Re: [csswg-drafts] [web-animations-1] Clarification needed on parsing/handling iteration duration

> 10:41 AM birtles: Are values other than 'auto' valid for the iteration duration value? If not, should step 3 of https://drafts.csswg.org/web-animations-1/#update-the-timing-properties-of-an-animation-effect specify also that we should check whether the value is 'auto' and bail if it's not?
> 10:42 AM I'm also not clear from the spec when 'auto' should be parsed, I assume it's implicit in the "duration → iteration duration" step since most of the spec treats 'iteration duration' as a number
> 10:43 AM Oh wait, but getTiming() has to return 'auto' so I guess it has to live
> 6:29 PM smcgruer: Yeah, that could definitely be more clear. I think it might come down to this sentence, "In this level of this specification, the string value auto is equivalent to zero." But "equivalent" is way too under-specified.
> 6:29 PM Yeah, 'auto' needs to be preserved.
> 6:30 PM This is actually more clear in level 2 which has the "intrinsic iteration duration" concept.
> 6:30 PM Something got lost when I split the levels out.
> 6:31 PM It has, "The string value auto is used to indicate that the iteration duration reflects the animation effect’s intrinsic iteration duration."
> 6:31 PM And then it has various definitions for the intrinsic iteration duration.
> 6:31 PM Do you mind filing an issue?

I'm pretty sure the birtles/smcgruer in that log have been switched.
