RE: [important] Japan F2F (was: Minutes 6 April 2011 SVG WG telcon)

If it is co-located, then Adobe will have at least one (if not more) representatives present who can discuss our needs and technical concerns around the FXTF work.

Subject: [important] Japan F2F (was: Minutes 6 April 2011 SVG WG telcon)

Hi, folks-

As discussed in last week's telcon, we have an opportunity to collocate 
with the CSS WG in Japan (in Osaka, now, instead of Tokyo).

The goal would be resolve outstanding issues on animation, filters, and 
other high-priority FXTF specs, especially those that have some 
disagreement or confusion about next steps.

However, in order for this to productive, we would need to have 
participation by those driving the specs, and who have particular 
opinions on how such issues should be resolved; for example, Dean from 
Apple and Patrick from Microsoft would be critical participants.  The 
value of having a collocated conference is dramatically lower if we 
don't have the right people there.

So, my question is, would everyone be able to commit to meet for at 
least part of Friday 3-9 June 2011, in Osaka (where 3 June is the joint 
meeting with CSS WG)?

Regards-
-Doug
