" when not in foreground, but Audio apps can continue to playback?
