Minutes Telecon 2015-07-01

• Gecko now also has plans to ship some of css-logical-properties. Mozilla clarified the pieces they’ll be shipping.
• Resolved: Make position: fixed a full stacking context
  • Rossen will write the text change in place it in the Positioning spec. Bert will then take the same text and add it as an errata to CSS 2.
• The ability to create a big document listing all the modules is on the bikeshed issues list and therefore will happen at some point.
• Everyone agreed that there was a use case for language specific support for hyphenation and justification and that there are definitely times where you may want to style differently depending on if you can hyphenate text. There were concerns about the performance implications of checking for hyphenation support, but most group members believed there would be no significant change in performance. It was concluded that, though there are use cases, it wasn’t a high enough priority for implementation. Florian will keep the text in case the priorities change in the future.
• There were two primary issues raised for underlines in css-text-decor
  1. Do we allow auto to combine with left|right
  2. If left | right is specified alone, is the behavior in horizontal text under or auto
  • The proposed syntax seemed okay to everyone, but is dependent on the final solution to the above questions.
  • No consensus was reached and discussion will continue on the mailing list.
• There was some doubt as to if there would be any interest in CSS-speech, even if it is cut down to just speak and speak-as in the first draft. glazou will be reaching out to get more context to if it’s even possible to break out speak and speak-as.
• Resolved: New working draft for Display
