The following answers have been successfully submitted to 'Accept requirement for immediate mode graphics a la canvas element?' (HTML Working Group) for Google, Inc. by Ian Hickson. --------------------------------- Accept requirement for immediate mode graphics a la canvas element? ---- Do use cases such as games, shared whiteboards, and yahoo pipes and others in the ESW wiki motivate a requirement that HTML 5 provide an immediate mode graphics API and canvas element? This is a proposal to close ISSUE-15 immediate-mode-graphics. Note discussion 19 November where some WG participants consider this implicitly in the scope of our March 2007 charter under "Forms and common UI widgets such as progress bars, datagrids, menus, and other controls" but others would prefer to make it more explicit in the charter. If this question carries, Dan Connolly, Chris Wilson, an Mike Smith should seek review of a clarified charter per section 5.3 Modification of an Activity of the W3C Process document. * ( ) Yes * ( ) No * ( ) Concur (cast vote with the majority) * (x) Blank vote Rationale: I strongly feel that a canvas API is already in scope, and I strongly object to reopening the charter rathole. But the question asks whether I think it is in scope and says that a "yes" answer reopens the rathole. Comments (or a URI pointing to your comments): The working group strongly objected to the desire to open the charter rathole during the face to face meeting. This question should at least have the option of answering "I believe canvas to be within the charter, and do not believe we need to change anything in the charter" separately from the current "yes". These answers were last modified on 16 November 2007 at 17:46:27 U.T.C. by Ian Hickson Answers to this questionnaire can be set and changed at http://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/40318/req-gapi-canvas/ until 2007-11-23.
