- # [00:27] <zewt> because it's impossible to eliminate the irony from that statement :P
- # [00:30] <annevk> tantek: you might not know they made a restrictive fork
- # [00:31] <annevk> tantek: only the parts Hixie originally wrote are under the permissive license
- # [00:31] <annevk> which is fine in a way, but since that is now the only copy being developed further...
- # [00:31] <zewt> it basically looks like they're going "allowing forks is bad, watch, we'll show you why"
- # [00:33] <zewt> personally i've come to hate the GPL and use permissive licenses for all of my own open source work, so that sort of thing irritates me in another way (encourages people to use restrictive licenses like the GPL)
- # [00:33] <tantek> zewt, yeah

- # [00:34] <Hixie> GPL isn't have as restrictive as the license they used here, fwiw
- # [00:34] <zewt> it isn't restrictive compared to proprietary licenses, but it's very restrictive as an open source license

- # [00:38] <tantek> …and I've used up my "arguing with people on the internet" time quota for today: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-css-wg/2011OctDec/0242.html (wasted on member-only space at that :( )
- # [00:38] <tantek> per xkcd.com/386
- # [00:38] <tantek> back to answering #microformats questions.
- # [00:39] <Hixie> two e-mails is your quota? man, you're stingy
- # [00:39] <Hixie> :-P
- # [00:40] <Hixie> tantek: in other news, you heard anything from the chairs about <time> recently?
- # [00:40] <tantek> I think we're still on W3C Thanksgiving break
- # [00:41] <tantek> or so I thought per https://twitter.com/glazou/status/141273910976069632 ;)
- # [00:41] <tantek> Hixie, in all seriousness I was going to ping the public-html list again for people who still have questions/objections to my change proposals, in the hopes of adding more explanation to help convince folks.
- # [00:41] <Hixie> is there anyone not convinced?
- # [00:42] <tantek> since Sam has requested that I work on building more consensus before calling for consensus on the change proposals
- # [00:42] <Hixie> o...k
- # [00:42] <tantek> yeah
- # [00:42] <annevk> I think there was at least one person who wanted to keep pubdate or some such
- # [00:42] <Hixie> ah ok
- # [00:42] <tantek> last I saw there was someone with a counter proposal for a global "content" attribute
- # [00:42] <tantek> annevk - yes I need to debunk that email
- # [00:42] <tantek> / blog post
- # [00:43] <tantek> there are people that hypothetically want pubdate but don't seem to have used it in practice
- # [00:43] <Hixie> oh lordy, that's all we need
- # [00:43] <Hixie> a global attribute for this
- # [00:43] <annevk> oh
- # [00:43] <annevk> http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/ still says November 4
- # [00:43] <tantek> in practical use, any use of pubdate is supersetted with hAtom
- # [00:43] <tantek> e.g. Readability.com parsing/consuming
- # [00:44] * Quits: cpearce (~chatzilla@60.234.54.74) (Ping timeout: 255 seconds)
- # [00:44] <tantek> pubdate by itself has only been "theoretically" useful, not actually
- # [00:45] <tantek> so that's fine, just need to add more FAQs to the change proposals
- # [00:46] <tantek> which is probably a good thing - will hopefully help avert people walking down the same mistaken paths again sometime in the future when context has been forgotten
- # [00:46] <Hixie> annevk: yeah, the revert caused a conflict (unsurprisingly), and rather than spend the hours it would take to fix that, i have just made the <time> proposal and stopped doing work on html
- # [00:46] <Hixie> annevk: since i have a ton of work on WebVTT and other specs to do instead, it's not a big deal
- # [00:47] * tantek waits for someone to contact WebMonkey to update everyone on the drama. ;)
- # [00:47] <Hixie> tantek: yeah, in practice the expected consumers of pubdate -- namely, search engines -- have used schema.org and microformats instead
- # [00:47] <Hixie> tantek: so not much point having pubdate=""...
- # [00:47] <Hixie> annevk: i didn't expect it would take quite so long for the chairs to move on the <time> issue though, given how urgently they wanted it reverted
- # [00:48] <annevk> ironyfreezone
- # [00:49] <annevk> anyway, nn, been a long day :)
- # [00:49] <Hixie> nn :-)
- # [00:50] <necolas> Hixie: am i correct in saying that this is not an option? http://ikelewis.com/the-future.html (the "test" is flawed anyway)
- # [00:51] <Hixie> an option?
- # [00:52] <necolas> as in, can <img> be repurposed like that in theory?
- # [00:53] <necolas> iirc, i was previously told it could not be
- # [00:58] * Joins: danbri (~danbri@cable-146-255-152-131.dynamic.telemach.ba)
- # [01:02] <Hixie> <img> parsing is pretty much a lost cause, but we can probably do something else to solve the same use case
- # [01:02] <Hixie> <img> used to have a lowsrc="" attribute
- # [01:02] <Hixie> not many people used it though so we dropped it
- # [01:03] <Hixie> so before readding it or something like it, we'd need to have evidence that people actually want this solved this time :-)
- # [01:05] * Joins: cpearce (~chatzilla@ip-118-90-36-154.xdsl.xnet.co.nz)
- # [01:06] <necolas> Hixie: that's what i thought w.r.t. <img> and wanted to confirm it before people took it too seriously. there is interest in solving the "responsive image" problem, but it's not clear if something like <video> for images (+ use of 'media' attribute) is a good solution. thanks :)

- # [22:35] <roc> Microsoft tends to not submit tests that they don't pass
- # [22:36] <jgraham> It is also true that they often pass tests that they have written. Or do well in benchmarks they have written. This is not really surprising. In general be very worried about attaching too much weight to single-vendor tests of any kind. Or any tests really. But at least if it is something where multiple people have independly contributed to there is a hope it won't suck
- # [22:36] <dbaron> roc, neither does any browser vendor other than Mozilla, I think
- # [22:36] <roc> the fairest way to interpret their test results is to compare the non-IE browsers against each other and ignore the IE results :-)
- # [22:37] <gsnedders> dbaron: We release tests we fail… along with a greater number we pass. :)
- # [22:37] <jgraham> We have even been known to release whole testsuites we do badly at (XHR2)
- # [22:38] <gsnedders> Well, we did equally badly when we released that, no?

- # [22:38] <gsnedders> It's just others improved more quickly than us. :P
- # [22:39] <jgraham> gsnedders: I don't think so. But I might be wrong.
- # [22:39] <astearns> I've been submitting tests that both WebKit and IE fail, but should pass soon :)
- # [22:39] * jgraham is generally more upset by crappy performance tests than crappy regression tests because they seem to have more PR value

- # [22:42] <jgraham> 15:36 < jgraham> Well yeah, Peacekeper is just very buggy

- # [23:27] <annevk> gavinc: the problem is giving people time to comment, that's great
- # [23:28] <annevk> gavinc: the problem is having an unmaintained forked draft
- # [23:28] <annevk> I'm missing a "not" in that first sentence :)
- # [23:29] <karlcow> annevk: I'm pretty the Web will survive :)
- # [23:29] <timeless> annevk: unmaintained drafts, oh my!
- # [23:29] <timeless> wait, doesn't that describe 10-15 years of w3 docs?
- # [23:29] <karlcow> I have been watching for 20 years its soap-opera. It will survive for a few weeks, months even
- # [23:30] <karlcow> hurricane in teapots
- # [23:30] <gavinc> So the W3C is making itself irrelevant by having forked the WHATWG HTML document in order to revert an element that that WHATWG added back after taking a few days to consider having removed it.
- # [23:31] <annevk> karlcow: there's always things that will outlast other things
- # [23:31] <jgraham> gavinc: That seems to be an inaccurate summary of the situation, yes
- # [23:32] <annevk> karlcow: you are probably right that this does not matter much
- # [23:33] <annevk> karlcow: at least we are past the point where if I said "specification" on my weblog I would get a lengthy public personal letter from someone
- # [23:33] <gavinc> annevk: but a good chance to bash the W3C can't go wasted
- # [23:33] <gsnedders> TabAtkins: Is it a goal of selectors to be able to do something like //*[substring(., 0, 4) == "this"] or //comment()?
- # [23:33] <annevk> gavinc: I did not bash the W3C
- # [23:34] <annevk> gavinc: I am somewhat upset by the not caring of the HTML WG co-chairs
- # [23:34] <annevk> gavinc: and them not giving any indication they are doing something here
- # [23:34] <othermaciej> we do care
- # [23:34] <annevk> gavinc: or communicating about the problem
- # [23:34] <othermaciej> and will do something
- # [23:34] <annevk> hey othermaciej :) sweet
- # [23:34] <othermaciej> though I'm honestly unable to predict what
- # [23:34] <annevk> heh
- # [23:36] <TabAtkins> gsnedders: The first selects all elements with names beginning with "this", right?
- # [23:37] <jgraham> gsnedders: I don't think anyone is seriously arguing that selectors will ever be as powerful as XPath
- # [23:37] <TabAtkins> gsnedders: Almost certainly not. JS can do the former just as easily, and comment nodes are mostly irrelevant.
- # [23:37] <jgraham> The only discussion is whether it is worth adding API for that extra power
- # [23:37] <TabAtkins> jgraham: I seriously argue that they're basically identical in power, especially when combined with JS and NodeArray or whatever.
- # [23:38] <jgraham> TabAtkins: In that case I claim that DOM is just as powerful and selectos are unnecessary
- # [23:38] <annevk> fwiw, unlike Selectors, XPath can select text nodes, attribute nodes, and things like that
- # [23:39] <gavinc> fragments of text nodes too
- # [23:39] <jgraham> Right, XPath is clearly theoretically better than selectors.
- # [23:39] <annevk> if "better" means it can do more
- # [23:40] <gsnedders> TabAtkins: No, names whose textContent begins with this
- # [23:40] <zewt> more widely-known, i'd expect, which is a plus in and of itself
- # [23:40] <annevk> but it would be interesting to see how often XPath is used today and how much convenience APIs have been created for it
- # [23:40] <gsnedders> TabAtkins: That argument applies to selectors too.
- # [23:40] <gsnedders> TabAtkins: (that it can just be done in JS)
- # [23:40] <zewt> i've used it, though mostly just for local greasemonkey scripts; never really had a need for pages i've authored myself
- # [23:41] <zewt> and for xml stuff, of course, though not for a long time
- # [23:41] <gavinc> TabAtkins: In fact plenty of sites still use @style and JS to do styling
- # [23:41] <gsnedders> JS is Turing complete, so you can do, any processing you want of data you have access to.
- # [23:41] <zewt> (actually, not that long, now that I think about it)
- # [23:41] <jgraham> "Better" means something like "has been designed with a small number of ideas that work with the whole DOM data model"
- # [23:41] <zewt> (i know nothing at all about selectors)
- # [23:42] <gsnedders> Anolis certainly used to use XPath for things that don't work with CSS Selectors.
- # [23:42] <jgraham> Whereas selectors has celarly just been made up as people went along to solve CSS use cases
- # [23:42] <jgraham> *clearly
- # [23:42] <zewt> (is that just the name for css matching?)
- # [23:42] <gsnedders> (It didn't use CSS Selectors at all, because in lxml they're just compiled to XPath, so there's little gain, just cost)
- # [23:42] <zewt> (i abuse parentheses)
- # [23:42] <jgraham> zewt: Yeah
- # [23:42] <zewt> gotcha
- # [23:42] <jgraham> (you do)
- # [23:42] <zewt> heh
- # [23:43] <gavinc> systems for crawling the public web use xpath a fair amount. Not a browser UA, but still a UA.
- # [23:43] <timeless> that reminds me, i should pick up one of the other specs and review it
- # [23:43] * timeless gets distracted by chasing credit cards and bills
- # [23:43] <zewt> yeah, i use it for finding random nodes for gm scripts pretty often (but that's not a use case for a web api)
- # [23:44] <annevk> gavinc: but not really relevant for developing browser-based APIs
- # [23:44] <timeless> anyone here ever ask United Airlines for a duplicate of a receipt for an extra baggage fee?
- # [23:44] <zewt> timeless: i might ask such a thing if i want to see a blank, bewildered stare
- # [23:44] <jgraham> I use XPath all the time with html5lib + lxml but again tht's not quite the web use case
- # [23:44] <timeless> zewt: it's blocking a >1000$ reimbursement
- # [23:45] <timeless> the fee was 25%
- # [23:45] <timeless> s/%/$/

- # [23:46] * gsnedders thinks unless browsers are going to drop XSLT and the existing DOM Level n XPath impls, we may as well have a clean API for it
- # [23:46] <jgraham> I tend to agree
- # [23:46] <jgraham> Which never happens :)
- # [23:46] <jgraham> Although I don't include XSLT in my argument
- # [23:47] <jgraham> Because, ugh
- # [23:47] <gsnedders> jgraham: Well, we can't drop XPath and not XSLT.
- # [23:47] <zewt> i tend to find css selectors for the common cases more readable; but that's probably because when i use xpath, it's generally for more complex cases anyway
- # [23:47] <jgraham> zewt: I think it is generally agreed that for simple cases selectors are more readable
- # [23:48] <jgraham> foo.bar is better than //foo[@class='bar']
- # [23:48] <jgraham> (and that isn't even right)
- # [23:48] <zewt> also, i've never tried using css selectors for GM scripts; i probably should
- # [23:49] <TabAtkins> gsnedders: Ah, in that case, maybe. Selectors based on text content have been rejected as too slow for CSS, but if we do a "batch processors profile" of Selectors, it's perfectly reasonable.
- # [23:49] <zewt> yeah, i have to check references a lot with xpath, which IMO implies a poor design (also because I don't use it often enough, but even so)
- # [23:50] <gavinc> can selectors select positionally? //foo[42] I know I never have but not sure I haven't
- # [23:50] <TabAtkins> gsnedders: I don't think "You dont' need Selectors at all if you have JS" is a reasonable argument.
- # [23:50] <TabAtkins> gavinc: Yes, but in a different way than XPath does.
- # [23:50] <gavinc> TabAtkins: nth child stuff? yeah okay
- # [23:50] <TabAtkins> gavinc: Selectors can select based on index among siblings. XPath selects based on document-order index in the current context nodeset.
- # [23:51] <gavinc> TabAtkins: Which is often the parent and thus often the same
- # [23:51] <gavinc> TabAtkins: Yeah
- # [23:51] <TabAtkins> gavinc: However, with JS involved (which is the context we care about here), it's just "document.find('foo')[42]"
- # [23:51] <annevk> and Selectors ignores non-elements
- # [23:51] <TabAtkins> Or rather, findAll.
- # [23:52] <jgraham> (kind of sucks if you don't want to create and destroy a big array of elements though)
- # [23:53] <jgraham> document.selectSingleNode("//foo[42]") avoids that
- # [23:53] <TabAtkins> A little bit, sure. I don't know if it's a big deal. The fact that map() and filter() are separate functions also sometimes means you're creating intermediaries.
- # [23:53] <TabAtkins> But that's good enough for most functional languages.
- # [23:53] <zewt> python has spoiled me against the grossness of map and filter functions
- # [23:54] <TabAtkins> I'll admit, list comprehensions are awesome.
- # [23:54] <gavinc> Personally I know I would have used XPath in the browser more with a better API. But then the back end was often XML
- # [23:54] <TabAtkins> And I'm excited to get them in JS.
- # [23:54] <zewt> (list comprehensions and generator expressions)
- # [23:54] <jgraham> Anyway, I am quite skeptical that the line in the sand between "what I should have to write js for" and "what I can use a DSL for" is "what selectors can do"
- # [23:54] <gavinc> Didn't use CSS selectors much in JS till JQuery either
- # [23:54] <timeless> and i'm expecting them to ask me for 25$ for the receipt
- # [23:55] <jgraham> timeless: Sucks to be you...
- # [23:55] <TabAtkins> jgraham: Sure. But I don't think the answer for "the line is misdrawn" is "support a new language with a different syntax but 95% the same functionality"
- # [23:55] <karlcow> is there an implementation of selectors in python.
- # [23:55] <jgraham> TabAtkins: It's not "support a new language" though
- # [23:55] * karlcow is using a lot XPath in my scripts
- # [23:55] <jgraham> karlcow: Yeah lxml has one
- # [23:55] <gavinc> karlcow: It compiles XPaths ;)
- # [23:55] <jgraham> But just using xpath is easier
- # [23:55] <TabAtkins> gavinc: Yeah, jQuery made Selectors-in-JS popular, paving the way for querySelector and now find.
- # [23:55] <paul_irish> hey #whatwg.. friends and i are working on a site to launch tomorrow that's all about getting more developer/author involvement in standards & browser development... http://h5bp.github.com/igotmybeanie/ would love any feedback you have. areas where the content is a little WTF or could use more detail..
- # [23:55] <karlcow> ahah
- # [23:56] <gavinc> TabAtkins: I do remember however wishing that jQuery had also implemented XPath selectors :\
- # [23:56] <jgraham> Apparenty it did at one point
- # [23:56] <TabAtkins> jgraham: XPath is a new language for most devs. If qSA had never existed, it would still probably be a bad idea to have XPath selectors in JS and Selectors selectors in CSS, again because of the 95% overlap.
- # [23:56] <TabAtkins> gavinc: They did. Then they removed it because nobody used it.
- # [23:57] <gavinc> MMm, no, it didn't do math, nor work with context
- # [23:57] <gavinc> Looked like XPath, wasn't. At least that's my memory
- # [23:57] <TabAtkins> gavinc: Oh, ok, yeah. It was a subset.
- # [23:57] <jgraham> TabAtkins: Everything is new to people the first time.
- # [23:57] <jgraham> And the overlap is far from 95%
- # [23:58] <TabAtkins> jgraham: Your first statement is true. Your second statement is arguable.
- # [23:58] * heycam|away is now known as heycam
- # [23:58] <TabAtkins> The vast majority of Selectors usage is trivial tagname/class/id selection, perhaps with a combinator involved, and maybe some :hover.
- # [23:58] * jgraham finds that after you get away from the simple things XPath is relatively OK because the model is clean whereas CSS is a mess
- # [23:58] <gavinc> jgraham: +1
- # [23:58] <jgraham> Right, if people only do trivial things selectors are better
- # [23:58] <TabAtkins> Weighted by usage on the web, the percentage is probably greater than 95%.
- # [23:59] <karlcow> "<TabAtkins> jgraham: XPath is a new language for most devs." HIHI. houhou ahaha. :D I'm going to the toyshop to find webtools for the 5 years old :)
- # [23:59] <jgraham> But it is not clear if people only do trivial things because that's all that is easy with selectors
- # [23:59] <TabAtkins> jgraham: The models are isomorphic.
- # [23:59] <annevk> paul_irish: WHATWG blog also covers W3C WebApps to some extent
- # [23:59] <gavinc> TabAtkins: Weighted by usage on the web there was no need for img ;) metrics will only get you so far
