We are acknowledging it isn't common, but we need to cover it in the spec 00:05:07 ... Matt, summary? 00:05:28 mgarrish: Not much to say, but the spec is a little wordy/redundant 00:05:41 ... I suggest shortening, but overall am happy 00:06:08 dlazin has joined #epub 00:06:11 dauwhe: Some comment about making the duration a 'should', but I am against that 00:06:31 mgarrish: agreed. I am not even sure how common TTS is 00:06:33 q+ 00:07:02 dauwhe: And you won't have MO if you are relying on TTS anyway 00:07:02 ack we 00:07:26 wendyreid: Using MO for TTS is pretty much overkill 00:07:53 q? 00:07:54 ... European A11y act requires TTS in RSes, so TTS will be more common 00:08:19 +q 00:08:20 zheng_xu__ has joined #epub 00:08:28 ack mur 00:08:32 mgarrish: We did TTS previously, but not as MO. Seems like this is more theoretical than anything. Happy to leave as is 00:08:37 present+ 00:09:08 MURATA: DAISY in Japan has MO always, but it is pre-recorded 00:09:18 q? 00:09:24 dauwhe: We will clean up the PR and close the issue 00:09:54 Proposed: Merge PR 2027 after wording is confirmed, and close issue 2007 00:09:56 +1 00:09:57 +1 00:09:57 +1 00:09:57 +1 00:10:00 +1 00:10:01 +1 00:10:02 +1 00:10:02 +1 00:10:05 RESOLVED: Merge PR 2027 after wording is confirmed, and close issue 2007 00:10:06 +1 00:10:09 present+ 00:10:10 +1 00:10:29 https://github.com/w3c/epub-specs/issues/2023 00:10:52 dauwhe: Major rewrite of OCF to clarify URLs 00:11:22 ... Partly to help clarify where relative URLs could reach (that is, not out of the package) 00:12:16 ... First issue is to clarify in simple language what is legal now 00:12:24 q+ 00:12:32 ... I am in favor of clarifying 00:12:33 ack dl 00:12:44 dlazin: Not sure what Ivan wants 00:13:04 ... Is he asking for an example? Or something else? 00:13:22 q+ 00:13:38 dauwhe: I think an example of two explaining why these things are bad makes sense 00:13:41 +q 00:13:45 ack mg 00:14:15 mgarrish: I think Ivan wants some plain English explaining what all this means without having to understand the processing model 00:14:48 dauwhe: Maybe just "you can't use URLs like this and that", etc 00:15:01 ack mur 00:15:25 MURATA: I am concerned between discrepancies our spec and whatwg 00:15:46 ... Which could change any time 00:15:48 q+ 00:15:59 ack mg 00:16:01 dauwhe: This is a non-normative section 00:16:16 MURATA: I am concerned with the entire section. Maybe a new issue is needed? 00:16:44 mgarrish: This is epub specific to handle the case of the virtual container 00:16:49 q+ 00:16:52 ack du 00:16:57 scribe+ 00:17:15 duga: I think when we were looking at this, I don't think we're changing anything the URL spec says 00:17:36 ... we're putting some constraints on behaviours of types of URLs you can use as base 00:17:43 ... it is still worth you going through it 00:17:47 q? 00:18:26 dauwhe: It looks messy because it is a hard problem and it very tricky to fully explain (using formal language) 00:18:51 ... This is our best attempt to use the URL spec language and concepts to define what we want 00:19:04 ... But please do review and file issues 00:19:22 q? 00:19:28 MURATA: And this issue would and non-normative language? 00:19:31 dauwhe: Yes 00:19:34 wendyreid: Yes 00:20:10 dauwhe: Not really ready to have a resolution - someone needs to add language 00:20:49 MURATA: This is not the first time I have encountered this problem, and specifying it is very difficult 00:20:55 https://github.com/w3c/epub-specs/issues/2024 00:21:17 dauwhe: Our other issue is similar. When we did this we lost a requirement that there be a resource at the end of the path 00:21:37 ... originally we had 1. not leak and 2. must exist 00:21:41 https://github.com/w3c/epub-specs/pull/2028 00:22:01 ... We lost part 2. We should put it back. There is already a PR 00:22:18 mgarrish: We just need to put the existence text back 00:22:28 dauwhe: Yes, and it sounds like the PR does just that 00:22:42 ... I am in favor of merging 00:22:47 q+ 00:22:51 ack dl 00:23:17 dlazin: I don't know if it follows that there must always be a thing that is referenced 00:23:57 q+ 00:23:57 ... For instance a book on how to write epub that shows errors (eg this is what it looks like when a resource is missing) 00:24:24 ... The cases are rare, but I can imagine some 00:24:35 q+ 00:24:37 ... and there are plenty of ways to create bad content 00:24:42 ack we 00:25:06 wendyreid: Going with must on this, because nothing stops people from ignoring epubcheck 00:25:08 q+ 00:25:47 ... In general epubcheck is heavily relied on by publishers to tell them of problems 00:26:08 ack mg 00:26:13 ... and this will more often than not help those publishers find problems 00:26:23 mgarrish: I basically agree with wendyreid 00:26:33 ... epubcheck does look for this now 00:26:53 ... There are other things epubcheck will flag 00:27:31 ... This seems like a can of worms to change, and error has worked really well to date 00:27:34 q+ 00:27:44 q- 00:27:46 ack dl 00:28:17 dlazin: Those are persuasive arguments 00:29:34 dlazin: I thought epubcheck gave warnings on shoulds, isn't that good enough? 00:29:43 wendyreid: Errors scare them more 00:30:09 dlazin: I am ok with must, but odd that epubcheck is preflight and a conformance checker 00:30:42 Proposed: Merge PR 2028, close issue 2024 00:30:46 dauwhe: Propose merging 2028 00:30:47 +1 00:30:49 +1 00:30:49 +1 00:30:50 +1 00:30:51 +1 00:30:51 +1 00:30:54 +1 00:30:56 +1 00:31:00 RESOLVED: Merge PR 2028, close issue 2024 00:31:25 dauwhe: AOB? 00:31:53 https://github.com/w3c/epub-specs/issues/2012 00:32:22 shiestyle: FL a11y issue was raised (see issue) 00:32:46 ... MURATA, what do you think? 00:32:53 q+ 00:33:02 MURATA: I do not understand the practical implications 00:33:28 shiestyle: 00:33:40 MURATA: Informational document 00:34:20 MURATA: DAISY 00:34:34 shiestyle: 00:34:40 MURATA: Yes 00:34:44 ack ween 00:34:47 ack wen 00:34:52 MURATA: Will this have any impact on 3.3? 00:34:55 wendyreid: No 00:35:32 ... These are not published, and would only be WG notes, neither on REC track 00:35:54 ... We can add something about image dominated publications (or add more) 00:36:34 ... We have been trying to avoid discussing a single content type, but we can attempt to differentiate between mainly image FL and text based FL 00:37:02 MURATA: I would like to make this more obvious - Image based FL content is not accessible. Period. 00:37:37 wendyreid: We wouldn't really put this into core anyway, it would be part of a11y if we did add it 00:37:53 ... There are a lot of problems, and we really can't standardize yet 00:38:19 q+ 00:38:23 ack dl 00:38:27 dauwhe: Looks like we have a path forward 00:38:56 dlazin: I heard back from MDN today, they have approved our proposals to add publishing related content at MDN 00:39:07 ... Now we just have to write the docs 00:39:21 https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Related 00:39:31 q+ 00:39:37 ... We have an outline for minimum viable, but not time to actually do it now 00:39:46 ack zh 00:39:51 https://github.com/dlazin/mdn-yari/blob/main/kumascript/macros/EPUBRef.ejs 00:39:52 ... but we do have an outline if anyone wants to help 00:40:20 zheng_xu__: In the CG we have a taskforce for MDN, can we assign it to you? 00:40:33 q? 00:40:40 dlazin: Yes, I knew it existed and the TF connected me to the MDN people 00:40:59 zheng_xu__: I will add you to the CG issue 00:41:30 dlazin: I do have the previous drafts 00:41:34 here is the CG issue 00:41:35 https://github.com/w3c/publishingcg/issues/10 00:42:03 dauwhe: The MDN format is weird 00:42:37 Zakim, end meeting 00:42:37 As of this point the attendees have been dauwhe, toshiakikoike, MasakazuKitahara, duga, wendyreid, shiestyle, mgarrish, zheng_xu__, dlazin 00:42:39 RRSAgent, please draft minutes 00:42:39 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2022/03/03-epub-minutes.html Zakim 00:42:42 I am happy to have been of service, dauwhe; please remember to excuse RRSAgent.
