  305. # [09:59] <smedero> CW: It might be nice though to have these comments inline with the spec
  306. # [09:59] <DanC_lap> Lachy, is the namespace name observable from tests without using the application/xhtml-xml mime type?
  307. # [10:00] <Lachy> yes
  308. # [10:00] <zcorpan> alert(document.body.namespaceURI)
  309. # [10:00] <DanC_lap> ok. whew. thought I was confused.
  310. # [10:00] <Lachy> if we were to use a different namespace for the HTML serialisation from the XHTML serialisation, then that would create problems
  311. # [10:00] <Lachy> and we cannot get away with using a different namespace for XHTML
  312. # [10:01] * myakura thinks if reusing 1999/xhtml is not a good practice, then xhtml2 should change its namespace too
  313. # [10:01] <DanC_lap> seems worthwhile, to me, to capture that constraint in a test case. here's hoping.
  314. # [10:01] <zcorpan> switching namespace is as much of a non-starter as switching all the tag names. in fact it's basically the same thing

  319. # [10:04] <smedero> DanC: It is not objective, the conformance requirements depend on the mood of the author
  320. # [10:04] <smedero> CW: I understand what you are saying, I might put it a different way
  321. # [10:04] <zcorpan> at least if you switch all the tag names you still keep the HTMLElement interface (so class and style etc still work). if you switch the namespace it's just Element (only xml:lang etc works)
  322. # [10:05] <smedero> ... you should raise the issue if you like

  650. # [11:53] <DanC_lap> +timbl
  651. # [11:53] * Zakim wonders where timbl is
  652. # [11:53] <cshelly> Hixie: agree in pricipal, may be hard in javascript

  654. # [11:54] <anne> Zakim, in the room
  655. # [11:54] <Zakim> I don't understand 'in the room', anne
  656. # [11:54] <cshelly> timbl: document.write is much worse, not adding to the DOM
  657. # [11:55] <cshelly> timbl: spec that whateve you put in there should correspond to a piece of DOM
  658. # [11:55] <cshelly> hixie: timbl means something that is well formed and wouldn't throw a parse error

  660. # [11:55] <pimpbot> Title: ISSUE-1 - XHTML2 Working Group Tracker (at www.w3.org)
  661. # [11:57] <cshelly> Murray: preamble: 2 years ago I was here and teh problem was social: tension btwn XML and HTML communities. GRDDL bridges the gap.
  662. # [11:57] <cshelly> Murray: in this meeting I see that there is a big social problem btwn HTML WG and the rest of hte world
  663. # [11:58] * marcos 1min....
  664. # [11:58] <cshelly> here is an opportunity for Semantic Web community to help HTML WG.
  665. # [11:58] <cshelly> problem is visibility to what is happening, how to track, etc.
  666. # [11:58] <cshelly> other big problem is lack of resources for editing, providing technical assistance, et.
  667. # [11:59] <cshelly> Semantic Web part of w3c all about how to relate data and such
  668. # [11:59] * DanC_lap struggles to keep from telling stories out of school... when this WG was proposed, I asked for lots more resources to set up collaboration tools, but didn't get it.
  669. # [11:59] * marcos 3mins
  670. # [12:00] <cshelly> other social problem is that w3c has spent lots of resources on semantic web but there aren't real world uses that have been implemented
  671. # [12:00] <cshelly> can't wrap my brain around why Tim is havign problems with HTML, and why HTML 5 is having problems with XML
  672. # [12:00] * Quits: zcorpan (zcorpan@79.138.32.15) (Connection reset by peer)
  673. # [12:01] <cshelly> quite a few members of HTML 5 WG have deep knowledge of XML and understand problems it has for the things people and browsers want to do with HTML
  674. # [12:01] <cshelly> quite a few XML people willing to accept that feedback
  675. # [12:01] <cshelly> technologies shoudl work together
  676. # [12:02] * marcos 5mins
  677. # [12:02] <cshelly> want to put out there the idea of havign the rest of w3c community help the HTML WG work in a way that helps the process and visibility work without interferring with how HTML WG does its job
  678. # [12:02] * Joins: zcorpan (zcorpan@79.138.32.15)
  679. # [12:02] * CWilso marcos - not actually helpful. I have a watch, and am paying attention.
  680. # [12:03] * gsnedders wonders how many people here don't have a watch
  681. # [12:03] <cshelly> tim you have all these resources on Semantic Web, can we improve the status annotation on the HTML 5 draft? Hixie has defined some things, but could be expanded. Would be really useful in all w3c specs
  682. # [12:03] * karl didn't wear a watch for 10 years, but I have a laptop.
  683. # [12:03] <cshelly> we're having process problems in this group, and in all groups.
  684. # [12:04] <cshelly> Marcos: its not the tools, its the people
  685. # [12:04] <cshelly> Marcos: could be doing it on paper
  686. # [12:04] <cshelly> Murray: lots of resources applied to semantic web, seems that w3c applying semantic web resources to creating some tools...
  687. # [12:05] <cshelly> Timbl: in semantic web area, people are developing specs. don't have grad students looking for work.
  688. # [12:05] <cshelly> timbl: I can understand an argument for moving resources from Semantic Web to HTML.
  689. # [12:06] <cshelly> timbl: another adjustment you could talk about is to have a concerted tools effort instead of human cycles
  690. # [12:06] <cshelly> timbl: expanding this tool might be useful
  691. # [12:06] <cshelly> timbl: neither semantic web nor tools is magic. people still need to do the work.
  692. # [12:07] <cshelly> timbl: allowing people to extend this so people can mark what's implementation, what's authoring, allowing crowdsourcing
  693. # [12:07] * karl notices whatever tool you built in a geek community, the geek+1 will create the n+1 version of the tool, because he/she will not be satisfied
  694. # [12:07] <cshelly> Dan: I asked for these tools when the WG was set up

  775. # [12:28] * Julian we're again stuck in details
  776. # [12:29] <MikeSmith> gsnedders: it needs to make clear what's expected of the person reading it
  777. # [12:29] <MikeSmith> Lachy: it does provide that information
  778. # [12:30] <MikeSmith> karl: so who do you think should read the document?
  779. # [12:30] <MikeSmith> gsnedders: I think it should be something you could learn HTML from, without having [too much] prior knowledge.
  780. # [12:31] <MikeSmith> karl: I think we should not focus too much on the Introduction.. I think we share the same goals, but we need to get to the meat first.

  913. # [14:22] <anne> HS: are we considering header level implementation part of the <section> section?
  914. # [14:23] <anne> IH, MS: different section, so no
  915. # [14:26] <anne> AvK: headings and sections is not really desirable to implement because styling is not addressed
  916. # [14:26] <anne> DB: CSS also needs changes for CSS counters and user agent style sheets will need changes for sizes
  917. # [14:26] <anne> HS: has the CSS WG looked into that?
  918. # [14:27] <anne> DB: no, but I have sort of a mental action item to look into that

  923. # [14:32] <anne> IH: yes
  924. # [14:33] <anne> IH: we're screwed either way
  925. # [14:33] * Lachy CWilso does IE8 also support changing them with :before/:after and the CSS quotation mark properties?

  927. # [14:34] <anne> DB: Firefox does it but gets complaints from different locales because people do not agree on quotation rules
  928. # [14:34] * Lachy CWilso also, does IE8 support both ::before and :before syntaxes?
  929. # [14:34] <anne> CW: sigh, we did it the HTML4 way in IE8
  930. # [14:34] <gsnedders> q:lang(en)::before { content: '"'; } — anyone agree with that? :P

  971. # [14:43] * CWilso @DanC, what do you mean "which"?
  972. # [14:43] * Lachy isn't overly surprised that the selected passage is about death, but I don't understand what is meant by "overlapping ranges" in that?
  973. # [14:43] <gsnedders> Lachy: The verse cannot be marked up as a single element because it continues beyond the paragraph break
  974. # [14:43] <anne> IH: the <legend> element is reused and it's not clear whether that is actually possible due to legacy
  975. # [14:43] <hsivonen> Lachy, consider both paras and verses as containers
  976. # [14:44] <anne> JS: was this fixed in Firefox 3?

  979. # [14:44] <anne> IH: in Mozilla <legend> implies a <fieldset>
  980. # [14:44] <anne> IH: other browsers just drop it on the ground
  981. # [14:44] <anne> IH: nobody relies on this one way or another
  982. # [14:45] <Lachy> hsivonen, ok, it makes sense if I look at it in context, and see how the passage numbers are used
  983. # [14:45] <anne> IH: I would like not to add yet another way to mark up a heading
  984. # [14:45] <anne> HS: I think the legacy parsing will scare away authors so I would prefer a new name
  985. # [14:46] <anne> IH: it will hamper transition, but delaying it another couple of years is fine with me given the cost it would add to the language

  1310. # [16:55] <pimpbot> Title: Feedback on SVGWG's SVG-in-text/html proposal from Ian Hickson on 2008-08-28 (www-svg@w3.org from August 2008) (at lists.w3.org)

  1313. # [16:56] <CWilso> ack sicking
  1314. # [16:56] * Zakim sees shepazu, hsivonen, ChrisL on the speaker queue
  1315. # [16:56] * CWilso wonders if that was all Doug wanted to say?
  1316. # [16:56] <MikeSmith> sicking: concerned about having a requirement about strict parsing ...
  1317. # [16:56] <Hixie> darobin: eh, i start all mine by saying "i, er, i think, there is, hm, if we, hm, ..." ;-)
  1318. # [16:57] <shepazu> me that's because I usually go on for half an hour :)
  1319. # [16:58] <MikeSmith> ... is [the problem of unstable equilibrium which we have learned] that there is a risk it will just not happen that way in the long run
  1320. # [16:58] <MikeSmith> ChrisL: is it a goal to stop people from putting in well-formed content?
  1321. # [16:58] <CWilso> * It should be possible to drop an SVG file from a graphic editor into an
  1322. # [16:58] <CWilso> HTML5 document sent as text/html and usually have it validate and work.
  1323. # [16:59] <MikeSmith> [everybody expresses agreement that we don't want to penalize anybody for having WF-content]
  1324. # [16:59] <CWilso> * The DOM aspect of this should be very similar to using SVG in XHTML, so
  1325. # [16:59] <CWilso> that there is no work required beyond parser changes for text/html.
  1326. # [16:59] <MikeSmith> [agreement within rough consensus?]
  1327. # [16:59] <ChrisL> (whether it validates or not is irrelevant to me, but it should render as expected)
  1328. # [17:00] <CWilso> * The DOM aspect of this should be very similar to using SVG in XHTML, so
  1329. # [17:00] <ChrisL> I'm glad that penalising WF is not a goal
  1330. # [17:00] <CWilso> that there is no work required beyond parser changes for text/html.
  1331. # [17:00] <MikeSmith> [agreement from all]
  1332. # [17:00] <CWilso> * Changes to the parser should be relatively small and localised. For
  1333. # [17:00] <CWilso> example, it should double the number of states in the tokeniser, or add
  1334. # [17:00] <CWilso> half a dozen tree construction insertion modes.
  1335. # [17:00] <CWilso> s/double/not double
  1336. # [17:01] <CWilso> * The parsing model should be very light-weight. It shouldn't require,
  1337. # [17:01] <CWilso> for example, extra buffering, or parsing text twice.
  1338. # [17:01] <dbaron> s/double/not double/
  1339. # [17:01] * dbaron thinks the final slash is needed for s/// commands

  1344. # [17:02] <MikeSmith> chaals: the underlying goal is that the processing is reasonably efficient
  1345. # [17:03] <MikeSmith> ... the stated goal has more implementation detail in it than needed
  1346. # [17:03] <MikeSmith> [no broad consensus on this goal]
  1347. # [17:03] <CWilso> * The markup should be as easy to edit by hand as regular HTML, modulo
  1348. # [17:03] <CWilso> complications due to the vocabulary itself.

  1359. # [17:04] <CWilso> * The syntax shouldn't introduce two different syntaxes for HTML
  1360. # [17:04] <CWilso> elements in text/html. For example, it should be possible to take a big
  1361. # [17:04] <CWilso> blob of existing HTML, and wrap it in a <foreignObject> and have it
  1362. # [17:04] <CWilso> just work, without having to fix up missing end tags or namespace
  1363. # [17:04] <CWilso> declarations or whatever.
  1364. # [17:05] <MikeSmith> [agreement]
  1365. # [17:05] <CWilso> * If possible, the same mechanism should work for both MathML and SVG,
  1366. # [17:05] <CWilso> and it should make it relatively easy to introduce other vocabularies
  1367. # [17:05] <CWilso> in future, at least for vocabularies designed with this mechanism in

  1406. # [17:15] <CWilso> * If possible, we shouldn't expose users to namespace syntax at all,
  1407. # [17:15] <CWilso> though the DOM still needs to expose the namespaces.

  1409. # [17:15] <MikeSmith> ChrisL: but it should not disallow the namespaces
  1410. # [17:16] <MikeSmith> hsivonen: one issue is, should it render as SVG if you have a namespace, but it's the wrong namespace?
