Issue-2057?
10:50:09 [trackbot]
ISSUE-2057 -- text-align incompatible with CSS -- OPEN
10:50:09 [trackbot]
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/track/issues/2057
10:50:27 [ChrisL]
ED: There is an action pending review
10:52:16 [ChrisL]
CL: If a property has different v alue sets in different specifications (eg in CSS1 and CSS2) then clearly there are unsupported values
10:53:22 [ChrisL]
DS: UA can be conforming if it does these values, but content is not conforming vcontent if it has those values. But what the UA did would be unspecified
10:54:12 [ChrisL]
CL: aybe we could finesses 'unsupported' to allow for supersets in general
10:55:48 [ChrisL]
... but need to be careful to constrain superset values, not allow anything
10:57:08 [ChrisL]
ED: No official reply on list to last message
10:57:44 [ChrisL]
DS: So both Chris and I are saying such content would not conform to the specification
10:59:04 [ChrisL]
... spec was changed to say "not supported by the user agent" so puts it on UA not spec.
11:00:10 [ChrisL]
CL: So if it is supported then it does not have to be ignored
11:00:52 [ChrisL]
CL: I didn't suggest exact wording, but to ask first if that would satisfy
11:01:20 [ChrisL]
ACTION: Chris discuss ISSUE-2057 with Fantasai
11:01:20 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-2275 - Discuss ISSUE-2057 with Fantasai [on Chris Lilley - due 2008-10-14].
11:02:30 [ChrisL]
DS; Second part is solved by reintroduction of direction etc
11:02:43 [ChrisL]
DS: Third part was clarified by 'not in Tiny'
11:04:30 [ChrisL]
CL: So no response to dougs eail of 18 Sept?
11:04:57 [ChrisL]
DS: She contacted me on IRC. Asked that she follow up in email, for tracking. Not done so yet
11:05:13 [ChrisL]
... on IRC she was not satisfied
11:05:31 [ChrisL]
.. on the first issue. Others were not mentioned
11:05:41 [ChrisL]
CL; What did she say exactly?
11:05:48 [ChrisL]
DS: Will look in IRC logs

Topic; ISSUE-2058
11:06:28 [ChrisL]
ISSUE-2058?
11:06:28 [trackbot]
ISSUE-2058 -- Lack of BIDI 'direction' -- RAISED
11:06:28 [trackbot]
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/track/issues/2058
11:07:05 [ChrisL]
ED; Fantasai says direction needs unicode-bidi as well, which we added
11:10:12 [ChrisL]
ACTION: Chris to respond to Fantasia on ISSUE-2058 saying we added direction, unicode-bidi and a test
11:10:12 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-2276 - Respond to Fantasia on ISSUE-2058 saying we added direction, unicode-bidi and a test [on Chris Lilley - due 2008-10-14].
11:11:08 [ed]
http://dev.w3.org/SVG/profiles/1.2T/test/svg/text-align-202-t.svg
11:11:13 [ChrisL]
ED; Shoudl the other alignment test have unicode-bidi?
11:11:23 [ChrisL]
CL: Its not ipening an embedding context
11:12:52 [ChrisL]
CL; Should not have been added in that case, since its a block level and does not set a new embedding level
11:12:58 [ChrisL]
... why does opera fail here?
11:13:25 [ChrisL]
ED; Because we are not treating start as right, here. In 1.1 the text was wrong
11:13:33 [ChrisL]
CL: We fixed that in an erratum
11:13:46 [ChrisL]
ED: Not updated to impleent that erratum yet
11:14:33 [ChrisL]
CL; Should actually remove direction from text-align-202
11:17:25 [ChrisL]
ED: Check there is no leading witespace, then remove it
11:18:16 [ChrisL]
ACTION: Chris to remove direction from text-align-202 as it uses the initial value and does nothing n this test
11:18:16 [trackbot]

Issue-2061?
11:18:47 [trackbot]
ISSUE-2061 -- play, stop, pause, resume on video -- OPEN
11:18:47 [trackbot]
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/track/issues/2061
11:20:02 [ChrisL]
CL: So he is asking for editorial clarifications and more linkingbetween the two interfaces
11:20:35 [ChrisL]
DS: Wants it to be clearer. no functional changes. Example would be good. Explain how to start, stop, pause, resue. Simple
11:20:40 [ChrisL]
ED: Informative note
11:22:57 [ChrisL]
DS: So we should say yes, we will link these two interfaces and explain them 2 outcomes: one we merge the interfaces, the other that we cross reference between them.
11:24:52 [ChrisL]
CL; Good to have pointed out that SVG does what SMIL does, while HTML5 does the same thing in a different way
11:25:42 [ChrisL]
DS: HTML% interface for this all in one place. It does some things we dont. We do some things they dont/ SMIL interface structure is confusing. PLH was confused and he is an experienced DOM author
11:26:36 [ChrisL]
ED: In SVG 1.1 you can pause and unpause on SVG root element and its named differently. PauseAnimations vs PauseElement
11:26:44 [ChrisL]
DS; Its a timeline
11:27:05 [ChrisL]
... need to add the explanation to the spec
11:29:29 [ChrisL]
CL; Explanation needs to use the term TimeContainer
11:30:11 [ChrisL]
CL: Would existing code change if it moved interfaces?
11:30:16 [ChrisL]
DS: probably
11:30:56 [ChrisL]
ED: EleentTimeControl is available on the SVG root element as well
11:31:09 [ChrisL]
s/Eleen/Elem/
11:31:59 [ChrisL]
DS; The interfaces can't be unified because what would play do on the svg root element. 'play' does not have meaning there
11:32:34 [ChrisL]
CL: Would play mean 'restart'?
11:32:56 [ChrisL]
DS; Not really
11:34:00 [ChrisL]
ED: beginElement is already there as well as pause
11:34:20 [ChrisL]
DS; So if we do the basic fix of linking between the interfaces
11:34:33 [ChrisL]
... then revisit in the larger picture
11:35:25 [ChrisL]
CL; Sugest an excampl and rtext saying 'to pause a video do this ... to start a video when a button is pressed do like this example"
11:37:43 [ChrisL]
ACTION: Doug to clarify the spec - link SVGTimedElement and SMIL::ElenentTimeControl and checkthat PLH is satisfied
11:37:43 [trackbot]

ISSUE-2062 -- foreignObject content and referenced resource -- RAISED
11:39:08 [trackbot]
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/track/issues/2062
11:39:59 [ChrisL]
ED: xlink:href reference restrictions are not listed
11:41:38 [ChrisL]
CL: So any reference restrictions should be mentioned. Simplest to restrict to a different doc, not the same one.
11:42:30 [ChrisL]
CL: Fragments or not?
11:42:42 [ChrisL]
ED: Like linking to an ID?
11:43:02 [ChrisL]
DS; Maybe covered in CDF
11:45:11 [ChrisL]
CL: Useful to display the whole document and allow moving to a given point, so we dont want to dissalow fragments
11:45:19 [ChrisL]
ED: Agreed, allow fragments
11:45:37 [ed]
http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGMobile12/linking.html#ReferenceRestrictions
11:47:39 [ChrisL]
CL: Looking at http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGMobile12/linking.html#ReferenceRestrictions
11:47:50 [ChrisL]
it has five things labelled A... E
11:48:09 [ChrisL]
A is not allowed. B is allowed. C we justsaid was not allowed
11:48:47 [ChrisL]
... C is covered by th e animation element
11:49:13 [ChrisL]
D is allowed
11:49:25 [ChrisL]
E is allowed too
11:51:04 [ChrisL]
foreignObject is in that table and says yes everywhere
11:51:43 [ChrisL]
ACTION: Chris to update table of ref restrictions in linking.thml to make foreignObject do what these minutes say
11:51:43 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-2279 - Update table of ref restrictions in linking.thml to make foreignObject do what these minutes say [on Chris Lilley - due 2008-10-14].
11:51:50 [shepazu]
shepazu has joined #svg
11:52:41 [ChrisL]
he says we don't mention displaying the contents
11:53:16 [ChrisL]
We say "The rendered content of a foreignObject must be treated as atomic from the point of view of SVG compositing and transformation, as if it was a single replaced element."
11:53:35 [ChrisL]
we dont say it should be rendered but we say what to do with the rendered result
11:54:42 [ChrisL]
Suggest "If the foreign format is supported by the UA and can be rendered, then it shoudl be rendered into the viewport defined by the element" before the sentence just quoted
11:56:07 [ChrisL]
CL; Suggest moving the last three paras of 19.2 into 19.2.1
11:56:19 [ChrisL]
ED: Yes
11:56:47 [ChrisL]

ED: Need to continue on this issue next time
11:57:41 [ChrisL]
DS; ooks like we need an extra or longe rtelcon
11:59:05 [ChrisL]
... we need resolutions and agreement quickly
12:05:03 [ChrisL]
(brief discussion of ISSUE-2076)
12:05:44 [ChrisL]
DS: Extra-long telcon toorrow?
12:05:46 [ChrisL]

ed_work: I'm adding a bunch now, his is one of them
13:36:13 [ed_work]
...and did you check your account balance to see if Brookstreet charged you for my room?
13:37:06 [ed_work]
it wasn't on either of my creditcards, but I didn't check it carefully enough that morning
13:39:51 [shepazu]
ed_work: I'll look... what can we do about it if they did make the mistake?
13:40:15 [shepazu]
should we get them to change the charge, or settle it between us?
13:57:33 [shepazu]
ed_work: I added julien's comment
13:57:44 [ed_work]
i don't know which is easier, what do you think?
13:58:25 [shepazu]
ed_work: I am not seeing the charge from brookstreet, but I'm also not seeing it from the bill I paid either, so they may not have processed it yet

ah, ok...maybe by changing the relaxng
15:29:12 [ed_work]
