CSS WG likes use cases 15:18:19 ... if you like paginated view and you have a use case for it then it would be very good to hear about it on the list 15:18:41 mgylling: it would help to point IG to threads when they appear. 15:18:47 astearns: will do. 15:19:06 mgylling: PGT not actively pursued at IDPF at this time 15:19:18 ... awaiting CSS improvements 15:19:34 ... doesn't make sense to start this on the side 15:19:41 +??P8 15:19:55 Luc has joined #dpub 15:19:56 ... question: how much is already in CSS? 15:19:56 + +1.617.640.aabb 15:20:09 Sorry to be late 15:20:09 dauwhe: there are pieces that are not present yet. 15:20:16 ... GCPM 4 draft should fill them 15:20:39 ... some questions about paginated view in general. 15:20:53 ... not sure how much CSS WG has discussed this 15:21:12 ... not clear if it should be done more fundamentally / higher up at W3 15:21:16 ... W3C 15:21:39 ... can have conversations with CSS WG meeting. 15:22:06 ivan: little bit uncertain about having tag is more interested in low-level architecture issues. 15:22:10 q+ 15:22:17 ... sceptical if they're interested. 15:22:37 ... would imagine some sort of a document this group should produce on paginated views in general (good arguments etc) 15:22:47 ... get a discussion on the advisory forum 15:22:54 ... to discuss this high-level issue with other members 15:23:12 ... probably too late for tpac plenary 15:23:25 ... but that would be a place for a short presentation 15:23:35 q+ 15:23:43 ... some sweet&short document on the importance & challenge of paginated view 15:23:52 ack astearns 15:23:57 ... have some place where we can start the discussion 15:24:15 astearns: tag might be interested in access to the results of the paginated view. 15:24:22 ... results from Opera 15:24:29 ... you have no way of telling which content lands on which page 15:24:45 ... not useful for our purposes when you don't know where e.g. footnotes landed. 15:24:55 ack brady_duga 15:25:21 brady_duga: that's what I brought up at last years tpac 15:25:38 mgylling: there's a fundamental spec missing? 15:25:43 ivan: little bit more general 15:25:49 ... not just a spec but a "view of the world" 15:25:54 spec so far: http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-overflow/#paginated-overflow (empty section with three issues) :) 15:25:57 ... it might affect several specs 15:26:19 ... currently fundamental belief: everything on the web should be done by scrollable view 15:26:26 ... this would need to be challenged 15:26:35 q+ 15:26:42 dauwhe: second that. 15:26:53 ivan: what can we do? 15:27:09 dauwhe: talk to Peter Lance (?) if there's any tag interest in that. 15:27:21 s/Lance/Linss/ 15:27:21 s/Lance(?)/Linss/ 15:27:26 ack tzviya 15:27:33 mgylling: see also link from astearns 15:27:52 tzviya: what we came on with epub/edupub -- content that some people called "card" or "page" 15:28:05 ... fundamentally a display problem 15:28:44 q+ 15:28:47 ... would probably have fit before
was designed [??? not sure if I caught that right] 15:29:08 astearns: as a developer, I look at massive change of bringing in pagination to browsers 15:29:19 s/astearns/???/ 15:29:32 s/astearns/brady_duga/ 15:29:36 ... will take years, probably not to every browser on all devices 15:29:49 ... as a developer I don't know if I will be able to change to it ever. 15:30:00 ... basically the risk of revolutionary change 15:30:07 ... would be more in favor of evolutionary change 15:30:34 dauwhe: paginated view certainly exist in ebook readers 15:30:48 ... publishers want to be able to say "put this at the top/bottom of the page" 15:30:54 q+ 15:30:57 ... so I'm not sure what small steps can get us to statements like that 15:31:14 brady_duga: I'm not sure either but I'm sure that if we only describe giant steps, it is doomed. 15:31:57 ... if a few platforms support, then it would take too much effort away from platforms that don't have such features 15:32:12 ???: would be in favor of small steps. 15:32:21 s/???/astearns/ 15:32:27 ... using JS to break into pages. Or use CSS regions. 15:32:37 ... but CSS was a step too far. 15:33:03 s/CSS/CSS-Regions 15:33:28 ack Luc 15:33:30 ... if you can suggest features that would help move in small steps, I'd love to hear them, I just don't know them 15:33:58 Luc: to add, even in a scrollable window, if we consider the web display is always scrollable, as a publisher we need some information. 15:34:22 ... we need that information in scrollable,e.g, footnotes/notes 15:35:32 ... in long HTML documents, we need to display more information in the context of the reader, even in scrollable 15:35:49 ... need to make running heads and footnotes available 15:36:10 ... if I say the web is scrollable only, what do I need to make contextual information available to the reader? 15:36:58 ack ivan 15:36:59 dauwhe: to some degree, you'd have the viewport. But then it might end up as a fixed position in the viewport. 15:37:41 ivan: we should be careful not to run ahead. I fully understand Brady's warning. We've had browser devs fighting over this before -- feature coming to one browser but not the other. 15:37:59 ... we still need a document what we would need in an ideal world. 15:38:09 ... then we can discuss where to make compromises to get it rolling 15:38:30 ... I currently don't know where to go to get information on this. 15:38:36 mgylling: a chapter of latinrec? 15:38:55 ivan: No. A separate document fits better. 15:39:00 dauwhe: +1 15:39:37 mgylling: should we gather common resources to try to collect this document and make this a target for fall? 15:39:47 :) 15:40:01 dauwhe: I volunteer.
