This was discussed briefly at the previous meeting, perhaps un-minuted.
The meeting notes for Jan 29th have a section where ecmarkup/down is introduced and discussed somewhat, but there's no decision regarding its use.
The basic plan is to develop the spec on GitHub, using [Ecmarkup] and [Ecmarkdown]. It will take pull requests, have a master branch that you can view (and implementers should view, to see any bug fixes made since the Ecma version), etc.
Cool. That should improve some processes.
Brian did a prototype conversion a while back, based on an older draft and an older dialect of Ecmarkup (no Ecmarkdown); you can find that at https://github.com/bterlson/ecmascript. I believe the current status it that we're waiting for the "final" GA-submitted version before doing the real conversion, since Allen is making editorial tweaks and bug-fixes up until the deadine. Once that's done we'll use some mutated version of Jason's [converter] and start iterating and tweaking from there.
I'll probably volunteer to check the result, since I have a converter that's independent of Jason's. (It starts with the PDF rather than the docx.)
Unlike the current process, the post-ES2015 spec process requires two shipping implementations before a feature is integrated into the spec. While we're waiting for that, we anticipate proposal documents to prepare for integration by being written as Ecmarkup/Ecmarkdown spec deltas,
So not as git branches of the spec? -Michael _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
