Hello, I'm a developer for the linuxwacom project. For the past few weeks I've been reading up on Tizen, which is a new Linux-based OS for mobile devices. Since its quite similar to other Linux distributions, I've been trying to figure out how to get pen data up to apps. Tizen apps are written in HTML5, which is being extended to support pen events[1]. With Webkit shaping up to provide apps access to this API[2], the only remaining layer I'm not sure about is the EFL glue that binds X and Webkit together.
I'm wondering what it would take to get e.g. pen pressure flowing up through EFL to appplications. I've taken a quick look through the API and underlying code, and while there doesn't appear to be explicit pen support there appears to be some foundation that could be built on (e.g. "multi" events look very interesting, though appear to be semantically intended for multitouch not pen). Is there any interest in providing EFL applications with pen data? More importantly, is there anyone willing to help a newbie to the project like myself?
