Details:

to a standalone IRC client, W3C provides an IRC gateway accessible via
the browser at http://cgi.w3.org/member-bin/irc/irc.cgi

Topics:

1) SVG Open 2009
- status and updates (Google? Mozilla? Opera?)

2) SVG Community Website
- svg.org is now down, not sure on the status but it's becoming more
important to get planetsvg.com off and running
- visual look & feel - progress of Drupal theme
- discussion of wireframe/flow of site:
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/IG/wiki/Community_Website_Activity#Design
- generating content for the site (tutorials, etc), ways to spread the link
- other plans (what are people interested in working on for the site):
 a) Separate Feeds for News/Blogs/Forums?
 b) Email subscriptions for forums and forum topics?
 c) Mechanism to upload SVG files (moderated)?

3) Content Author Bugs in Browsers
- identification of specific bugs/behaviors across browsers that cause
author pain (for example, svg:title elements are not handled as
tooltips)
- for example, http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/IG/wiki/Accessibility_Activity#Implementation_Status_.28Current_Behavior.2C_Bugs.29
- gather list of bugs and determine low-hanging fruit (quick fixes),
contact developers, etc

Jeff Schiller
