Todd: current state is that Firefox implements the normative
state
Ilya: I missed the point on state change on unload
... everyone except FF missed it
Todd: so should the spec stay the same or not?
Ilya: we have a mixed of implementations now
... I see Boris' point that subscribing to 2 events isn't
convenient
... we could say that everyone should implement the spec
... I didn't find any reason in chrome on why it wasn't
implemented
Yoav: guessing that safari is using the same old implementation
from webkit
... so same reason
todd: I'm tracking this down in MS and my guess it's an
omission
... will keep looking
Ilya: we don't see any issue in implementing but it's low
priority
todd: agreed. it's silly to cut it when we all shipped the spec
together
Ilya: to clarify: this is about firing the hidden transition on
unload. we would still remove the unload state
... the text is there but I can make it explicit
Todd: sounds good to me
... ditto it will be low priority in edge as well
... 6 to 9 months to get to it
Ilya: I'll add an additional note to the spec
plh: should we wait to publish a new rec or wait for
implementations to catch up?

Ilya: Ross addressed most of the feedback in his PRs
<igrigorik>
[18]https://github.com/w3c/requestidlecallback/pull/35
[18] https://github.com/w3c/requestidlecallback/pull/35
Ilya: lots of clarification but no material change to the API
... the changes look good to me
Todd: I need to make sure the processing model got fixed, ie
not tied to Blink model
Ilya: I believe we did but open a separate issue if not
Todd: ok, I'll look at the PR and see to merge
Resource Timing
Todd: almost ready to send some tests to plh
... and we'll go from there
Primer
<ToddReifsteck> a. When will next Primer draft occur? ANSWER:
Primer repo-- [19]https://github.com/w3c/perf-timing-primer
Primer can be viewed at--
[20]http://w3c.github.io/perf-timing-primer/index.html b. What
are next steps for linking/feedback?
[19] https://github.com/w3c/perf-timing-primer
[20] http://w3c.github.io/perf-timing-primer/index.html
plh: next step is for people to look at it and see if we can
publish as a working group note
todd: where will it be linked from?
plh: wherever we want
todd: ok, we'll come back to it in 2 weeks
HR Time
<ToddReifsteck> a. Can we merge?--Current Document
[21]https://github.com/w3c/hr-time/pull/14
[21] https://github.com/w3c/hr-time/pull/14
plh: I think we should merge.
Todd: ok
ilya: sound good
plh: ok, I'll squash the edits and then do a merge
Preload

<ToddReifsteck> a. Allowing empty/invalid ‘as’--
[23]https://github.com/w3c/preload/issues/36
[23] https://github.com/w3c/preload/issues/36
Yoav: 2 issues in it
... should we allow invalid or empty as values?
... we could special case empty values but seems weird
... main concern with invalid values is that devs will set the
wrong values and will have a hard time figuring why their
resource is low priority
... we can mitigate that on the console
Ilya: one of the criteria is to allow to do fetch with passing
as. we're tied to it closely.
... the default is to do a low priority fetch
... so we could reject invalid types, but would we fail the
fetch?
... the UA could issue a warning but shouldn't reject it
... and we should allow empty value, as a declarative XHR
Yoav: ok. now for CSP directives
Ilya: in previous iteration, we have many more values for as
... CSP is not to block request but to block consuming
responses
... not ideal but we don't break anything like that
... if we want to enforce CSP on preload we have some choices
yoav: besides the impl issue, the problem with the generic
fetch, devs will have to declare their resources twice, ie
declare them up-front
... but if we want the various types, we could have scriopt,
worker-script, serivecxe-worker, so we can set the context
ilya: preload itself is not subject to CSP. there is no csp
policy that covers it
... I believe Mike West is ok with that
yoav: but if you want to prevent leaking data
... if you exempt preload from that, you cannot prevent data
leaks
... it could weaken CSP
ilya: ok, we should keep iterating
... maybe we need a different mechanism to enfore csp on
preload
yoav: I think we could extend type
... I'll open a new issue on github
HR Time
<ToddReifsteck> b. Need a changelist without translateTime so
we can publish REC [24]https://github.com/w3c/hr-time/issues/16
[24] https://github.com/w3c/hr-time/issues/16
plh: I'll make a branch
... one is a CR with translateTime and then, once moving to PR,
I'll publish a HR Time 3
Performance Timeline
<ToddReifsteck> a. Added performance entry buffer--
[25]https://github.com/w3c/performance-timeline/pull/49
[25] https://github.com/w3c/performance-timeline/pull/49
Todd: I'll need to review this
<ToddReifsteck> b. Any updated thoughts on buffering for
PerformanceObservers?

clusion (Should we move this to a GitHub issue?)
[26]
http://www.w3.org/2015/10/webperf-tpac2015-minutes#ptpo-conclusion
Plh: I'll create a github out of our TPAC discussion
next meeting
Todd, plh, and yoav will be available on 11/25
Todd will check with Ilya [and indeed, Ilya will be able to
make it]
