| 00:43 | <jgraham> | Is it correct that the spec now allows <blockquote> as a child of <header>? |
| 00:58 | <jgraham> | (I hope it is allowed as I think I have a reasonable use case) |
| 01:01 | <annevk> | seems like it |
| 01:37 | <Philip`> | http://blogs.msdn.com/brian_jones/archive/2008/02/29/brm-is-done-time-to-sleep.aspx and http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2008/02/29/BRM-narrative have surprisingly strongly contrasting views on how well the process worked |
| 06:19 | jwalden | grumbles yet again about forgetting +whatwg |
| 14:46 | <gsnedders> | d |
| 14:46 | <gsnedders> | ergh. |
| 14:47 | <gsnedders> | do we require an h1 to be present before an h2 in a document? |
| 14:51 | <Lachy> | gsnedders, I don't think so |
| 14:51 | <gsnedders> | nor do I |
| 14:52 | <gsnedders> | I just came across an (informative) example that had an <h6> after a <h2> |
| 22:03 | <gsnedders> | Standards truly suck. |
| 22:03 | <gsnedders> | Why do I bother trying? |
| 22:07 | <Philip`> | gsnedders: Because you are illogical and irrational? |
| 22:07 | <gsnedders> | Philip`: I'm not, though. |
| 22:07 | <Philip`> | That's a good enough reason for working on what you want to work on |
| 22:09 | <gsnedders> | I'm working with an IRI class. URI schemes are so badly spec'd. |
| 22:09 | <gsnedders> | dict is especially funny. |
| 22:10 | <gsnedders> | it uses : as a separator in the URI, which in one case occurs after word, but word doesn't prohibit a : from being in there |
| 22:11 | <gsnedders> | you seriously need AI to parse it. |
| 22:14 | <Philip`> | Oh, that sounds like suboptimal design |
| 22:14 | <gsnedders> | Yeah. It makes it rather hard to normalise in my PHP IRI class. |
| 22:15 | <gsnedders> | I guess I could just send an email to me everytime it happens, but it'd make the script rather slow. |
| 22:18 | <Philip`> | You could always assume that the intention was that unquoted words can't contain colons, but maybe that'd be too easy a way out of the problem :-p |
| 22:22 | <gsnedders> | Philip`: I can't claim to parse the URI scheme properly as spec'd though :P |
| 22:23 | <Philip`> | But nobody cares about specs as long as the programs they use don't break |
| 23:52 | <annevk> | gsnedders, standards suck, the goal is to make them suck less |
