Widget DigSig spec: test suite status
AB: the Test Suite wiki (
[16]http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/wiki/WidgetTesting#Widgets_1.0:_D
igital_Signature_spec ) contains some info about DigSig. What is the
status of the DigSig test suite?
[16] http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/wiki/
WidgetTesting#Widgets_1.0:_Digital_Signature_spec
MC: I have not been working on it
... Kai and Dom started
... but they haven't done anything in the last two months
AB: does any anticipate participating in this test suite?
MC: yes; expect Opera to contribute tests next year
... but there is a lot of work to do
... must go thru ever assertion in the spec
... and create a test case
... Not sure how much has been done by Kai and Dom
... perhaps they have discussed it in the MWTS WG
... The spec isn't written the same way P&C is so it's a bit more
work to generate test assertions
<scribe> ACTION: barstow to follow-up with MWTS WG re the Widget
DigSig test suite re their plans, status, etc. [recorded in
[17]http://www.w3.org/2009/12/17-wam-minutes.html#action01]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-471 - Follow-up with MWTS WG re the Widget
DigSig test suite re their plans, status, etc. [on Arthur Barstow -
due 2009-12-24].
AB: I'll plan to provide an update re MWTS on Jan 7
MC: I'll also follow-up with Kai
AB: anyone else on DigSig test suite for today?
Widget DigSig spec: implementation status
AB: the Implementation wiki (
[18]http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/wiki/WidgetImplementation )
contains some info about DigSig. Is there any other Public info
about DigSig implementations we can add?
... is there anything else to add here?
[18] http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/wiki/WidgetImplementation
[ silence ]
<fjh> what do we need to do with andreas?
AB: anything else on this topic for today?
FH: I think Andreas is asking for some help
... he is looking for a CA
... perhaps there is some process that needs to start
... I'm not quite sure how W3C would work with him
AB: is there anything from previoius XML DigSig interop that can be
used?
FH: just use openssl
... perhaps he can move his stuff into the WG's space
MC: have you looked at Andreas' work?
FH: perhaps he's just offering the service
... and we need to wait for another impl
<scribe> ACTION: barstow respond to the 21-Oct-2009 email from
Andreas re Widget Dig Sig [recorded in
[19]http://www.w3.org/2009/12/17-wam-minutes.html#action02]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-472 - Respond to the 21-Oct-2009 email
from Andreas re Widget Dig Sig [on Arthur Barstow - due 2009-12-24].
AB: anything else on DigSig for today?
[ no ]
URI spec: status of LC comments
AB: comment tracking document is (
[20]http://www.w3.org/2006/02/lc-comments-tracker/42538/WD-widgets-u
ri-20091007/doc/ ). What is the status of Larry Masinter's replies
to your responses Robin?
[20] http://www.w3.org/2006/02/lc-comments-tracker/42538/WD-
widgets-uri-20091007/doc/
RB: LM has accepted 1 clearly
... not replied to some
... a few appear to be disagreements and I replied to those
AB: I suspect we may not get closure here until January; is that
your take too?
RB: yes. We need more discussion.
AB: anything you need from the WG?
RB: nothing specific
... everyone should feel free to respond
AB: anyone have any comments about the exchanges so far?
[ no ]
URI spec: scheme registration
AB: Robin, what's the status of registering the widget: URI scheme?
RB: I believe we should wait until we are in CR before making the
registration request
... must have a stable spec
... We will have some process to follow
... specific mail list for discussion in IETF, etc.
... I had hoped there was a "fast track" for scheme registration but
there isn't
AB: your proposal to wait until CR before making the registration
request makes sense to me
... so that will be our Plan of Record
... anything else on this topic?
[ no ]
View Modes Media Features spec
AB: one or two calls ago, Marcos mentioned a document by VF re the
VM-MF spec ( [21]http://lab.vodafone.com/w3c/vmmf-20091201.html ).
What is the status of this spec vis-a-vis the WG?
[21] http://lab.vodafone.com/w3c/vmmf-20091201.html
RB: this was developed as a suggestion
... I think we should consider it as a WG input
... we should accept what make sense
... it comes from people that are using the technology
... so it is based on real use case
... think it's a good input
... so I am in favor of integrating it
AB: is the idea the interfaces would be added to the VM-MF spec?
RB: no, I think those interfaces should be considered for VM-I
... those interfaces are pretty simple
... think we could add them to VM-I
AB: clear message for the group is that this input is for both the
VM-MF and VM-I specs
... not sure how we want to handle this process-wise
... if people don't comment otherwise, the Editors should feel free
to take the good stuff
... is this about right?
RB: yes
MC: yes; it's an input for discussion
... we need to evaluate the input
... it is indeed based on real use cases
... yes, we should target them at the right specs
AB: an action for everyone to review that input by Jan 7
<scribe> ACTION: barstow follow-up on the VF VM-MF thread and ask
people to submit comments on the proposal [recorded in
[22]http://www.w3.org/2009/12/17-wam-minutes.html#action03]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-473 - Follow-up on the VF VM-MF thread and
ask people to submit comments on the proposal [on Arthur Barstow -
due 2009-12-24].
AB: anything else on view modes for today?
[ no ]
Updates spec
AB: last week Marcos said he was planning to have the Updates spec
ready for a new WD publication and it would include all of the PAG's
recommendation. Marcos, what's the status?
MC: I've done a lot of work on it but it isn't ready yet
... still trying to work about some of the model
... Robin and I have had some offlist discussions
... One issue is where updates are done i.e. local disk or just from
the Web
... perhaps each should model should have its own spec
... currently, the spec just covers updates over HTTP and a local
storage medium
... thinking about changing the scope to only cover the HTTP case
AB: any comments about that?
... I will need to get some internal feedback
... but wrt the publication issue, I have no problem with delaying
publication until we think we are ready
MC: we've only done a FPWD so it's still not very well fleshed out
... would prefer to have something more concrete before making a new
pub
AB: that's OK with me
... so we can expect a proposal from you in early January?
MC: yes
AB: anything else on this spec for today?
[ no ]
AOB
<darobin> yes
AB: any topics for AOB?
... I don't have
BS: as I mentioned to some of you already, I am changing jobs at
Orange
... consequently, I will not attend widget calls anymore
... I am not sure yet who will be a permanent replacement
... but we have identified a temporary replacement
RB: we will miss you!
<timeless_mbp> yeah, we'll miss you
AB: thanks very much for your participation Benoit!
... best of luck in your new job!
BS: Best of Luck to you to get the specs DONE!
Arve: yes, good luck Benoit
AB: happy holidays and happy new year
