http://dlmf.nist.gov/5/7/ - MathML in (X)HTML, though it only sends that to Firefox and sends HTML4+PNGs instead to browsers like Opera

<Hixie>
i know
09:48
<Hixie>
i'm european
09:48
<Hixie>
but copying it doesn't make europe
09:48
<Hixie>
it makes a fake copy
09:48
<gsnedders>
Hixie: I know :)
09:48
<Hixie>
and that's just tacky
09:48

people should develop their own culture

not try to copy others

reloads the spec again, knowing Hixie may well have changed what he's implementing again :)
10:09
<Hixie>
ok bed time for me
10:10
<gsnedders>
g'nite
10:11
<gsnedders>
Hixie: You actually gone yet?
10:11
gsnedders
comes across one minor thing that makes no sense
10:11
<gsnedders>
Oh, wait, it does.
10:13
<anne-olpc>
the Dutch won!
10:14
<anne-olpc>
without zidane the French are not as good anymore it seems...
10:17
<Lachy>
can we make it a condition that people posting new bugs to bugzilla have actually read and understood the relevant section of the spec? Rob's last 2 bugs don't make sense.
10:17
Lachy
wonders how to enforce that
10:23
<anne-olpc>
i'd suggest not wasting your time on that :)
10:25
<Lachy>
yeah, but I don't want bugzilla to degrade as badly as the wiki did, or be flooded with totally useless non-issues
10:32
<MikeSmith>
Lachy: I also really don't want bugzilla to get flooded with non-substantial issues. but I think at least the for issues that are easily identifiable as instances where the person who raised them didn't understand the spec, those issues are quicker (I hope) for Hixie to notice and resolve than they would be if they were posted to public-html, and with interruption to fewer people
10:32
<MikeSmith>
I hope that's the case at least
10:35
<MikeSmith>
anyway, I was just dropping on to post the do's-and-don'ts message about bugzilla. I gotta drop off now
11:17
<Dashiva>
If Hixie gets too much noise from NEW bugs, couldn't we just throw in a step up to CONFIRMED? :)
11:18
<gsnedders>
Dashiiva: Like, GSNEDDERSTHINKSITSPOINTLESS?
11:18
<Dashiva>
Kinda like how the issue tracker had a limited amount of people who could add
11:31
gsnedders
notes he's got to the point where he can now write python well enough to write it without syntax errors
11:35
gsnedders
notes in this case either his impl. or HTML 5 is wrong
11:36
<gsnedders>
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'new_candidate_section' referenced before assignment
11:37
<Philip`>
"Let new candidate section be the section that contains candidate section in the outline of current outlinee. Let candidate section be new candidate section."
11:37
<Philip`>
Seems like it should be impossible to reference before assigning, since that's the only place it's used
11:37
<gsnedders>
And with how I've implemented it, that means there is no section that contains candidate section, which Hixie said should never happen
11:38
<Philip`>
Oh
11:40
<gsnedders>
The only outline I have is one for the body element
11:43
<gsnedders>
And that outline is empty
11:44
<gsnedders>
This is with <h1/><h2/><h2/>
11:50
gsnedders
thinks it's a spec bug
12:34
<zcorpan_>
so does ReadOnly mean silently ignore or throw exception?
12:37
<Dashiva>
It does seem like a candidate for a NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED
12:39
<zcorpan_>
how about const foo = 1; foo = 2;
12:39
<Philip`>
I think ReadOnly assignment (and DontDelete deletion) were just silently ignored, when I tested it for various canvas things
12:40
<zcorpan_>
Philip`: ok
12:49
<anne-olpc>
it does mean we have to implement actual const support, but that's ok I suppose
12:56
<othermaciej>
per the ECMAScript spec, assigning to ReadOnly properties is silently ignored
12:57
<othermaciej>
it is possible, of course, to invent a state besides ReadOnly
13:38
<asianCool>
anyone familiar with orbeon,i can save form using the builder
13:44
<Lachy>
I wonder whether what asianCool wrote was a question, or a statment directed at those familiar with orbeon
13:45
<Lachy>
either way, it doesn't make much sense
13:57
<asianCoolz>
hi all
14:00
<annevk>
hey, this is not the right place for orbeon questions
14:46
<gsnedders>
Hixie: ping
14:54
<gsnedders>
jgraham_: Do you have a working version of your outliner web UI?
15:41
<zcorpan_>
hmm, i guess i should escape the bugzilla discussion with rob
15:43
<Philip`>
If the discussion is not productive, it seems unlikely that it will become productive in the future, so it seems sensible to minimise its ability to harm productiveness in other areas
15:52
<zcorpan_>
Lachy: ul in p isn't conforming since the december content model change
15:53
<annevk>
I've yet to see the first productive discussion with RB
16:02
<Lachy>
zcorpan_, oops. you're right. I misread the spec.
19:47
<Hixie>
well so far the bugzilla idea has led to a whole lot of INVALID, WONTFIX, LATER, and NEEDSINFO resolutions.
19:47
<Hixie>
and no FIXEDs.
19:59
<Lachy>
Hixie, in bug 5753, although Rob's example was non-conforming, the same issue seems to apply to, e.g. <table><tr>.
19:59
<Lachy>
but you were right to mark the bug as invalid.
20:00
<Hixie>
with <Table><tr> you get an extra <tbody>, big deal
20:00
<Lachy>
yeah, I know. It's not a big issue.
20:01
<Lachy>
aargh, he reopened the object element bug again :-(
20:19
<Lachy>
can we revoke some people's right to reopen bugs, if they continually do so without providing substantial info?
20:24
<Hixie>
if they reopen without substantial i just reassign to mike asking for arbitration
20:24
<Hixie>
my query is for open bugs in the htmlwg component not assigned to mike
20:26
<Lachy>
ok, fair enough
20:26
<Hixie>
i especially liked his "Yes"
20:30
<Hixie>
wow he hasn't reopened an issue in several minutes now
20:43
<Dashiva>
Hixie: careful, you'll jinx yourself :P
20:53
<Dashiva>
So has anyone who isn't RB filed a bug yet?
20:55
<Hixie>
yes
20:55
<Hixie>
the first one wasn't rob burns'

is sad now
21:29
<gsnedders>
Hixie: Now, <h1/><h2/><h2/> seems to give the wrong outline
21:30
<gsnedders>
Actually, it doesn't.
21:30
<gsnedders>
I stopped developing for all afternoon thinking he'd found a major bug in the spec, but I've just realised the spec just does stuff in a different way
21:32
<Hixie>
i didn't pong you cos i didn't have time to work :-)
21:32
<Hixie>
i'm about to go
21:32
<Hixie>
i'll be back around 6pm my time
21:32

Hixie: I'll be asleep then :)
21:33
<Hixie>
send mail :-)

elif for starters, in end()
23:26
<Dashiva>
Needs more goto
23:30
<gsnedders>
Dashiiva: Are you just trying to be witty, or not?
23:30
<Dashiva>
I didn't know goto was valid python, so the former
23:31
<gsnedders>
Dashiva: I don't know if it is myself :)
23:37
gsnedders
dares attempt to create an outline for HTML 5
23:38
gsnedders
gets an exception
23:40
<gsnedders>
Hixie: I can't use the outline algorithm for the HTML 5 spec! It doesn't support @class='no-toc'!
