Action items

Maciej: none

Call for Consensus

Maciej: we closed a few of them
... picture element, srcset attribute, use cases and responsive for images, and EMA
... picture, srcset, and use cases and reqs for responsive images passed
... eme did not pass
... extensive discussion
... several objections and support
... statement from w3c team on whether this type of work is something to work on or not
... the team said it's appropriate even if they didn't get a technical position
... we need to look into some of the objections
... folks should use public-html-media extensions and www-archive otherwise

Glenn: what is the chairs plan for moving forward on the FPWD request?
... as noted, fpwd does not require consensus

Maciej: plan is to look at what sort of good faith is made to resolve objections
... it's at least possible to make some progress there
... the broad question of principle regarding w3c is larger than the html wg
... the w3c team and the advisory committee are the authorities for that
... we have said we'll give people time to file bugs and issues until the 15th

Maciej: we'll look at the next steps after that

Maciej: it's not clear if the majority of the group supports the current approach
... we might do a survey to estimate that later

Glenn: the CfC was to the list subscribers, it doesn't represent what participants of the WG think
... would help to have a survey addressed to the WG members rather than list subscribers

Joe: quick clarification: you said that the w3c team that this was an appropriate topic to cover and then heard you said we're waiting for them

Maciej: it's appropriate to work in this area
... to the extend it's an open question, it should be take to the team and the AC

Joe: so, are we still waiting for clarification?

Maciej: no, if anybody doesn't like what the W3C team said, it should be taken to them directly

Joe: so, the next step is to look at the technical objections?

Maciej: correct

Task Force

Maciej: Testing first

Kris: darobin created a coverage report using the 'new' folder structure that maps to the spec (yeah!)
... I recommend people look at it
... canvas looks good
... some others don't

... we do have some tweaks in language in the summary of objections received

... we don't expect suprises at this point
... I'll forward the request to publish
... we're eager to move
... so it'll be in html and wai pf groups on Monday
... tf is pleased that Steve Faulkner is one of the editors
... he filled bugs on the alt text in the spec
... reached out to Robin about this as well
... so should be moving along as well
... finally dealing with bugs

... MSE was this week
... we're making progress
... done some updates since the FPWD

... on EME, we have 15 new bugs
... the EME group will meet next Tuesday and those bugs will be at the top of the list
... discussion happening in the bugzilla

Other Business

Maciej: there is a call for editors for the polyglot specification
... a few open bugs for this one
... would be to have an active an editors' team
... please get in touch with us if you're interested

Janina: we had a highly productive workshop with IDPF (EPUB) and hopefully some of them will join to work here
... they want to standardize around HTML5 and have some concerns
... I suggest looking at the minutes
