Re: [Agenda] WG/CG Telecon Thurs Jul 1, 9:00 am PDT

Attendees:  Hongchan Choi, Matthew Paradis, Jack Schaedler, Raymond Toy

Minutes:

   - Admin
      - Travis CI not working?
      <https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/issues/2364>
         - Raymond: Not sure what's going on.  Some PRs from the same time
         have it and some don't.
         - Matt: Is this related to Chris's issue about migrating away from
         Travis?
         - Raymond: Not sure; I think Chris says it's a W3C problem, and
         our repo is on github.  May just want to migrate to github
actions anyway.
         But we need to get CI working again because that's how we
check the PR is
         ok, and that's how changes get pushed to the editors draft.
      - Review of process to update the spec
      <https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/issues/2362>
         - [Raymond describes issue]
         - Matt: How is this handled? Can we update the draft?
         - Raymond: Yes, that's my understanding
         - Hongchan: So we have to use these candidate
         additions/corrections?
         - Raymond: Chris was pretty clear that that's what we have to do
         even for typos.
      - V1
      - New Issues
         - Use new WebIDL buffer primitives
         <https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/issues/2361>
            - Raymond: old link no longer work so we have to update.  This
            really complicates things, and now other PRs won't pass
Travis because
            bikeshed will complain the link doesn't exist.
         - PRs
         - Fix typo in VUMeterNode
         <https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/pull/2356>
         - Fix #2339: Fix ecma262 completion
         <https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/pull/2350>
         - Use new Web IDL buffer primitives
         <https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/pull/2363>
      - V2
      - New issues
         - Audio track to use in decodeAudioData
         <https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api-v2/issues/132>
            - Raymond: Just need to specify the first track.  Not sure if
            that's well-defined.  The first track for
MediaStreamAudioSource was not.
            - Hongchan: Right.  It wasn't well-defined
            - Raymond: We'll have to look into this.
         - Expose AudioContext in Worker/ServiceWorker
         <https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api-v2/issues/131>
            - Hongchan: Had a discussion in a crbug. Not sure it makes
            sense in a serviceworker.  Paul made a similar comment.
            - Raymond: Should we say no?
            - Hongchan: Perhaps we need more discussion
            - Jack: Perhaps worker first, and service worker at lower
            priority.  Not something I would currently be interested in.
            - Hongchan: Might need extensive discussion with privacy and
            security because there's a high-priority thread running in
the background.
            - Jack: Doesn't really align with what I think service workers
            are for (caching stuff for later.)
            - Jack: What about PictureInPicture use-case in the original
            comment?
            - Hongchan: Not sure how that would work; there's no user
            input, so webaudio would be blocked anyway because there
can't be a user
            gesture.
         - 16 Priority-1 issues
      <https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api-v2/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Apriority-1>
         - Render Capacity
         <https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api-v2/issues/40>
            - Hongchan: Privacy discussions still going on.  Seems ok
            because it's only on AudioContext, and blocked via
autoplay. Have not
            finalized API.  Privacy team prefers event based instead of polling.
            - Jack: Event based (regular intervals) is ok.
            - Raymond: Was just wondering how accurate event system would
            be since you can't control when the event is received.
            - Hongchan: But it will contain the right info for the last
            event, unlike polling where you don't know where the
interval begins and
            ends.
         - Other Business
      - New news
         - Raymond will be leaving Google on July 16; may rejoin the group
         later when things settle down.
         - Matt: WAC is next week, in Spain, but virtual.  18 euros to
         register.
