Minutes and Resolutions Seattle F2F Sunday AM: IVS, Flexbox, HTML5

IVS Feedback

• Resolved: Send fantasai’s draft as official comment from CSSWG on Unicode PRI184.

Flexbox

• Resolved: Use flex-wrap: wrap | nowrap in place of flex-lines: single | multiple.
• Discussed ways of representing flexbox item flow directions as a property. No
  conclusion yet.
• Discussed alignment of flexbox items. No conclusion.
• Proposal presented for ‘true-center’ alignment in flexbox. No conclusion.
• Discussed display-inside and display-outside split of display property.
  No conclusion. Tab to collect use cases.
• Discussed handling of abspos children of a flexbox. Various unhappy with the idea
  of copying the nonsensical behavior from tables, but there was no solid alternative
  proposal.
• Discussed block-in-inline splits within a flexbox and implications of the box
  generation model.

HTML5 LC

• It was pointed out that while the HTMLWG and CSSWG have goals that align and
  seem to mostly agree on the dividing line between their scopes, communication
  between the groups has been lacking.
• Potential issues raised include:
  • selectors used in HTML5 that are not defined in any CSS draft
  • lack of disabled attribute for style sheet links
  • references to CSSWG editors’ drafts rather than official /TR drafts

  Tantek created a wiki page to track issues.
