| 19:30 | smaug____ | wonders what has happened to structured cloning stuff |
| 19:30 | <smaug____> | way harder to read than the old version of the spec |
| 19:33 | <smaug____> | these days it is totally unclear what should happen when getters throw exceptions |
| 20:35 | <gsnedders> | SimonSapin: do you me to just fork python-webencodings or do you want to transfer ownership of the repo? (or add me as an owner; w/e) |
| 20:36 | <SimonSapin> | gsnedders: please fork it, I’m thinking of marking a bunch of my repos as unmaintained at some point |
| 20:37 | <gsnedders> | SimonSapin: kk. just abandons the single issue there (from me, which is hardly a big deal :)) |
| 20:37 | <SimonSapin> | gsnedders: I’ve given you PyPI access |
| 20:37 | <gsnedders> | SimonSapin: thx! |
| 22:45 | <gsnedders> | When do we expect any parser to *not* prescan the byte stream to determine its encoding? |
| 22:46 | <gsnedders> | Given per the spec that prescan is "optional" |
| 22:46 | <gsnedders> | (This is relatively theoretical, given in practice even with it mandatory the length scanned is unpsecified, and can be zero, for example on a slow network) |
| 22:47 | <gsnedders> | (But it's not entirely: should html5lib have an option to turn it off?) |
