CL: We said it would just be traits, but you cannot access
everyhitng with just traits so we added get/set attribute
... We got comfortable with get/setAttribute. The issue is if they
can normalize. With DOM 3 they can
... We say normalization will happen in SVGT 1.2
... Can't put 7 spaces, value and do getAttribute and expect spaces
... Whay do they want it removed
ED: They were added at the request of CDF
CL: Ok, so it's the same as setAttributeNS but using null
... Worrying about what happens when you get a qualified attribute
... If you as for href, do you get xlink:href or only an unnames
attribute called href?
... Most attributes we have are unqualified
... Most of our attribures are in the unnamed namespace
... I do not see their examples as counter-intuitive
... As their example increases, it gets confusing
DS: We should ask them to join a telcon
CL: I don't understand how they are getting the answers they do
... Think we need to respond to their e-mail asking for
clarifications
<scribe> ACTION: Aemmons to write JSR 287 EG and ask for
clarification [recorded in
[14]http://www.w3.org/2008/05/13-svg-minutes.html#action01]
<trackbot-ng> Created ACTION-2011 - Write JSR 287 EG and ask for
clarification [on Andrew Emmons - due 2008-05-20].
Path normalization close command
<ed>

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-svg-wg/2008AprJun/0015.html
ED: Discussed this in previous telcon
CL: Saw a concern that if path added an extra line it would affect
interpolation of path data because there is an extra segment
DS: Also affects semantics of it. Script trying to detect if
something was a closed path might have more difficulty
ED: I wasn't saying you remove the close command, but close command
interpreted as a lineTo
DS: I think adding a 'z' is enough
ED: Yes, the spec says if the end path is not the same as the start,
you do a lineTo the start
... But am fine either way
... No strong opinion
CL: Would like to see what implementations do
... Would like to see a test. One with implicit close one without
... Investigate a bit what implementations do
DS: What implementations do we expect to test?
CL: is the normalization aspect part of 1.1?
ED: Partly, it says these are the allowed commands but does not
mandate how it is done
CL: It is now a problem because now we have internal normilization
exposed ( what is in the DOM )
... 1.2 Tiny implementations but worth it to investigate 1.1 as
well, the interpolation aspect at least
DS: I ask because I do not use these as an author ( Path DOM ) for
1.1
CL: Test 2 paths, see if they interpolate, no DOM used there
... Separately, another which has a path and then uses DOM to
display segments
DS: Might be best to simply specify something and notify
implementations.
... If we're finding this now, seems like a minor issue
CL: I don't think so.
... Certainly worth testing the interpolation with 1.1
<scribe> ACTION: Andreas to create two tests for normalizing 'z'.
One with interpolation with 1.1, another with path DOM. Note one
exists already for 1.2 DOM [recorded in
[16]http://www.w3.org/2008/05/13-svg-minutes.html#action02]
<trackbot-ng> Created ACTION-2012 - Create two tests for normalizing
'z'. One with interpolation with 1.1, another with path DOM. Note
one exists already for 1.2 DOM [on Andreas Neumann - due
2008-05-20].
RESOLUTION: We will investigate quickly the issues, hopefully by the
F2F meeting
Initial response for font-style issue
<ed>
[17]http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-svg/2008Apr/0070.html

ED: Cameron suggests fixing our free font to have an italic version
CL: Sure, font exists, we could use it
... All doesn't mean it guarentees it has bold/italic, it means it's
really not telling you what it has
... A agree, having italic as well would be good, and font-style.
But those are specific responses to the test
AE: IN other words, there needsw to still be some clarification
CL: I don't mind responding
<scribe> ACTION: Chris to respond to Kalle regarding font-style
issue [recorded in
[19]http://www.w3.org/2008/05/13-svg-minutes.html#action03]
<trackbot-ng> Created ACTION-2013 - Respond to Kalle regarding
font-style issue [on Chris Lilley - due 2008-05-20].
Font-family selection
<ed>
[20]http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-svg/2008Apr/0069.html
[20] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-svg/2008Apr/0069.html
CL: Again, requires some possible clarification in the spec.
... I strated to look at this and collect the relevant pieces.
<ChrisL> [21]http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/fonts.html#aname
[21] http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/fonts.html#aname
<ChrisL> A full font name would be Helvetica-BoldItalic
<ChrisL> a font family name would be helvetica
CL: A lot of Adobe tools get this wrong
<ed> [22]http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/fonts.html#FontFaceNameElement
doesn't really say anything about what it is
[22] http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/fonts.html#FontFaceNameElement
<scribe> ACTION: Chris to review font-family selection e-mail, bring
issues back to the group for discussion [recorded in
[23]http://www.w3.org/2008/05/13-svg-minutes.html#action04]
<trackbot-ng> Created ACTION-2014 - Review font-family selection
e-mail, bring issues back to the group for discussion [on Chris
Lilley - due 2008-05-20].

scripting/animation )
<scribe> ACTION: Anthony to create test with both animation and
scripting [recorded in

<trackbot-ng> Created ACTION-2016 - Create test with both animation
and scripting [on Anthony Grasso - due 2008-05-20].
<ChrisL> eg an animation from red to yellow, half way through a
script changes red to blue on the element so the animation now goes
from blue to yellow
