q+
21:35:13 [jasonjgw]
Janina asks whether this is a good set of questions. Is there anything missing?
21:35:15 [andy]
IS it a useful set of questions ?
21:35:36 [jasonjgw]
Michael considers it's a good set of questions but his response to item 1 would result in the addition of questions to the list.
21:35:45 [andy]
Michael - may need additional questions to narrow down for 1.0
21:35:58 [jcraig]
Zakim, who is on the call?
21:35:58 [Zakim]
On the phone I see andy, Rich_Simpson, Jason_White, Janina_Sajka, Michael_Cooper, [Apple]

21:37:29 [MichaelC]
q+ to speak to question 1
21:37:36 [andy]
Jason's earlier post (see URI) is the general criteria
21:37:57 [andy]
the questions recently posted are just about getting preferences in and out
21:38:12 [jcraig]
q?
21:38:26 [janina]
q?
21:38:28 [jcraig]
ack me
21:38:46 [andy]
will process the most recent email then return to the general post
21:39:57 [andy]
James: we are not getting feedback from external groups because we are no longer associated with another group and may need to be associated with web-apps or css
21:40:18 [andy]
james some of the preferences may be better dealt with as media queries
21:41:18 [jasonjgw]
James would like to encourage other associated working groups to work jointly with us in this area. He notes the relevance, for example, of CSS media queries. Many of the items could be moved to Media Queries, leaving the role of User Contexts as that of providing an API and a means of access control. If any of this were to happen, it would transform the scope of User Context discussions.
21:41:18 [andy]
james: doing it that way we can separate the prefs that have privacy implications from ones that dont
21:41:28 [MichaelC]
q+ to speak about group structure
21:42:38 [jasonjgw]
He notes that there is currently a media query for monochrome that can reflect operating system preferences.
21:43:12 [andy]
james: many of the prefs could map to media queries
21:43:55 [andy]
michael: overlap between what we might define and what those groups (web apps and media queires) might define
21:44:16 [jasonjgw]
Michael acknowledges potential overlap with Media Queries, and also the work of the Web Applications wg. We should collaborate; this need not require a formally constituted joint taskforce with those groups.
21:44:48 [andy]
q+
21:44:56 [jasonjgw]
Janina notes the importance of shared ownership of the resulting technology.
21:45:12 [jasonjgw]
Michael concurs.
21:45:23 [MichaelC]
q- later
21:45:38 [MichaelC]
ack a
21:46:19 [jasonjgw]
Andy emphasizes the importance of interoperability with other work in the needs/preferences area.
21:46:28 [andy]
q+
21:46:57 [jasonjgw]
Janina indicates that the features of 1.0 can be expected to be constrained, but implementation of them opens the way to a very robust 2.0 version.
21:47:38 [MichaelC]
ack a
21:48:04 [jasonjgw]
Andy is concerned about interoperability with what search engines are starting to provide for resource discovery.
21:49:06 [jasonjgw]
He again emphasizes the importance of interoperability among the various efforts in this area.
21:49:24 [jasonjgw]
Janina notes the importance of this issue.
21:49:32 [janina]
q?
21:50:50 [jasonjgw]
Michael notes that CSS and Web Applications are meeting at TPAC, hence collaboration could be discussed at the meeting.
21:51:08 [jasonjgw]
James proposes to start the discussion (e.g., with CSS) before TPAC.
21:51:47 [jasonjgw]
He proposes to start discussing media query proposals individually.
21:53:19 [jasonjgw]
Michael notes that if some of the needs/preferences are integrated into different APIs/CSS features, we'll need to track them all carefully.
21:54:25 [andy]
q+
21:55:13 [jasonjgw]
Jason's question 1: James would answer yes, because we need two interoperable implementations and it would be a mistake to enter CR before these implementations are in place.
21:55:17 [MichaelC]
ack me
21:55:17 [Zakim]
MichaelC, you wanted to speak to question 1 and to speak about group structure
21:55:19 [andy]
q-
21:55:52 [jasonjgw]
Michael generally agrees, while noting that the implementations can be completed at the CR stage; features can be declared as at risk.
21:55:58 [janina]
q?
21:56:40 [jasonjgw]
There is a risk (in the process) that a spec would need to be returned to Last Call.
21:57:15 [jasonjgw]
Janina: if there is assurance of implementation by Last Call then that may/should? be sufficient.
21:57:58 [janina]
q?
21:58:57 [jasonjgw]
Question 2: it seems we should answer it similarly to question 1.
21:59:02 [janina]
q?
22:00:48 [jasonjgw]
Michael notes the need for two implementations and that consensus (as to what user agents are doing by way of implementation) is also very relevant.
22:01:42 [jasonjgw]
James suggests that adding features to Media Queries (which are already implemented by UAs) is a convenient and effective path to interoperable implementations.
22:02:33 [jasonjgw]
Michael notes that we can have a comprehensive set of requirements, some of which can be met by external specs (provides these are tracked appropriately).
