I think Opera showed how that's an issue with their WF2 support... 17:55:24 MattRaymond: not sure what you mean 17:55:29 MattRaymond: What's the problem, exactly? I you mean "people will implement and then we'll be constrained by those implementations", that's not necessarily a bad thing... 17:56:14 It would be nice if there was an established way to handle experimental extensions, like we already can in CSS the the "-vendor-" prefix. 17:56:58 aaronlev_ has joined #html-wg 17:57:04 You could already do that for types: "-vendor-datetime"... 17:57:38 With attributes it could work though it would be ugly. For elements I don't think it can work 17:58:07 e.g. would just become the de-facto standard rather than 17:58:18 and I don't quite see what the win is 17:59:06 Perhaps an attribute, then: ??? 17:59:48 ? 18:00:00 Oh, that looks bad! :( 18:00:13 What would that attribute do? 18:00:33 That's why it looks bad. 18:01:11 What's the problem you're trying to solve? 18:01:42 smedero has joined #html-wg 18:02:08 close action-42 18:02:08 ACTION-42 Ask Olivier and Karl about progress on "story telling and test cases" since the Nov ftf http://www.w3.org/2007/11/09-html-wg-minutes.html#item01 closed 18:02:40 Idea is to somehow have experimental markup work only in a specific UA, but I guess that in itself is a poor idea on the Internet... 18:03:56 Matt/Jgraham: not sure what's wrong with experiment-canvas? 18:04:41 MattRaymond: Well it will already only work in UAs that support it... the main problem I see is that sometimes the first implementations aren't great, or the spec moves and people need to update their implementation without breaking existing content 18:04:46 If a UA is implementing a new element like , then people can just write and already it will work only in that specific UA 18:05:50 Philip: I guess the worry is that the behavior of that element might change over time 18:05:52 the problem happens when people have already written the content, and you want to standardize it slightly differently. Hence the x-ua-compatible (which covers things like the XHR "we'll change it in the standard" things as well as CSS2.1 changes from CSS2) 18:06:01 WILL change over time. 18:06:12 unless you just standardize the first experimental implementation. 18:07:02 In either case, if you don't have a good specification of the feature BEFORE implementation, it hurts everyone. 18:07:39 It need not be open, per se, but it would need to be at least implementable from the spec. 18:08:09 Not that I think well-specced proprietary markup is the way to go, mind you. 18:08:09 "need not be open"? 18:08:10 ChrisWilson: That depends on a lot of things, like how long the experimental implementation is around for, how big the incompatible changes are, how many sites use the feature. For there have been a few incompatible changes that early adopters have agreed to 18:08:33 s/adopters/implementors/ 18:08:53 CW: To be implementable by others, it need not be from an open standards process, in other words. 18:09:13 But it does need to be implementable in an open fashion. 18:09:50 ah. True. But open standards should be openly developed, I presume? 18:10:08 Yes. Provides more review and input. 18:10:28 Also assures less of a conflict of interest in development of the spec. 18:10:29 mostly doesn't come from an open standards process 18:10:39 MattRaymond: Having features developed by standards committees has not historically led to good standards 18:10:54 (and it seems people think that was a mistake) 18:11:03 Implementation and development need to be closely entwined 18:11:16 s/development/standardization/ 18:13:31 adele has joined #html-wg 18:15:20 True. Obviously, ideas have to start somewhere. ODF started as a proprietary format. The difference between that and something like OOXML is that ODF was both intended for external implementation, was altered to better support other standards during the standardization process, and went through a much more open process. Standardization of various concepts should start at as early a stage as... 18:15:22 ...possible to minimize damage. 18:17:11 Yeah, I agree 18:43:31 gsnedders has joined #html-wg 18:45:27 aaronlev_ has joined #html-wg 18:50:00 DanC_lap has joined #html-wg 18:57:23 anne: he was hoping someone would be able to change hixie.ch so that it doesn't serve some of the tests with Content-Encoding: gzip 18:57:33 anne: and he thought you might be able to make that change. 19:03:01 gavin_ has joined #html-wg 19:04:31 aroben: Hixie and Hixie only can 19:04:37 gsnedders: that was my assumption 19:07:49 smedero has joined #html-wg 19:15:42 adele has joined #html-wg 19:23:14 aaronlev_ has joined #html-wg 19:35:05 adele has joined #html-wg 19:45:34 Isn't that why you have access, so you can judge what needs to be added? 19:47:20 yes 19:47:51 I don't have a clear idea of what criteria I should use to judge though 19:51:21 (the things so far have all seemed reasonable, but I don't really know what to do if someone asks for something crazy to be added) 19:53:18 jgraham: can you add the issue of not mandating well-formness errors in text/html? 19:53:35 s/errors/fatal errors/ 19:53:53 jgraham: everything you've added so far made sense as an issue to me. 19:54:36 Zakim has left #html-wg 19:56:03 At one point 19:56:18 Mike Smith and Dan Connolly had a thread on this 19:56:20 DanC said 19:56:22 "An issue is something that the whole WG should decide on; 19:56:22 just because one person makes a request doesn't oblige 19:56:22 the whole WG to act on it. 19:56:23 Feel free to take actions any time you please, but be 19:56:23 conservative about making new issues, please." 19:56:51 that said... the issues raised seemed like matters that generated a large amount of discussion within the group 19:57:04 longdesc and image alt="" 19:57:24 they're pretty well documented on the wiki (I know image alt="" is and I think longdesc/summary are too) 19:58:10 well...
