Kai: current status: no real issues, but needs some feedback
... I found some inconsistencies in the spec
... among other things in the relaxng

Bringing more visibility to web compatibility test suite

<dom_scribe> Dom's message on WCT

Dom: does that sound good?

Wilhelm: sounds good indeed

Kai: yes
... not sure about detailing the technical aspects
... wouldn't it be effective to file bugs on the relevant browsers?

Dom: I think doing a technical report is a better way to get visibility in the W3C community
... would also help to get a press release rolling

Wilhelm: I'm not sure how much additional work needed for the technical report
... a press release would be great

Carmelo: +1

<scribe> ACTION: Dom to check about requirements for press release on web compatibility test [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/11/04-mwts-minutes.html#action05]

<hendry> http://www.w3.org/Mobile/

Kai: would be good if it was easier to get to the web compatibility test

<hendry> from that site it's hard to find http://www.w3.org/2008/06/mobile-test/

<scribe> ACTION: Dom to make it easier to get to wct from /Mobile on W3C site [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/11/04-mwts-minutes.html#action06]

<hendry> and http://www.w3.org/2008/06/mobile-test/ is a monster URL. Ideally it should as short as possible ..

<hendry> or w3.mobi?

http://xrl.us/bmqox

<hendry> len(xrl.us/bmqox) > w3.mobi :P

Kai: would be to raise the profile of building acid test-like things than building guidelines

dom: difficult to get people interested in building tests, unfortunately

Next teleconf

<hendry> not in UK either btw

RESOLUTION: Wilhelm to chair call on Nov 11
