    The TAG teleconference of 7 March is cancelled (note, we later
    changed our minds...call is not cancelled for now)

    <annevk> FWIW, WebApps does async-decision making via call for
    consensus on the mailing list.

    <wycats_> there are tools to handle this

    <wycats_> sounds good

    Never mind, there will (tentatively) be a call next week...at
    least we'll hold the time in case we need it.

      [17] http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/2013/01/24-minutes.html#item06

    >> <noah> NM: Notes that Yehuda and Alex favor discussing the
    DOM at the F2F

    NM: Remind me what this is please?

    <annevk> Also: When Alex says DOM he means all APIs not defined
    by TC39, which is a slightly wider definition of DOM than in
    use by W3C.

    YK: I think this is how groups should use DOM...will follow up
    with Alex.

    <trackbot> ACTION-774 -- Peter Linss to frame F2F discussion of

    <trackbot>

      [19] http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/785

    NM: Marcos, would you like to frame this one?

    MC: Hard to do now, we'd need consensus on who audience is for
    TAG materials. Traditionally it's been W3C.

    NM: Hmm. I don't think that's how we've seen it.

    <wycats_> I think he means people who are extremely familiar
    with the standards process

    MC: Seems to me that TAG mailing list has been "usual suspects"
    for many years. It's effectively a W3C community.
    ... We need to branch out more to developer relations
    community.

    <wycats_> I am interested in discussing whether we think this
    is a good role for TAG or whether there are other groups in the
    W3C that can help with this

    <annevk> Does the average developer even know about the TAG?

    <JeniT> I am interested in having F2F time to discuss how we do
    better developer outreach

    <annevk> With the elections most of my friends were like wut?!

    <wycats_> noah: I think it's possible that there may be
    controversy over how much of a direct role TAG should take in
    the developer outreach

    <wycats_> as opposed to the TAG thinking about ways to make the
    W3C as a whole more effective at it

    <_noah> Yehuda, if you're trying to paraphrase me, that's not
    my position at all. I'm totally in favor of more outreach. I'm
    giving a heads up that we've sometimes struggled with
    logistics. E.g. several proposals to co-locate w/developer
    conferences failed because nobody would buy us a meeting room

    NM: What can we actually do at the meeting?

    MC: A lot depends on working on things that matter.

    <wycats_> it sounds like an open discussion item

    <JeniT> unstructured discussion is better than nothing

    NM: How to prep F2F?

    MC: I think working on the right items is critical. No
    particular ideas on F2F prep.

    <wycats_> this sounds like the discussion we should be having
    f2f

    NM: OK, we'll just pick it up at F2F

    ACTION-782?

    <trackbot> ACTION-782 -- Noah Mendelsohn to schedule F2F
    discussion of polyglot, the TAG's request to HTML WG on
    polygot, and HTML/XML Unification -- due 2013-03-01 -- OPEN

    <trackbot>
    [20]http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/782

      [20] http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/782

    <wycats_> noah: one item I don't see on here is coordination
    with ECMA

    <wycats_> and TC39

    <wycats_> sounds good to me

    NM: Does anyone want to frame a balanced intro to this one?

    AVK: Hasn't everything been said on the mailing list?

    <wycats_> I would like to discuss that

    <wycats_> JeniT: indeed

    <wycats_> I believe that we need f2f time to discuss changing
    the official stance of TAG

    <wycats_> that is the agenda item

    NM: I assumed people wanted to discuss having the TAG change
    it's position.

      [21] http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/2013/01/24-minutes.html#item10

    NM: The F2F discussion was requested on 24 January
    ... by Yehuda

    YK: Yes, I think we need to get "old" and "new" TAG members in
    sync

    <ht> I have not had the time to assemble a satisfactory email
    on Polyglot, but would like to participate in a f2f discussion

    <ht> yes please

    HT: Try to schedule polyglot when I can call

    <JeniT> I agree that there's probably a core disagreement here,
    and we should try to get down to it

    <plinss> zakim. this is tag

    <JeniT> slightlylate has been researching it

    <JeniT> so perhaps he would be in a good position to do some
    prep

    NM: OK, I'll take this offline, will check with Alex, Yehuda
    and Henry among others

    ACTION-781?

    <trackbot> ACTION-781 -- Jeni Tennison to prepare reading and
    discussion on Defining URIS (ISSUE-57) for March F2F -- due

    come, can you help me frame this.

    MC: Haven't reached Alex yet. Will chase him down and put
    something together.

    please, since you and Alex may not be there?
