[web components] proposed meetings: 15 dec / 29 jan

[Chaals McCathie Nevile]

Hi folks,

in the poll we ran, there were only about 10 responses, and the preference  
split was pretty even. I also forgot to make a place where people could  
provide their name :(


Our proposal is to look for a host on 15 December on the West Coast, for a  
meeting primarily focused on Shadow DOM, and another on 29 January in the  
Bay area for one around Custom Elements. The agenda can be adjusted to  
take account of people who are unable to travel for both of these, moving  
items from one to the other if necessary, since *many* but *not all*  
people are interested in both topics.


If people are seriously uncomfortable with this proposal, and want to  
argue for an alternative, please speak up - and if you're planning to  
attend either, please reply to this thread, privately to me, or add your  
name to the meeting pages with a Pull Request:


https://github.com/w3c/WebPlatformWG/blob/gh-pages/meetings/15decWC.md
https://github.com/w3c/WebPlatformWG/blob/gh-pages/meetings/16janWC.md

Offers of hosting will be very gratefully received. We need a room for  
about 20 people, electricity, wifi, coffee/tea/snacks, lunch, and a  
speaker/mic setup for connecting remote participants.


And of course agenda…

cheers

Of the four issues listed there:

I'd like to resolve 3 and 4 ASAP since we're pretty close.  I don't think we 
necessarily need an in-person meeting to do that though.  If anything, it's 
probably more helpful to have discussion over mailing lists so that each person 
can spend as much time as needed to understand / come up with examples and 
proposals.

For 1, we had a rough consensus on how current focus model (in particular focus 
ordering) should be changed to support shadow DOM during TPAC.  Namely, we 
would create a new tab index "scope" at both shadow roots as well as slots, and 
follow the composed tree order for tab ordering.  I think someone should 
document that first.

I just started working on 2 but I probably won't have a time to come up with a 
proposal until mid December.


So if you guys can't make it, I don't think we necessarily need a shadow DOM 
meeting in December.

What outstanding problems are you thinking of?

Again, not I, but Hayato Ito raised these. I just happen to agree. He
emailed this list on November 2:

As mentioned before, I and others from Mozilla not in the US are
unlikely to make December 15. There's a big Mozilla event the entire
week before and I doubt folks want to keep trucking. But given how far
along Shadow DOM is perhaps attendance is not important. After all,
Hayato Ito stressed in an earlier email that to make the meeting
worthwhile we'd need some new proposals to address the quite hard
outstanding problems and I haven't seen any of those thus far.
