Publishing WG Telco, 2018-04-23: Offlining, Infoset

See minutes online for a more detailed record of the discussions.

Offlining

Our current draft does not go into detail about offlining WP. The call focused on some of the scenarios in which offlining is most valuable and desired. From there, the conversations expanded to the other concerns around offline-enhanced experiences,  such as versioning, identification, updating, and distribution. The group discussed existing browser-based storage systems but is concerned about persistence, risk of browser or (unintentional) user storage “clearing,” as well as quotas. Issues will be pulled from the conversation and added to GitHub.

Infoset

Luc Audrain has reviewed the existing info set and asked the group whether it is sufficient or if it needs to reflect all of the issues raised by Hadrien Gardeur in his comparison to EPUB. We concluded that we need to assess the functionality of the issues raised and ensure that they are addressed by WP. These functionalities might not be a part of the Infoset.
