<smaug> no, in 30 mins :)

<smaug> Patrick_H_Lauke: and FYI, https://issues.chromium.org/issues/457794569#comment17

yeah sorry, i'm just getting the channel ready so i don't rush around like a headless chicken on the hour

Recap from TPAC

Patrick: quick overview of what happened at TPAC. didn't tackle any meaty topics, as it was only Olli and myself in attendance. one thing we were hoping to talk about in person was how to thinslice WPTs to indicate which ones are for level 3 and which ones are future/level 4

Rob: I think we should go ahead with meta tagging the tests to specify which version

Olli: I don't think there's too many of those. the directional touch-action ones

Olli: one thing that unfortunately didn't happen for our meeting was that Mike Smith(tm) didn't make it to our meeting. as UI events was discussed at webapps, and he intended to meet with us to discuss further.

ACTION: Patrick to contact Mike Smith to find out more details about the plans for UI events

Recharter info

Patrick: as far as PLH concerned, no problem with the recharter. it's being viewed/discussed

Patrick: there was a comment from design review on charter wording concerning gestures w3ctag/design-reviews#1165 (comment)

Next steps for WPTs

Patrick: so I think next step is if we CAN go ahead and tag the tests for level 4 to differentiate them from level 3, that'd be great. Rob, as you mentioned it, would you be able to do this and report back next time?

Rob: i think it's a meta tag. you can add a "help" type link to tests to specify which spec they relate to

Olli: just looking at other cases where help is used...just href...

<flackr> <link rel="help" href="spec-url">

<smaug> Something like https://searchfox.org/firefox-main/source/testing/web-platform/mozilla/tests/fetch/api/redirect/redirect-referrer.https.html#7

ACTION: Rob to look at adding help/meta to WPTs to disambiguate level 3 and level 4 ones

<smaug> web-platform-tests/interop#1123

Olli: related to the testing, there's the interop proposal ^

Patrick: thank you all for this short meeting. see you next time in 2 weeks
