Now I just feel used... @russmaxdesign @hober
I tried to leave my sexy at home once, but it just kept chewing up the furniture. #tpac

if you get good replies on that I'd love to hear.
I'd love to hang out during the day, in the evening my wife arrives for a romantic time :-) @ndw

Baaaaaaad!
Any feedback on trying the Fire? Other than that the Surface has a gorgeous UI but it's just so big.
C'est vraiment un aéroport de seconde zone Lyon Saint Ex. Il y a des gares routières mieux équipées.
ouais enfin pas un seul DAB qui marche et pas un WC avec du papier sur 3 terminaux c'est fort !
This place we're staying at in Lisbon is not so much a flat as a slant. It's beautiful but I keep grazing door frames.
I reckon in this case I'd have to start shoring up the foundations and hope it doesn't throw the other buildings out of kilter :-)

not in the HTML WG though, we only do love there.
it's a great way to show just how useful standards are :-)
muahahaha!
I reckon we could start making some merchandise available.

After a week of TPAC and a week off, I'm in the process of catching up with email… Sorry if you've been waiting for an answer.
Un jour peut-être je comprendrais comment je me suis retrouvé inscrit sur la newsletter de boulisme.com.
@d_thevenin Congrats on the new job ;-)
@brucel Q. on IRC: "male grooming" what should i read into the fact that the char after the 'r' (UF72B) is in the PRIVATE_USE_AREA block?

I'd go with Sexy French Expert. @julien_igel
Don't be discouraged. The discussion is open between RICG and implementers, it will lead to *something* usable! @brucel
Check out TakeOff conference, which promises to be wicked cool: takeoffconf.com. Yours truly will be speaking there.

Oui c'est le masquage whois que je cherche — je ne trouve pas l'option chez Gandi.
Que Gandi sache, peut me chaut, je cherche juste à masquer le whois :)
Ah super je ne savais pas ça. Merci! Muahahaha, je vais pouvoir rigoler.
Oui j'ai vu cette doc mais elle ne m'a pas aidé, contrairement à Twitter 🌻😻
Ce qui limite ma capacité à critiquer une administration dont je dépend sans qu'elle ne me tombe dessus... @_fyr
Oui je sais, merci. Heureusement je pense que c'est un cas où le masquage devrait suffire (et tenir).
Oui c'est ça, merci :)
Oh c'est joli par ta fenêtre!

ouch. Been there, it took a while to get rid of the feeling my nose was crooked.
il ne suffit pas juste de leur coller la tribune de Despentes aux "objectifs"?
je préfère ne même pas te demander le lien ! Dans à peine quelques années on les aura tous oubliés. :-)
Ah. Indeed. Well we are left hoping that you'll recuperate better!
Trello looks a bit like a train wreck on mobile though. @garannm
An app that's not their web site? When are they from, 2009? @garannm
En plus, c'est tout à fait naturel :-)
Has someone made a tool similar to Can I Use but for AT? It would make support/deployment based arguments easier to back and check.

Au-delà des polémiques, je trouve que c'est un beau signe d'ouverture de l'UMP que d'avoir fait organiser leur élection par Martine Aubry.
It might be a good idea to get in touch with the CIU people, they have experience crowdsourcing this sort of stuff?
It depends on what you want to do. The test suites themselves are on dvcs.w3.org, so hg. But groups are moving to GitHub.
Good! You'll have to join the relevant group if you want to commit. There's an HTML Testing TF if you're into that.
BTW have you spoken with @hober about DAP? ;-)
I'll leave that decision in @hober's capable hands. But your name was mentioned at TPAC at some point :)
Have fun! Note that we've been thinking about reorganising the suite to make it easier to find stuff in there.
So any feedback about what you found easy/hard to find is welcome.
I'm not sure it was about street cred so much as about finding a Happy Volunteer™ @hober
Il y a des gens ici qui vont à l'évènement de la @CNIL sur la vie privée? cnil.fr/la-cnil/ip/vie…
Is there an XQuery DB that can parse & store HTML using proper HTML5 parsing? I see Zorba has something, but it's Tidy, not real parsing.
♥ 1↺ 1
I have a largish (~700MB) HTML corpus that I need to analyse, hopefully faster than always parsing and running jQuerys on it.
But I need it properly parsed as HTML. Tidy will change the syntax and parse as XML, so the Infoset will be different.
Would it be able to store to MarkLogic without serialising to XHTML in the middle? Because that won't work, sadly.
i.e. I need to query the real Infoset one gets from HTML parsing; that doesn't always round-trip through XHTML.
There will be small but real differences with script content and xmlns attributes (which I do see in the corpus). @ndw
E.g. I see a bunch of xmlns:fb in the corpus from people who use Facebook's scripts. That must not be parsed as an NS declaration.
For a subset of queries it would be good though — I just need to mull over whether it's large enough.
Ah, indeed, I'm not ever going to get local names of xmlns:fb am I. *sigh* Someone should make a tool that properly handles HTML *hint*
I'm operating on paciellogroup.com/blog/2012/04/h… I reckon I might be able to use ML with just the NS limitation. Pondering that. Thoughts welcome!
Oh, btw, it's a real world corpus of the top 10K sites so be warned that not all of it is, erm, necessarily tasteful.
I'm afraid that ship has sailed a long, long time ago :) I'm just in the trenches trying to marry good data to good tools! @al3xbrown
E.g. namespace declarations shouldn't be namespace declarations. See tweetthread with @ndw
Haha, I doubt all the power in the world could update that much legacy content :) @ndw
There's a bunch of other problems vs the XDM too, e.g. syntax for names and IDs.
Thinking about it, I reckon most/all of the XDM checks that make processing HTML impossible aren't needed for optimisation, right?
So I'm thinking there's no reason there couldn't be a "loose" XDM mode that could handle HTML as such.
I *wonder* if there's a business in indexing HTML documents (properly) with powerful querying abilities…
Aha, that's a lead. But as @ndw indicates, would the XQ then accept the likes of fn:id("42")?
XQuery could work just fine with the same relaxations applied I reckon.
If you want the corpus it's up at paciellogroup.com/blog/2012/04/h… :)
That's fine so long as you can fn:QName("", "xmlns:fb") and such — you can always compare with /*[…] instead @adamretter
In other words, having to be careful with some queries isn't a problem so long as it doesn't barf on weird constructs. @adamretter
That might trip it or in general?
A simple example from right now: show all img alt text highlighted in the context of surrounding text (if any).
Where surrounding text is any text before or after the img inside a block-level parent.
I'm trying to decide if alt text is used as replacement (as claimed in HTML5) or as a meta description (as claimed by WCAG).
Here's the relevant snippet from the JS I'm using gist.github.com/4118747
LOL :) I'm just generating the report — for the NLP parts I'm using a human being. @ndw
Yes, exactly. Lots of HTML DOMs.
That was just one example, there are many things that simply don't map very well to XML at all. @ndw
Looking at the logs from analysing a large corpus for img@alt usage on the top 10K sites, I'm surprised accessibility ever works at all :(
That's easier since I just need to grep :) 1844 instances over 84 sites out of 8881 from the top 10K. Now you know!
I don't know, I've always sucked at setting prices. I'd use it on and off but regularly. Yesterday it cost me 5 hours. @ndw
If you've tried writing (code, articles) on one of the 7" tablets I'd be interested in hearing your experience.
Even with a keyboard?
But presumably with a small external keyboard you could navigate more easily, e.g. with arrow keys, no?
I think that what I really want is a subnotebook to use in bed with a touch interface that Ashley can play with.
Yeah, I reckon SwiftKey could handle coding — been thinking about that.
I used my Palm III as a glorified notebook, but haven't really found something to match since.
Yeah, the Surface looks very interesting but at 10" it's a laptop, not a tablet :)
*looks* interesting :) I wouldn't put money on such an early release in any case.
A bit big and heavy, but certainly headed in the right direction. @graouts
Oooh, cool :-D Et je viens de voir passer Diana, c'est chouette ça, elle est cool.
Yes indeed :-D
We're looking at @w3c TAG elections with @slightlylate, @annevk, and @marcosc as new runners. What could possibly go wrong?

Ah, thanks for the input — you're the first positive feedback so far :)
Petit détail, mais c'est possible de mettre "W3C" dans le <h3> pour moi?
Super, merci! Rien d'urgent hein.
Yup it's maintained, and it's there because it predates most others, and also does the stuff we want.
You should hang out on IRC if you're working on this. irc://irc.w3.org:6665/testing or irc://irc.freenode.net/whatwg @odinho
On IRC? I use it for W3C, but that's staff-only. @graouts @odinho
There could be, it depends on a bunch of things. It's worth discussing with James IMHO. @odinho
Also dev.w3.org/html5/spec/com… (note "in its canonical case"). The former is linked from the markup attribute definition (…)
the latter from the IDL attribute definition. You get used to reading these things :)
T'es fou, on a un truc bien meilleur: on donne le gagnant, mais on ne publie jamais aucun détail. Comme ça, tranquille!
@tobie The pics you made for the camera project are really nice!
iPad only? Bo-ring! :)
Maybe mix both and build a watercolour webapp :)
You'll then need a screenshot app to show how cool it is.
DHTML! DHTML! Why did you have to leave?
I don't see that it would fire, no.
I've failed there too. File a bug if you can't dig it out :)
Nope, w3.org/Bugs/Public/en…
Yes, just pick the component (testsuite or HTML5 Spec). There's a different place for improvements: s/HTML WG/HTML.next/
Ah, I already hadn't understood that you meant src on the video — I thought you meant on track. It's unclear too btw.
No, keep'em coming!
There are two other candidates currently :) Feel like running?
In addition to the 3 miscreants previously mentioned, Ashok Malhotra and Glenn Adams. @hober
