They're not submitted to the testsuite. 07:15:48 glazou: please send those tests to arronei 07:16:08 Issue 101 is reassigned to Arron. 07:16:10 Figuring out what the text should be is the hard part... 07:16:16 Bert: 107, edited. 07:16:31 Bert: 109, not done yet. 07:16:58 Bert: Not sure if it can be done this week, but certainly next week. 07:17:27 glazou: So by the time of the next conf call? 07:17:29 Bert: Yes. 07:17:49 Bert: 110 relies on 109. 07:18:12 glazou: Was john daggett supposed to be here? 07:18:21 howcome: Yeah, we're missing jdaggett and szilles. 07:18:34 Bert: 111, edited. 07:18:40 glazou: Okay, we need John for those testcases. 07:18:46 Bert: 114, edited. 07:18:51 Bert: 115, edited. 07:18:57 Bert: 117, edited. 07:19:35 Bert: 118, edited. 07:19:47 Bert: 119, edited. 07:19:57 Bert: 120, not done yet. 07:20:14 glazou: Can you get it by the conf call? 07:20:15 Bert: Yes. 07:20:37 Bert: 121, I sent a proposal. 07:20:52 glazou: Did anyone review that? 07:21:07 Bert: I just sent it 2 days ago, so maybe people haven't seen it yete. 07:21:19 is there a url? 07:21:20 glazou: Action on everyone: review the proposal by next conf call. 07:21:34 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Aug/0411.html 07:22:08 Bert: 122, not done yet. 07:22:22 glazou: You already have the dbaron proposal for that, so same ETA? 07:22:24 Bert: Yes. 07:22:31 Bert: 127, edited. 07:22:35 Bert: 128, edited. 07:22:57 glazou: Open issue now, about backup in tokenizer - 129. 07:23:05 Bert: I sent a proposal to the list about that last week. 07:23:16 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Aug/0417.html 07:23:34 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Aug/0368.html 07:25:52 glazou: Has anyone tested this in an implementation? 07:25:57 johnjansen has joined #css 07:26:07 dbaron: The only real change is that we change how we handle bad urls. 07:26:25 dbaron: I think that we made the change in Moz a few weeks ago when the group decided to make the change in priciple. 07:26:34 glazou: No objection? Good. 07:26:53 RESOLVED: Accept Bert's proposal for 129. 07:27:36 Bert: 131, I think I've already done it. 07:27:42 fantasai: I need to go through all of them and make sure. 07:27:50 glazou: Issue 134. 07:27:55 and then update the issues list ) 07:28:19 I changed Gecko to match the new url() tokenization in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=569646 which has been on trunk since June 3. 07:28:25 arronei: Done. 07:28:54 Bert: 137, not done yet. 07:29:14 Bert: 138, not done yet. 07:29:19 CesarAcebal has joined #css 07:29:47 Bert: 139, haven't done yet, but should be very easy. 07:30:07 Bert: 140, sent a proposal yesterday. 07:30:23 Ûhttp://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Aug/0435.html 07:30:45 glazou: Everyone, review this so we can decide on it next call. 07:30:58 Bert: 141, edited. 07:31:07 Bert: 142, edited. 07:31:32 Bert: 143, not done yet, but should be easy. 07:32:25 glazou: 144, text-decoration and visibility. iirc, we didn't finish the discussion and deferred it to the ftf. 07:32:36 glazou: I think you said that all browsers have interop, which doesn't match the new proposal. 07:32:53 arronei: Yeah, they all do the same thing - drawing the decoration in the invisible area. 07:33:20 glazou: So we can either change the spec or tell all the implementors to change. Your choice. 07:33:59 glazou: I don't think decorations actually matter to authors very much. 07:34:07 [jdaggett enters the arena] 07:34:24 dbaron: I know we intentionally changed the image underlining, and I want to keep that. 07:34:35 lstorset has joined #css 07:37:50 dbaron: So I want to keep the spec, and change Moz's impl. 07:38:23 dbaron: Doing so would let us remove the quirks/standards impl for text-decoration. 07:38:34 dbaron: I think webkit has a similar distinction. 07:38:38 s/remove/unify 07:38:38 s/remove/unify/ 07:39:26 glazou: Hakon, opinion? 07:39:52 johnjansen: We'd prefer not to change our impl. 07:40:17 http://software.hixie.ch/utilities/js/live-dom-viewer/?%3C!doctype%20html%3E%0D%0A%3Cspan%20style%3D%22color%3Ablue%3B%20%20text-decoration%3A%20underline%3B%0D%0A%22%3E01%0D%0A%3Cspan%20style%3D%22color%3Ared%3B%20%20%20text-decoration%3A%20underline%3B%20%0D%0Avisibility%3Ahidden%3B%22%3E11%0D%0A%3Cspan%20style%3D%22color%3Agreen%3B%20text-decoration%3A%20none%3B%20%0D%0Avisibility%3Avisible%3B%22%3E21%0D%0A 07:40:18 dstorey: Is it a minor change? 07:40:23 glazou: Yeah, should be. 07:41:02 jdaggett has joined #css 07:42:52 fantasai: What if you use visibility:collapse? 07:43:25 dbaron: You don't draw the collapsed cell at all. It's quite different. 07:43:44 howcome: If we have interop, we should just keep that. 07:43:55 dbaron: I think the interop behavior is a complete disaster. 07:44:03 dbaron: And the quirksmode behavior is better than standards mode. 07:44:59 glazou: Proposal - leave it undefined in 2.1 and leave a note, define it properly in css3. 07:45:39 RESOLVED: Leave issue 144 officially undefined, add a note that it will be resolved in css3. 07:45:47 arronei: I'll remove the tests. 07:47:03 dbaron: The issue is that the spec was unclear about whether text decorations were based on the visibility of the text or the visibility of the element with text-decoration. 07:47:23 fantasai: The spec is not clear, but the rest of the model that it outlined in the spec is more consistent with one impl than the other. 07:47:43 glazou: Also, we discussed both underlined text, and about underlining images. 07:47:53 fantasai: The image underlining issue is taken care of. 07:47:59 glazou: What about impls? 07:48:11 arronei: It's inconsistent. 07:48:36 glazou: So the only ambiguity is about underlining text in a visibility:hidden element? 07:48:39 fantasai: Yeah. 07:49:16 Bert: 145, not done yet. I can get it by next call. 07:49:37 Bert: 146, not done yet. 07:49:45 Bert: 147, not done yet. 07:49:58 Bert: 148, not done yet. 07:50:16 Bert: 149, not done yet. 07:50:59 glazou: I think Moz already implemented that. 07:51:23 dbaron: I think other impls have it coming now. 07:51:39 I think other impls have done it for a while 07:54:20 glazou: The decision was made during a conf call, and recorded in the minutes. You should be reading the minutes and objecting as soon as possible afterwards if you miss a call. 07:54:54 dsinger: I think we might want a note that some user agents start off at a zoom factor other than 1. 07:59:44 howcome: Where in this decision does it say that this only applies to screen media? 08:00:37 fantasai: It doesn't need to do so explicitly. There is a note that high-res devices should set the in or other physical unit to the true physical size, while low-rez devices are recommended to use the px as the anchor unit. 08:02:17 jdaggett: I think we shoudl go ahead and draft up some revised text for that. 08:02:27 glazou: dsinger, can you send a suggestion for the note you want? 08:02:43 glazou: If Hakon and others have comments, please make them as soon as possible. 08:02:49 Bert: 150, edited. 08:03:36 Bert: 151, not done yet. I can get it done by next conf call. 08:03:40 Bert: 152, edited. 08:04:07 Bert: 153, not done yet. Next conf call. 08:04:32 arronei: 154, now that jdaggett and I are both here we can talk about it. Next conf call. 08:04:39 Bert: 155, not done yet, but should be trivial. 08:05:03 jdaggett: 156, the edit has been put in, but I think some of the surrounding statements need to be cleaned up to match. 08:05:25 jdaggett: Is that a new issue or just wrap it up in the current one? I also haven't written a new test case. 08:05:27 glazou: Not a new issue. 08:05:41 jdaggett: Ok, I'll make a proposal for further edits tomorrow. 08:06:00 Bert: 157, not done yet. 08:06:31 Tab: Proposal 831 cleared up some minor collapse issues 08:06:45 jdaggett, I think the edits didn't make it in 100% as there was a sentence "Once the family's weights..." in the proposal that didn't make it in for 156 08:06:49 afaict 08:07:30 Fantasai: issue 158 08:07:49 s/831/8.3.1/ 08:07:55 Tab: Anything I've already is probably invalid at this point 08:08:12 Fantasai: I've seen some proposals from Anton, let's sit down and talk it through 08:08:28 Glazou: Do we need to make some time 08:08:50 Tab: Yes, we'll talk by ourselves tonight and then need some time 08:09:01 Glazou: We'll do our best 08:09:23 Glazou: Deferred until discussed 08:09:34 glazou: Issue 159. 08:09:36 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Feb/0015.html 08:10:17 fantasai: That's what my 8.3.1 rewrite was for. 08:10:27 TabAtkins_: And I think arronei reviewed it and said it was good. 08:10:27 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Aug/0391.html 08:10:36 dbaron: Link to the latest proposal? 08:10:55 dbaron: I need more time to review it to make sure it's good. 08:11:15 glazou: We'll discuss it on the first conf call after the meeting. 08:11:35 ACTION everyone: review the 8.3.1 proposal 08:11:35 Sorry, couldn't find user - everyone 08:11:59 Bert: 160, not done yet. 08:12:23 Bert: 161, not done yet. 08:12:27 Bert: 163, edited. 08:12:35 Bert: 164, edited. 08:12:41 Bert: 166, edited. 08:12:49 Bert: 167, edited. 08:12:58 Bert: 168, edited. 08:13:10 Bert: 169, edited. 08:13:23 Bert: 170, not done yet. 08:13:33 Bert: 171, edited. 08:13:45 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Aug/0404.html 08:13:47 glazou: Open to the WG, 172 - table caption and content overflows. 08:14:10 FWIW - I reviewed http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Aug/0391.html and it looks good to me (fantasai's v3 of Clarifying 8.3.1 Collapsing Margins) 08:14:52 fantasai: Issue is that the caption overflows in non-useful ways when the table is small. 08:15:19 fantasai: My proposal was to make the caption act like a cell for purpose of table width. 08:15:25 dbaron: Does any impl do that? 08:15:32 fantasai: Yes, Konqueror, and some older browsers, I think ie6. 08:15:52 fantasai: This changes the computed final width of the table, essentially providing a minimum width for it. 08:16:25 fantasai: So when you lay out a table, you calculate the actual width, and then use min(that, specified width). I'm proposing using the caption width also. 08:16:55 Tantek: http://test.csswg.org/source/contributors/csswg-issues/incoming/css2.1/table-caption-004.xht 08:18:14 dbaron: It might be worth noting that this only applies to top/bottom captions. 08:18:28 fantasai: We can note that, sounds like a good idea. 08:22:47 glazou_ has joined #css 08:23:36 yes 08:23:48 jgraham: you have access to w3c-css-wg@w3.org ? 08:23:51 CesarAcebal_ has joined #css 08:26:28 fantasai: This proposal will break the table-caption-004 test. 08:27:37 dbaron: If the caption is large enough to make the page scroll, this change will make the entire table stretch off the page. 08:27:45 glazou: Will this break anything? 08:28:16 dbaron: table captions are used so rarely that I don't think it will affect anything significant. 08:29:15 tantek: If I rewrite the test case to use , I think IEMac5.2 matches your proposal. 08:29:29 fantasai: Right, a lot of the older generation of browsers do that. 08:30:28 glazou: Can we reach a decision here? 08:30:43 dbaron: I'm okay with it. I'm not super happy when the caption is extra wide, but shrug. 08:31:39 gsnedders: mid-afternoon probably 08:31:51 gsnedders: after all issues are browsed and discussed 08:32:22 dbaron: Probably in the case that the caption width has a small fixed width, we should make it so that the table can be larger than that and the caption stays small. 08:32:51 glazou: Okay, I'll probably join then 08:33:05 RESOLVED: Accept fantasai's proposal for 172. 08:33:23

Thought it should be normalized as a line break in pre 08:49:33 fantasai: But that would make DOM text and generated content text behave inconsistently, because CR is ignored in generated content 08:50:02 fantasai: I think I'll still need a while to do this. 08:50:08 fantasai: A couple of hours. 08:51:01 fantasai: Maybe can do it before we end here, if not, then by the next conf call. 08:51:13 glazou: Send it by next Wednesday, so we have a week to review it before the conf call. 08:51:23 glazou: Otherwise it's undefined in 2.1 08:51:52 chrisl: Does this have any effect on test suites? 08:52:08 ACTION Elika: Send a proposal by next wednesday. 08:52:08 Created ACTION-248 - Send a proposal by next wednesday.

Mark as invalid. 08:53:20 Bert: 179, edited. 08:53:23 Bert: 180, editd. 08:53:49 fantasai: 181, I don't think it needs to be addressed right now. 08:53:52 Bert: 182, edited. 08:54:10 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Aug/0025.html 08:54:13 glazou: new open issue, 183 - handling of malformed media types 08:55:14 glazou: We seem to be saying two different things here about what to do with the malformed queries. 08:55:39 ChrisL has joined #css 08:55:47 chrisl: It should be possible for us to just match up with what MQ says now. 08:56:11 dbaron: What's the mismatch? Is it just that we have 2.1 say that unknown identifiers dont' match anything, but aren't parse errors? 08:57:54 fantasai: So 2.1 says to ignore unknown media types, but do you ignore malformed ones or throw them away? 08:58:03 dbaron: I think we ignore. 08:58:40 The appendix G grammar says it has to be an identifier in 2.1 08:58:42 fantasai: I don't think anything is said that media types have to be identifiers 08:58:53 but it doesn't seem to say that outside the appendix G grammar 08:59:20 dbaron: Does this affect any impls? 08:59:35 dbaron: Anyone that doesn't implement MQ that are currently maintained? 08:59:49 dbaron: Because this change only affects impls that do 2.1 and not MQ. 08:59:56 fantasai: I think some of the printers may. 09:00:11 fantasai: But they probably want to implement MQ as awell 09:00:26 glazou: Can't we just say that MQ supercedes 2.1 here? 09:00:39 fantasai: That's in the snapshot, but it's still not clear what an "unknown media type" is. 09:01:11 dbaron: Since we're making Appendix G informative, we should add a note that media types must be identifiers, and non-identifiers make the whole thing invalid. 09:01:25 dbaron: We should probably go through Appendix G and check for similar occurences like that. 09:01:59 dsinger: Is there a difference between an unknown and an invalid type? 09:02:09 fantasai: If it's not an identifier, it's invalid and throw it away. 09:02:18 "@media and @import rules with unknown media types are treated as if the unknown media types are not present. " 09:02:40 "@media and @import rules with unknown media types (as identifiers) are treated as if the unknown media types are not present." 09:02:43 ? 09:02:57 plus "If an @media rule contains a malformed media type (not an identifier) then the statement is invalid" 09:03:25 s/as identifiers/that are nonetheless valid identifiers/ 09:03:43 Note: Media Queries supercedes this error handling. 09:04:17 RESOLVED: Accept the change above for issue 183. 09:04:26 Action Bert: Make the above edit for issue 183. 09:04:26 Created ACTION-249 - Make the above edit for issue 183.

[on David Baron - due 2010-08-30]. 09:06:38 fantasai: 187 - The spec is confusing in this case. it's inconsistent about normal bidi working. I can write an email about that tonight. 09:07:04 fantasai: I may need some time for this Tuesday or Wednesday. 09:07:23 johnjansen: dbaron, can you do that appendix G trawling by next conf call? 09:07:25 dbaron: Maybe. 09:07:54 arronei has joined #CSS 09:07:56 glazou: If we get the issue list closed down, perhaps we can have a firm roadmap for 2.1 by next conf call. 09:08:08 Bert: 188, edited. 09:08:10 Bert: 189, edited. 09:08:22 Bert: 190, not done yet. 09:08:42 glazou: 191, define stacking level of marker box. 09:08:50 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2009Dec/0093.html 09:10:23 fantasai: I think arronei and I talked about this, and wanted to make it undefined in 2.1, since you can't move the marker box anyway. Also, there are some significant details that may be affected by implementations, so we want to wait and then spec behavior in CSS3. 09:10:58 fantasai: We shouldn't put a recommendation in 2.1, but we might put a note saying it's undefined or leave it out completely. 09:11:05 glazou: I prefer marking it undefined. 09:11:29 RESOLVED: Add a note about marker box stacking level for outside markers being undefined in 2.1. 09:11:41 ACTION fantasai: Propose note for issue 191 making marker box stacking level undefined. 09:11:41 Created ACTION-251 - Propose note for issue 191 making marker box stacking level undefined.

Any objections? 09:23:24 fantasai: Looks like we have Opera and Firefox. 09:23:31 dbaron: And Chromium seems to do the same thing too. 09:26:52 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Feb/0156.html 09:26:56 TabAtkins_: IE8 doesn't generate the second half. 09:27:06 glazou: Fantasai, write up proposal. 09:27:20 ACTION fantasai: Write up a proposal for issue 195. 09:27:21 Created ACTION-252 - Write up a proposal for issue 195.

to clear the float here, even though the float would be inside the clearing element 11:13:22 s/clearing element/clearing box/ 11:14:59 dbaron: We could fix this by adding a parenthetical to the float rules talking about floats inside the clearaing element to explicitly include the contents of run-in elements 11:15:12 Inside "The 'clear' property does not consider floats inside the element itself or in other block formatting contexts." in 9.5.2 11:16:20 to something like "The 'clear' property does not consider floats inside the element itself (including floats inside a 'display:run-in' element that runs in to the element) or in other block formatting contexts." 11:16:23 dsinger: Is it completely clear what "inside" means in that section? 11:16:25 everyone: noe 11:16:27 s/noe/no/ 11:17:35 We also need to fix the float positioning rules in 9.5.1 11:17:39 because they also go by source order. 11:17:42 bert: So what if you have a float in between the run-in and the block also? 11:21:04 and if the float not in the run-in has 'clear' on it then you have an explicit contradiction 11:21:11 we need a box tree 11:22:03 discussion of float placement rules 11:22:34 steve: So instead of saying that the float is inside the element that the float is inside a run-in rendered inside the principal box. 11:22:40 dbaron: how does that help? 11:23:06 dbaron: .. old problem. Doesn't help the new problem. 11:23:10 dbaron: The new problem is if you have 11:23:23 11:23:27 11:23:36 11:23:44 dbaron: The floats are both left 11:24:05 floatA, floatB { float: left; } 11:24:15 floatB, block { clear: left; } 11:24:25 dbaron: The definition of clear on floats says that floatB has to be below floatA 11:24:38 dbaron: Because it has to clear any elements earlier *in the source document* 11:25:09 dbaron: The definition of clear on blocks says that the block has to be below floatB 11:25:35 dbaron: And the float positioning rules say that floatA has to be even with the top of the block that contains, i.e. at or below the top of the block 11:26:25 steve: So say for a run-in, that combines with the following block, it is considered a reordering in the source docuent 11:27:28 so if "below" is "greater than", then floatB < floatA, block < floatB, and floatA <= block, which is a problem 11:27:45 tab: The more and more we try to patch the definitions here, the more of a mess it's going to get 11:27:57 tab: Maybe we can patch it here in 2.1 and make a CSS3 Box Tree module 11:28:17 ChrisL: We don't have to expose the box tree to the dom or anything, but we need to be clear about how it works 11:29:18 Bert: Another option is to say that floats inside the runin disable the runin 11:30:17 steve: What if I'm using float to get an initial drop-cap? 11:30:19 lstorset2 has joined #css 11:31:39 steve: We should go with run-in reordering the source tree in certain circumstances, and limit the circumstances where this occurs 11:32:05 steve: for layout purposes only 11:32:39 miketaylr has joined #css 11:32:42 dbaron: We'd have to go through the whole spec and decide which instances would use the actual source order and which would use the virtual source order 11:32:52 dbaron: Which is what we mean by defining the box tree 11:33:31 alex: You'd also need to update Appendix E 11:34:43 fantasai: so for chapter 8 and above you pretend the source has been reordered 11:36:40 but ... what happens if you need to be able to say something on the run-in that applies *without* this re-ordering, because then you would not be able to? 11:37:08 steve: the def of run-in box says that it's rendered as if it were an inline element in the next block box 11:37:29 steve: you could just clarify that the contents, including floats and abspos, are includedin this move 11:38:51 steve: you might need a note that you need an apparent reordering of the source 11:40:00 http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#run-in 11:40:06 "the run-in box becomes the first inline box of the block box" 11:40:37 http://www.w3.org/Style/Group/css2-src/visuren.html#run-in 11:40:37 http://www.w3.org/Style/Group/css2-src/visuren.html#run-in 11:41:59 steve: So we need a note to clarify 11:42:26 ACTION: Steve write note to clarify that run-in's contents are reordered by rule 2 in 9.2.3 11:43:26 Could not create new action (failed to parse response from server) - please contact sysreq with the details of what happened. 11:43:26 Could not create new action (unparseable data in server response: local variable 'd' referenced before assignment) - please contact sysreq with the details of what happened. 11:43:58 RESOLVED: Add note to be written by Steve for CSS2.1 issue 198 to clarify that this effectively causes a reordering of the source tree as far as all of the layout rules are concerned 11:46:41 http://wiki.csswg.org/spec/css2.1#issue-199 11:48:05 so line boxes should be created for inline-level content and potentially marker boxes 11:48:14 collapsed-away whitespace does not create a line box 11:49:01 jdaggett: so you have a line box with no text in it.

Bold and non-bold versus bolder/lighter 12:21:47 jdaggett: On windows you only have bold and nott bold 12:21:59 jdaggett: you need to test on e.g. MacOS to get the full range of testing 12:22:07 jdaggett: Windows will allow trivial passes 12:22:34 glazou: The test suite isn't supposed to demonstrate interop, it'e supposed to demonstrate implementability 12:22:50 glazou: The tests aren't conformance tests, they're spec implementability tests 12:23:04 steve: You're testing for interoperable implementability 12:23:26 jdaggett: When I say font-weight 100, it should pick the 100 weight font not the 400 weight font 12:23:40 jdaggett: but on Windows you only get the 400 weight font 12:24:02 dsinger_: The problem is what if you have two section so fthe spec that can be implemented, but not at the same time 12:24:44 steve: The requirement is that there exist at least 2 impls 12:25:00 dbaron: You can also get tests that fail in all windows implementations, and you need to find non-Windows implementations to get passes 12:25:02 s/section so fthe/sections of the/ 12:25:50 glazou: Next step is writing the implementation reports.. 12:25:59 dbaron: Arron, can you share that list of which tests pass on which browsers? 12:26:03 JohnJansen: No, we can't 12:26:31 ChrisL: The full data is a matrix in a spreadsheet that shows which tests pass in which versions of which browsers. 12:26:55 JohnJansen: It's a very expensive process 12:27:43 And I would like to talk to Microsoft managers to get the relevant parts of that released to the working group. It will get us out of CR earlier 12:27:55 glazou: For Selectors, hixie and I had to write the implementation reports ourselves 12:28:21 glazou: It's always the case that some Members put in more resources into the WG on some things than others 12:29:08 ChrisL: We wouldn't be asking MS to provide the data if you didn't already have it. 12:29:34 dbaron: I don't consider it worth my time to go through the test suite. 12:29:53 dbaron: But if you provide a set of tests that we fail, then I will review those tests. 12:30:02 dbaron: So could you share the list of tests that fail in at least one browser? 12:30:16 Arron: I've shared the lists of tests that don't pass in any browser, and those that I think are invalid 12:30:35 Arron: Once we decide the test suite is solid, and we're getting there with Gérard reviewing a lot of the tests, 12:30:57 Arron: Then when you run the tests you can look more closely at the tests you fail 12:31:28 howcome: dbaron has 2 points I would like to emphasis 12:31:40 howcome: One is that the tests are too many and give us too little 12:31:58 howcome: We've all found ourselves in situations doing work on behalf of other browsers. 12:32:14 howcome: And you have done that -- all the tests you've contributed 12:32:21 glazou: It's perfectly normal. 12:32:32 glazou: Microsoft wants 2.1 to be released ASAP, because you rely on it. 12:32:44 glazou: Contributing the results of the tests will speed up the process. Not contributing it will slow us down. 12:33:01 glazou: It's in your interest to contribut the results. 12:33:07 Steve: The issue isn't the test results, the issue is the implementation reports 12:33:19 I would like to see Arron's list of 'tests passed by no windows browser' on the wiki, then remove tests that are passed on other platforms 12:33:38 Steve: So we're not asking for a contribution of test results, we're asking for contribution of to the implementation reports 12:34:01 Arron: These are only the HTML test results, not the XHTML tests 12:34:27 dbaron: So there could be additional tests that don't pass in any browser. 12:35:18 JohnJansen: We shared a lot of the data we have. The list of suspected invalid tests, and the list of tests that don't match. 12:35:23 s/match/ pass/ 12:35:56 howcome: Can you provide the list of tests that fail in any one browser? 12:36:22 glazou: A few years ago the only company interested in print was YesLogic. 12:36:27 glazou: And afterward HP 12:36:35 glazou: But not the other vendors were interested in print 12:36:45 glazou: But we contributed time to working on those specs 12:37:02 JohnJansen: The tests we contributed are available to anyone to run 12:37:15 JohnJansen: We're not hiding anything. 12:37:40 Arron: It's our time and money that we've put into creating the test results 12:38:14 dsinger_: I'm grateful if he gives me the data, I don't think I can ask him to do that work for me and save me that time and money. 12:38:35 JohnJansen: I wouldn't want you to trust our results either. 12:40:24 dsinger_: Can we keep a page on the wiki of tests that are suspected to be wrong? 12:41:48 ACTION: fantasai make said wiki page 12:41:48 Created ACTION-256 - Make said wiki page [on Elika Etemad - due 2010-08-30]. 12:41:52 howcome has left #css 12:42:47 fantasai: People can start on implementation reports now. I can even throw out a beta 4 on Monday 12:43:00 fantasai: But whenever I publish a release now I list all tests that have changed 12:43:14 fantasai: So between releases you'd only have a handful of test results you might need to run 12:43:43 glazou: I am requesting browser vendors to start implementation reports now. 12:44:28 Arron: It takes 16 hours to run the tests by hand 12:44:39 dsinger asks about automating them 12:44:48 fantasai and Arron say it will take much longer to automate them 12:45:07 dsinger_: How good is the coverage of the test suite 12:45:28 gsnedders: Automating the tests isn't just a one time thing, because everyone would want to run them as regression tracking 12:45:36 gsnedders: if they're manuall, they won't be run very often 12:45:44 gsnedders: Automating the tests wont' just save time once 12:46:57 jdaggett: For CSS3 modules do we have to follow this pattern? 12:48:13 glazou: If we don't get your implementation reports, things are going to slow down. 12:48:41 glazou: It relies on you. 12:48:46 glazou: The sooner we get it, the better. 12:48:51 dsinger_: Coverage? 12:49:01 gsnedders++ 12:49:20 dbaron: There's questions of how you measure test coverage 12:49:32 dbaron: you'd have to measure e.g. code coverage 12:49:41 gsnedders: exactly. 12:51:19 fantasai explains what we have 12:51:34 dbaron: The spec has lots and lots of interactions among features, many of which are not obvious 12:51:45 dbaron: We don't have good coverage of those interactions. 12:52:08 dbaron: There are sentences in the spec that require hundreds or thousands of tests just for that sentence. And we don't have that coverage. 12:53:00 glazou: Anything else on the test suite and the roadmap? 12:53:10 glazou: I remind you that the goal is still PR before the end of the year. 12:53:18 glazou: This is important for both the WG and the W3C itself. 12:53:27 glazou: We started this roughly ten years ago 12:53:51 ChrisL: If the CSS2.1 can get to PR by the end of the year, there's still a chance that SVG 1.1 can normatively point to CSS2.1. 12:53:55 ChrisL: I'd like that to happen. 12:54:14 glazou: if we move 2.1 to PR, Selectors can move to REC, we solve a lot of dependencies. 12:54:35 s/1.1/1.1 Second Edition/ 12:54:50 JohnJansen: If we got to PR by the end of the year, does that put REC at the end of January? 12:56:21 scheduled charter discussion for after the break 12:56:22

The work being done was trying to define existing behavior 14:20:43 dbaron: I would go for low priority, and keep it on the list. It's very similar to 2.1 maintenance -- it's an issue we deferred it because it was difficult, but it's 2.1 level work 14:21:44 dbaron, alex: if someone comes to work on it, should be able 14:21:44 to 14:21:50 CSS3 Text and CSS3 Text Layout 14:21:54 medium priority 14:21:58 needed for EPUB in Japan 14:22:05 glazou: Anything else not in the list? 14:22:37 Tantek: CSS4 UI 14:22:55 glazou: We can just write CSS UI under high priority, and nott list the level 14:23:11 dbaron: We should add Transforms 3D to the list 14:23:16 dsinger: add it to low priority 14:23:25 dbaron: We're implementing 3D, so we're getting to 2 implementations 14:23:29 dbaron: suggest medium 14:24:28 howcome: CSS Backgrounds and Borders Level 4 14:27:34 jdaggett: Line Box module? 14:27:54 jdaggett: I'd like to have something that's clearer on how text with different baselines is aligned 14:28:14 CSS Line Box 14:28:16 -> low priority 14:28:48 dbaron: The current draft is Michel Suignard's draft from 2001 14:28:59 dbaron: Plus a half-finished pile of edits I made to make it match 2.1 better 14:29:14 dbaron: And then some new features, we may or may not want 14:29:35 Tab: CSS3 Images 14:29:52 fantasai: we probably want that high priority 14:30:20 nimbupani has joined #css 14:31:04 Bert: Speech? 14:31:20 dbaron: There's an incubator group working on speech 14:31:28 dbaron: Not sure if they'd be interested in this 14:32:51 kept off 14:33:04 dbaron: Scoping? 14:33:22 dbaron: HTML5 has scoped style sheets.

There's an email about it from Hakon. 14:49:03 5 minutes break 14:49:44 apologies, i won't be able to dial in for the viewport discussino 14:49:55 i have to go and get some stitches removed 14:54:05 http://ajaxian.com/archives/the-css3-song 14:55:16 Topic: Viewport Proposal 14:55:38 Rune: I wrote an internal spec to explain how we implement the viewport meta tag that Safari implements 14:55:50 Rune: I've also written a propsoed CSS syntax for that functionality 14:55:56 Rune: Here's the URL to the proposal 14:56:09 http://people.opera.com/rune/TR/ED-css-viewport-20100806/ 14:56:13 http://people.opera.com/rune/TR/ED-css-viewport-20100806 14:56:21 howcome has joined #css 14:56:30 http://people.opera.com/rune/TR/ED-css-viewport-20100806/ 14:56:42 Rune: Not ging to go over proposal in detail, just have a couple of slides 14:56:42 SteveZ2 has joined #css 14:56:54 Rune: Problem is that in mobiel browsers you have a very narrow viewport. 14:57:10 Rune: If you format the page with the viewport as the ICB, most documents on the Web will look really bad 14:57:24 Rune: What mobile browsers now do is use a different ICB, more like a desktop width 14:58:10 Rune: Since the desktop width is being used, if page authors want to make pages specifically for smaller screens, they need to override that desktop width that the browser uses 14:58:29 Rune: THe current status is that Apple introduced a viewport meta tag 14:58:38 Rune: Several browser vendors have made their own implementation 14:58:51 Rune: Here's an example, you can specify a device width and set the zoom scale 14:59:13 Bert: You set the initial zoom. That's the reader's business, not the author 14:59:32 Bert: It's the wrong way around. If I want a specific width, I should just set this. 14:59:38 Tantek: I strongly agree with your problem statement. 14:59:56 Tantek: But what does this get you that max-width on the root element does not 14:59:57 ? 15:00:11 fantasai: (or min-width?) 15:00:19 Tantek: I think the meta tag idea was just dumb 15:00:52 Tantek: If the author has set a max-width, the device didn't need to zoom out any more 15:00:57 Tantek: There's no need for the meta tag 15:01:19 Tantek: This was bad design by someone who did not understand how CSS works. 15:01:57 Tantek: I'm addressing your third point -- the need for the author saying that a document is made to fit for smaller screen sizes 15:02:06 dbaron: I think that's not entirely true. 15:02:17 dbaron: Another problem that come up with pages that use this is pages that have a lot of text. 15:02:28 dbaron: You really just want to read the text. You don't want to zoom out, and then zoom in to read the text. 15:02:43 dbaron: It doesn't matter how wide the page is. You want the font size to be readable on the device. 15:03:00 dbaron: In some cases you have a layout that works for anything from 150 to 400 pixels 15:03:12 dbaron: e.g. i want to read a newspaper article on a mobile phone 15:03:39 dbaron: I just want the text readable. I don't necessarily want to set a max-width. 15:04:20 Alex: fixed positioning is also not fixed by max-width 15:05:08 Tantek: I agree that dbaron's use case is valid. But it's not the problem solved by viewport meta tag, which *is* solved by max-width. 15:05:33 Tantek: I would like to see better guidance, with the UA understanding and using and trusting max-width on the root element. 15:09:14 Tantek: That solves the common use case. 15:09:29 szilles has joined #css 15:09:55 glazou: Let's hear out the rest of the presentation, and we'll discuss that afterwards 15:10:28 Rune: Proposed syntax is to standardize the viewport meta functionality in CSS syntax 15:11:13 Rune: Proposal is an @viewport block similar to @page block 15:11:25 Rune: Properties include width, hieght, minimum-scale, maximum-scale, etc. 15:11:52 glazou: I suggest changing "initial-scale" to "zoom" 15:12:18 Rune: Issues include fixed positioning 15:12:33 Rune: Fixed positioning is defined relative to the viewport 15:13:00 Rune: with a containing block that matches the ICB 15:13:15 Rune: The actual viewport here won't be the same as the ICB 15:13:24 alexmog: That's why we have this concept of a virtual viewport 15:13:50 Rune explains how the small viewport moves around the virtual viewport, and then pushing it beyond that boundary causes the content to jump 15:14:10 Rune: My propose defines an extra viewport. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to call it the viewport or not. 15:14:55 Rune: Other issues are, is this out-of-scope for CSSWG? 15:15:02 Rune: e.g. the scaling values 15:15:11 glazou: I think it's in scope, just question of whether we want to work on it 15:15:28 Rune: You can also argue that aturhos should make pages that look good on all devices in the first place 15:16:12 Bert: The problem with this it that it breaks all pages that are designed to work on mobile browsers 15:16:29 Bert: My mobile browser worked fine, honored media queries, etc. 15:16:34 Bert: But on Safari it doesn't work. 15:16:43 Bert: I had to add this extra thing to make them readable. 15:17:03 Bert: The ones that used to be readable on devices, no longer are readable. 15:17:22 glazou: What is the interaction with Media Queries? 15:17:35 Rune: The width and height media queries will match the ICB 15:17:45 glazou: So what is the parsing order? 15:20:02 fantasai: Paged media has the same problem with @page { size: ... }, see spec text there 15:20:24 fantasai: I share dbaron and bert's concerns about universal design 15:20:40 dbaron: i tried to design a page for iPhone both on landscape and portrait mode, and failed 15:21:12 dbaron: The logic of the implementation in Safari is somehow wrong 15:22:01 Andreas: Does it behave differently if load it in portrait mode first vs landscape mode first? 15:24:04 +smfr over phone 15:24:27 Tantek: I said that for the fixed width use case, the author can width or max-width today. 15:24:36 smfr: I filed a bug on Apple, we just need to fix that. 15:24:51 Tantek: For the device-width case, I do believe it belongs in CSS 15:25:11 Tantek: I'll state for the record I proposed @viewport in 2004, and it was rejected :) 15:25:58 Simon: I've been looking at feedback on the mailing list 15:26:12 Simon: A problem is that a lot of the specs refer to a viewport 15:26:32 Simon: This proposeal introduces 2 viewports, and you need to specify which viewport is being talked about 15:26:48 Simon: And also the interaction between the 2 viewports needs to be specified. 15:27:05 Rune: Yeah, I'm not sure if "viewport" is the right name 15:27:14 Rune: esp. fixed positioning 15:27:20 Simon: Fixed positioning is really difficult 15:27:31 Simon: It gets really weird, especially with scaling 15:27:59 Simon: Another concern I have is, I'm worried that we're settling on an implementation detail 15:28:11 Simon: Some of them do real scrolling behavior, others do panning 15:28:29 Simon: I'm worried that this is trying to specify something that different UAs will want to do differently. 15:28:52 Tantek: There's wording around the way that overflow is specified in CSS that provides a lot of flexibility in how UAs do "scrolling" 15:29:04 Tantek: I would like to see similar flexibility in this case as well. 15:29:16 Tantek: So I think it's possible to address your concern. 15:29:34 lstorset has joined #css 15:29:35 dbaron: So, with regards to how much of this to specify 15:29:56 dbaron: I think one of the criteria of how much to specify is what's going to break web content if someone else decides to go do it differently. 15:30:11 dbaron: I think for some of the things you metnioned in CSSOM View, there's only one way that'll make e.g. events work right 15:30:15 wrt clientX, etc. 15:30:23 dbaron: You have to go with the assumptions the pages are making 15:30:50 Simon: Another thing is what authors need 15:31:08 Simon: e.g. some use cases need getClientRects to be relative to the visual viewport 15:31:48 Rune: I think in most cases you want things relative to the layout viewport 15:32:22 Rune: I see the visual viewport as a peephole over the layout viewport 15:33:12 tantek_ has joined #css 15:33:15 dsinger has joined #css 15:33:26 glazou has joined #css 15:33:27 dstorey has joined #css 15:33:30 jdaggett has joined #css 15:33:44 TabAtkins_ has joined #css 15:34:04 gotta go 15:34:40 Simon: I would survey current mobile browsers and see what they do in terms of scorlling, clientrects, etc. 15:34:58 Rune: I have a comment about the scale values. 15:35:14 Rune: The constraining procedure that has been taken from the Apple implementations 15:35:33 Rune: they alter the effect of the width and height values 15:35:52 for the record - my original thoughts on styling the viewport (from 1998!) http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/1998Sep/0063.html and my proposal for @viewport with width and height properties from 2004: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2004May/0294.html 15:37:16 mollydotcom has joined #css 15:37:45 fantasai says some stuff 15:39:34 about how allowing fixed sizes but not ranges is bad 15:39:45 ChrisL has joined #css 15:41:56 Tantek: We could put this in CSS4 UI 15:42:12 fantasai: or make a new module 15:42:30 Rune: If we remove the CSS syntax, what I have is the viewport meta tag 15:43:01 Tantek: How soon would you implement this? 15:43:22 Rune: Well, we have to support the meta tag. We don't have any pressing reason to support @viewport 15:43:37 Rune: It doesn't take too much time to implement it, but that depends on internal priorities 15:43:47 howcome: I think the approach makes sense 15:43:55 howcome: The big question is WebKit, what are they going to do 15:44:01 dsinger: We're happy to discuss it 15:45:19 glazou: My personal opinion is that it should be its own module. 15:45:25 glazou: Should we add it to the scope of the new charter? 15:45:27 howcome: Yes 15:47:48 Tantek: Feels like something good to whiteboard during a break 15:47:59 glazou: Should we add that to the charter? 15:48:19 fantasai: yes 15:48:31 what to call it? 15:48:33 CSS Viewport? 15:48:37 CSS Device Adaptation? 15:48:48 steve: put it in the charter for IPR commitments 15:49:37 Tantek: I think there's a level of urgency here 15:50:05 Steve: So the anser is, IPR commitments apply only to things that become REC. 15:50:24 Steve: There are two points where you can issue a call for exclusions. first one is FPWD, and the other is CR 15:52:02 Curt` has joined #css 15:52:43 fantasai: So, Rune, will you edit the spec? 15:52:47 Rune is hesitant 15:53:41 RESOLVED: CSS Device Adaptation added to charter at medium priority, Rune to edit along with someone from Apple 15:57:03 dstorey has joined #css 16:00:34 dsinger_ has joined #css 16:00:46 tantek has joined #css 16:01:32 meeting closed 16:11:20 ChrisL, you asked to be reminded at this time to go home 16:13:22 Zakim has left #CSS 16:35:21 glazou has joined #css 16:50:05 nimbupani has joined #css 17:09:58 tantek has joined #css 18:23:06 tantek has joined #css
