Agenda

Friday

am

  • scripts API - add to list of Houdini specs? Discussion of open questions. (ian)
  • Elephants in the room (gregwhitworth) - The apply model for custom properties means that you can’t have two custom properties that apply to the same used values coexisting on the same element. Is being restrictive and relying on user shims the right way to get somewhat future-proofed composition?
  • CSSOM 2.0 - should this be a separate spec or rolled into Properties & Values? (shans)

pm

  • Properties & Values - status of ED, discussion of open questions, are we ready for FPWD?
  • Generalized Cascading Sheets (Lea)
  • Custom Layout - summary of current status (ian, greg)
  • Font metrics, lineboxes, their interaction (chris) (jdaggett dialin, friday after 2pm)
  • Non-metric information on a Font object (e.g. OpenType features, Unicode coverage) (chris) (jdaggett dialin, friday after 2pm)
  • Deadrange (or whatever we call it) (chris)
  • Building blocks for pagination (dauwhe)
  • Spec and discussions management (shans)

Saturday

am

  • Next f2f meetings
  • Custom Paint - status of ED, discussion of open questions, are we ready for FPWD?
  • Async Style (compositor worker) - status update and name bikeshedding (vollick)
  • scroll customization (rbyers/vollick)

pm

  • rendering pipeline (ojan)
  • Passing data between custom phases (style, layout, paint). Also do want namespacing of that data? (shans)
  • some tasks need info from outside the element (e.g. nearest ancestor scroller, margin information from descendants, etc.) - how do we incorporate feeding this information to the elements that need it and what limits should be emplaced? (shans)
  • prioritization of effort - we think that Custom Paint and Properties & Values are good areas to prioritize because they’re simpler than other areas and can independently provide value (shans, ian, tab)
