- # [00:03] <@tantek> hober, yeah I saw that
- # [00:03] <@tantek> more NIH syndrome without any research
- # [00:04] <@tantek> the email to whatwg about it was sent last month and ignored
- # [00:04] <Hixie> ignored by whom?
- # [00:05] <Hixie> if you mean by me, i'm only up to e-mails from last june :-(
- # [00:05] <@tantek> ignored as in no one replied to it
- # [00:05] <@tantek> it's yet another reinvention of vcard4 vocabulary
- # [00:05] <@tantek> I should keep a count somewhere
- # [00:06] <@tantek> of everytime someone reinvents person schema/semantics
- # [00:06] <Loqi> yea
- # [00:06] <Hixie> autocompletetype is a reinvention of the RFC 3106 vocabulary, not the vCard vocabulary. :-)
- # [00:06] <@tantek> and if we keep count per company, I believe Google is in the lead
- # [00:07] <@tantek> Hixie, can you name any implementations of RFC 3106?
- # [00:07] <Hixie> google toolbar and netscape 6
- # [00:07] <Hixie> can you name any implementations of vcard4 for autocompletion?
- # [00:07] <@tantek> seriously? docs?
- # [00:08] <Hixie> docs for what?
- # [00:08] <@tantek> for google toolbar and netscape 6 implementing
- # [00:08] <Hixie> not off-hand
- # [00:08] <Hixie> search for "ecml google toolbar" and "ecml netscape"
- # [00:09] <Hixie> both give results
- # [00:09] <Hixie> i expect there are others, but i haven't looked into it
- # [00:09] <mkowens> There's even a test page for Google Toolbar for all the ECML Compliant Field Names: http://maettig.com/code/html/ecml_test_full.html
- # [00:10] <Hixie> i'm not convined authors care enough for it to be worth implementing anywhere, whatever the vocabulary
- # [00:10] <Hixie> whether it be one that reinvents ecml, or one the reinvents vcard that reinvents ecml :-)
- # [00:10] <@tantek> Hixie, 2426 predates 3106
- # [00:10] <mkowens> It would be difficult to convince most web developers to name their form fields semantically correct, but that's generally the case in a scenario where there has not yet been a really compelling reason to do so.
- # [00:11] <@tantek> so no, 3106 reinvents vCard
- # [00:11] <Hixie> tantek: 2426 is vcard3, you said vcard4
- # [00:11] <@tantek> I think I just said vcard
- # [00:12] <Hixie> <tantek> it's yet another reinvention of vcard4 vocabulary
- # [00:12] <@tantek> oh - sorry
- # [00:12] <@tantek> yes
- # [00:12] <@tantek> meant to just type vcard
- # [00:12] <@tantek> been thinking lots of vcard4 recently
- # [00:12] <@tantek> re-using it to fix ContactsAPI
- # [00:12] <Hixie> anyway my point was that the vocabulary that is most applicable here is ecml, not vcard
- # [00:12] <Hixie> vcard doesn't have shipping vs billing, credit card, etc, last i checked
- # [00:13] <@tantek> that's an interesting point to consider yes
- # [00:13] <@tantek> whether it is worth switching to a new vocabulary which itself unnecesarily forked from vcard
- # [00:13] <@tantek> Hixie, the microformats approach is to only add the new needed fields to what exists (e.g. vcard)
- # [00:14] <@tantek> rather than use a few new fields to throw in a whole new vocabulary
- # [00:14] <@tantek> i.e. 3106 screwed up by forking
- # [00:14] <@tantek> let's not propagate that mistake
- # [00:14] <@tantek> and on the contrary, let's correct for mistaken forking
- # [00:14] <Hixie> (ecml v1 is from 1999 or so; vcard1 is from 1995 or so)
- # [00:15] <Hixie> i don't think it makes much of a difference in this case, since i think the entire feature is likely DOA
- # [00:17] <mkowens> It seems to me that developers might best be served by using the vcard format for the base "contact" data and extend it with the ability to categorize a given set of vcard data with the type "Shipping", "Billing", or some other "type" that could then be used by whatever agent is doing the autofill can use the correct type of vcard for the autofill.
- # [00:18] <mkowens> Just my two cents.
- # [00:18] <@tantek> mkowens, indeed
- # [00:18] <@tantek> HIxie, by DOA do you mean in the spec? As the proposal claims that Chrome has already shipped it (yet another example of delayed-open tactics)
- # [00:18] <Hixie> how far from vcard is the proposed autocompletetype vocab?
- # [00:18] <Hixie> tantek: as in, just like with ecml, nobody will use it enough to make it worth it
- # [00:19] <@tantek> does it matter? it's clear from the proposal that the proposer didn't know about vcard, didn't research it etc.
- # [00:19] <Hixie> well it matters if what you care about is whether we have vocab forking, vs whether what you care about is berating people who are trying to improve the web :-)
- # [00:20] <mkowens> The tokens are somewhat similar, but the way it's structured is significantly different. There's no real structure to the token system.
- # [00:21] <Hixie> just the names, or the actual fields?
- # [00:21] <mkowens> Without any concept of inheritance via structural constraints, the specific names of tokens used to identify the items are more verbose in Autocompletetype than vCard.
- # [00:22] <Hixie> if it's just the names, then it's not a big deal, we can just define a mapping and then it's basically vcard
- # [00:22] <Hixie> if it's structured differently, that's a bigger problem
- # [00:22] <@tantek> yeah that would be a bigger problem, and is typically what happens
- # [00:22] <Hixie> (though only if anyone ever tries to use it)
- # [00:23] <@tantek> even if it is "just the names" the names given in the proposal should be rejected for being different for no reason (bike-shedding)
- # [00:24] <Hixie> i recommend approaching chrome directly to get them to fix the vocab
- # [00:25] <Hixie> if they get adoption, then the fact that they shipped will bias the spec towards what shipped, regardless of how ugly the names are
- # [00:25] <Hixie> and if they don't get adoption, it won't get into the spec, so i won't care either way what the names are :-)
- # [00:27] <@tantek> Hixie, biasing towards such delayed-open "oops we already shipped it" behavior just encourages it. That's not good for open standards development.
- # [00:27] <Hixie> it's not "oops we already shipped it", i told them to ship it because we need implementation experience.
- # [00:28] <Hixie> shipping experiments is how the web evolves
- # [00:28] <Hixie> you don't write standards before you ship
- # [00:28] <Hixie> mozilla does the same thing, and rightly so
- # [00:28] <Hixie> so does everyone else
- # [00:28] <@tantek> Hixie, not true
- # [00:29] <@tantek> Mozilla designs/documents in the open
- # [00:29] <@tantek> on wiki.mozilla.org
- # [00:29] <@tantek> *before* shipping
- # [00:29] <@tantek> whereas in this case the Chrome engineer posted to the WHATWG wiki *AFTER* shipping
- # [00:29] <@tantek> big difference
- # [00:29] <@tantek> open discussions before shipping is better for open standards than such closed-behind-doors then ship-and-propose techniques.
- # [00:30] <Hixie> *shrug*
- # [00:30] <Hixie> it's all the same to me
- # [00:30] <Hixie> what we need is implementation experience
- # [00:30] <Hixie> it doesn't really matter if you post stuff on a project wiki before or not
- # [00:31] <@tantek> it does - otherwise you're not working in the open
- # [00:31] <@tantek> and it's a shady tactic
- # [00:31] <Hixie> um...
- # [00:31] <Hixie> so MacIE was "shady"?
- # [00:32] <Hixie> fixes for mozilla security bugs are "shady"?
- # [00:32] <@tantek> no, having a closed to public discussions CSSWG was shady (in the shade)
- # [00:32] <Hixie> come now
- # [00:32] <Hixie> standards work should be open, sure
- # [00:32] <@tantek> Hixie, there's been quite a bit of good discussion of this
- # [00:32] <@tantek> e.g. http://hueniverse.com/2010/05/open-vs-fast-good-vs-evil-google-vs-facebook/
- # [00:32] <Hixie> standards work comes after experimental work
- # [00:33] <@tantek> and I wrote more about it here: http://tantek.com/2011/168/b1/practices-good-open-web-standards-development
- # [00:33] <@tantek> Hixie sometimes
- # [00:33] <@tantek> per fantasai's blog posts, innovation can come from many sources
- # [00:34] <@tantek> http://fantasai.inkedblade.net/weblog/2011/inside-csswg/
- # [00:35] <Hixie> i've nothing against people proposing things in public, indeed that's all i do
- # [00:36] <Hixie> but i think it's disingenuous to suggest that anyone doing experimental work without public participation (or at least public documentation prior to shipping) is "shady" ("of doubtful honesty")
- # [00:37] <Hixie> it's especially so for something like chrome where all the code is in the public eye within days of being writted and within weeks of shipping
- # [00:39] <mkowens> Maybe the reluctance in implementing before open discussion is had here is more about how harshly it can prejudice future work on whatever it is that is being experimented upon.
- # [00:40] <@tantek> Hixie, it's not transparent, which yes, is shady.
- # [00:41] <Hixie> tantek: you are fully aware that the word "shady" has more baggage than that.
- # [00:41] <Hixie> mkowens: it's _supposed_ to prejudice future work. That's what it's _for_.
- # [00:45] <mkowens> Hixie: I'm not saying it's wrong to use experimental implementations to influence future work. I'm saying that the fact that there was no "open discussion" prior to the experimental implementation makes it more like "open* discussion" as it immediately creates an incumbent environment that is difficult, if found to be suboptimal, escape.
- # [00:45] <mkowens> to escape from*
- # [00:47] <Hixie> i don't see that as a problem
- # [00:47] <Hixie> we fix the big issues, and we move on
- # [00:47] <Hixie> q.v. canvas
- # [00:47] <Hixie> that is a canonical example of something developed not in the open
- # [00:47] <Hixie> which we then discussed, fixed (in a way that broke safari quite badly!) the one or two major problems, and adopted the rest.
- # [00:48] <Hixie> sure, that means certain things were decided in ways that are suboptimal
- # [00:49] <Hixie> but that's better overall because it means it was based on real implemented experience
- # [00:49] <mkowens> Right, but one of the things that we, as people who influence the standards, have a responsibility to do is don't break the web. Leaving potential places for future work to "[break] Safari quite badly" is not something we should be encouraging.
- # [00:49] <Hixie> honestly even if there was "open discussion" on a project wiki before hand it wouldn't make much of a difference if any
- # [00:49] <mkowens> In most cases, I imagine it wouldn't.
- # [00:50] <Hixie> it's not like everyone is going to participate in mozilla newsgroup / wiki discussions, mostly only mozilla people are
- # [00:50] <mkowens> But there might be a handful of times where it might get fixed.
- # [00:50] <Hixie> the whole point of experimental shipped stuff is that it is experimental and can be broken if necessary
- # [00:50] <Hixie> it wouldn't be experimental if that wasn't the case
- # [00:50] <Hixie> it would just be a proprietary tech
- # [00:50] <@tantek> Hixie this statement " if there was "open discussion" on a project wiki before hand it wouldn't make much of a difference if any" is not true
- # [00:51] <Hixie> sure it is
- # [00:51] <@tantek> if that proposal had been made before shipping, it would have encouraged improvements
- # [00:51] <@tantek> rather than acting de facto
- # [00:51] <Hixie> it WAS made before shipping
- # [00:51] <@tantek> also with publishing research
- # [00:51] <Hixie> in code
- # [00:51] <@tantek> it makes a difference
- # [00:52] <@tantek> Hixie, not reasonable to expect everyone to watch everyone else's code commit logs
- # [00:52] <@tantek> code commits != discussion
- # [00:52] <Hixie> it's not like you would have noticed it if it was discussed in some public chrome dev list
- # [00:52] <@tantek> easier to fix dumb mistakes before they get coded
- # [00:52] <Hixie> project wiki != discussion
- # [00:52] <Hixie> != open public discussion, anyway
- # [00:53] <@tantek> Hixie, as you're so fond of saying, just search for it on the web
- # [00:53] <@tantek> and if the public wiki shows up
- # [00:53] <@tantek> it does = discussion
- # [00:53] <mkowens> It's the closest we've got to an open public discussion.
- # [00:53] <@tantek> if not or if it's not obvious, send an email
- # [00:53] <@tantek> project wiki is much more accessible, searchable, findable etc. than any code repository
- # [00:54] <Hixie> so if i put something on the wiki, and nobody notices, but you can google for it, you think that's good enough?
- # [00:54] <@tantek> thus much more like a public discussion
- # [00:54] <Hixie> you're making hair-splitting distinctions with no practical value here
- # [00:54] <@tantek> if you can google for the general subject area and it comes up sure
- # [00:54] <@tantek> no one is going to search for your specific terms
- # [00:55] <@tantek> Hixie, search/discoverability is not hairsplitting
- # [00:55] <@tantek> as evidence by Google's market cap
- # [00:55] <@tantek> so yeah, searchability/discoverability makes a *big* difference
- # [00:56] <@tantek> and emailing or IRC discussing those project wiki URLs is even better
- # [00:56] <@tantek> but first, start somewhere search discoverable
- # [00:56] <@tantek> rather than a much harder to search/discover/interpret code repository
- # [00:56] <Hixie> the checkins are googlable
- # [00:56] <@tantek> hah
- # [00:56] <Hixie> so by your argument, it was public
- # [00:56] <Hixie> and discussed
- # [00:56] <Hixie> o_O
- # [00:56] <@tantek> nope, the checkins don't show up on any such searches
- # [00:56] <@tantek> good luck with that
- # [00:57] <Hixie> dude
- # [00:57] <Hixie> you made me do a search for this
- # [00:57] <Hixie> and i have now found that it WAS publicly discussed!
- # [00:57] <Hixie> In August last year!!!
- # [00:57] <Hixie> http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=92121
- # [00:58] <@tantek> "working with other browser vendors" who?
- # [00:58] <Hixie> heck if i know
- # [00:58] <@tantek> sounds like shady backdoor communications
- # [00:58] <mkowens> Looks like Microsoft.
- # [00:58] <Hixie> i didn't know about it til about a day before they posted on the whatwg list
- # [00:58] <@tantek> yup
- # [00:58] <@tantek> exactly
- # [00:58] <Hixie> but by your argument, that's public
- # [00:58] <mkowens> autocompletetype appears to have originated as a ASP.Net property
- # [00:58] <mkowens> as an*
- # [00:59] <Hixie> it was a project site, a searchable/discoverable place, months before shipping, which is completely open to all
- # [00:59] <mkowens> Eh; scratch that. Just actually read the details of that and that's a very different use case.
- # [00:59] <@tantek> hixie, what search on google.com led you to http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=92121 on the first page of results?
- # [00:59] <Hixie> "and if the public wiki shows up" "it does = discussion"
- # [00:59] <@tantek> searching for a specific term you already knew?
- # [01:00] * Quits: Morphous_ (jan@g228136181.adsl.alicedsl.de) (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
- # [01:00] <Hixie> what search terms have you been randomly searching for over the past year?
- # [01:00] <@tantek> Hixie, everytime I work on developing technology I do searches first
- # [01:00] <@tantek> and I document my research, with URLs, publicly
- # [01:01] <Hixie> and you've been working on autocomplete?
- # [01:01] <@tantek> no you're the one that claimed you found it through a search
- # [01:01] <Hixie> you're the one who claimed that if it could be found throught search that was good enough
- # [01:01] <Hixie> i'm saying that's silly
- # [01:01] <Hixie> because you're not searching for things you didn't know others were working on
- # [01:02] <@tantek> Hixie - there's no discussion on that page
- # [01:02] <@tantek> just a summary
- # [01:03] <@tantek> and a bunch of check-ins
- # [01:03] <@tantek> to be fair
- # [01:03] <@tantek> it *is* good that that is on a public page
- # [01:03] <@tantek> but it's far cry from a project wiki
- # [01:03] <Hixie> i wouldn't be surprised if at the time that was all the documentation that there was
- # [01:03] <@tantek> though at least it *does* have an open comment box
- # [01:03] <Hixie> i doubt the thing on the wiki was written before it was checked in
- # [01:04] <Hixie> anyway
- # [01:04] <@tantek> the thing on the wiki was written 2011-12-15
- # [01:04] <Hixie> this is all academic since i still think this is DOA :-)
- # [01:04] <@tantek> and the thing on the wiki claimed it already shipped
- # [01:04] <@tantek> which would imply it was already checked in ;)
- # [01:04] <Hixie> right
- # [01:05] <Hixie> looks like the order of events was bug, code, checkin, ship, document, ping me, post on public list.
- # [01:05] <@tantek> with post to whatwg wiki just before public list
- # [01:05] <@tantek> anyway
- # [01:05] <@tantek> mkowens, if this feature/functionality interests you
- # [01:05] <Hixie> well the list is what matters
- # [01:06] <Hixie> the wiki is just a place to put notes
- # [01:06] <@tantek> here is the work in progress on the related research that's been done on the microformats wiki: http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-input
- # [01:06] <mkowens> Thanks; I'll check it out when I've got a bit more time.
- # [01:06] <@tantek> Hixie, right, whatwg is the opposite of microformats in that way
- # [01:06] * Joins: comkee (~comkee@p4FCDFDAC.dip.t-dialin.net)
- # [01:06] <Hixie> yes
- # [01:06] <@tantek> in microformats, the wiki is canonical, and mailing list is just fyi
- # [01:07] <@tantek> Hixie, regardless, I'll take your advice and reply with suggested improvements on the whatwg list
- # [01:07] <Hixie> cool
- # [01:07] <Hixie> having spoken to them, i can assure you that they are very open to suggestions
- # [01:07] <@tantek> we'll see how malleable the proposal is
- # [01:07] <@tantek> that's good to hear
- # [01:08] <@tantek> I'll try to assume as much
- # [01:08] <Hixie> at least in this instance, they really did ship it as an experiment to see how it did, not to force a status quo
- # [01:08] <Hixie> they just want to make autocomplete actually work for users
- # [01:08] <Hixie> i wish i had more faith that that was an achievable goal
- # [01:09] <Hixie> hopefully they and you will prove me wrong :-)
- # [01:09] <@tantek> I won't make any appraisals of chance of success
- # [01:09] <@tantek> or achievability as you put it
- # [01:14] <mkowens> I would guess that making autocomplete actually work for users will require some form of content analysis on labels near and around inputs, not better form standards, even though better form standards will help.

- # [01:26] <@tantek> mkowens, precisely. IE4.5/Mac (which was AFAIK the first browser to implement autofill like is proposed) did that - content analysis on labels near and around inputs, their name attribute(s) etc.

- # [19:00] <bryckbost> Any ideas if there is anyone putting effort into http://microformats.org/wiki/project or if there is a different format to encapsulate open-source projects & libraries?

- # [19:16] <bryckbost> tantek: yes, https://gemnasium.com/.
- # [19:17] <bryckbost> the data we parse for it really comes from RubyGems.org, for example: https://rubygems.org/gems/delayed_job
- # [19:17] * Joins: patcito (~123@190.42.201.186)
- # [19:19] <bryckbost> the Ruby world has a pretty well defined specification for libraries, but could be extrapolated and generalized to describe projects on github, google code and jQuery plugins.

- # [19:27] <@tantek> very cool
- # [19:28] <@tantek> bryckbost - there might even be enough difference between an open source project/library and the normal project management notion of a project for the oss variety to deserve its own vocabulary
- # [19:28] <@tantek> but the best thing is to start with documenting your example
- # [19:28] <@tantek> could you add an entry for gemnasium.com to http://microformats.org/wiki/project-examples ?
- # [19:28] <@tantek> thanks!
