Minutes and Resolutions Tokyo F2F Wed: Media Queries, Paged Media, and Japanese Layout

• Resolved: Keep aspect-ratio and device-aspect-ratio in Media Queries, no changes to syntax.
• Resolved: To fix malformed grammar in Media Queries, Anne may choose to either define a grammar for MQ or resolve the differences with the global grammar.
• Discussion of Kihon Hanmen and what it means (seek “kihon hanmen” in the minutes)
• Resolved: The width and height properties apply to the page box, follow rules in CSS2.1:10 wrt calculating margins. This behavior is at-risk.Rationale: Japanese layout requires setting the page area size, then using auto margins to position the box on the paper.
• Resolved: @page inherits from the root. Because this was not defined in the previous CR, conformant implementations may instead use the initial value.

Also had a joint meeting with part of the Japanese Layout Task Force (see JLREQ. Discussed various tricky issues that will feed into various CSS drafts, including:

• Effect of ruby on line-height
• Japanese line breaking rules and their variation
• Brief interchange on justification
• Using ‘letter-spacing’ for tracking and tsumegumi
• punctuation-trim, fonts, and fullwidth/halfwidth identities of punctuation
• Glyphs and implementation of text-emphasis dots
• Hanging punctuation
