trivial clarification of Spec on opensocial.getEnvironment().supportsField

[Robert Evans]

The spec states that when a container supports a field, this call
should return true. It does not state what it should return when it
does not. My expectation is that it would return false. I only ask
because the compliance gadget fails on some containers returning "not
implemented".

Should we state explicitly that it should return false?

Bob,

Looks like you're talking about: http://www.opensocial.org/Technical-Resources/opensocial-spec-v08/opensocial-reference08#opensocial.Environment

"Returns true if the specified field is supported in this container on the given object type."

would turn into:

"Returns true if the specified field is supported in this container on the given object type, and returns false otherwise."

+1 from me.

As Chris noted that this has been approved here:

I have committed this small text change to the spec repository. It will be picked up for the opensocial js docs shortly.
