MInutes and Resolutions 2009-08-12

• Discussed adding gradients to css3-images. Straw poll indicates yes, there is support for this in the WG. Several people sympathized with
  Bert’s argument argument against expanding the scope of CSS too much, but didn’t object to the proposal for gradients. Hyatt and roc will draft a combined proposal. fantasai suggests simplifying the syntax.
• Resolved: Accept Bert’s proposal to change the Media Queries and CSS2.1 Appendix G grammars to use a new media_list production so that Media Queries can easily swap out the relevant part of CSS2.1’s syntax.
• Re-Resolved: @media { ... } (no media type or query) is invalid.
• Resolved: Publish updated CR draft of Media Queries with these changes.
• Discussed effect of drop-shadows on layout. No resolution, but CSS Backgrounds and Borders level 3 will include wording on both border-image and box-shadow not affecting layout or triggering scrolling, and the CSS3 module covering overflow will need to discuss in detail the differences between overflow that affects layout/scrolling, and overflow that does not.
• Brad Kemper added as co-editor of css3-background.
