Minutes Telecon 2016-12-07
- The F2F meeting in Japan is confirmed for 17-21 April.
- The telecon on 28 December is canceled. 21 December and 4 January are currently planned to occur, but members should keep an eye on the private list.
- The specs that were a part of the FXTF are now the sole responsibility of the CSSWG. Rossen will investigate the best way to move the specs in the CSSWG drafts & github repo making sure to preserve spec history and issues.
- There were two options for how to address when an image is stretch in one direction and has a value like center in the other direction.
- It always preserves aspect ratio
- Ignore/break aspect ratio
- There was no clear consensus between the two options. A few people felt that the problem is created by putting sizing in an alignment property and there should be thought on avoiding that. The interested parties will talk over github and maybe get on a call to keep thinking through the implications of these issues.
- There were two views on the relative URL resolution in var() references issue:
- This is an edge case and an exception shouldn’t be made as it’s harder to teach exceptions
- This problem makes URL in variables close to useless and therefore needs fixing
- Several vendors weren’t giving options and TabAtkins, who had strong options, wasn’t on the call, so discussion will continue on github and a resolution will be sought on next week’s call.
- Resolved: Add a note along the lines of koji’s example telling authors how to work around the lack of correct implementation. (In reference to the proposal to replace “‘text-orientation: upright’ to cause strong LTR” with author notes how to do it)
- This section will remain as a MUST with a plan to argue it’s an edge case and shouldn’t block a move to PR.
