<tbah> +33 is me
<heycam> Scribe: Vincent
<heycam> ScribeNick: vhardy
heycam: Introductions for Rik and Vincent.
cabanier: Our group is mostly interested in the SVG Compositing and
SVG Filters spec. and make it ready for use in CSS. The SVG
Compositing spec. is the highest on our list.
heycam: later on we will go over the LC comments for the SVG
Compositing spec.
vhardy: I am interested in the SVG work in general and like Rik, in
the compositing and filter efforts. I am also interested in what is
happening in the joint CSS/SVG effects task force.
... I am working on the CSS Regions effort.
heycam: this is related to prior work the SVG working group has done
in that area.
... are you going to join the SVG WG meeting?
cabanier: I am trying to get approval for the trip. It is in
process.
... hopefully I will be able to attend.
vhardy: likewise.
heycam: we would like that Patrick for Microsoft and Dean from Apple
be able to join. However, they have the Apple WWDC conf. in June at
the same time. I am not sure about Patrick's ability to attend. We
are considering moving the meeting to the Bay area.
... so it is still undecided. Doug is trying to find out what can be
done.
... I will send an email to try and find out.
... First agenda topic: 1.1 second edition progress
... I have commited the suggested changes.
... that's for ACTION-2834
... I have made the changes for Brian's animation issues.
ed: I want to mention that I have made minor changes to the
pointer-events section.
<ed_tmp> ed: both related to ACTION-2671 and ISSUE-2364
heycam: the animation issues was from Brian Birtles (Mozilla).
... the deadline for PR publication request is May 6th. I am
concerned about Chris Lilley's action (ACTION-2910)
... is it feasible to try and grap that action from him?
ed: Chris has done some of it. We could try to get it and then
finish the work.
heycam: I sent him an email a while back but did not hear back from
him.
... I will send him an email reminder with the desired publication
date.
ed: If we could get him to check in what he has done so far, we
could take it from there.
anthony: is there a lot of work left?
heycam: not a lot.
... I could complete the work if Chris commits his work.
<scribe> ACTION: heycam to contact Chris about commiting progress on
ACTION-2910. [recorded in
[6]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action01]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3026 - Contact Chris about commiting
progress on ACTION-2910. [on Cameron McCormack - due 2011-05-05].
<heycam>
[7]http://dev.w3.org/SVG/profiles/1.1F2/test/status/implementation_m
atrix.html
[7] http://dev.w3.org/SVG/profiles/1.1F2/test/status/implementation_matrix.html
heycam: at this point, there is some more work to be done on the
final bits of the test suite and the implementation report.
... lets look at the implementation report
ed: we are waiting on getting some font resources from Chris.
<ed_tmp> text-dom-04 / 05
ed: that applies to the text-dom-04 & 05 tests.
... there was a suggestion to split fonts-desc-04 in two tests.
heycam: do we have an action for that?
ed: the wiki page does not have an action list.
... checking on tracker.
heycam: I think we had a plan and actions to address all these
remaining tests.
<heycam> ACTION-2962?
<trackbot> ACTION-2962 -- Chris Lilley to convert fonts-desc-04-t.
and 05-t to use WOFF -- due 2011-03-06 -- OPEN
<trackbot> [8]http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/track/actions/2962
[8] http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/track/actions/2962
<ed_tmp> ACTION-2965?
<trackbot> ACTION-2965 -- Chris Lilley to make a WOFF font for
text-dom-04-f.html -- due 2011-03-06 -- OPEN
<trackbot> [9]http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/track/actions/2965
[9] http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/track/actions/2965
heycam: for the font tests, I thought that Chris was trying to get
the WOF font sorted out first.
... we should try to resolve these issues before publication and
drop the corresponding tests if we cannot.
... two implementations are needed to enter PR.
(discussion on whether the tests should be removed or if the spec.
should be removed).
tbah: filters-light-03-f has one pass and one partial pass. I can
get Inkscape to pass the test.
heycam: I am hopefull that Mozilla could pass. We have a patch but
it has not landed yet (not in the public builds).
ed: I have seen it pass in mozilla dev builds (at the last f2f). I
am not sure it needs to be public.
heycam: this is reasonnable if we can explain it has been seen and
that it will become available publicly in a reasonnable timeframe.
... we could also mark that it works in an internal build.
ed: yes, a disclaimer or note is fine, like we did for the Opera
build.
<scribe> ACTION: heycam to try and get the Mozilla patch for
filters-light-03-f to become publicly available or, if not possible,
add a note to the implementation table. [recorded in
[10]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action02]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3027 - Try and get the Mozilla patch for
filters-light-03-f to become publicly available or, if not possible,
add a note to the implementation table. [on Cameron McCormack - due
2011-05-05].
heycam: painting-render-02 is ok, because we also tested it on ASV.
So the two implementations are ASV and Abra.
... text-dom-04 and 05. The 05 is checking the SVG strings methods.
I am surprised this does not pass.
... text-dom-04.
ed: I wrote it. This was checking SVG DOM methods for measuring
text. It would be good to have WOF fonts for the test. Pending on
Chris to check in the font.
... I could take the action from him to make it work.
heycam: you think it may work with a WOFF font instead of an SVG
font?
ed: yes
... 04 is testing getSubstringLength with different values and
checking exceptions.
... 05 is testing a couple different DOM methods, passing an index
to retrieve a string.
... I will take the action from Chris to get a WOFF font for
text-dom-04.
... I already reassigned ACTION-2965
<scribe> ACTION: heycam to investigate how to fix text-dom-05.
[recorded in
[11]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action03]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3028 - Investigate how to fix text-dom-05.
[on Cameron McCormack - due 2011-05-05].
heycam: there is no pass at the moment.
... there is a partial pass on Opera.
<ed_tmp> partial in ie9 too
heycam: I think this test could be dropped if we could not fix it.
ed: I would be ok to drop it too.
heycam: text-dom-05 tests edge cases.
... text-intro-02
ed: multiple implementations have problems on the 3rd line.
... it is pretty close to passing on WebKit
heycam: are you satisfied with the test.
ed: I would like to hear about what WebKit thinks of that test.
<scribe> ACTION: ed to contact the WebKit team about text-intro-02,
probably Dirk. [recorded in
[12]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action04]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3029 - Contact the WebKit team about
text-intro-02, probably Dirk. [on Erik Dahlström - due 2011-05-05].
<ed_tmp> Dirk Schulze
heycam: text-intro-09 is similar with a different font, WOFF font
and system font.
ed: I'll mention both tests.
heycam: these BiDi tests are important to have.
... it would be good to keep them in the test suite.
... that's all for the test suite.
ed: there are a couple lines that a few 'unknowns'. Please update
your implementation report if you can.
... It would make the table a bit nicer.
heycam: I'll make another run through it.
<scribe> ACTION: vhardy to style the implementation report.
[recorded in
[13]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action05]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3030 - Style the implementation report.
[on Vincent Hardy - due 2011-05-05].
heycam: In the worst case, if these test cases cannot be made to
pass, are there objections to remove them from the report.
vhardy: is it an option to go through the transition call with tests
that we know are correct and implementable but do not have a pass.
heycam: we have dropped a few tests already.
... the remaining ones, I think could be dropped without hurting the
spec.
... ok, no objection to drop the tests that do not have two
implementations if need be.
<scribe> ACTION: heycam to check with Doug and Chris about keeping a
few tests that are implementable and correct but do not have two
full passing implementations. [recorded in
[14]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action06]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3031 - Check with Doug and Chris about
keeping a few tests that are implementable and correct but do not
have two full passing implementations. [on Cameron McCormack - due
2011-05-05].
heycam: SVG Compositing last call comments.
anthony: the LC period for compositing ended on the 14th. So far, we
have had two comments come in. One from Tab Atkins at Google and the
other from Rik Cabanier.
... I think that Tab was ok with the responses on the email
discussion. We did not give an official WG response.
... Rik recommended to split things apart. This would be a bit of
work. I do not see any reason to take some drastic action.
heycam: Do you have a link to the discussion.
<anthony>
[15]http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-svg/2011Apr/0041.html
[15] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-svg/2011Apr/0041.html
anthony: Tab suggested renaming the clip-to-self property to
comp-op-region. I agree with that.
... we would keep the same values for the property.
... this was there to have compatibility for Java2D.
heycam: I am happy to have it renamed.
... which implementations do we have?
anthony: ASV3 had an implementation with a different syntax. I am
pretty sure Abra implements this.
... Alex Danillo is ok with the name change.
... as long as the functionallity is correct, he does not have an
issue with the name.
... regarding enable-background (another comment from Tab), he is
asking to change the example. I agree for the second part.
heycam: yes, more examples would be good.
ed: regarding enable background, do we want to make the
x/y/width/height optional?
anthony: is enable-background still in filters?
ed: it may get deprecated.
anthony: for the optional x/y/width/height, I do not have a strong
feeling?
heycam: Is that an explicit optimization from the author?
anthony: yes.
heycam: so it makes sense to drop it then.
RESOLUTION: clip-to-self is renamed to comp-op-region in the SVG
Compositing specification.
... drop the x/y/width/height parameters from the new value on
enable-background in SVG Compositing specification.
cabanier: do we need inherit on enable-background?
heycam: it is needed for all non-inherited properties.
ed: what do we do if people specify x/y/width/height
anthony: it should be ignored.
cabanier: I think that even if the x/y/width/height are ignored,
then it should not make any difference.
heycam: the parameters should be marked as ignored if present.
<scribe> ACTION: anthony to officially respond to Tab's comments on
SVG Compositing LC. [recorded in
[16]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action07]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3032 - Officially respond to Tab's
comments on SVG Compositing LC. [on Anthony Grasso - due
2011-05-05].
<scribe> ACTION: anthony to rename the clip-to-self property to
comp-op-region. [recorded in
[17]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action08]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3033 - Rename the clip-to-self property to
comp-op-region. [on Anthony Grasso - due 2011-05-05].
<scribe> ACTION: anthony to add a note to enable-background new
value to say that the x/y/width/height values have no effect.
[recorded in
[18]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action09]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3034 - Add a note to enable-background new
value to say that the x/y/width/height values have no effect. [on
Anthony Grasso - due 2011-05-05].
RESOLUTION: document that x/y/widht/height in the new value on
enable-background have no effect.
<scribe> ACTION: vhardy to check with product team that we are not
overlooking issues by dropping the x/y/width/height parameters on
enable-background. [recorded in
[19]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action10]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3035 - Check with product team that we are
not overlooking issues by dropping the x/y/width/height parameters
on enable-background. [on Vincent Hardy - due 2011-05-05].

anthony: Rik sent a response say that we should split Porter Duff
and the blend modes. This was in response to Alex's email.
cabanier: my concern is that Porter Duff blending is different from
the other blending modes. I am affraid this may generate confusion.
For example, the Porter Duff rules are not group invariant.
... If you put the content in a group, then it would render
differently.
<cabanier> <circle><g><circle)(circle pd=clear)(/g) is not equal to
<circle>(circle)(circle pd=clear)
anthony: yes, this is correct
cabanier: in the blending modes, then you do not have that behavior.
... if the background is accumulating.
anthony: I do not understand how this effects the blending. I
thought the blending was just a mathematical operation.
cabanier: it has to do with how enable-background is implemented.
... the default of a group is to accumulate the background. This is
why we get a different behavior.
anthony: I agree that knock-out is not very well defined. If Rik
could provide better wording, that would be awesome.
... I can work at rewording the knock-out section to clarify the
behavior.
cabanier: on the mailing list, I forwarded an article that describes
what it does.
anthony: yes, I saw the link.
<scribe> ACTION: anthony to propose new wording for knock-out.
[recorded in
[21]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action11]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3036 - Propose new wording for knock-out.
[on Anthony Grasso - due 2011-05-05].
anthony: so the request is to separate the blending and the Porter
Duff rules in two separate sections.
RESOLUTION: split the Porter Duff and blending modes into two
separate sections in the document.
<scribe> ACTION: anthony to split the comp-op values into two
sections, Porter Duff and Blending in Section 5 of the Last Call
specification. [recorded in
[22]http://www.w3.org/2011/04/28-svg-minutes.html#action12]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-3037 - Split the comp-op values into two
sections, Porter Duff and Blending in Section 5 of the Last Call
specification. [on Anthony Grasso - due 2011-05-05].
anthony: Rik had another comment about extending the blend modes.
We'll have to discuss this next time.
