Issue/Action review

<smaug> http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/track/

<shepazu> http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/track/products/2

<shepazu> http://www.w3.org/2008/08/23-svg-minutes.html

<shepazu> http://www.w3.org/2008/08/24-svg-minutes.html

shepazu: SVG WG (Tiny) decided to merge DOM L3 events functionality (pieces) into the SVG 1.2 Tiny spec.

<shepazu> ... and align with DOM3 Events for SVG Full/Core

smaug: What parts of DOM L3 events?

shepazu: text events/ key events (snapshot of DOM L3 Events 1 year ago)

smaug: text events hasn't changed in a long time (and already implemented in some browsers)

shepazu: downside is that these pieces will be specified in two different places.
... would consider the DOM L3 spec to be normative.

smaug: SVT 1.2 Tiny would remove dependency.

shepazu: We'd deprecate any legacy events stuff in SVG 1.2 Tiny in favor of whatever DOM L3 Events specifies in the future.
... Just wanting to make this group aware.
... it's not the ideal solution

smaug: Perhaps you should send out email to gather feedback.
... Would like to make sure Opera/Webkit and others not here will know.

tests

shepazu: Need to get moving on tests to see what's implemented, and how it's implemented.
... Noticed that carmello put some tests up on the list.

shepazu: Don't have a lot of time this week [working on SVG]

<smaug> http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/track/issues/44

shepazu: Any particular questions for today?

<shepazu> http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/DOM-Level-3-Events/html/DOM3-Events.html#events-event-resize

<smaug> http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#window

shepazu: Aught to think about how to address the "window" object and how events work with it.

<shepazu> "A document view or an element has been resized. The resize occurred before the dispatch of this event type."

<shepazu> Context info UIEvent.view

<shepazu> view of type views::AbstractView, readonly

<shepazu> The view attribute identifies the AbstractView from which the event was generated.

<shepazu> so, maybe we should just say that AbstractView is synonymous with Window in current implementations

<smaug> "The AbstractView object of default views must also implement the Window and EventTarget interfaces. "

smaug: The previous quote is from HTML5.

shepazu: This gives us the opportunity to describe how certain events propagate up to the "Abstract View"

smaug: When I worked on load events about two years ago, to avoid special case logic, and it broke lots of pages.

shepazu: Do we all agree that we should use the same kind of language as HTML5 for defaultView?

<smaug> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2008JulSep/0335.html

Resolution: Use similar language as HTML5 to specify event handling and propagation to the AbstractView (a.k.a. window object).

smaug: Current HTML5 specifies the event handling...

<smaug> http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/track/issues/44

<shepazu> Resolution: follow proposal from http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2008JulSep/0335.html

<shepazu> ACTION: shepazu to integrate http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2008JulSep/0335.html into D3E [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/09/03-webapps-minutes.html#action01]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-245 - Integrate http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2008JulSep/0335.html into D3E [on Doug Schepers - due 2008-09-10].

shepazu: Other issues?

Travis: smaug has some questions remaining about scrollevents...

<smaug> wheelevents

smaug: Still need to put some things together.

(thanks)

shepazu: Thanks All.
