Move Media Playback Quality to FPWD or to HTML specification? #17

Open mounirlamouri opened 4 years ago

mounirlamouri commented 4 years ago

The specification is now widely implemented. We could either embrace the extension to the media section of the HTML specification and publish a FPWD or merge everything into the HTML specification and close this work. Unless there are important follow-ups we would like to do first?

Resolved during 2020-06-09 Media WG call: "send an official vote to check what the WG wants to do with regards to merging the specification" with an action on @tidoust to check the process for such transitions.

tidoust commented 4 years ago

For transitions considered here, in #11 and https://github.com/w3c/picture-in-picture/issues/156, the basic rule of thumb is that they will need to be discussed and approved by W3C Management and the WHATWG Steering Committee, since that touches on the MoU that both organizations signed.

In all cases, the group should start by document the changes that it may want to recommend.

Call for Consensus was sent to the mailing-list in September 2020 and triggered comments from @chrisn.

Call for Consensus concluded during 2020-12-08 call.

RESOLUTION: suggest to merge the Media Playback Quality specification to the HTML specification.

I will initiate the transition process internally.

I will initiate the transition process internally.

That transition process was pending renewal of the MoU between W3C and WHATWG. The new MoU is now in place. It mentions Media Playback Quality, albeit with a typo in the spec title...

The Media WG can now initiate the transition to the HTML specification as a result. This requires someone in the group to step up and create a PR against the HTML spec from the current spec (the "fun" part being that spec contents need to be converted to some extent to the syntax expected by the HTML authoring tool). Any volunteer? Or @mounirlamouri, is that something that you are willing to do?
