Yesterday, we resolved to publish either a CR or, preferably if the Process allows it, a PR of Writing Modes Level 3. However, I'm unconvinced we have a testsuite sufficient to leave CR (and proceed to PR) with; we seem to have hundreds of reftests which fail due to anti-aliasing differences. According to the test harness, Firefox passes 89.02% of the testsuite (which it makes out to be 1120 tests); running locally all automated tests, I get 1045 tests (910 parents, 135 subtests; as far as I'm aware the harness has no notion of harnesses), of which 457 pass and 588 fail: this implies that 89.02% of the entire testsuite cannot pass. Looking into many of the failures, it quickly became apparent that hundreds of these failures is down to anti-aliasing differences in reftests; I've filed a bug for this at <https://github.com/w3c/csswg-test/issues/1174>. As such, I at least don't view the testsuite as ready to publish a PR and would raise a formal objection if we resolved to do so. /Geoffrey.
