[svg-paths] Is this spec still a thing? #818

Closed saschanaz closed 3 years ago

saschanaz commented 3 years ago

The spec tries redefining SVGPathElement with members that have already moved to SVGGeometryElement in SVG 2 (pathLength, getTotalLength, and getPointAtLength). Is there still an intent to maintain it or is it simply obsolete?

I'm also interested in the status of this spec. @tabatkins do you know?

tabatkins commented 3 years ago

I'm guessing the answer is no; all of the editors have moved on to other things, and I think SVG2 holds all the same information adequately. But I'm not 100% certain.

tabatkins commented 3 years ago

This spec does contain the Catmull-Rom and Bearing commands that the SVGWG approved for addition at a previous meeting, which were not carried over into SVG2, tho.

saschanaz commented 3 years ago

Hmm, so it's safe to ignore the IDLs there. Good to know that, thanks!

tabatkins commented 3 years ago

Yes, it is.

Thanks Tab! I'll exclude this IDL from https://www.npmjs.com/package/@webref/idl
