belated regrets from me, sorry. something came up just in the last few minutes (must dash off early to pick up little one from childminder now)
16:04:34 [ArtB]
Regrets+ Patrick_Lauke
16:04:42 [ArtB]
Topic: Agree on agenda
16:04:45 [patrick_h_lauke]
i WAS intending to take part, had it not been for this last second change of plan. sorry
16:04:47 [ArtB]
AB: I posted a draft agenda on February 11 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2014JanMar/0073.html. We have a few regrets so we may need to factor that in for some discussions. Other than that, are there any change requests?
16:05:14 [ArtB]
Topic: adding an informative note re touch events?
16:05:21 [ArtB]
AB: Patrick started this thread on January 31 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2014JanMar/0064.html.
16:05:29 [ArtB]
AB: Rick replied http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2014JanMar/0065.html and I did too, suggesting Patrick create a concrete proposal we can discuss. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2014JanMar/0066.html
16:06:01 [ArtB]
AB: any comments?
16:06:10 [ArtB]
AB: I'll create an action for Patrick
16:06:15 [ArtB]
ACTION: Patrick create a proposal re informative note re PointerEvent and TouchEvent compatibility.
16:06:15 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-69 - Create a proposal re informative note re pointerevent and touchevent compatibility. [on Patrick Lauke - due 2014-02-18].
16:06:47 [smaug]
yup
16:07:00 [ArtB]
Topic: ACTION-68: Proposed text for "contextmenu issue"
16:07:06 [ArtB]
AB: Rick proposed text for Action-68 on January 28; http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2014JanMar/0061.html.
16:07:15 [ArtB]
AB: any comments or can we approve Rick's proposal "as is"?
16:07:31 [ArtB]
JR: works for me
16:07:36 [ArtB]
AB: anyone else?
16:07:55 [ArtB]
MB: looks ok
16:08:52 [ArtB]
RESOLUTION: group agrees with the text Rick proposed re Action-68
16:08:58 [ArtB]
ACTION: Jacob update spec to reflect 11-Feb-2014 discussion of Action-68
16:08:58 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-70 - Update spec to reflect 11-feb-2014 discussion of action-68 [on Jacob Rossi - due 2014-02-18].
16:09:09 [ArtB]
Topic: Exception usage
16:09:14 [ArtB]
AB: Anne raised this issue on February 3; http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2014JanMar/0067.html. Anne recommends the PE spec use the JavaScript built-in RangeError rather than DOMException with a new name of "InvalidPointerId".
16:09:42 [ArtB]
AB: so far, no one has replied. There is a consistency argument here but this change would also presumably break implementations so there is also a cost to consider.
16:10:10 [dfreedm]
dfreedm has joined #pointerevents
16:10:29 [ArtB]
JR: I could be out of date on the latest from DOM and Web IDL
16:10:48 [ArtB]
… I don't have any data re an impact of the proposed change
16:10:56 [ArtB]
… Not sure RangeError is correct
16:11:14 [ArtB]
… If an invalid id is used, not really a range error per se
16:11:24 [ArtB]
… more of a state error
16:11:37 [ArtB]
… I need to think about this some more
16:11:50 [ArtB]
OP: agree we need something other Range
16:12:06 [ArtB]
JR: what do you think about what's in the spec now Olli?
16:12:17 [ArtB]
… do you think that should change?
16:12:40 [ArtB]
OP: if the plan is to not add new DOM Exception and to use builit in we shold consider it
16:13:00 [ArtB]
MB: I don't see any other builtin exceptions that are a good match
16:13:05 [ArtB]
… based on looking at ES spec
16:13:18 [ArtB]
… Think we should reply to Anne
16:13:39 [ArtB]
JR: latest info I saw was from Cameron on Jan 28
16:13:46 [jrossi]
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=21740
16:13:53 [ArtB]
… don't want to move to something just because it is "trendy"
16:14:06 [ArtB]
MB: need to understand what changes are coming
16:14:20 [ArtB]
DS: and we need to understand the level of consensus for the proposed change
16:14:37 [ArtB]
ACTION: Matt reply to Anne's "Exception usage" e-mail of Feb 3
16:14:38 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-71 - Reply to anne's "exception usage" e-mail of feb 3 [on Matt Brubeck - due 2014-02-18].
16:14:51 [ArtB]
MB: I think we need some more data
16:15:12 [mbrubeck]
ECMA-262 defines Error, EvalError, RangeError, ReferenceError, SyntaxError, TypeError and URIError.
16:15:13 [ArtB]
AB: encourage others to followup too
16:15:41 [ArtB]
AB: that's a short list and I agree, not clear better match
16:15:53 [ArtB]
Topic Feedback on pointer events
16:15:58 [ArtB]
AB: Anne submitted 8 additional comments from him and Boris on February 3 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2014JanMar/0069.html.
16:16:09 [ArtB]
AB: there's an implicit Action for everyone to review the comments and reply accordingly. We can discuss some set of the comments now or defer discussion on the list.
16:16:59 [ArtB]
JR: some are easy, along the line of "spec mechanics"
16:17:09 [ArtB]
… #5 appears to just be a typo
16:17:23 [ArtB]
… since there is no default action to be canceled
16:17:36 [ArtB]
… #1, think I just need to add a reference
16:17:50 [ArtB]
MB: #6 is tricky since we don't define default behavior
16:18:00 [ArtB]
… touches on touch-action algorithm
16:18:12 [ArtB]
… we might need to change our language to the proposed form
16:18:40 [ArtB]
JR: my proposal is for me to make changes for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 in a single ED update
16:18:56 [ArtB]
… and I'll send that changeset to the list
16:19:22 [ArtB]
ACTION: Jacob propose changes for 1-5 of Anne's e-mail of Feb 3
16:19:22 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-72 - Propose changes for 1-5 of anne's e-mail of feb 3 [on Jacob Rossi - due 2014-02-18].
16:19:29 [ArtB]
MB: what about the other items?
16:19:33 [ArtB]
JR: discuss on the list
16:19:41 [ArtB]
MB: I can take an action re #6
16:20:06 [ArtB]
… think #7 is a "ship has sailed" deal
16:20:13 [ArtB]
… Need to think more about #8
16:20:36 [ArtB]
OP: not clear about #7 and the devices not tied to a screen
16:20:49 [ArtB]
… not clear its better than Navigator
16:20:57 [ArtB]
JR: agree; I have a device like that
16:21:21 [ArtB]
MB: not sure we can make a change at this point
16:21:39 [ArtB]
ACTION: Matt reply to #6 of Anne's Feb 3 comments
16:21:39 [trackbot]

16:22:34 [ArtB]
MB: not sure what about #8
16:23:16 [ArtB]
JR: we don't define overall dispatch model in PE spec
16:23:29 [ArtB]
… we just describe behavior for each event
16:23:43 [ArtB]
… not sure where we would define what is proposed
16:24:11 [ArtB]

16:25:01 [ArtB]
Topic: Focus/blur?
16:25:13 [ArtB]
AB: Patrick started this thread on February 4 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2014JanMar/0071.html
16:25:13 [ArtB]
AB: any comments?
16:25:44 [ArtB]
OP: think the focus/blur handling should continue to be defined in HTML spec
16:25:59 [ArtB]
… not sure PE spec can say anything useful about this
16:26:03 [ArtB]
JR: agree with that
16:26:36 [ArtB]
ACTION: olli reply to Patrick's Focus/blur? e-mail of Feb 4

16:26:54 [ArtB]
AB: would someone please followup?
16:27:11 [ArtB]
MB: Nick is part of MS Open Tech and he is implementing PE in Gecko
16:27:25 [ArtB]
AV: I think this is just an e-mail seeking clarification
16:27:31 [ArtB]
JR: yes agree
16:27:39 [ArtB]

16:29:48 [ArtB]
AB: I think we are waiting for some colleagues of Jacob
16:29:51 [asir]
who is automated tester?
16:30:15 [ArtB]
JR: I think some internal changes will make this easier and we can expect an update soon
16:30:24 [ArtB]
AB: that would be great
16:31:09 [ArtB]
DS: in case people didn't notice, Opera recently released their Presto tests [to Github]
16:31:40 [ArtB]
… I don't know if they included anything useful for us
16:31:55 [smaug]
asir: that AutomatedTester who just left this channel is from Mozilla, I think
16:32:09 [ArtB]
AB: my recollection is Sangwhan reported they would not backport PE to Presto and would use Blink's impl moving forward
16:32:17 [ArtB]
DS: yes, that might be correct
16:32:22 [asir]
ok
16:32:32 [ArtB]
