Mobile Web Application Best Practices Draft Published

The Mobile Web Best Practices Working Group has published a Working Draft of Mobile Web Application Best Practices. This document specifies Best Practices for the development and delivery of Web applications on mobile devices. The recommendations expand upon statements made in the Mobile Web Best Practices 1.0 (BP1), especially those that relate to the exploitation of device capabilities and awareness of the delivery context. Learn more about the Mobile Web Initiative Activity.

Interesting that there's also a section about user experience including perceived latency, interaction method, and data consistency. Furthermore, they describe how to handle device capability variation. In other words, adaptation but mainly at the server or client and not within the network. I would appreciate if they could also consider this as a possibility...
