RE: [Bug 23220] Add 'zoom' constraint to VideoStreamTrack

You have also stated separately that if a bug has been out and not debated for 6 days, that the bug is 'uncontroversial' - see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-media-capture/2013Sep/0180.html.  Bug 23220 was out for slightly longer without any debate.  I could use your logic to come to the conclusion that bug 23220 is 'uncontroversial', but I'll settle to merely use your comments on bug 23263 as an example of what I believe is inconsistency on your part.

And I do not believe this is a case of "one person has said that he wants in the spec":  see https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/dap/raw-file/tip/media-stream-capture/proposals/SettingsAPI_proposal_v6.html#changing-zoom-in-response-to-user-input.


I will request that you leave the bug unresolved for now and allow me to present a case to the mailing list.  Otherwise I will re-file the bug, because I do think this needs to be resolved before last call.

Giri, you have failed to get support for your position.

Please focus on showing that there is support in the group for adding zoom to *version 1.0 of the spec*. At the moment, all that is clear is that you want it.

We are not using open bugs in the bug tracker to keep track of all the ideas that one person has said that he wants in the spec; we're using it to keep track of where the spec needs to be modified before we can issue a WG Last Call on version 1.0.
