Mighty early for the meeting but that's cool. 14:18:18 Hi Dave. Shepazu is indeed Doug. 14:19:35 I'm a IRC greenhorn so I don't know the typical operating behavior, computer or human, in using this mode of communication. 14:20:17 no problem. you type stuff, other people on the channel see it 14:20:26 Yes, no rocket science at all. 14:20:38 its handy for pasting URIs etc sather than reading them aloud on a phone call 14:20:47 also there are two bots on this channel 14:21:04 one, zakim, is an interface to our phone system 9also called Zakim) 14:21:25 the other, rrsagent, is for logging. it allows minutes to be made automatically 14:21:46 Well maybe it IS rocket science. Thanks Chris. 14:22:13 there are a few bits of - well, not rocket science but special commands, especially to the bots to get them to do things. But you will pick those up as you need them 14:22:24 zakim, who is here? 14:22:24 GA_SVGIG()11:00AM has not yet started, ChrisL 14:22:25 On IRC I see DavePorter, Zakim, RRSAgent, ChrisL, shepazu, ed_work 14:22:58 s/9also/(also/ 14:23:20 I just corrected a typo i made, by using the command s/9also/(also/ 14:23:46 rrsagent, here 14:23:46 See http://www.w3.org/2008/07/17-svgig-irc#T14-23-46 14:24:35 Now I asked rrsagent for a pointer to the log it is making 14:24:46 rrsagent, make logs public 14:25:18 and there, i set the access rights so the logs are public. which they should be on this channel by default, but just to be sure 14:55:10 Donald_Doherty has joined #SVGIG 14:56:12 GA_SVGIG()11:00AM has now started 14:56:19 +Don_Doherty 14:57:36 + +1.425.865.aaaa 14:58:33 Rob_Russell has joined #svgig 15:00:11 +BenoitB 15:00:32 Zakim, call shepazu 15:00:32 ok, shepazu; the call is being made 15:00:34 + +1.734.272.aabb 15:00:34 +Shepazu 15:00:42 Christophe has joined #svgig 15:00:58 bbezaire has joined #svgig 15:01:25 zakim, code?

Yes. Publish!! 15:29:10 I think publishing this would be a great idea 15:29:21 shepazu: we have an opportunity to publish this at W3C, legal is drawing up a copyright assignment 15:29:43 would this group agree to the publication? 15:29:43 adding links to examples would be helpful 15:30:15 Christophe_S has joined #svgig 15:30:27 ddailey: we could make the examples live, since it will be a web document 15:30:57 Rob_Russell: making it live means maintenence 15:32:10 Christophe_S has left #svgig 15:32:10 Christophe_S has joined #svgig 15:33:30 DavePorter: this looks terrific, but I have mild reservation about highlighting only one of many publications and resources 15:33:34 Resolution: pending approval by everyone on the SVG IG list, we will publish this book as a W3C note 15:33:55 Topic: SVG Community Site 15:35:33 What about reusing your examples David? (copyright, credits?) 15:36:08 shepazu: this is only one of many resources, and we can link to all of them 15:37:00 ... on either the SVG IG page, or the SVG community site 15:38:15 Bruce_: what about reuse of the examples? 15:38:26 ddailey: up to w3c license 15:38:53 shepazu: that's a good use case, and I'll press that with Legal 15:39:50 codedread: we'd like to build upon the community sites and svg sites out there 15:40:15 ... Rob_Russell is working on a drupal installation 15:42:52 shepazu: svg.org is owned by someone else 15:42:54 ... rather not use that domain name 15:43:11 codedread: please let Rob_Russell or myself know if you want to help 15:45:27 DS describes the basic layout of SVG.org 15:46:13 Rob_Russell: I think Drupal can do all of that, with module 15:46:14 As long as a proposed SVG community site comes up high in the response off a Google search, doesn't really matter much what domain it is or what it's called. IMO. Also, would be cool to have a more graphical-oriented interface, if that's not too risky to suggest. 15:47:53 shepazu: samples, howtos, etc. 15:48:08 web software should have elements of: blog, article publishing, wiki, possibility of mailing list 15:48:37 Rob_Russell: having it live svg has some costs, where IE doesn't render SVG 15:48:47 ... so we should have some fallback 15:49:21 Have you seen w3schools.com, the code-exampleapproach where you've got a "source window" paired with a "result window" and you can get in there and edit the source, click "try it" or something and the result window changes. 15:49:33 codedread: we need to let non-SVG browser users see some of the content 15:49:50 That's a very cool open ended approach to demonstrating code examples. 15:50:36 Rob_Russell: header images and such for tutorials should have png fallbacks 15:50:56 Isn't this what Wikipedia is doing? SVG if available, PNG as fallback 15:51:55 Rob_Russell: having progressive enhancement over time is best 15:53:05 wikipedia shows pngs in pages but allow you to get the source svg if you want 15:53:17 Example: http://w3schools.com/css/tryit.asp?filename=trycss_background-repeat_no-repeat 15:53:24 It might also be fun to have "portal" or something of the sort into which people can go easily to see cool examples running SMIL and filters and so forth
