   <RSheeter> I submit we should ask Vlad to stop keeping the spec
   to himself :D

Media Type for Fonts

   Vlad: we need to justify it to increase odds

   DK gathered evidence which he will doubtless link to

   <kuettel> goo.gl/zbDhUN for "Web Font Media Type (mime type)
   Analysis 2015"

   DK: images have nice tidy media type format (90%+) in the form
   image/<format>
   ... fonts have a hodgepodge of media types, many of which don't
   make sense (text/plain, etc)

   <kuettel> goo.gl/1wWcMQ for "Media Type Proposal for Fonts"

   Discussion of proposal. Tl;dr we want font/<format>, eg
   font/woff2, etc

   (discussion of data)

   <kuettel> One more link, a spreadsheet in which I collected the
   data (for even more file extensions/media types)

   <kuettel>
   [6]https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OiSrVqx
   FGr1cqjNo_Pvjrr1jYNB4pAnr_Zo07D1lZmw/edit#gid=1296519463

   Vlad: We can extend the old proposal (which we have a link to?)

   action-129

   <trackbot> action-129 -- David Kuettel to Prepare a mime type
   application draft and justification for top-level "font"
   registration (with Vlad) -- due 2015-01-31 -- OPEN

   <trackbot> [7]http://www.w3.org/Fonts/WG/track/actions/129

      [7] http://www.w3.org/Fonts/WG/track/actions/129

   action vlad Prepare super final mime type application
   w/justification

   <trackbot> Created ACTION-162 - Prepare super final mime type
   application w/justification [on Vladimir Levantovsky - due
   2015-02-18].

   close action 129

   <Vlad> action 129?

   close action-129

   <trackbot> Closed action-129.

   Topic Spec Updates

   Vlad: is terribly sorry he didn't give anyone any notice

   <kuettel>
   [8]http://dev.w3.org/webfonts/WOFF2/spec/#collection_dir_format

      [8] http://dev.w3.org/webfonts/WOFF2/spec/#collection_dir_format

   Vlad: Changed Table directory to a parent topic with table and
   collection under it
   ... added language to keep glyf/loca pairs together
   ... changed numbers to 255UInt16
   ... How to handle TTC format

   *version

   (exciting discussion of use of null vs 0 in spec)

   Question of why we have collection font flavor

   as you can infer type from what tables are present

   action jkthame Write proposal (eg email wg) on removal of
   flavor (because it can be inferred)

   <trackbot> Error finding 'jkthame'. You can review and register
   nicknames at <[9]http://www.w3.org/Fonts/WG/track/users>.

      [9] http://www.w3.org/Fonts/WG/track/users

   After much discussion, we have agreed to have further
   discussion once Jon writes a paragraph on the topic of dropping
   font flavor (which appears to apply to both collections and
   individual fonts)

   Vlad: would appreciate test plan ideas for the new test
   scenarios

   Topic TTML

   Fonts seems like it would fit into TTML but isn't presently
   covered; are we interested in this?

   (if we don't poke it is likely fonts will be left out)

   <kuettel> One quick update on the Brotli specification review
   front. Mark Adler setup a github repository to track his work
   (questions/comments on the specification and for the Brotli
   decoder that he is developing) @
   [10]https://github.com/madler/brotli Everyone is welcome to
   subscribe and follow along

     [10] https://github.com/madler/brotli

   TTML group also handles WebVTT

   Vlad will fwd more info, suggestions on how to interact, etc
