It is script based so very fast to run (one file). - Some bugs were reported on that test suite, and have been fixed, so the test suite needs to be republished. Elika has the action to do so. - Firefox currently passes all of the published test suite except for ten tests. Those are the ones with the bugs - Firefox was changed after the bugs were reported, but it needs to be run on the corrected test suite. It is then expected to get 100% pass. - Opera (the beta build I tested at the meeting) has more failures, but apparently there is a yet-unreleased codebase which does much better. Under CSS WG rules, an implementation used to test CR must be publicly available (it will be) and must have been available for at least a month. I don't really agree with that last rule myself, but there we are). - Microsoft also implements media queries. The IE10 preview has been available for more than a month. So, when the test suite is republished and the results from implementors are in, depending on the number of failure, we might be able to request PR soon, or in a month, or even longer if there are more failures. We need two independent passes per test. Art, I hope that communicates the current state of the media Queries spec. -- Chris Lilley Technical Director, Interaction Domain W3C Graphics Activity Lead, Fonts Activity Lead Co-Chair, W3C Hypertext CG Member, CSS, WebFonts, SVG Working Groups
