I don't think we can count the Opera engine 16:44:59 ... we have one implementation in Mozilla (Gecko) 16:45:01 ... unfortunately 16:45:07 ... in discussing w/ the Chrome team 16:45:14 ... they're not just yanking the implementation 16:45:28 ... they're not interested in implementing the specification as spec'd 16:45:36 ... we could work to go to CR 16:45:45 ... but, six months from now, we're unlikely to be able to exit 16:45:50 ... also, editorally 16:45:59 ... there's no industry momentum behind Microdata 16:46:03 ... it was nice at the time 16:46:22 ... it lit a fire under the RDFa to force them to make their API fit to market 16:46:35 ... it pushed the RDFa partisans to align w/ what we asked them to do 16:46:37 ... now that it's done 16:46:46 ... I don't think the entire world needs to work on two different 16:46:56 ... Practically speaking, Schema.org started w/ Microdata 16:47:05 ... but now RDFa has a lite version, which is quite usable 16:47:13 [despite its terrible name] 16:47:17 ... I don't think orgs like Schema.org which are using embedded metadata 16:47:20 ... want to do things twice 16:47:34 ... I don't think the investment is necessarily needed to continue 16:47:46 ... I, myself, don't think it makes sense to continue to pursue this 16:47:48 q? 16:47:51 ack chaals 16:48:02 chaals: I put myself on the queue to call Bollocks 16:48:13 ... 1. Microdata is in large part not directed at browsers 16:48:21 ... it's the least interesting application in many cases 16:48:30 ... browser implementations aren't always the implementations you're looking for 16:48:32 jernoble has joined #html-wg 16:48:35 ... in some things we do in HTML 16:48:40 ... we couldn't care less if it's used in the browser 16:48:44 ... things like Authoring systems 16:48:46 markw_ has joined #html-wg 16:48:50 ... for Microdata, it's for Data management systems 16:49:01 ... you might lose Browser implementations 16:49:09 ...

MikeSmith spoke about this 17:05:36 ... can we get multiple implementations 17:05:43 ... is everyone turning away from this? 17:05:49 ... option 3, doesn't that cause more risk? 17:05:52 ... to the 5.1 spec 17:05:57 ... not getting multiple implementations? 17:06:00 ... not getting things people want? 17:06:10 ... and it seems to contradict the extensions spec model 17:06:15 darobin: i understand your confusion 17:06:19 ... putting it in 5.1 17:06:24 ... a. it's less work for us 17:06:33 ... b. it gives us more time, 5.1 target is 2016 17:06:43 ... it doesn't push us to make a decision in the next six months 17:06:53 ... give people a chance to use it, or give us a chance to notice it's completely dead 17:07:03 ... re: relationship to extension specs 17:07:11 ... it interacts w/ lots of other sections 17:07:25 ... it interacts w/ syntax, drag and drop, etc. 17:07:30 ... it's difficult to extract 17:07:34 s/re:/c. re:/ 17:07:41 paulc: other questions/comments?

17:09:15 ... the reason this is in microdata5.0 17:09:22 ... was because the WG made a decision to split out the content 17:09:32 ... it's the attributes you're most interested in, right/ 17:09:32 action: sam to bring microdata proposals to the working group 1) terminate as a note, 2) take attributes to CR, 3) move to 5.1 17:09:32 Created ACTION-225 - Bring microdata proposals to the working group 1) terminate as a note, 2) take attributes to CR, 3) move to 5.1 [on Sam Ruby - due 2013-04-30]. 17:09:36 s|/|?| 17:09:53 chaals: yes 17:10:02 paulc: why can't we just fold this back into 5.0? 17:10:12 chaals: same political reasons as why we split it out 17:10:24 MikeSmith: if we put the attributes back into the spec, it won't affect progress of the spec 17:10:29 ... we don't have conformance requirements 17:10:34 paulc: right, that's why i asked 17:10:43 ... but chaals, i think you're right, we'd get an Objection 17:11:02 [ Time check ] 17:11:33 topic: HTML Test Suite coverage, gaps and status 17:12:03 i/think we can do Microdata first/Topic: Getting Microdata to CR (Editorial team)/ 17:12:07 RRSAgent, draft minutes 17:12:07 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2013/04/23-html-wg-minutes.html timeless 17:12:07 zakim, code?

17:34:08 the conference code is 4865 (tel:+1.617.761.6200 sip:zakim@voip.w3.org), ArtB 17:34:11 ... but reviewing them is a good way to start 17:34:16 ... we have w3c-test.org 17:34:22 ... it has a web platform test subdirectory 17:34:48 ... for HTML, see we have a breakdown 17:35:33 http://w3c-test.org/web-platform-tests/master/tools/coverage/?algos=2&assume-idl=85&assume-tooling=50&idl=5&level=1&propdef=8&reftest-factor=2&review-success=50&review-time=30&rfc2119=4&sort-by=id&spec=html&test-time=60 17:35:38 +Art_Barstow 17:35:53 foliet: where is the Accessibility section? 17:35:53 BobLund has joined #html-wg 17:35:58 darobin: this is html 17:36:06 ... w3c has a fellow on loan from Facebook 17:36:08 ... tobie 17:36:10 -> http://w3c-test.org/web-platform-tests/ Web Platform Tests 17:36:20 ... and they're working on figuring out how to make the accessibility testing side work 17:36:39 ... accessibility testing is harder to make automatable 17:36:46 ... they're considering Web Driver 17:36:52 foliet: there's a community of driven people 17:37:03 q+ 17:37:05 ... we could put Brawn instead 17:37:15 darobin: we're in the process of raising funds 17:37:26 ... and trying to develop tools, to do test running, result gathering, analysis, etc. 17:37:34 ... for manual tests, we have a prototype, we're not happy w/ it 17:37:42 ... i wouldn't want to launch a big crowd sourcing on it now 17:37:53 ... they'd give up on it within a day 17:38:00 ... for CSS, there are plenty of things you can't automate 17:38:05 q- 17:38:07 ... we want to push a crowd-sourcing effort 17:38:10 ... no timeline for that 17:38:12 ... plh ? 17:38:20 plh: we're going to develop the infrastructure 17:38:35 ... i don't think we'll be in a position to push for crowd-sourcing w/in 6 months 17:38:41 ... and it's hard to align with a timeline 17:38:52 ... i can't rely on crowd-sourcing if i need to deliver by 2014 17:39:01 darobin: you were talking about crowd-sourcing writing of tests 17:39:08 ... but foliet was talking about crowd-sourcing running 17:39:23 foliet: we have a strong community, both professional and volunteer 17:39:28 ... who'd be able to run tests 17:39:38 plh: for long term, we'd like to rely on Driver 17:39:47 ... i don't think we'll rely on it before next year 17:39:55 darobin: Accessibility testing is definitely part of it 17:40:22 plh: when we test or [Media].mediagroup, it would be part of that 17:40:32 darobin: to give you a sense of the size of the Test Suite 17:40:36 ... we have over 10,000 tests 17:40:38 [/me wonders about webdriver running accessibility tools that are not built into browsers - but not sure that's a critical thing to say here] 17:40:40 ... we want 26,000 17:41:02 paulc: from my point of view, this is going at it ass-backwards 17:41:11 ... HTML5 WG went into CR w/ a passive exit critera 17:41:19 s/critera/criteria/ 17:41:27 ... that we don't need to test things if we claim we have interop 17:41:39 ... we have a grant to not to write tests 17:41:53 ... i understand there's a wide desire to have a broad test suite for the platform 17:42:00 ... our job in this WG is to get out of CR 17:42:12 ... if we believe we have compat in an area, then we don't need tests there 17:42:20 ... this is creating a higher mountain than we have to climb 17:42:25 darobin: there are 2 things 17:42:32 ... `the test suite we need to exit criteria` 17:42:34 paulc: no 17:42:42 ... we need test results 17:42:58 ... you don't need a test suite to get out of CR 17:43:06 ... you need interop proof that the director will accept 17:43:14 ... this WG went into CR w/ another way to do that as well 17:43:24 ... "if we can identify parts of the spec that are broadly implemented 17:43:30 ... by implementations out there 17:43:37 ... then we don't need a test suite for that" 17:43:46 darobin: we would need 8.5 years to finish this 17:43:53 ... i don't think our goal is to exit CR in 2021 17:44:03 ... which is why, within the context of exiting CR for the HTML WG 17:44:09 ... there's a subset we need to target 17:44:16 ... we don't need 100% in all these boxes 17:44:24 ... it's important to have syntax, and some other things 17:44:28 ... but we need to prioritize 17:44:43 ... figure out which areas we feel definitely need a test suite to demonstrate interoperability 17:44:47 q+ 17:44:54 ... i don't think we can go to the Directory and say we don't have any tests 17:44:56 q+ 17:45:02 ... this group needs to decide as a group which to work on 17:45:19 ... we have 6000 tests waiting for review 17:45:27 ... testing for Video, Track, things we know are new 17:45:51 mjs: it makes sense to prioritize the tests 17:46:01 ... stating the criteria as the new features that need tests 17:46:04 ... isn't the right reason 17:46:21 ...
