Minutes and Resolutions Tokyo F2F Thurs: Page-breaking, GCPM, Image-resolution, Multicol

• Resolved: Add page selector grouping to CSS3 Page as at-risk feature, if Melinda objects make it a note that we will add it in the future.
• Resolved: If page-break-before, page-break-after, or use of named page forces a page break, then the margin top is preserved after the break.
• Drafted: margin-break: [ auto | discard | keep ] to control margin-before at page-breaks. auto is behavior described above. Can add second value to control margin-after (defaults to discard).
• Resolved: page-break-before, page-break-after: column to force column breaks, other values apply to column breaking as well as pages.
• Resolved: Håkon to clearly distinguish GCPM features that are moving forward, then propose publishing a new WD.
• Resolved: New syntax is image-resolution: normal | [ <dpi> || auto ] Rationale: Removes unused combinations and unnecessary comma.
• Resolved: Replace image-resolution: auto with image-resolution: from-image. Rationale: auto vs. normal is hard to understand. (‘normal’ is 1 pixel == 1px).
• Resolved: URLs inside functional notation where URL is expected should be able to take either url() or bare strings (like @import), preference for examples is bare strings.
• Discussed removing ‘background-image-resolution’ in favor of various options. So far idea is that image-resolution applies to all images and we will introduce functional notation in the future to allow setting resolution on a per-image basis.
• Håkon to prepare CSS Multicolumn Layout for Last Call publication; expecting a long (8 weeks) LC period to elicit comments and clarifications.
• Margins of multicol element no longer collapse with first/last children.
