* `RESOLVED: Fonts with negative line gaps are clamp at 0`

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;dael> Topic: [css-fonts] The web de-facto requires nonnegative line gap metrics in fonts<br>
&lt;dael> github: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/5064<br>
&lt;dael> myles: Pretty straightforward. Browsers do it but not in spec.<br>
&lt;dael> myles: If font says it has negative line-gap it's clampped at 0<br>
&lt;dael> Rossen_: Anyone with different opinion why this shouldn't be the case?<br>
&lt;dael> Rossen_: Obj to Fonts with negative line gaps are clamp at 0<br>
&lt;dael> florian: Quesiton, have you checked this is true of print formatter?<br>
&lt;dael> myles: No, haven't checked. FF, Chrome, and WK do it<br>
&lt;dael> florian: Sounds like a good idea, wondering if done in print and how we deal with compat. Maybe just suggest they do it as well<br>
&lt;dael> Rossen_: This is why we have standards<br>
&lt;dael> RESOLVED: Fonts with negative line gaps are clamp at 0<br>
&lt;dael> myles: I think metric is within inline spec so I think this issue should be parented under that spec<br>
&lt;dael> Rossen_: Sure<br>
