Vlad: let's briefly go through the agenda
... Rod, one open action item
... Padding, alignment action item
... you had mentioned something before, can we close?

Rod: let me look at it again and confirm

Action items

Vlad: OK. Other option action items, will likely remain open for a while (as they are being worked on)

<Vlad> We will keep them all open for now, and review at the next call

Vlad: next up, Telcon schedule

Call schedule for the remainder of 2014

Vlad: next week is Thanksgiving (Thurs, Friday off), thus likely a good week to skip

Vlad, Rod, David: let's cancel

Vlad: and then in December...
... have three weeks, before the holidays
... let's try and meet the first three weeks (Dec 3rd, 10th, 17th)

<Vlad> Telcon on Wed. Nov. 26 is cancelled.

Vlad: next up, conformance tests

conformance tests

<RSheeter> just to reiterate, woff2-tests repo now populated (https://github.com/w3c/woff2-tests) and construction of tests in progress

Vlad: to confirm, Khaled Hosney is working on the conformance tests, right?

Rod, David: Correct. He is based in Egypt, and really excited and cranking on the tests

Vlad: great! we should really nail down the plan
... and the test specifics / details. Some already need to be revised
... I will go over the tests again, and revise the one. But could everyone else review (test plans) as well, and send comments to the mailing list?
... Would Khaled join the working group? Will ask Chris if we could invite him as an expert?
... let's see if he can join the mailing list to start

Rod: I will ask him to try and join the list

Vlad: and then if we invite him as an expert, it would be free for him (has to be done through the W3C, will ask Chris)
... Saw the email about moving the font compression reference to the new github repository

<RSheeter> woff2 reference has migrated to https://github.com/google/woff2

Rod: Brotli is now a separate github repository

<RSheeter> brotli now at https://github.com/google/brotli

Vlad: and now font collections

OTC support

Rod: working on making a branch available for early testing
... the checksum definition is a bit unclear to me at the moment

Vlad: have an opportunity to change the new OpenType standard through mid Dec
... there is an official ISO ballot that is open, with deadline of Dec 11th

<RSheeter> the checksum in the head table in particular doesn't entirely make sense as defined @ http://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/head.htm

Vlad: this could be a good one. How about we start a discussion over email, and then I can carry it forward
... Adobe would be interested in seeing this clarified/captured as well

Rod: great, I will start a thread

Vlad: will forward the particular discussion to the group for context
... should be relatively easy to clarify in the spec
... OK, thank you everyone!
