Summary:
- Discussed comments on WOFF. No CSS-related issues were found, but
Steve Zilles and Bert Bos have other comments that they will send
individually.
- Reviewed status of CSS2.1 test results. Peter Linss put up lists
of REC-blocking tests for wiki analysis.
http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/blocking
http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/invalid (as reported in UA reports;
http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/issues tracks public-css-testsuite)
Discussion of analysis scheduled for next telecon.
- fantasai updated the CSS module template and posted it to dev.w3.org.
All CSS modules will need to be updated with relevant parts of the
boilerplate text, so editors should review the template this week.
http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-module/
Actions:
- spec editors to review updated module template
- Peter Linss to ask jdaggett if he has any CSS-related comments on WOFF;
if not, send note that CSSWG has no comments wrt CSS, but that
individual members will send comments on other issues they noticed.
- fantasai to set up nightly builds of the CSS2.1 test suite
- Arron to create wiki analysis template, analyse Microsoft blocking tests
- dbaron to analyze abspos and float-wrap tests
- fantasai to analyse remaining tests

Comments on WOFF
----------------
SteveZilles says something quietly
<szilles> i sent comments on WOFF http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2011Jan/0020.html
sylvaing: Bert sent feedback about WOFF to the WG list, but it never
made it to www-style
plinss notes we are already late on comments for WOFF
SteveZ: Most of my comments were editorial. The other seemed to be a
conflict in their spec, possibly nontrivial to fix.
SteveZ: They have a note about not following the XML ID syntax when
putting an ID in the font, since elsewhere they say it must
be well-formed XML in the metadata
<dsinger> seems like it's either an XML ID or it needs a different name
plinss: How do we want to proceed on this?
SteveZ: Do we have a URL for Bert's comments?
sylvaing: Should ask Bert if he could either make his comments public,
or if we can forward it.
sylvaing: He's on both working groups [...]
plinss: Are these official comments from the WG? Do we need discussion
on these?
plinss: We have a history of unofficial comments...
dbaron: A bunch of these comments seem like comments on WOFF, not on
how it relates to the work of the CSSWG.
dbaron: It seems like official comments from the group ought to be
things in the latter category.
sylvaing: That's true.
SteveZ: The only thing I'd say is that some of the comments are from
experience developing specs that they might not have.
SteveZ: Unfortunately ChrisL isn't here, to explain why some of those
were done
Sylvaing: Well, the ID thing was because there are a number of existing
WOFF fonts out there that were using malformed XML
fantasai says something about noting that UAs must be able to process
those but they should still be nonconforming.
SteveZ: Maybe they should change the note to warn that although the ID
must be well-formed XML, but that some currently-existing
existing fonts do not adhere to this syntax.
SteveZ: I would prefer to have my comments sent as formal comments by
the WG, but I'm happy to send over unofficially.
Sylvaing: This is good feedback. It has to be clear what to do
plinss not hearing any objections
plinss: We also have Bert's comments. Do we want to send those as formal
comments?
plinss: There was still some discussion on some of Bert's comments.
fantasai: There are good comments, but I don't see a reason to send
them as WG comments.
fantasai: As dbaron says, they're not CSS comments, just good comments.
fantasai: LC requires addressing all comments, not just WG comments,
so I don't see a reason to send them on behalf of the WG.
howcome agrees
dsinger: Do we need to send a message from the WG that we have no comments?
howcome: We can do better than that. Say there were no CSS-specific
comments, but there were other comments that will be submitted
individually.
sylvaing expresses concern that jdaggett hasn't sent any direct feedback.
plinss: I don't think we can delay a week. I will send him an email
asking if he has any feedback, and if not, send the WG message.
plinss: Anything else on this topic?
CSS2.1
------
plinss: We still have a bunch of blocking tests and a bunch of invalid tests.
arronei: With the 32-bit issue we talked about last time, I think I've
addressed them all.
arronei: I will send email about it. Would be great if people could
review them.
arronei: All I need is a review from anybody to look at them.
dbaron: I can have a look when he sends out the URL.
arronei: Ok, will do that in the next half-hour
arronei: I've flagged the tests as 32bit and as may so you know they're
optional
plinss: My biggest concern at this point are the tests that have blocking
failures
plinss: We need to either modify the test or modify the spec
<plinss> http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/blocking
plinss: Do we want to discuss these one by one on a telecon? If not how
do we move forward?
fantasai: active-selector-002 was updated for RC5
* glazou has to leave the call, sorry
fantasai: I thought background-intrinsic was fixed. If it's still not
passing, it's likely a test bug...
<oyvind> I think neither webkit nor opera follow the spec on
background-intrinsic
<oyvind> and the others don't support svg backgrounds
arronei: I think discussing them on the conference call is difficult,
especially some of the margin and page breaking ones
arronei: It's unfortunate we don't have an F2F soon
arronei: ....
smfr: How about each test author creates a wiki page for that specific test
smfr: Right now we have no way to collaboratively dump information on
why we think that test is failing
arronei: I'm handling mine. In most cases the case just need to be updated.
<oyvind> http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/issues or
http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/invalid (which seems to
duplicate the former)?
smfr: You might know, but the vendors don't
fantasai: It doesn't make sense to me to do that for the invalid tests,
but for the blocking tests, that might be a good idea.
plinss: Arron, were you talking about the blocking tests or the invalid tests?
arronei: both.. I have some updates for the blocking tests
dbaron: The previous wiki page that listed blocking tests had notes on
some of those
<oyvind> http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/results
plinss: I don't want to lose the notes, but I didn't want to move them
over since they're on a much older release
<fantasai> http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1
some discussion of all the different pages that are being created to
track problems
<fantasai> http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/issues
<fantasai> I think the pages are just that one and the ones peter listed
<fantasai> http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/results
<fantasai> http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/invalid
<fantasai> http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/blocking
fantasai: Unless Peter created more pages, that should be all of them.
arronei volunteers to consolidate everything into the invalid/blocking pages
arronei: I'll create subpages for the blocking issue
fantasai suggests grouping tests that have the same issue into the same
wiki page
plinss: We need to have other people take responsibility for analyzing
the test failures, not just arron.
arronei: I'll do enough to get us started
<smfr> z-index-abspos-009 is a hixie test
<dbaron> A bunch of them (e.g., abspos-*, float-wrap-*), we've already
discussed in telecons and discussed next steps for implementors.
plinss: I want to get a commitment from the owners to review these tests
and describe their status by next week
dbaron: The ones that are mine we already had a telecon discussion about
plinss: Did we get to a resolution?
dbaron: I think in both cases we came to a resolution of who was going
to fix their implementations
dbaron: But I couldn't find minutes
dbaron: For the abspos one it was a small bug in Gecko and one in Opera
dbaron: For the float-wrap ones we had passes from MS, and I said I
would flip our behavior after FF4 and see what happens.
<dbaron> I think it was Opera, but not sure
<dbaron> (this is all from memory)
dbaron: Actually float-wrap-top might be different from the ones I
think... I'd need to go back and look
plinss: active-selector-002 has been updated
plinss: active-page-breaks?
fantasai: rewritten
dbaron: bidi-004 is tricky. There are a bunch of implementations that
are close, but not very close.
dbaron: The remaining bug for us is very hairy
plinss: Can you write up the comments?
dbaron: Prefer if fantasai did
fantasai: I can do the ones I understand, and the ones I'm not sure
of would like you to review and add comments.
fantasai: Can't do floats-wrap though
dbaron: I'll do those
fantasai: Here's the assignments:
fantasai: Arron does MS tests
fantasai: dbaron does floats-wrap and abspos
fantasai: Arron does margin-collapse
fantasai: I do anything under my folder, HP's folder, Mozilla's folder
(other than the above), and Hixie's folder
fantasai: and approved/
fantasai: I think that should cover all of the tests
<dbaron> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-css-testsuite/2010Nov/0124.html
may be relevant data for the margin-* tests
fantasai: I think the first step is for Arron to create a template for
subpages and put a few up so that dbaron and I can copy
arronei: Sure, I'll do that today
plinss: We also have a bunch of tests that we're lacking data for
plinss: Got a bunch of results from Apple this morning
plinss: Still need data from the other browsers
plinss: Big gap here is Prince, which may save us in some cases
fantasai: Another implementation we can test is Antenna House. That
may be especially useful for the page-breaking tests
fantasai: Although we'd want to test against the updated tests,
since a bunch have been fixed.
fantasai: I'll see if I can set up a nightly build on the server
fantasai: Now that we have a server with somewhat up-to-date software...
plinss: I can help with that if you need any help
plinss: Ok, let's get a nightly build set up and then we'll ping
Antenna House
plinss: any other topics?
Module Template
---------------
fantasai: I updated the module template and put it on dev.w3.org
http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-module/
fantasai: You'll notice there's a lot more boilerplate text. This is
partly because there was a lot of normative text in the
Snapshot
fantasai: Which if we don't have a normative Snapshot, needs to be
moved someplace else.
* sylvaing has resolved to say nothing about snapshots...
fantasai: And partly it's things that over the years people have
commented as being missing in our modules.
fantasai: This means that all of our existing modules need to be
updated with the relative normative bits.
fantasai: That would be, Selectors, Namespaces, Background and
Borders, UI, MultiCol, Color, Media Queries, etc.
fantasai: So I would suggest everyone review the template, since
this has to go in all our specs...
SteveZ: We haven't resolved the Snapshot issue.
SteveZ: My concern is that by copying this stuff all over the place,
it will get inconsistent.
SteveZ: But I think we agreed to postpone the Snapshot
<fantasai> http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-module/#partial
<fantasai> http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-module/#experimental
<fantasai> http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-module/#placement
<fantasai> These are the bits that were taken from the Snapshot
plinss: So meanwhile, the editors should review these.
plinss: That's it for today.
Meeting closed.
<arronei> Simple template for the blocking testcases
http://wiki.csswg.org/test/css2.1/blocking/margin-collapse
<arronei> please review the template and apply it to your testcase
failures on the blocking page
