@glennjones Called it how I saw it back then. Was still surprised when it didn't just ship, warts and all, though. @Paul_Kinlan

@richtibbett I was also surprised did not ship. I still think some of use cases are valid, reading @Paul_Kinlan postmortem call was right

@richtibbett @Paul_Kinlan browser API designs is very hard to get right, look at AppCache

@glennjones @richtibbett oh yeah, I was surprised too, but we had also burnt a lot of cycles on it and didn't get amazingly far

@glennjones @richtibbett also, I dont think the Android intent ecosystem is as used as people think it is. Most inter apps is just SEND

@glennjones @richtibbett the rest is functionality of the system.

@glennjones @Paul_Kinlan FWIW here's my post-morterm the (mostly UX) concerns listed http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-device-apis/2014Jun/0102.html…. All APIs are *hard*.
