trackbot, start meeting
<trackbot> Date: 11 February 2010
<anne> I don't have a working Skype so I won't be able to attend
<anne> If any more updates to html5-diff are needed please email, I'll get to it tomorrow or so.
<paulc> Thanks, anne.
<paulc> I will mention the diffs status for you when we get to agenda item 3
<paulc> who is CAI-1?
<scribe> scribe: rubys
<paulc> agenda: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2010Feb/0261.html
paulc: there's been one comment, but no other comment. Can we close the action now?
masinter: I'm trying to figure out at what point do people get to make comments?
paulc: is that a comment you can make on the thread?
masinter: we should see the final result before we approve it
paulc: this is a never ending loop... it is out for comments
masinter: it wasn't clear to me
<Julian> are we all talking about the same issue?
paulc: I believe that the plan is to start to use this policy, and I expect that we will need some changes in the future
close action-127
<trackbot> ACTION-127 establish process for "official WG response" to other WG's RFC on LC drafts closed
MikeSmith: it is done, we can close the item. Everything is moved over. The old wiki is readonly now.
Paulc: link to the new wiki?
<MikeSmith> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/Main_Page
close action-163
<trackbot> ACTION-163 MediaWiki successor for current MoinMoin based wiki closed
<masinter> when there are comments on a document, the editor makes edits to respond to the comments, and the editor's response is reviewed by the group to make sure the group agrees to the editor's edit. If Maciej is editor of this document, then he should update it to respond to the comments on it. The comment was: the working group doesn't have an opportunity to review the proposed working group response before the working group's response is
<masinter> set.
paulc: I made some comments
MikeSmith: I believe I've addressed them
<masinter> The TAG had requested that it contain the RELAX-NG schema visible
MikeSmith: some parts won't show up until I flip the status to FPWD. I need a date.
PaulC: I'm not going to predict the date
<MikeSmith> http://dev.w3.org/html5/markup/
close action-168
<trackbot> ACTION-168 Prepare H:TML for First Public Working Draft closed
<masinter> i updated the status of the action
<masinter> action-172?
<trackbot> ACTION-172 -- Larry Masinter to insure Change Proposal for ISSUE-4 (versioning) also covers ISSUE-84 (legacy doctype) -- due 2010-02-18 -- OPEN
<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/actions/172
masinter: we are still discussing
this in the tag
... I updated the date to the 18th
... that discussion is occuring on www-tag
<masinter> uoting: 2010-02-10 17:49:18: Looks like I might get help from TAG, see, for example, TAG action 388 http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/388 and http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/368, and "goals" for this change proposal at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2010Feb/0095.html
<masinter> [Larry Masinter]
masinter: I updated the action to point to this discussion
<masinter> action-174?
<trackbot> ACTION-174 -- Larry Masinter to send info about IETF IRI working group, next meeting, mailing list, status of documents, etc., to HTML WG -- due 2010-02-15 -- OPEN
<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/actions/174
masinter: I postponed this by a few days
paulc: other action items will be convered in the i11y tf discussion
paulc: we now have a diffs doc
and a call for consensus
... all of the comments on the diffs document are being
worked
<paulc> CfC: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2010Feb/0262.html
paulc: any questions?
<masinter> do I need to repeat objections?
paulc: the co-chairs are aware of the formal objection
rubys: it would be helpful to repeat the objection
paulc: it would be helpful to people who aren't reading w3-archive email
plh: we won't approve the FPWDs until the FO is resolved
<masinter> sure, i'll forward my comment on scope
paulc: plh and larry, can you post the FO on the public-html list and the affects on the plans?
(plh and larry each agree)
paulc: people should look at the bugzilla entries
<Laura> HTML WG Process Bug List
<Laura> http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/buglist.cgi?product=HTML+WG&component=working+group+Decision+Policy
paulc: any questions?
larry: it is baffling to me what the process is for dealing with the bugzilla bugs. Feels like Nomic.
<masinter> "Nomic"
paulc: we documented your
questions as bugs, and decided to track transparently the
comments we receive and how we are disposing of them.
... this is no different than the W3C Process document. If a
person makes a comment, a bug is opened.
larry: who processes bugs on the bug reports?
paulc: we documented this in
public, put out a call for consensus, and made it clear that we
are going to start using it as early as possible.
... we have had comments on it. In order to track those
comments, we are simply using bugzilla to create a transparent
history.
<Laura> Will the process bugs have an escalation process to the tracker?
paulc: I put this on the agenda to ensure that everybody is aware. There was somebody not aware last week, and I pointed him to bugzilla, and there is a new bug.
masinter: the answer to my question is that the chairs will make changes
<masinter> got it
paulc: the chairs will propose changes and come back to the wg
<Laura> thanks
paulc: (re Laura's q) the chairs haven't discussed this, but we would certainly consider doing that...
<masinter> i think the issue is that the working group process needs to follow the W3C Process, and that escalation should go to the AB
paulc: maybe you should open a bug
<masinter> escalation of process issues
rubys: that would be a reasonable next step after the WG decision
ISSUE-83: I believe that this is still in process
<trackbot> ISSUE-83 Use of the dt and dd elements in figure and details content models notes added
paulc: issue-83 is resolved
close issue-83
<trackbot> ISSUE-83 Use of the dt and dd elements in figure and details content models closed
(none)
paulc: there has been discussion
about issue 27 as to whether we can resolve this issue until
the registry has been tested
... I've sent some emails to get some status. The IETF doc is
in 2nd last call. It is only after the doc is closed that the
registry can be created
Julian: after it has been updated, it needs to to the IESG and then to the RFC editor and then to IANA... we at least are talking 6-8 weeks
paulc: so the question is whether
we keep this in limbo for that time
... please update the thread with this info
<masinter> i don't think it's "limbo" when there's a clear path
paulc: we'll leave issues 27 in it current state for now.
paulc: maciej has the ball...
<masinter> issue-88?
<trackbot> ISSUE-88 -- Should meta/@content allow a list of languages instead of just a single language? -- OPEN
<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/88
paulc: leave this in its current status and decide next week if a CfC or amicable resolution is the right next step
<paulc> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2010Feb/0260.html
masinter: Matt is on vacation
rubys: this is for counters to Matt's proposal...
paulc: that's useful data, so that we don't misinterpret silence from Matt.
masinter: perhaps others from the a11y tf can help
<krisk> We met as a group on 2/9 (see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-testsuite/2010Feb/0002.html)
<krisk> In addition to reviewing the tracker items and status (see http://www.w3.org/html/wg/test/track/actions/)
<krisk> The biggest discussion was around leveraging the old DOM HTML Test suite.
<krisk> The suite contains a number of tests that are part of HTML5.
<krisk> Though it appears that some tests are not correct or interoperable with current modern browsers.
<krisk> I expect that the testing task force will report back and create a bug, if we indeed need to clarify the HTML5 spec.
paulc: questions? comments?

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/actions/173
paulc: when does the task force intend to bring back specific proposals for specific issues?
mike: I'm not sure when we will have further resolution on summary. As far as canvas... they are still working on details. I can't give a firm date.
cyns: we expect to have a proposal for summary ready for the TF next tuesday, and this should be ready for the next WG call

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/32
cyns: any member who is interested in this topic should watch the tf mailing list
paulc: it would help with
confidence once we start seeing results.... it would also help
to give people more heads up.
... thank you to the TF
MichaelC: We have gone into bugzilla, and grouped them into related bugs, and would like to be able to do 5-10 bugs per week

kris: as the a11y tf brings forward proposals, it would be useful if they would also identify instances where test cases are required
cyns: we are not quite there yet
paulc: we are continuing to discuss F2F meeting with other chairs and are looking at a date in April and are well aware of the feedback on the public-html list
cyns: looking for hosts?
paulc: we have several offers, so that is not a concern.
Paulc volunteers to scribe
masinter: re: the F2F, are you accepting suggestions for agenda items?
paulc: post suggestions to the list
masinter: a prioritized list of issues on which we haven't made progress would be a good place to start
paulc: we seem to be making good
progress, people are welcome to propose specific issues
... it is highly unlikely that we will be making decisions at a
F2F
masinter: I'm not tracking all of the issues that are open

criteria
