Reviewed status of last call comments on WOFF and Progress Events
Reviewed tests for CSS2.1 Issue 138
Resolved:
- CSS2.1 will not mandate a required range of integers. (No change to spec.)
- Update integer overflow tests to fail only if returning negative number (i.e. any supported range is ok, but overflowing is not)
- Mark such tests as ‘may’ because overflow behavior is currently not defined.
- Add assumption of 32-bit integers to test suite assumptions page.

Reviewed status of PFWG comment on CSS3 Backgrounds and Borders
Argued over whether the 2007 Snapshot should exist, prompted by the Director’s suggestion that it be a NOTE instead of a REC.
CSS2.1 Test Suite RC4 was published over the weekend. Updated implementation reports are requested. Testers are encouraged to use their latest betas with the WG harness, as this grandfathers results from unchanged tests and presents those tests that need retesting.

Minutes and Resolutions TPAC F2F 2010 Tuesday Afternoon: Logical layout, Font features, Position-Layout, Inline transforms, Haptics

By fantasai November 17, 2010 (Permalink)
Categories: resolutions

Logical Layout

Long discussion on logical (start/end/before/after) properties or values. No consensus. Dropped from css3-writing-modes draft.

Font Features

Discussed proposal to create font-specific font feature name maps. Syntax variants were discussed, with the goal of making the syntax reflect better the intended compounding behavior of the declarations.

Position Layout

Tab Atkins presented a proposal to position boxes relative to other boxes. Resolved: add to next charter as low priority.

Inline Transforms

Resolved: When inline elements are broken into multiple boxes due to either bidi or line-breaking, transforms apply to bounding box of the inline. Mark application of transforms to inlines at-risk.

Haptics

Ilkka Oksanen presented a proposal for haptics controls to mimic OS-defined widgets haptic responses. There was some concern about reintroducing the problems with system colors and/or the ‘appearance’ property.
