Status report and planning for TPAC 2021

[LJWatson]

TPAC will be virtual again this year. There will be a WebApps WG meeting at some point between 24 and 29 October.

There are two things we need you to do in the meantime:

1. Let @marcoscaceres and I know before 17 September if you plan to hold a specification specific meeting (in addition to the general WebApps WG meeting)
2. Post a specification status report before 30 September

Your specification status report should include:

• What progress has your spec made in the last 12 months?
• Is anything blocking your spec from moving to CR?
• If yes, what is your plan to unblock it and do you need any help?

Reminder that the WG is meeting on Tuesday 26 October 2021, 9PM to 11PM UTC.

It would great if someone could give an 5 minute update on the state of this spec.

These are the issues I would like to nail down for CR:

issue #95 : visual vs. layout viewport -- tentatively decided in favor of visual; objections? issue #386 : how to define content clip -- not currently a compat issue, just need to find the right spec language issue #432 : clarify isIntersecting when thresholds does not contain zero -- a hair-splitting but important issue, waiting for feedback...

Also for discussion: V2 has been shipped in chromium for ~2 years, and usage is ~4.5% of page loads. Apple has expressed willingness to accept WebKit patches to implement this. There is no formal spec position from Mozilla; prior discussions involved dbaron, who has since switched teams. Update from Mozilla?

I'd like to discuss #431 if there's time.

Closing as done...
