Topic: UA Test Suite results
20:04:59 [Vlad]
See http://w3c-test.org/framework/results/woff-ua/ for the latest updates
20:05:12 [ChrisL]
291 of 291 required tests meet CR exit criteria.
20:05:12 [ChrisL]
CR exit criteria have been met.
20:05:28 [ChrisL]
I added results from Chrome 19 today
20:05:49 [ChrisL]
also the latest Opera beta (no change unfortunately)
20:05:50 [Zakim]
+jfkthame
20:06:39 [ChrisL]
Vlad: first order of business is updated UA results
20:07:14 [ChrisL]
Raph: the chromium bug strictly check table padding
20:08:13 [ChrisL]
Vlad: we have met the CR exit criteria
20:09:06 [ChrisL]
ChrisL; added Chrome 19 and Opera 12 beta rwsults, plus Microsoft sent in the IE10/Win8 results
20:10:43 [ChrisL]
ChrisL: the advantage of making no changes is we avoid another last call
20:11:15 [ChrisL]
Vlad: maybe we can raise the issue with the OT spec folks to get 'highly recommended' changed to 'mist' in line with the implementations
20:11:27 [ChrisL]
sergeym: agree
20:11:40 [ChrisL]
Vlad: most impls expect that anyway
20:12:05 [ChrisL]
... some will reject a font that has no last-table padding
20:12:24 [ChrisL]
tal: who knows what is in the Apple sfnt parser?
20:12:32 [ChrisL]
(no-one)
20:13:06 [ChrisL]

20:13:07 [ChrisL]
This Chromium bug tracks the recent update to OTS to make it fully comply with the W3C spec for strictly checking table padding.
20:13:07 [ChrisL]
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=109813
20:13:07 [ChrisL]
I believe this make the implementation comply with the spec, so hopefully there are no further issues.

20:13:34 [ChrisL]
Vlad (explains email list)
20:15:22 [ChrisL]
ChrisL: so this gives a more strict path for the WOFF path
20:15:26 [ChrisL]
Raph: yes

20:16:51 [ChrisL]
Raph: could revisit if OT spec changes
20:17:15 [ChrisL]
(discussion on how many OT fonts in the wild miss trailing padding)
20:17:31 [ChrisL]
Raph: older fonts more likely to be brioken
20:18:13 [ChrisL]
jfkthame: pathc is identical to one i did for Firefox, to make it pass the same test case.
20:18:41 [ChrisL]
jfkthame: so if that goes into OTS upstream we will inherit it
20:19:03 [ChrisL]
Raph: can unblock WOFF and make OT more strict later
20:19:29 [ChrisL]
jfkthame: would still be slow to reject as known fonts that would break. Stricter spec still a good thing longer term
20:20:19 [ChrisL]
Resolved: move WOFF 1.0 to Proposed Recommendation
20:20:25 [ChrisL]
rrsagent, here

topic: review proposed draft charter
20:20:59 [ChrisL]
http://www.w3.org/2012/06/WebFonts/draft-charter.html
20:21:27 [ChrisL]
"This proposed charter adds the evaluation of, and (if favourable) the standardisation of, this new method or some variation on it, as a deliverable of the existing WebFonts Working Group. "
20:21:38 [ChrisL]
jfkthame: at first glance this looks reasonable
20:21:51 [ChrisL]
Vlad: (explains original and new draft charters)
20:23:23 [ChrisL]
Raph: milestones still show a WOFF 2.0
20:23:33 [ChrisL]
... so standardisation is in scope
20:23:41 [ChrisL]
... totally fine with that change
20:24:04 [ChrisL]
... hope more people do their own tests, like CPU usage on mobile
20:24:53 [ChrisL]
.. now on Android team btw, which does not imply any problem with the Fonts group - but more focus on fonts for mobile
20:25:44 [ChrisL]
... in favour of careful evaluation and consideration of alternatives. Not set in stone. Better alternatives, or unforseen problems, should be addressed
20:26:05 [ChrisL]
Vlad: still Google's rep to this WG?
20:26:08 [ChrisL]
Raph: yes
20:26:50 [ChrisL]
... definitely have time allocation for W3C standards work
20:27:28 [ChrisL]
Vlad; so we think the charter is good, then we can go forward to AC review
20:28:36 [ChrisL]
ChrisL: (explains process)
20:30:02 [ChrisL]
Vlad: ensure we get adequate responses over summer, and all set for TPAC
20:30:39 [ChrisL]
sylvaing: any f2f vewfore tpac?

20:33:03 [ChrisL]
ChrisL: when will this patch start showing up in Chrome and Safari?
20:33:28 [ChrisL]
Raph: likey to ship in Chroime within 12 weeks, and canary version in 6 weeks.
20:33:36 [ChrisL]
... safari I don't know
20:33:49 [ChrisL]
... and does not use OTS AFAIK
20:34:16 [ChrisL]
.... use own code for that. OTS is a separate repo
20:35:48 [ChrisL]
ChrisL: unfortunate that Opera not present, believe they use it also
20:36:03 [ChrisL]
Raph: should show up in nightlies in next day or two
20:36:14 [ChrisL]
... Tab could say more
20:37:04 [ChrisL]
ChrisL: the IE10 needs a Win8 preview?
20:37:17 [ChrisL]
sylvaing: can run in a VM
20:37:43 [ChrisL]
Vlad: Raph we are on IRC as well as on the phone
