Replying to @null and @sgalineau

Yeah, in this case there are clear deficiencies in the review process.
Aaaand it’s a new TAG election! Two seats are up, four candidates. Time to vote (or get your AC rep friends to vote)! lists.w3.org/Archives/Publi…

Replying to @AutomatedTester

Yes. There has been talk about reforming that but it’s unclear how. I think your AC rep knows who to vote for :)

Replying to @tobie and @AutomatedTester

Yes it does count. Elections are often close things given the small number of voters. Convincing three people is big

Replying to @AutomatedTester

Remember that you have *two* votes to cast though!
@tobie So, are you going with @brackets? I just retried it — looks quite promising, but still found it frustrating.

Replying to @ginerlydia

Sure, it’s robin@berjon.com. I’m curious :)

Replying to @notwebsafe

The foundation is clearly very sound and exciting. It’s mostly lots of paper cuts, and some speed issues. @tobie @brackets

Replying to @_richtr and @richtibbett

That (great) line rings a bell. Inspired by something or am I just getting déjà vu?

Replying to @_richtr and @richtibbett

Well then it’s genius and isn’t getting anywhere near the number of RTs it justly deserves :)

Replying to @chaals

Hackable indeed, but there are pretty tall barriers to actually hacking on it, and not just from the learning curve. @richtibbett

Replying to @chaals

But so does the Internet! @richtibbett

Replying to @_richtr and @richtibbett

Time to brush up on your French: fondapol.org/etude/berjon-i…

Replying to @hsivonen

Because I’m not the publisher. That said I probably have the HTML source somewhere. @richtibbett

Replying to @hsivonen and @richtibbett

Note though that it’s an introductory level aimed at lawmakers — and I’d change tack on a number of things today.

Replying to @hsivonen and @richtibbett

I *think* that this is the source for the final version.

Replying to @_richtr and @richtibbett

The world never gets evenly upgraded at once. It’s a lot like the Web in that respect, except a whole lot bigger. @chaals

Replying to @_richtr and @richtibbett

It still matters so long as that’s how laws are implemented. Like saying browsers are irrelevant because standards. @chaals

Replying to @null and @marcosc

Complex syntaxes in attributes is generally a recipe for pain. Please no.

Replying to @xmlprague

ooh, thanks, I'd forgotten to write up mine on Distributed Extensibility (Finally) Done Right.

Could dark matter be hiding in plain sight in existing experiments? arstechnica.com/science/2013/1…

Replying to @jirkakosek and @xmlprague

Yeah, you’re right, I’ve toned it down :) System says «submission is not complete» Is that because no paper?

Replying to @jirkakosek and @xmlprague

Or is it because «Conflicts of Interest»? I can access that, but I can’t change anything on it!

Replying to @jirkakosek

Ok, thanks!

Replying to @fgeorges

Thanks for the vote of confidence, but I'll go to @xmlprague anyway :-) Also, a tip: bribe the committee, not the conference.

Replying to @erlangsec

It's certainly an interesting feature, but people need to enforce their own password rules — we shouldn't prevent that.

Replying to @erlangsec

<input type=password> now supports minlength, and you can marry that with a pattern for sure.

Replying to @erlangsec

The problem is agreeing across all the Web on what password strength is. That idea is still changing a lot!

Replying to @erlangsec

Yes, but there is resistance because if something wrong is added then it has to be maintained forever.

Replying to @erlangsec

The best option would be a JS library that becomes almost universal; then bake that into the platform.

Replying to @erlangsec

It’s an option, but the first thing that happens next is devs complaining they’re getting different results per browser :)

Replying to @erlangsec

I don’t think it’s an old discussion, but if you have the energy and desire I encourage you to keep pushing it.

Replying to @erlangsec

You could make a proposal and send it to public-html@w3.org or whatwg@whatwg.org.

Replying to @erlangsec

More than a solution, try to be very clear about the use cases and the real-world problem you want to solve.

Replying to @erlangsec

A pleasure any time :)

Replying to @bslayton

No, I ended up writing my own validator, and then eventually ditching Couch. I can probably dig up the code if it helps.

Replying to @hober

Does it travel to WG meetings? Please?

Replying to @bslayton

Glad to hear you found something that works, and best of luck!

Replying to @null and @ndw

which OS are you planning on?

Replying to @null and @ndw

Hmmm. I'm not sure if I'm annoyed by OSX enough to switch to Linux just yet. Though it surely is getting closer.

Replying to @simonstl and @ndw

Yes, please write up some kind of migration diary that we may learn from your brave exploration of yonder platforms.

Replying to @simonstl

My biggest concern is the text editor, but @ndw won't be helpful on that front :-)

Replying to @dret

Apparently that stops with Mavericks. But it doesn't run TextMate, which is a problem, so I need a plan!

I wish jQuery had existed in Camus and Sartre’s time. It would have made XXth century philosophy more interesting.

Replying to @bortzmeyer

That would just break at least half the Web though. I see deployment as quite unlikely :)

Replying to @hsivonen

Your sense of humour Henri, it really cracks me up! @andreasbovens @mathias

Replying to @bortzmeyer

There are differences of scale though. Not loading HTTP dependencies from HTTPS pages breaks stuff, but not impossibly much.

Replying to @bortzmeyer

Turning off cookies and scripts for the whole non-HTTPS Web would break, well, most of the Web.

Replying to @bortzmeyer

For some value of less crap :) Most of the Web that would still work would be Facebook, Twitter, etc.

Replying to @anowodzinski and @fredck

It's not the end, it's just a pointer to the people who are actually working on that part :)

That, and it’s also unclear on the type of interoperability that’s needed, and completely off about the relationship with the Web.
