<Vlad> Guys, I am hoping for the best but W3C hhas changed their WebEx setup due to some issues with unauthorized usage and it now requires the presense of a host to start a call

David and I are on the phone; seems to be working (?)

<scribe> scribenick: rsheeter

Vlad: font media type is ongoing @ IETF

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/Fonts/WG/track/actions/194

Vlad: turned out 'glyf' needed clarification as well

<Vlad> Recent diffs: http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/webfonts/WOFF2/spec/Overview.html.diff?r1=1.74;r2=1.75;f=h

(was calling for 0-contour glyph rather than a "real" empty glyph)

Vlad: Reference impl does empty glyphs already. Spec has been updated to call for empty glyph.

<Vlad> Thanks CHris, we are ok

(discussion of lsb's for empty glyphs)

(should we ignore lsb or require 0)

Chris: Would someone do that on purpose?

Rod: if the field doesn't do anything nobody would have worried about it before
... so question is, can lsb for empty ever actually do anything or is it completely meaningless

Vlad: Couldn't confirm that in asking around; safer to not nuke even for empty. (paraphrased slightly)

<trackbot> Closed action-191.

close action-192

Candidate Recommendation

Vlad: Chris, how do we get there?

Chris: we need to be able to show comments, discussion, related changes, etc

Vlad: All ye against moving to candidate recommendation speak now!
... (bear in mind further changes become harder to make)

Chris: We have to show changes would not invalidate a previous review

Vlad: only expected change is adding description of recent changes

Resolved to move to Candidate Recommendation

(much rejoicing)
