- # [08:58] <sbuluf> since then, webpages are not the *only* thing.
- # [08:59] <sbuluf> i want a browseable, normal web. but i also want a *queryable* web. no webpages there.
- # [09:00] <mjs> karl: people who are familiar enough with Web Apps 1.0 / Web Forms 2.0 to give a presentation on it (like anne, hsivonen, Lachy, jgraham, Hixie...)
- # [09:00] <sbuluf> no rdfa either. just links between the two webs.

- # [10:34] <mjs> the volume has slowed to a trickle
- # [10:35] <mjs> I think people are waiting for the chairs to announce whether the resultion favored by a 95-3-4 vote actually passed
- # [10:36] <anne> and then we'll get another 1000
- # [10:37] <mjs> I want to start a discussion on how to do issue tracking
- # [10:37] <mjs> and who will do it
- # [10:37] <mjs> and what requirements there would be for tracking software
- # [10:37] <anne> there seems to be some on www-archive
- # [10:38] <laplink> What's stopping you?
- # [10:38] <anne> well, an e-mail from DanC
- # [10:38] <mjs> issue tracking discussion?
- # [10:38] <jgraham> mjs: Useful discussions that might lead to spec progress are strictly off-topic for public-html, no? ;)
- # [10:38] <anne> mjs, http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/2007May/0046.html
- # [10:38] <laplink> heh heh
- # [10:38] <mjs> laplink: well, if the chairs decide the resolution didn't pass, there are more important orders of business
- # [10:38] <anne> mjs, you're not cc'ed it seems
- # [10:39] <anne> mjs, getting a patent policy for the WHATWG :p
- # [10:39] <laplink> Well, issue tracking will be needed no matter what's decided, non?
- # [10:39] * anne wonders if the chairs will discuss every single vote we have with the directors for the Formal Objections
- # [10:39] <mjs> anne: well, I told DanC it was silly to treat every "no" vote as an FO
- # [10:39] <anne> laplink, I don't think that's clear
- # [10:39] <mjs> but he is insistent about it
- # [10:40] <anne> grmbl
- # [10:40] <laplink> mjs, that's because, afaict, the Process requires it.
- # [10:40] <mjs> laplink: if we come out of the vote with no spec and no editors, then I will try to change that fact, and failing that, will put my effort into something more useful than the html wg
- # [10:40] <anne> well, if he believes we can make progress his way...
- # [10:40] <mjs> laplink: I don't believe it does, in fact I believe treating the votes that way violates the Process
- # [10:40] <laplink> And for the record, I also asked him about some decent way to indicate dissent without going to full out FO.
- # [10:40] <anne> laplink, the process doesn't
- # [10:41] <mjs> laplink: a Formal objection is an objection to a *decision*, not to a *proposal*
- # [10:41] <mjs> if you vote some way on a proposal and don't like the result, *then* you may register a Formal Objection
- # [10:41] * anne wonders who laplink is
- # [10:41] <mjs> (or even if you didn't vote)
- # [10:41] <mjs> also, no other WG treats "no" votes that way
- # [10:41] * laplink == xover (travelling)
- # [10:42] <mjs> laplink: I think part of the problem with the "every no is an FO" system is that it stifles dissent
- # [10:42] <laplink> mjs, I'm inclined to agree; at least in general.
- # [10:42] <mjs> people feel bad about disagreeing with the group because it could stop work
- # [10:42] <laplink> Yeah, my feeling exactly.
- # [10:42] <mjs> I would rather have an honest vote and then people agree to move on than a forced artificial consensus
- # [10:43] <anne> DanC said those people would have to abstain and say in the comments they disagreed or something... which seems kind of weird to me
- # [10:43] <mjs> (or if someone is unwilling to move on after the vote, then we can reconsider the issue)
- # [10:43] <anne> Other groups let you say no and also let you formally object to moving something to LC or CR or something similar
- # [10:44] <anne> But you don't formall object during a vote typically
- # [10:44] <laplink> Well, this way of doing things will also tend to put more pressure on the Chairs.
- # [10:44] <mjs> my way of thinking about it is that formal objections should be a rare exception to the process
- # [10:44] <mjs> and also that getting 100% agreement before every decision is impossible
- # [10:44] * anne thinks the chairs could use some more pressure
- # [10:44] <anne> it may well be that they're very active behind the scenes but it certainly doesn't feel that way
- # [10:45] <anne> wouldn't chairs invest like 50% of their time or something in the WG?
- # [10:45] <mjs> even the staff contacts should be doing that
- # [10:45] <mjs> (50%)
- # [10:46] <laplink> I think the Chairs are 1-2 days/week.
- # [10:46] <laplink> The Staff Contact 50%.
- # [10:46] <laplink> It should be in the Charter or thereabouts.
- # [10:47] <mjs> both those things are in the charter
- # [10:47] <laplink> But note that, IIRC, WWW2007 is running this week so that might be getting in the way.

- # [10:52] <laplink> Well, it's possible they're trying out a hands-off approach to guiding the process/discussions/etc.
- # [10:53] <anne> The impression I got from DanC is that he's only willing to make a point once
- # [10:53] * Joins: mjs (mjs@64.81.48.145)
- # [10:54] <laplink> Well, he mentioned deliberately sending few messages to the list on the teory that people would then pay more attention to them.

- # [23:34] <MikeSmith> DanC_lap (and others) - join #www2007 on Freenode
- # [23:34] <MikeSmith> irc.freenode.net
- # [23:34] <DanC_lap> the HTML WG has just made its 1st decision. woohoo.
- # [23:34] <mjs> hello DanC_lap
- # [23:35] <MikeSmith> session on "Future of HTML" at WWW 2007 is starting now
- # [23:35] * DanC_lap can't seem to join #www2007 on freenode; not sure why not yet
- # [23:35] <MikeSmith> we will be heckling on #www2007 on irc.freenode.net

- # [23:43] <zcorpan_> "As Dan is travelling this week, and we don't have issue tracking tools in place just yet, we suggest taking the rest of week off from HTML WG email discussion." so the list has been disabled today? that's why it's so quiet?
- # [23:46] <mjs> I think the quiet is voluntary
- # [23:46] <mjs> I was going to start a thread about issue tracking but I guess I'll wait
- # [23:47] <DanC_lap> there's some www-archive discussion of issue tracking
- # [23:47] <DanC_lap> if you think you can manage the thread, mjs, I don't mind if you take it to www-archive.
- # [23:47] <DanC_lap> I'm pretty much resigned that we'll use bugzilla
- # [23:49] <Philip`> I kind of like Trac because it looks less ugly than Bugzilla, but I have no idea if it'd work for the process here
- # [23:49] <mjs> I wouldn't mind bugzilla if it was feasible to hook it up to the mailing list in some way (so emails mentioning an issue number get linked to the issue automatically)
- # [23:49] <Philip`> (Does Bugzilla still have that horrible electron-microscope picture by default?)
- # [23:49] <mjs> I was just going to send an email on what I think we want out of issue tracking software
- # [23:50] <mjs> I don't actually have a specific solution in mind
- # [23:51] <hsivonen> Bugzilla sounds good
- # Session Close: Thu May 10 00:00:00 2007
The end :)
