Thank Erik! I didn't know that this was a replacement for the current spec. So far, I think these are the following proposed changes: - remove section 6, the filter effects region - remove backgound-image and background-alpha - remove section on the enable-background keyword - change default behavior of an unknown filter to 'ignore' instead of the 'null filter' - remove filters that create an image and move them to the image-values spec (ie feTurbulence) - remove the feComposite filter and replace with the CSS/SVG compositing spec Rik On Wed, May 4, 2011 at 4:41 AM, Erik Dahlstrom <ed@opera.com> wrote: > On Tue, 03 May 2011 20:30:05 +0200, Rik Cabanier <cabanier@gmail.com> > wrote: > > All, >> >> in yesterday's meeting is sounded that the CSS Filter spec is going to >> affect the regular (non-CSS) SVG filter spec as well. >> Did I understand this correctly? >> > > It's "Filter Effects 1.0", and the spec can be found here: > > https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/FXTF/raw-file/tip/filters/publish/Filters.html > > As agreed in earlier discussions in the taskforce we're making one spec.
