Re: [Minutes] PM WG 2024-02-02

Hi,

Just a note about Figure 10 in the webtoons proposal (https://raw.githack.com/w3c/epub-specs/webtoons-proposal/epub33/core/index.html#fig-fxl-flow-scrolled-continuous): it does not fully represent the challenge relative to the intended presentation of the pages. 

To be representative of the expectation, the "device" should display half of the first image + half of the second image. The current illustration can be interpreted as a simpler "vertical scroll-doc" (which is not specified but is, in fact, what most reading systems do when facing vertical scroll). 

Note also that 
- webtoons are not pre-paginated publications. They are full-image publications. We are many to have said it before: EPUB is not a good format for full-image publications. 
- interpreting "rendition:scrolled-continuous" in the full-image field as an implicit vertical scroll is a short-sighted view. Webtoons are a huge market and B2B transfers must be addressed by our industry, but what about horizontal scroll?

Any solution created by the international W3C must also address these other forms of art.
