&lt;Rossen_> Topic: ellipse() grammar gratuitously inconsistent with radial-gradient()<br>
&lt;Rossen_> github: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/824<br>
&lt;bramus> Rossen_: last issue<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: i have one question about latest comment<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: jake his example is circle not ellipse<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: we also cover that?<br>
&lt;bramus> TabAtkins: maybe?<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: does it use nearest/farthest corner?<br>
&lt;bramus> TabAtkins: yes<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: so proposal would both cover circle and ellipse<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: looking through the issue<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: we want to change both circle and ellipse in basic shapes to match radial gradients<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: and i am fine with that<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: do we also want to retaint he facility that te basic ellipse function has<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: which is to define an ellipse that is as large as is possible for a given reference box<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: if we do this then there will be no breakage with current shape ellipses in use<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: but we would also wamt to add this to the gradient syntax<br>
&lt;bramus> TabAtkins: yeah<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: fine going either way<br>
&lt;bramus> Rossen_: lets pick one<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: do it all<br>
&lt;lea> +1<br>
&lt;bramus> astearns: update the basic shape functions and update radial-gradient<br>
&lt;bramus> Rossen_: opinions?<br>
&lt;bramus> lea: yes, do it!<br>
&lt;bramus> Rossen_: ojbections?<br>
&lt;bramus> slicen<br>
&lt;bramus> Rossen_: resolved<br>
&lt;bramus> RESOLVE: update the basic shape functions and update radial-gradient<br>
&lt;bramus> Rossen_: and that concludes the list of issues<br>
&lt;dbaron> RESOLVED: update the basic shape functions and update radial-gradient<br>
