Resolved: Rename CSS Timing Functions to CSS Easing Functions, shortname: css-easing, to accommodate future use outside animations (e.g. for color transitions in gradients)
Resolved: Renames frames to steps, argument names TBD.
The argument names for steps will be decided later in the F2F. Current suggestions include:
1. distribute, justify
2. distribute, stretch
3. space-evenly, space-between
4. center, stretch
5. both, neither
6. trim-start, trim-end, trim-both, no-trim*
7. short, long
8. include, exclude

Resolved: Wrt request to compute missing counter styles to ‘decimal’, no change to CR; revert the change to the Editor’s draft. (This is because it would require recomputing styles if a new @counter-style rule is appended.)
Resolved: The language of a counter is computed based on the language of the element that the counter applies to at the point of retrieval.

Resolved: Florian to move the reference to informative, and provide specification text describing the color space (color values, white points, etc)
Resolved: Take Media Queries 4 to CR.

birtles outlined his proposal (explained here) for additive CSS:
- The proposal was based on how Web Animations are working in the web now.
- Additive CSS would allow for multiple animations to be applied simultaneously.
- The order to add things would come from the ‘animation-name’ property where anything that can’t be added would fall back to replace.
- This proposal also had a less defined section that would introduce !add to allow other sections of CSS to be added, such as filters.
There were several people who that this was really two proposals, not just one, and that they may need to be separated.
Resolved: No concerns wrt shipping Web Animations
Resolved: CSSWG is interested in working on additive cascade proposals.

Resolved: First baseline of multicol is first baseline of first col, last baseline synthesized as described above (first baseline = first line of first column; for last baseline, synthesize based on bottom margin edge). (Issue #1572)
Resolved: Slash must be used to separate main value and fallback value in shorthand and longhands alignment properties. (Issue #1002)
