Note Charter Proposal Anne van Kesteren (Tuesday, 2 October).
for reference: DBWG group for the task force
progress:
I have completed one-third. Sean Fraser, July 16, 2007.
24 Apr threaddidn't seem to show much.
at one point the charter did say a total 10%, which was reviewed by the Webkit team, and everyone involved agreed was better. Ian Hickson 15 Mar 2007 14:27:30 +0000
See also webkit blog discussion. The text from that version of the charter is:
The HTML Working Group's work will be considered a success if there are multiple independent complete and interoperable implementations of its deliverable that are widely used (with a total market share, measured by at least two widely recognized reporting organizations, of 10% or more of the Web browser market).
Changing the charter at this point is expensive, but that requirement is perhaps worth adopting by WG decision.
See also examples/test in Dailey 20 MarHixie replies that "This is a known, long-standing bug in Opera." Where is it known? Is it acknowledged by Opera?
Today, <object> is probably the least interoperable element in HTML. Asbjørn Ulsberg 19 Mar 2007 22:04:32 +0100
Indeed, object was standardized prematurely (lesson learned from HTML 4 WG chairing, let's hope). Test cases and story telling (use cases)...
there should I think be a requirement in the specification that implementors provide a way to manually add and modify markup in the edited text, so that there is always the opportunity to add or modify information in a way that is not supported by the editor. Laurens Holst

Note HtmlTestMaterials
These are claims about interoperability problems that I'd like to see explored in the form of test cases:
See van Kesteren 14 Mar for pointers to some more test materials; Graham replies with a pointer to some encoding tests.
Hunt 20 Mar 2007 takes issue with a number of XHTML 2 features; a reply from Holst makes a number of compatibility claims. It would be useful to see these subtantiated by test cases.
Chair solicits advice on these, but doesn't delegate them to WG decision.

Note Connolly's msg of 15 Aug
A chair's job is to see that each persons time is well spent. Meeting time is very valuable; for example, with 12 people in a meeting, five minutes is one person-hour. Good records preserve the value of the time spent in meetings. Seven Sins of Deadly Meetings, By: Eric Matson, Fast Company April/May 1996, Page 122

Ian Hickson's message of 27 March requests
An 18 April message clarifies that this request regards each agendum.
Meanwhile, of course, the teleconference medium is tangibly different from email in a number of ways. For example, in the teleconference survey, we find comments such as:
The current tidal wave of comments backwards and forwards appear to make little progress, is unfocused, and contains many comments that are treated as correct just because nobody bothers to refute them.Bob Hopgood
A teleconference allows for straw polls and such to be taken in seconds, where they take days or weeks by email.
