- # [08:24] <othermaciej> I've seen the similar study published before and it seemed questionable to me
- # [08:24] <othermaciej> 1) they don't give enough information to reproduce their results (neither original data, nor enough detail of the methodology)
- # [08:25] * Joins: maikmerten (~merten@ls5dhcp196.cs.uni-dortmund.de)
- # [08:26] <othermaciej> 2) what they do say sounded like there was a lot of arbitrary fiddling with the original test sites (e.g. to remove ones that exploit security bugs in some way other than social engineering, which seems pretty point-missing)
- # [08:26] <othermaciej> 3) it's not clear if their data source for what sites contain malware in the first place is independent from Microsoft's
- # [08:27] <othermaciej> I would also say it's very suspicious that Firefox, Safari and Chrome get such different results, considering they all use Google's malware/phishing data

- # [09:10] <othermaciej> MikeSmith: if the editor proposes it, then the chairs would likely put an FPWD resolution before the group
- # [09:10] <othermaciej> I believe it meets the threshold of being a bona fide collaborative product of the WG
- # [09:11] <othermaciej> and I believe it is reasonably in scope
- # [09:11] <MikeSmith> OK, thanks
- # [09:11] <MikeSmith> so I guess will propose to Hixie that he propose it
- # [09:11] <othermaciej> I did notice that the author view radio button is now available on the TR page
- # [09:11] <MikeSmith> yeah
- # [09:11] <MikeSmith> let's please not make a lot of noise about that
- # [09:12] <othermaciej> MikeSmith: btw, my preference would be to start the publication cycle about 2 months from now
- # [09:12] <MikeSmith> no one has ever explicitly told me that we can't have JS in docs in TR
- # [09:12] <othermaciej> it took about 1 month from the time the publication CfC was posted to the time we published
- # [09:12] * Joins: pesla (~retep@procurios.xs4all.nl)
- # [09:12] <MikeSmith> othermaciej: works for me
- # [09:12] <othermaciej> so we have to start the CfC in 2 months to actually satisfy the heartbeat requirement
- # [09:12] <MikeSmith> yeah
- # [09:12] <othermaciej> if there were additional drafts ready by then, that would be cool
- # [09:13] <othermaciej> also if we publish WDs more often then hopefully it can be less dramatic
- # [09:13] <MikeSmith> yes
- # [09:13] <MikeSmith> so that means restarting WD discussion in early May, publishing in June
- # [09:14] <MikeSmith> it would good to get new drafts out before the July/August holiday period
- # [09:14] <MikeSmith> when a lot of people tend to be away for weeks at a time
- # [09:15] <Hixie> MikeSmith: i'm happy for it to be there, though i think if we publish it we should probably do it as a subcomponent of the HTML5 spec, not a separate /TR/ deliverable
- # [09:15] <Hixie> MikeSmith: probably should make it clear that it's non-normative, too
- # [09:15] <othermaciej> Hixie: how would you do it as a subcomponent? separate link in the table of contents?
- # [09:19] <othermaciej> MikeSmith: bdash suggests "download a fresh build from nightly.webkit.org, and to save the bad build and file a bug report with it"
- # [09:20] <Hixie> yeah, i guess
- # [09:20] <Hixie> well, no
- # [09:20] <Hixie> more like the same way we do the multipage version
- # [09:20] <Hixie> there's a w3c convention for this kind of thing
- # [09:21] <Hixie> links to pdf versions, multipage versions, etc
- # [09:22] <MikeSmith> ah yeah
- # [09:22] <MikeSmith> good point
- # [09:22] <MikeSmith> we can just treat it as a variant of the full spec
- # [09:22] <othermaciej> ah, alternate non-normative formats
- # [09:26] <boblet> MikeSmith: re: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec-author-view/ what’s up with the double asterisk overlapping “call” in “Status: last call for comments”
- # [09:26] <boblet> eg http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec-author-view/sections.html#the-article-element
- # [09:27] <boblet> looks like generated content, but I can’t see from where
- # [09:28] <MikeSmith> boblet: no idea
- # [09:29] <MikeSmith> some borkedness in the CSS stylesheet I'll need to unwind
- # [09:29] <boblet> heh
- # [09:32] <Hixie> boblet: what browser?
- # [09:32] <MikeSmith> othermaciej: OK, grabbed a fresh build and it's working fine
- # [09:32] <othermaciej> MikeSmith: woot
- # [09:33] <MikeSmith> othermaciej: so what should I attache to the bug report?
- # [09:33] <MikeSmith> zip up the WebKit.app ?
- # [09:33] <boblet> Hixie: seeing those asterisks in Chrome and FF latest for Mac. Only me?
- # [09:33] <Hixie> boblet: does it disappear if you hit command++/command+- ?
- # [09:34] <boblet> nope. changing body font to serif changes position slightly though
- # [09:34] <boblet> (moves it to end of “call”)
- # [09:35] <boblet> holler if you want screenshots
- # [09:35] <Hixie> boblet: sounds like a browser bug to me -- misplaced ::before or ::after from a class="XXX" element.
- # [09:36] <Hixie> odd that it doesn't move when you resize though
- # [09:36] <MikeSmith> .XXX:before, .XXX:after { content: " ** "; position: absolute; left: 0; width: 8em; text-align: right; }
- # [09:37] <boblet> MikeSmith: there you go. Pity inspector & Firebug don’t show generated content (& make it hard to access eg hover state CSS)
- # [09:37] <MikeSmith> indeed
- # [09:37] <MikeSmith> anyway, I just checked in a fiew
- # [09:37] <MikeSmith> fix
- # [09:38] <MikeSmith> eagle eye
- # [09:38] <boblet> happy to help ;-)
- # [09:38] * MikeSmith thinks boblet must read through specs with a jeweler's loupe
- # [09:39] <boblet> “hey, designers *are* good for something!”
- # [09:39] <MikeSmith> heh
- # [09:39] <Hixie> MikeSmith: what was the bug? (what did you change?)
- # [09:42] <MikeSmith> Hixie: I made a copy of the http://www.whatwg.org/style/specification stylesheet
- # [09:43] <MikeSmith> and have I that document referencing it
- # [09:43] <MikeSmith> I can't quite remember why, now
- # [09:43] <MikeSmith> but that's what it's doing
- # [09:43] <MikeSmith> and what I did was just to comment out that part
- # [09:43] <MikeSmith> .XXX:before, .XXX:after { content: " ** "; position: absolute; left: 0; width: 8em; text-align: right; }
- # [09:46] <Hixie> neither of those should be necessary :-)
- # [09:46] <boblet> maybe someone who really really liked Markdown wrote the CSS?
- # [09:47] <MikeSmith> I blame the CSS gremlins

- # [09:52] <Creap> is there any input which can represent a time including seconds?
- # [09:54] <boblet> Hixie: what was the effect you wanted? It seems like it’s putting ** 8em from the left inside .XXX, and that happens to be about where class is
- # [09:55] <zcorpan> Creap: "A time consists of a specific time with no time-zone information, consisting of an hour, a minute, a second, and a fraction of a second."
- # [09:56] <zcorpan> Creap: from the spec on <input type=time>
- # [09:57] <Creap> ok, I was confused by http://www.w3.org/TR/html-markup/input.time.html#input.time + Opera's implementation lacking seconds
- # [09:59] <Hixie> boblet: oh, i thought you meant it was nowhere near anything that should have had the stars
- # [09:59] <Hixie> Creap: make sure to set step=1
- # [10:00] <Hixie> boblet: it's supposed to attract attention to the issues
- # [10:00] <boblet> Hixie: the ** appear inside a paragraph with .XXX, so it’s as expected
- # [10:00] <Hixie> boblet: ah ok
- # [10:01] <Creap> ah.
- # [10:02] <zcorpan> Creap: could you file a bug about opera's impl?
- # [10:03] <Creap> should it include seconds by default? using step=1 as hixie suggested makes it show seconds
- # [10:03] <boblet> Hixie: if you were wanting ** before and after, I think you might need to define :before and :after separately
- # [10:06] <mut> do i have to use .closePath? or not?

- # [16:22] <Philip`> I thought it was called pubdate now
- # [16:22] <mr_danie1> is the following sentence in the book 'div into html5' (http://diveintohtml5.org/) book really true:
- # [16:22] <mr_danie1> ...The HTTP header is the preferred method, and it overrides the <meta> tag if present....
- # [16:23] <mr_danie1> you can find it in this page: http://diveintohtml5.org/semantics.html#encoding
- # [16:23] <mr_danie1> I thought the reason why the <meta charset=...> tag is available is because most authores CANNOT set the http content-type header
- # [16:24] <mr_danie1> but when the http content-type header, which could be wrong', overwrites any authors attempt to alter the charset, the <meta charset=...> wouldn't make sense

- # [16:31] <workmad3> mr_danie1: in the case where the server is serving data that it doesn't know the content type for, it should omit the content-type header completely I believe
- # [16:31] <workmad3> rather than send a false type that will be taken as exact
- # [16:32] <mr_danie1> I think meta charset > http header would be better, for example: the server sets content-type:charset=utf-8, but the author sets <meta charset=iso-...
- # [16:32] <mr_danie1> and when the http header, the content will be displayed wrong, because the content is iso-...
- # [16:33] <mr_danie1> ...http header WIN, the...
- # [16:33] <Philip`> mr_danie1: Can't do that because it would be incompatible with all current browsers
- # [16:33] <workmad3> mr_danie1: if the server is sending an incorrect content type, the server has a bug
- # [16:33] <Philip`> and probably incompatible with lots of current pages
- # [16:34] <workmad3> or is configured incorrectly... either way, it's not a problem with the standard
- # [16:34] <Philip`> You should always use UTF-8 anyway :-)
- # [16:34] <mr_danie1> ok, so html5 must use this policy because of its 'incremental html improvement' approach not to break the current web
- # [16:34] <mr_danie1> workmad3: true, then the server has a problem
- # [16:35] <workmad3> also, I believe in a lot of cases, it's the <meta charset= that is incorrect, because it was set on old content that has since been re-encoded
- # [16:35] <mr_danie1> Philip`: true, utf-8 is my favourite; it hate encoding issues, especially when I work in a team with lot of people
- # [16:35] <Philip`> mr_danie1: Yes, and also because it's probably better for the server to be authoritative
- # [16:36] <workmad3> and (checking the wiki page on http encodings) it looks like <meta> content types should be used by the server, not the browser
- # [16:36] <Philip`> You already have to trust the server to tell you the content is text/html rather than image/png or whatever, so it'd be odd if you trusted it to say the "content-type: text/html" part but not the "; charset=utf-8" part
- # [16:37] <Philip`> workmad3: ?
- # [16:37] <Philip`> Servers shouldn't be parsing HTML
- # [16:37] <workmad3> 'A known misconception about <meta http-equiv="Content-Type"> is that meta element is intended to be interpreted directly by a browser, like an ordinary HTML tag. According to WWW Consortium, it helps HTTP server[1] to generate some headers when it serves the document.'
- # [16:38] <workmad3> that said, it's a wiki page... it could easily be incorrect :)
- # [16:38] <Philip`> I assume that was the original intention, hence it being called "http-equiv" and being equivalent to HTTP headers, but that's crazy and not how it works today
- # [16:39] <workmad3> it does seem to gel with the description here as well though: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/global.html#edef-META
- # [16:39] <Philip`> Indeed, but HTML4 is crazy and doesn't reflect reality either

- # [16:46] <workmad3> Dashiva: how about if web servers sniffed the browser types and rewrote the HTML they were serving to be compatible? :D
- # [16:47] <Philip`> Most web pages are generated dynamically and all the headers are output before any content, so it wouldn't even be possible to parse it and add headers
- # [16:49] <asmodai> annevk: Can you elaborate why it was a deliberate decision btw? (complex ruby)
- # [16:49] <workmad3> it's all just crazy anyway... encoding issues only exist because people were insane, and they turn sane people into insane people even now
- # [16:53] <annevk> asmodai, I believe that nobody really requested more than what IE already supported
- # [16:56] <Philip`> workmad3: I don't think it's because people were insane - it was logical and sensible to invent all sorts of 8-bit encodings when computers rarely communicated with each other (and especially not internationally), to suit their particular needs
- # [16:56] <Philip`> and then it was necessary to continue supporting them for legacy compatibility
- # [16:57] <Philip`> which results in all these encoding issues
- # [16:58] <workmad3> Philip`: maybe... I'll stick with my 'people are insane' view though, it justifies me cursing encodings more ;)
