Minutes Telecon 2015-03-04

• Resolved: Publish a new working draft of CSS Grid.
• Resolved: TabAtkins and dbaron are co-editors for Animations.
• Resolved: Do not change the current Flexbox spec for now knowing the compat risk with the change in abspos handling.
• Resolved: Publish a new WD for CSS3 UI.
• Everyone, especially implementors, were actioned to review Florian’s proposal (available here) for a more precise description of how box-sizing works. There will be three weeks to review the proposal before the issue is revisited.
• There was a conversation about potentially reverting vertical percentage padding/margin to match block. The argument for reverting was for consistency in the odd things about CSS so people only have to learn a weird rule, not a weird rule and its exceptions. The argument against reverting was to allow grid and flexbox to work in a way that was more intuitive to app developers that are relying on these tools. A compromise was raised to create a switch, such as creating ph and pw, so that authors can choose their behavior of choice instead of forcing one group or the other to think outside their desired approach. This idea met with favor. The implementors will hold a conversation to find out more about who is willing to implement what while discussion continues on the mailing list to further flesh out people’s opinions and proposals.
• Resolved: We keep selectors not in the fast profile and not implemented as invalid and we clarify it in the spec.
