ED> - Progress on LC comments ISSUE-2344 and related ACTION-2821 and ACTION-2800 seems to be in good shape, after enquiring about a couple of problem areas and getting responses, I'm ready to make the edits to the references section and reply to Mohamed. ISSUE-2349 Media type registration saw some action recently. The editors draft is updated to account for the two comments that were received in ietf-types review and one of the IESG Area Directors was in touch (todday in fact) regarding next steps in the registration. They are in a hurry as an Internet Draft on 'Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure - Certificate Image' is about to move to a Proposed Standard RFC and references the svg media type. So as soon as we are out of Last Call and we have a stable document reference, it will be sent for IESG approval. ISSUE-2340 I ran into a problem with during testing, see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-svg-wg/2010JulSep/0010.html ED> - Catmull-Rom curves ED> http://schepers.cc/?p=243 awesome. Is that the same as the thing Robert Miner was talking about? Smooth curve through a bunch of points is a needed feature. It can be complicated if there are constraints on where the curve goes between points. Sometimes curves like that get really wild yo-yo effects between points. By the way, besides producing drawn geometry, there is also an application of 'smooth curve through some points' to gradients. Consider each stop colour as a point in 3D space (the colour space). What we currently do in gradients is draw a straight line segment between each of the points. This leads to visual discontinuities as the slope of the line changes abruptly from point to point. A smooth curve avoids this. But has to be constrained to not move outside the colourspace, otherwise some colours in the resulting gradient are not, well, colours. ED> Further topics depend on who's on the call, agenda requests are welcome as ED> always. I know, this was a long 'regrets'. Consider me conflicted. If I get guilted enough I might even show up tonight. -- Chris Lilley mailto:chris@w3.org Technical Director, Interaction Domain W3C Graphics Activity Lead Co-Chair, W3C Hypertext CG
