I think the implication is that consortium staff like Doug and Philippe can "git'r'done". 15:06:02 PLH: I think that is correct 15:06:10 … but we can only do that for editorial changes 15:06:20 … but if have substantive changes, must go through a WG 15:07:09 AB: so for the context of Touch Events REC, that would mean a couple of options, one being restart the Web Events WG; another option would be to add TE spec to an existing WG 15:07:18 … is that about right PLH 15:07:26 PLH: it would depend on what WG you have in mind 15:07:39 … there is a lot of history re the IP for Touch Events 15:07:44 … so that could be tricky 15:08:12 DS: well the PEWG could be one such WG, assuming the WG was not closed 15:08:21 AV: would that require PEWG being re-chartered? 15:08:27 PLH: yes, definitely 15:08:39 DS: note PEWG charter expires in early May 15:09:00 … it could be less overhead 15:10:07 … if substanative changes, must have a chartered WG 15:10:12 AV: you mean TE spec? 15:10:14 DS: yes 15:10:29 AV: but for PE spec, we can extend PEWG charter, right? 15:10:32 DS: yes 15:11:15 PLH: figure out what you want to do and then we'll figure out the process 15:11:20 AB: excellent advice 15:11:23 AV: agree 15:11:39 AB: thanks PLH 15:12:02 RB: the TECG's original plan was to just fix bugs 15:12:05 asir has joined #pointerevents 15:12:15 … we originally didn't think we would need substantive changes 15:12:35 PLH: if changes were not substantive, don't need a WG to publish 15:13:00 asir has joined #pointerevents 15:13:02 DS: we need to be careful about what we mean by bug fixes and the nature of the changes 15:13:18 … we need to evaluate each change 15:13:38 … if changes are substantive i.e. affect an implementation, then we need a WG 15:13:45 "Corrections that do not affect conformance" 15:13:52 PLH: if a change affects conformance, it is substantive 15:14:07 http://www.w3.org/2014/Process-20140801/#editorial-change 15:14:09 RB: I think we have 1-2 changes that could be considered substantive 15:14:18 … I'm ok with leaving those in limbo now 15:14:31 … we can figure this out in a few months 15:14:47 … but first must agree on all of the changes we want to make 15:14:57 AB: what Rick says resonates with me 15:15:02 asir has joined #pointerevents 15:15:56 … think we should focus on the issues and ignore the issue about if we need a WG or not for now 15:16:01 RB: agree 15:16:11 JR: agree 15:16:30 agreed 15:16:40 Topic: Next step(s) for Pointer Events 15:16:55 AB: so the PE REC was published Feb 24 http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/REC-pointerevents-20150224/ 15:16:55 ...  the REC's errata page is https://www.w3.org/wiki/PointerEvents/errata 15:17:26 AB: do we have a sense yet if we have changes to make? 15:17:35 JR: we don't have any errata now 15:18:02 … would like to know if Rick would like to explore potential changes for v.next 15:18:19 RB: yes, I am interested in exploring the outstanding issues 15:18:24 … f.ex. touch-action 15:18:26 I'd like to see touch-action support broadly: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=133112#c11 15:18:47 RB: would be good to get touch-action in Safari 15:19:26 AB: so are you saying touch-action needs work before Safari people would be willing to implement? 15:19:31 RB: yes 15:19:44 AV: so we should explore this as part of PEWG? 15:19:47 RB: yes 15:20:00 JR: so do you see this as a bug fix or a new feature? 15:20:14 RB: think we need some new semantics re panning 15:20:21 JR: so that would be a new feature 15:20:43 … want to make sure I understand the procedural options 15:20:51 AV: are there other feature requests? 15:21:06 JR: there are some items in the wiki but I don't think any are significant 15:21:07 in particular, the request from safari was that we add pan-right, pan-left, pan-up and pan-down (in addition to pan-x and pan-y) 15:21:23 JR: we should review those 15:23:06 AB: if we get agreement to add new features, we can extend the PEWG charter 15:23:46 RB: think IE could be in violation of the mouse compat part of the spec so we might want to address that 15:23:51 JR: yes, good point 15:24:10 RB: Safari concerns are mouse compat and the touch-action property 15:24:29 JR: the mouse compat is optional 15:25:04 DS: these items don't feel like they would require a re-charter 15:25:12 … that is are more like charter extension 15:25:18 AV: sounds right to me 15:25:29 RB: if we update mouse compat to match what IE is doing 15:25:47 … TECG charter includes PE and TE compat 15:25:58 … perhaps we need that in one document 15:26:13 AV: that's not a requirement, right but an option, right? 15:26:17 RB: yes, I'm asking 15:26:34 JR: so you think Rick we need more info about mouse compat for TEs 15:26:53 RB: we need something that defines interaction between PEs and TEs 15:26:59 … and we don't have that now 15:27:07 AV: that could be a separate spec, right? 15:27:09 RB: yes 15:27:27 … do we do that in a separate doc or update the related text in the PE spec 15:27:42 DS: depends on the details 15:28:02 … re the charter discussion, re-chartering isn't really that much overhead 15:28:32 … there is indeed a posibility of a Formal Objection but that process can happen in the background and not affect the WG 15:29:09 AV: think we need to get clarity and agreement on what we want to do first, then we can figure out the process related sub-issues 15:29:52 DS: we'll get into some potential IP problems if a PEWG spec starts making normative statements about Touch Events 15:30:16 … if TE is within charter of PEWG, it could result in some Members not joining a re-chartered PEWG 15:30:30 s/TE is/TE is put within/ 15:31:24 JR: not sure we want to expand PEWG charter to include TE normatively 15:31:50 … think we can, however, talk non-normatively about TEs in a PEWG spec 15:32:03 … but agree with PLH we should figure out what we want to do first 15:32:16 … let's first get agreement on touch-action changes 15:32:31 … and figure out a plan for the compatibility text/guildelines 15:32:42 scottgonzalez has joined #pointerevents 15:33:17 … If we agree we need to add new features to TE spec, we can figure out the process to make that happen later (don't need to decide now) 15:34:11 DS: if we agree TE needs substantive changes, a new chartered WG will likely be needed 15:34:43 RB: Jacob's plan sound good to me 15:34:54 DS: think we should go forward now as we've discussed 15:35:07 AB: thanks for the clarifications and positions 15:35:28 … a conclusion of mine is the PEWG still needs to get agreement on next steps 15:35:41 … especially WRT touch-action and compatibility 15:36:02 … and it would appear that an extension beyond May 2015 is likely 15:36:12 AB: is that a fair summary? 15:36:20 AV, RB, JR: yes 15:36:57 AB: does anyone have the action re touch-action? 15:37:18 DS: are we going to have calls? 15:37:30 RB: think we should have a call if/when one is needed 15:37:41 … I'll take the action to take this to the list 15:37:47 DS: ok, sounds good 15:38:18 RB: I think we should use this slot for one or both group calls 15:38:23 AB: sounds good to me 15:38:35 DS: I'll take an action to get the charter extended 15:38:42 JR, AV, RB: SGTM 15:38:56 ACTION: doug work on a charter extension for the PEWG 15:38:56 Created ACTION-147 - Work on a charter extension for the pewg [on Doug Schepers - due 2015-03-24]. 15:39:24 ACTION: Rick start a thread re what we want to do with touch-action vis-a-vis Safari and other requests 15:39:24 Created ACTION-148 - Start a thread re what we want to do with touch-action vis-a-vis safari and other requests [on Rick Byers - due 2015-03-24]. 15:39:46 AB: thanks everyone! 15:40:03 Topic: Touch Events CG Update 15:40:10 Chair+ Rick 15:40:15 What we're trying to achieve: 1) improve interoperability, 2) improve spec quality, 3) solve conditional Touch Event API problem, 4) define interaction with pointer events, 5) potentially explore adding new capabilities 15:40:34 ScribeNick: rbyers 15:40:37 Scribe+ Rick 15:40:47 RRSAgent, make minutes 15:40:47 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2015/03/17-pointerevents-minutes.html artb 15:40:51 ScribeNick: tdresser 15:40:55 Scribe+ Tim 15:41:02 mouseenter/mouseleave - Mustaq in progress 15:41:02 Touch that can cause scroll / click - blocked on Ben’s implementation 15:41:02 :hover/:active - blocked on Jacob 15:41:12 rbyers: We still have a few outstanding interop issues. 15:41:18 RRSAgent, make log Public 15:41:34 RRSAgent, make minutes 15:41:34 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2015/03/17-pointerevents-minutes.html artb 15:42:01 rbyers: Improving interop is what's most important. 15:42:18 rbyers: There has been some good work on improving spec quality. 15:42:26 https://github.com/w3c/touch-events/issues/6 15:42:38 rbyers: This is a bug in the spec, currently blocked on Mustaq. 15:42:52 rbyers: That's the only thing on my list currently. 15:43:08 rbyers: Now that we're on github, we should be make further improvements. 15:43:35 rbyers: We need to solve the conditional touch event API problem, which is blocked on the SourceDevice api proposal. 15:44:21 rbyers: #4: interaction with pointer events - we should clarify what we're doing with pointer events and the mouse event model. 15:44:49 rbyers: #5: Right now the group isn't doing much to add new capabilities to touch events. 15:44:59 rbyers: Did I miss anything? 15:45:15 rbyers: Is there anything on that list that is out of scope? 15:45:36 rbyers: artb - is that a reasonable high level status update? 15:46:04 artb: Yeah, that's helpful. By the time we get agreement on the touchevent spec, we'll likely have a spec that includes substantive changes from the v1 recommendation. 15:46:23 artb: That's fine, but we should think about what that means. We may reconvene web events. 15:46:30 artb: We'll cross that bridge when we get there. 15:46:38 rbyers: Sounds good. 15:46:50 rbyers: jrossi - does that sound reasonable? 15:47:14 jrossi: Yeah, the list looks accurate. It probably will result in substantive changes, but I agree that we can deal with that when we get there. 15:47:28 rbyers: I think all of those items are blocked on things that can be dealt with on the list. 15:47:31 rbyers: Anything else? 15:47:43 Topic: AoB 15:48:22 JR: Microsoft is trying very hard to get a new build that will include flags for Touch Events 15:48:38 … I'll announce when it's ready 15:48:43 JR: default? 15:48:55 s/JR: default?/RB: default?/ 15:50:03 rbyers: We check if there's a touchscreen attached on startup - jrossi, when do you check? 15:50:07 jrossi: We check on page load. 15:50:12 rbyers: That's better, we should do that. 15:50:35 jrossi: We do have some issues still with hybrid devices. 15:50:57 jrossi: There are also a few places where co-existance of touch events and pointer events causes problems, where people register for both event types. 15:51:03 jrossi: This doesn't seem very common though. 15:51:19 rbyers: Hearing about the web compat impact is very valuable, thanks jrossi. 15:51:51 rbyers: Everything we're learning about IE web compat is relevant to Mozilla's pointer event implementation, and for the pointer event polyfill. 15:52:08 .. so a problem for Chrome's users as well, even without native PE support 15:52:54 jrossi: I'll be gone March 24-31. 15:53:16 -Art_Barstow 15:53:17 -Plh 15:53:18 -Chrome_Team 15:53:19 -Doug_Schepers 15:53:21 -jrossi2 15:53:22 -[Microsoft] 15:53:25 RRSAgent, make minutes 15:53:25 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2015/03/17-pointerevents-minutes.html artb 15:53:28 -Scott_Gonzalez 15:53:33 teddin has left #pointerevents 15:53:44 Chair: Art, Rick 15:53:48 - +1.571.426.aaaa 15:53:49 Scribe: Art, Tim 15:53:50 RWC_PEWG()11:00AM has ended 15:53:50 Attendees were Scott_Gonzalez, Art_Barstow, Plh, +1.571.426.aaaa, Chrome_Team, [Microsoft], Doug_Schepers, jrossi2 15:53:55 RRSAgent, make minutes 15:53:55 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2015/03/17-pointerevents-minutes.html artb 15:55:03 smaug has joined #pointerevents 15:58:28 scott_gonzalez has joined #pointerevents 16:58:27 plh has left #pointerevents 17:08:28 Zakim has left #pointerevents 17:09:08 RRSAgent, bye 17:09:08 I see 2 open action items saved in http://www.w3.org/2015/03/17-pointerevents-actions.rdf : 17:09:08 ACTION: doug work on a charter extension for the PEWG [1] 17:09:08 recorded in http://www.w3.org/2015/03/17-pointerevents-irc#T15-38-56 17:09:08 ACTION: Rick start a thread re what we want to do with touch-action vis-a-vis Safari and other requests [2] 17:09:08 recorded in http://www.w3.org/2015/03/17-pointerevents-irc#T15-39-24
