Status update

mikepie: Follow up registration of the protocol handler
... waiting to hear from Shwetank
... Have not hear back
... I'll ping him

Florian: it would be polite. By our rules, we silence implies agreement, so we can move forward anyway

mikepie: I'll try to check with him when his back, and submit in a week if I don't hear back

Florian: aswan is now a member, so he can edit the spec I've set up. I just need to know your github id.

aswan: it is aswan.

Florian: I think we had a dependency on WebIDL, was that the case, and what's the status?

http://browserext.github.io/minutes/

kmag: I think we wanted to change something in the mail, but I don't remember what. Looking at the minutes.
... But I think we're actually blocked on that, any feedback would be minor changes.

Florian: So we can get going on the specs.

TPAC meeting

andrey-r: I saw our meeting was confirmed, great.

Florian: There's a new scheduling conflict with a DPUB event. Should we reschedule?

all: no, it's ok.

RESOLUTION: Keep the TPAC meeting schedule

Proposed additional agenda items: https://github.com/browserext/browserext.github.io/issues/9

WebDriver additions for Extensions

mikepie: We will eventually want to develop an automated test suite to validate extension hosts
... to do that, there's somethings that we need that you cannot do with Webdriver
... you can already install an extension
... but you cannot interact with popups, or activate the extension

Florian: I agree this is needed.
... did you have concrete proposals on the missing pieces

<andrey-r> I agree as well wptdriver support would be very much welcome

mikepie: I have written a document, I can share it

<kmag> http://rawgit.com/dhbrett/webdriver/extensions_reduced/webdriver-spec.html

andrey-r: Great idea, I need it as well.

mikepie: not sure what the next step is
... the document share above is has extensions over the original one

Florian: the proper way would be to follow their group's practices, and either send a pull request, or a mail to their list.

mikepie: I have colleagues involved, I'll check with them

kmag: we should get developer feedback as well

mikepie: will do

ACTION mikepie to post this to the browserext and webdriver group for comments

Florian: we may want to chime in the WebDriver meeting at TPAC as well.

mikepie: I think they're meeting on monday and tuesday

Florian: I can't attend then, but you don't need me

kmag: I should be able to attend if I can prepare early enough for travel

andrey-r: testing group meets on monday as well
