PLH: if you want me to, i can look at the ReSpec problem

Patrick: that'd be great, thanks

PLH: I will also set up automatic publishing once we hit FPWD

Patrick: do we need to change prose in spec to say "First Public Working 
Draft"?

<plh> https://w3c.github.io/pointerevents/

<plh> https://w3c.github.io/pointerevents/?specStatus=FPWD

PLH: no, but you can also pass parameters for magic to happen

<plh> 
https://w3c.github.io/pointerevents/?specStatus=FPWD;publishDate=2019-12-06

PLH: you can override configuration of ReSpec with parameters in the URL

Patrick: link for request to FPWD 
https://github.com/w3c/transitions/issues/new/choose

so information we need (see 
https://github.com/w3c/transitions/issues/new?assignees=plehegar&labels=Awaiting+Director%2C+Entering+FPWD&template=fpwd.md&title=FPWD+Request+for+%3Ctitle%3E)

so for "Is it a delta specification intended to become a W3C 
Recommendation?" is it yes?

PLH: NO, it's not just a delta, level 3 supersedes level 2
... we should mention that in the status

do it in the editor's draft already

Patrick: for " Information about implementations known to the Working 
Group" i think we only have Chrome at this point (for the new level 3 
things)

PLH: do we have tests? if so, link to w3ptest (sp?) for it

Patrick: Navid will know

Link to the CfC https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/312

PLH: hoping to get Apple to implement

Patrick: they have it in Safari 13 but still listed as in development on 
https://webkit.org/status/#specification-pointer-events-level-2
... not sure after Level 3 there will be much more steam for new 
APIs/functionalities

but we'll see once we get there

PLH: if it comes to it, we'll put in maintenance mode

Patrick: [talks a bit about touch events as a spec that would be nice to 
update the CG note to touch events level 2]

<plh> /TR/pointerevents will keep pointing at Level 2 until Level 3 gets 
to CR

Patrick: agree

<plh> I'll update Level 2 to point to Level 3 in a note

Patrick: I will get in touch with Navid about the implementation 
status/tests info

if CfC passes, I will then file the FPWD request end of 5th/morning of 
the 6th

PLH: and I can have it done by following Tuesday (and will ensure 
automatic publication from that point on is set up)
