Memory Test

   <dom_scribe> [21]Memory test

     [21] http://static.webvm.net/json

   <scribe> ACTION: Dom to check if we can host the memory test on a
   W3C server [recorded in
   [22]http://www.w3.org/2009/01/27-mwts-minutes.html#action09]
   [PENDING]

     [22] http://www.w3.org/2009/01/27-mwts-minutes.html#action09

   <scribe> ACTION: Kai to make success message in memory test more
   userfriendly [recorded in
   [23]http://www.w3.org/2009/01/27-mwts-minutes.html#action10] [DONE]

     [23] http://www.w3.org/2009/01/27-mwts-minutes.html#action10

   Kai: I changed the message, but I'm not too sure it's much more user
   friendly

   Dom: some problems when going up in the memory scale - the highest
   page is not rendered on my palm

   Kai: not too sure how to work around that; maybe need to make going
   up and down by clicking rather than automatically
   ... I'll look into it

   <scribe> ACTION: Kai to look further into memory test usability
   [recorded in
   [24]http://www.w3.org/2009/02/03-mwts-minutes.html#action08]

   Wilhelm: also, having the front page listing some reasonable values
   could be useful

   <scribe> ACTION: Dom to run the memory test on his devices [recorded
   in [25]http://www.w3.org/2009/01/06-mwts-minutes.html#action08]
   [PENDING]

     [25] http://www.w3.org/2009/01/06-mwts-minutes.html#action08

   Dom: started, but want to test more and report

   <scribe> ACTION: Wilhelm to run the memory test on his devices
   [recorded in
   [26]http://www.w3.org/2009/01/06-mwts-minutes.html#action07]
   [PENDING]

     [26] http://www.w3.org/2009/01/06-mwts-minutes.html#action07

   Wilhelm: will do that tomorrow

   Kai: I have tested it on a few devices now
   ... most mobile devices do reasonably well
   ... I think we shouldn't overrate the memory limitation problem
   ... in the guidelines - it's likely not a big problem

   Dom: we actually hit that problem in some of our test reviews: the
   javascript performance tests, the DOM Level test, etc

   Wilhelm: there are different problems that big memory usage can
   bring: stop the page loading, but also making the browser horribly
   sluggish
   ... e.g. a popular Norway web site with a 1.5 MB homepage

   <wilhelm> dontgoto://www.sina.com.cn/

Web Compatibility Test

   <dom_scribe> [27]WCTMB

     [27] http://www.w3.org/2008/06/mobile-test/

   <scribe> ACTION: Kai to push forward with finding a replacement for
   the inputmode test [recorded in

   for the time being :)

   <scribe> ACTION: Wilhelm to review Kai's new blog entry [recorded in

     [30] http://www.w3.org/2009/01/06-mwts-minutes.html#action05

   Wilhelm: have ideas, but haven't had the time to implement them

   <dom_scribe> [31]canvas test and todata: URL usage

     [31] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-mwts/2009Jan/0025.html

   Kai: don't know too much about todata: URL - I know it's in the
   HTML5 spec
   ... there seems to be security problems with it
   ... not sure why opera is the only one that seems to do it properly

   Wilhelm: not sure what the security implications are
   ... the goal is to allow for 'saving' what gets drawn through canvas

   <wilhelm> [32]http://annevankesteren.nl/2006/08-paintr21

     [32] http://annevankesteren.nl/2006/08-paintr21

   Dom: do we really need it for that test?

   wilhelm: depends on what we want to test
   ... if we only want to test the drawing aspect, we probably don't
   need it

   Dom: I would suggest we should stick to simple canvas, without
   todata: - not too sure how well it is specified anyway

   RESOLUTION: remove todata: url from the canvas test

   <scribe> ACTION: Kai to modify the canvas test to not rely on the
   todata: url scheme [recorded in
