<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/381
Yves: re issue-58 we can talk about how to autogenerate the catalog
noah: Being a good teacher is hard, that's why action-381 is hard
<NoahM> JAR: I've been working on httpRange-14 in conjunction with AWWSW. We can discuss it in the AWWSW slot.
noah: Noting request to put AWWSW and TDB near one another in schedule.
not everyone up to speed
masinter: section 1 the web uses mime, section 2 history, 3 problems
... maybe i should combine 3 & 4
... they're trying to say what's wrong, why we have a problem
... section 5, what kinds of fixes could we apply? (without going into specifics)
... that's the overall plan. there were other comments i got that i didn't know what to do with
... differences were not significant or major
... procedurally better if we don't get everything in here perfect.
... I would like people to check to make sure that what I've said makes sense
yves: HTML5 is calling for violation of rules stated in mime registry; that is an issue
... fragments and mime types [?]
... need to find ways to document issues with already registered mime types. not easy to do
masinter: Does the document explain the issues well enough? are the proposed list of things to fix complete?
... I thought these things were mentioned in the draft. If not need to fix
yves: polyglot. text vs. image. the case of SVG if labelled as image/svg+xml or application/xml
masinter: things missing, or incorrect statements of problems / fixes?
... Maybe it's close to being done for now.
... how about if we talk about it on a telcon after the f2f
<noah> ACTION-472 to be discussed in future telcon, with aim of getting agreement to push forward..f2f time not needed.
ashok: It's a nicely written paper
... There were a couple things related to client side state work. Many registrations don't describe semantics of fragids...
<Ashok> A possible solution is to amend the definition in the media types that accept "active content" in them, like HTML and SVG, to acknowledge the fact that fragments might also be used (if not in contradiction with the 'static' use of those fragments) for programmatic purposes.
ashok: and maybe registrations should say something about active content?
... I didn't figure out where you came out on magic numbers - against, for, useful in addition, what?
masinter: In many contexts all you have to go on is the magic number. A heuristic that in many contexts is essential.
... There are situations where the mechanism of transmitting mime types hasn't been effective.
... Need to be clearer on what they're for. The sniffing doc has moved from being individual submission, to work item of security WG
... Need to think about authoritative metadata and sniffing
... sniffing isn't enough
... lots of confusion around language versions. sniffing doesn't tell you which version
... collisions in magic-number-space
<johnk> sorry, I have to leave early today
noah: do we need to go into this detail here? sniffing seems like a separate discussion
masinter: I want the doc to gather in one place all these related problems
noah: servers should do the right thing, because ...
masinter: Want to increase the scope of the document
... include charsets, talk about context in which mime types are used
... Doc can identify problems without solving them
raman: Talking about sniffing in this doc is unavoidable. you have to.
<Zakim> NoahM, you wanted to talk about self-describing Web and authoritative metadata
masinter: ready for detailed change suggestions; or new topics
noah: please lead the process that will lead to a decision to bless
