  46. # 12:26 < anne> zcorpan, have fun in the PFWG :)
  47. # 12:51 < zcorpan> anne: i'll try :)
  48. # 12:54 < anne> if all goes well html-design-principles and access-control will be published today
  49. # 12:54 < zcorpan> cool
  50. # 13:02 < Lachy> awesome. Will HTML5 also be published?
  51. # 13:03 < anne> no, that became pretty clear during the last telcon
  52. # 13:03 < Lachy> ok
  53. # 13:04 < anne> DanC wants to take a few weeks to discuss each feature that is not explicitly mentioned in the charter or something in that direction
  54. # 13:06 < Lachy> it's annoying that there's always something new to delay the process
  55. # 13:09 < Lachy> looks like Selectors API will be going to Last Call soon too. Didn't see any objections raised in the last call for concensus, and today is the deadline
  56. # 13:10 < Lachy> so I guess I'll need to prepare that for publication soon and then find some time to start on the testsuite
  57. # 13:17 < anne> i'd suggest you simply request publication today and negotiate a publication date with webreq
  58. # 13:17 < anne> as i'm done with xhr2 I can do it for you, even
  59. # 13:18 < Lachy> I'll do it later tonight

  95. # 16:56 < Lachy> Woo hoo!
  96. # 16:56 < zcorpan> html wg finally published something? :)
  97. # 16:57 < anne> it's amazing
  98. # 16:57 < zcorpan> we should party
  99. # 16:58 < Lachy> and it's only been 9 months since it started! :-)
  100. # 17:00 < Philip> So the group is following a roughly human lifecycle?
  101. # 17:03 < anne> btw, I'll be arriving in Oslo next Sunday
  102. # 17:03 < anne> and in Sweden around the fourteenth or so, for a day
  103. # 17:04 < Lachy> I'll be in Sweeden on the 14th too

  106. # 17:06 < zcorpan> me too :)
  107. # 17:06 < anne> surprise surprise
  108. # 17:06 < anne> this discussion on html4all should really move elsewhere...
  109. # 17:07 < anne> also, I managed to sneak out http://www.w3.org/TR/access-control/
  110. # 17:09 < Lachy> wow, this is unbelievably complicated UI http://misc.xstandard.com/html4all/dl.gif
  111. # 17:12 < gsnedders> Lachy: the sad thing is I've seen applications with worse UIs than that

  114. # 17:13 < anne> has anyone e-mailed krijnh about the logs?
  115. # 17:13 < Philip> Lachy: Opera's right-click-on-page menu has just as many menu items in it, and it's not that unusable
  116. # 17:15 < Lachy> Philip, I'm well aware of Opera's usability features/problems
  117. # 17:19 < Philip> I don't think that dl.gif is "unbelievably complicated" - it seems fairly easy to see the five main sections and decide which one you want, then narrow down to the individual item
  118. # 17:20 < Philip> If it had twenty totally different labelled items and you had to scan the whole list to find what you wanted, then I'd agree it was unusable :-)
  119. # 17:20 < Lachy> Philip, there are much more intuitive UIs that could be implemented instead of putting everything in a context menu
  120. # 17:21 < Lachy> Like pressing enter inserts a new item, and pressing tab converts it from a dt to dd and shift tab from dd to dt.
  121. # 17:22 < Lachy> And Ctrl+Up/Down arrow could move items or even dragging a handle beside the items
  122. # 17:24 < beowulf> that doesn't sound intuitive
  123. # 17:25 < anne> that's just shortcuts
  124. # 17:26 -!- Lachy [Lachlan@213.236.208.22] has quit [Quit: This computer has gone to sleep]
  125. # 17:26 < beowulf> 'k, shortcuts by nature aren't intuitive though, I'd have thought?
  126. # 17:27 < Philip> You need a menu with all the functions, listing the shortcuts beside them, and then people who use those functions a lot will learn those shortcuts
  127. # 17:32 -!- aroben [aroben@17.203.12.236] has joined #html-wg
  128. # 17:34 < mjs> Philip: menus with that many items are almost always bad just on general principle
  129. # 17:34 < mjs> Philip: especially ones with so many similarly named items
  130. # 17:34 * anne e-mails out a bunch of requests for review on access control for cross-site requests

  161. # 21:23 < anne> maybe not, i can already imagine feature requests coming in for drawing graphs based on it etc.
  162. # 21:24 * Philip was actually going to suggest that, but then thought better of it
  163. # 21:26 < Philip> (since it's not like it'd be useful for anything)
  164. # 21:57 < gsnedders> wowowow! We. actually. have. a. FPWD. <http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/WD-html-design-principles-20071126/>
  165. # 21:58 < anne> unfortunately not of HTML 5 itself
  166. # 22:01 < gsnedders> anne: at least we're only… lost count of how many months late for the heartbeat requirement
  167. # 22:02 < anne> 6
  168. # 22:02 < anne> because apparently we've been running for 9
  169. # 22:03 < gsnedders> only 6?
  170. # 22:03 < anne> which doesn't seem exactly true, but close enough
  171. # 22:03 < gsnedders> not quite as bad as I thought
  172. # 22:03 < anne> also, the count has been reset now we published something
  173. # 22:03 < Lachy> yep, the group started in March
  174. # 22:03 < gsnedders> anne: I know
  175. # 22:03 < gsnedders> how long next time? bets anyone?
  176. # 22:04 < Lachy> so another 3 months of delays before we publish HTML5?
  177. # 22:04 < gsnedders> Lachy: no, the diff document next
  178. # 22:04 < gsnedders> Lachy: spec must be last :P
  179. # 22:04 < anne> we could also publish another design principles
  180. # 22:04 < Lachy> the diff document and spec should be published at the same time
  181. # 22:04 < anne> as far as the process doc is concerned it doesn't matter
  182. # 22:05 < gsnedders> anne: Am I just too hopeful wanting variety?
