Self-explanatory. 14:38:53 zakim, unmute yeliz 14:38:53 yeliz should no longer be muted 14:39:02 -> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-bpwg/2009Jan/0038.html Alan's email 14:39:03 -> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-bpwg/2009Jan/0038.html Alan's update 14:39:08 zakim, mute yeliz 14:39:08 yeliz should now be muted 14:39:08 jo: Yeliz, something to add? 14:39:13 yeliz: nothing to add, no. 14:39:21 Topic: MWABP aka BP2 14:39:38 adam: Main thing I've done is to go through the doc and integrate your comments jo. 14:39:57 ... In terms of editorial comments, I'm fine. 14:40:20 ... In terms of broader comments, this translates into actions to investigate your points. 14:40:31 ... Maybe we can raise issues on each of them 14:40:45 jo: Why don't we raise issues, and see how to action them? 14:40:54 adam: OK, I'll do it by the end of the week. 14:41:44 ... section 3.2.1 is asking for more advice on security. 14:42:06 ... I'd appreciate if we could get the advice of the Team, and in particular security folks. 14:42:48 hope security folks take a good hard long look at this... is worrisome 14:42:52 The practice seems to provide authentication, but no confidentiality, nor integrity. (at first sight). 14:43:15 action: daoust to contact WSC team (Thomas) to obtain a view on the secure hash mechanism discussed under 3.2.1 in BP2 14:43:15 Created ACTION-899 - Contact WSC team (Thomas) to obtain a view on the secure hash mechanism discussed under 3.2.1 in BP2 [on François Daoust - due 2009-01-27]. 14:43:22 jo: we should probably go back to Thomas and folks of WSC WG. 14:43:30 francois: OK. Will do that. 14:43:47 jo: Anything else on BP2? 14:44:01 q+ 14:44:05 ack f 14:44:34 I will check if our browser security team has anything particular to provide for feedback for 899 14:45:39 francois: Dan mentioned the idea that we could have an editorial meeting on Monday 2 Feb 2009 afternoon in London on MWABP. I'll probably be there. 14:45:44 jo: OK, good idea. 14:45:48 ACTION-896? 14:45:48 ACTION-896 -- François Daoust to stimulate discussion on the SHOULD NOT question ref mobile heuristics -- due 2009-01-20 -- OPEN 14:45:48 http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/track/actions/896 14:45:52 Topic: CT issues 14:45:57 -> http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/track/actions/896 ACTION-896 14:47:01 francois: I can just apologize. I haven't done my action. Sean replied. 14:47:54 SeanP: I replied with a list of exceptions to the rule. I mentioned the possibility for users to choose for the transcoder to transcode responses even in that case. 14:48:04 but isn't the CT proxy on the network and thus would catch requests to other non-mobile sites? 14:48:30 ... One example: a Web page that links to non-mobile Web pages, users may want to see the non-mobile pages transformed. 14:49:09 -> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-bpwg-ct/2009Jan/0031.html Sean's proposal on interfering with mobile sites 14:49:51 jo: I think we should raise this kind of stuff as real issues 14:49:57 I answered in http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-bpwg/2009Jan/0021.html - basically this seems to fall into the scheme of users specifying they want a transformed experience. 14:51:17 q+ 14:51:27 ACTION: jo to raise issues on inconclusive CT threads once the new draft of CT is prepared 14:51:27 Created ACTION-900 - Raise issues on inconclusive CT threads once the new draft of CT is prepared [on Jo Rabin - due 2009-01-27]. 14:52:31 q+ to ask about CT-on-network 14:52:40 ack f 14:52:57 francois: wonder if we can have a quick overview of points of divergence. My understanding is that the only remaining one is this case where users may want CT-proxies to transform mobile Web pages. Am I missing something? 14:53:07 SeanP: it sounds to be the case. 14:53:39 ... Eduardo replied. 14:53:59 jo: Could you raise a formal issue on where you think the discussion is, Sean? 14:54:07 q? 14:54:15 ... Threads start to be a little difficult to follow. 14:54:28 action: patterson to raise issue the thread he started on transforming mobile content entitled "RE: [minutes] CT Call 6 january 2009" 14:54:28 Created ACTION-901 - Raise issue the thread he started on transforming mobile content entitled \"RE: [minutes] CT Call 6 january 2009\" [on Sean Patterson - due 2009-01-27]. 14:55:00 -> http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/track/issues/new Issue creator 14:55:01 q? 14:55:06 ack me 14:55:08 dom, you wanted to ask about CT-on-network 14:55:49 dom: I was a bit curious about your point Sean on non-mobile pages linked from mobile pages. Wouldn't the CT-proxy catch the following request and behave accordingly? 14:57:17 -Jeff 14:57:43 SeanP: You may either look at the request for clues or at the response for clues. That's kind of what I had in mind. For CT-proxies that work in linked mode, a page that is not transformed doesn't go through the proxy anymore, and the non-mobile page cannot be transformed. 14:57:53 dom: is linked-mode the only or default mode? 14:58:03 SeanP: we have both types of deployment. 14:58:37 dom: Well, in that case, we could enforce the rule on deployments that behave as real proxies, not in the linked-mode case. 14:59:02 s/we could enforce/we could at least/ 14:59:04 SeanP: ok, there may still be the problem with the toolbar problem. 14:59:10 s/least/least enforce/ 14:59:20 dom: I think that's a separate discussion. 14:59:27 jo: Something else? 14:59:27 s/not in the linked-mode case/if impossible in the linked-mode case/ 14:59:31 zakim, mute me 14:59:31 dom should now be muted 14:59:40 Topic: CT - X- HTTP Headers 14:59:54 EdC: I haven't completed the action entirely. First results on the mailing-list. 15:00:29 ... The interesting thing is that I haven't found anything truly concrete on X- header fields, nor anything on deprecation of fields 15:00:51 ... except in RFC3864. 15:01:03 -> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-bpwg/2009Jan/0052.html EdC's first results 15:01:21 EdC: I found an extensive discussion on IETF lists. 15:01:27 achuter has joined #bpwg 15:01:34 ... but could not really determine the outcome of that. 15:01:56 ... I intend to send a mail to IETF. 15:02:15 ... In the meantime, if anyone has any pointer to provide, I'm interested! 15:02:39 jo: I thought X- header fields were governed by a separate RFC, but this may actually be a legend. 15:02:42 ack me 15:02:46 +achuter 15:02:53 zakim, mute me 15:02:53 dom should now be muted 15:03:01 dom: I'll see if I can find something. 15:03:05 zakim, mute me 15:03:05 achuter should now be muted 15:03:05 q+ 15:03:10 ack f 15:04:05 RFC 2169 ? 15:04:46 francois: just to remind I asked for advice within W3C. No mention to RFC on X- header fields, but I was told one cannot register X- fields. 15:04:57 jo: OK, right, let's continue the search. 15:05:14 Topic: HTTPS Link Re Writing 15:05:40 jo: Rob and Tom are active participants in that discussion and neither are on the call today. 15:06:14 ... What's been much on my mind here, is that we were asked to review the OPEC draft. 15:06:20 s/OPEC/OPES 15:06:56 -> http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3238 OPES 15:07:29 jo: We need to keep that in mind, and make sure we're compliant with it. 15:07:58 francois: didn't we review the spec before? 15:08:48 jo: yes, but not really with HTTPS in mind 15:08:55 q+ 15:09:25 francois: what I recall is that, in short, agreement from both ends was better, but that agreement from one end was enough. 15:09:34 RFC 822 has the stuff about X- headers, AFAICT: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc822/#z26 "extension-field = 15:09:49 jo: yes, but I think there was a need to have an explicit agreement. 15:09:57 -> http://www.rfc-editor.org/cgi-bin/rfcsearch.pl rfc search 15:09:59 (thus an X- header cannot be considered as a formal MIME header) 15:10:06 enter "OPES" to find all references 15:10:30 ack me 15:10:43 jo: Do you want to comment on X- header fields? 15:11:12 dom: yes. Apparently, the grammar defined in RFC822 forbids header fields that start with "X-" headers. 15:11:20 zakim, mute me 15:11:20 dom should now be muted 15:11:27 jo: OK. Thanks for the pointer, dom. 15:11:41 jo: Back to HTTPS links rewriting. 15:12:59 ... any idea to move forward? 15:14:01 francois: I'd love to see the issue rationalized. The discussion covers many aspects. Hard to focus, follow and resolve. 15:14:14 SeanP: Quick question: how did OPES come into the discussion? 15:14:25 action: jo to summarise current discussions on https link re writing 15:14:25 Created ACTION-902 - Summarise current discussions on https link re writing [on Jo Rabin - due 2009-01-27]. 15:14:35 jo: we received a last call from the IAB asking us to review the specification. 15:15:04 IAB Said: In its preview and review of OPES work, the IAB expressed its concerns about privacy, control, monitoring, and accountability of such services in RFC 3238 [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3238 ]. 15:15:09 There is a dozen RFC related to OPES at http://tools.ietf.org/wg/opes ! 15:15:35 jo: Anything else on HTTPS links rewriting? 15:15:36 q+ 15:15:42 ack SeanP 15:15:50 ack francois 15:17:25 francois: just wanted to raise the fact that it's not only HTTPS links rewriting. It's HTTPS and links rewriting, combined or not. 15:17:28 zakim, unmute me 15:17:28 achuter should no longer be muted 15:17:49 jo: OK. And I remember Eduardo posted a thorough analysis on that. Thanks! 15:17:58 q+ 15:18:00 Topic: Feedback to Web Apps WG on Widget Spec 15:18:02 zakim, mute me 15:18:02 achuter should now be muted 15:18:06 jo: Bruce is not on the call. 15:18:12 ... Other business? 15:18:25 zakim, unmute me 15:18:25 achuter should no longer be muted 15:18:26 -jo 15:18:26 ...
