Specification status report for TPAC 2019

[LJWatson]

Please can you respond to this comment with a brief specifications status report for the WebApps meeting at TPAC. The report should address the following:

• 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?
• What do you want to achieve for your spec in the next two days (of breakout sessions)?

We're tracking these status reports in WebApps issue #19

Thanks.

What progress has your spec made in the last 12 months?

• overhauled much of the spec to clarify various algorithm and examples - thanks to @Johanna-hub.
• added a significant number of web platform tests, and linked to within the spec - again, thanks to @Johanna-hub. However, we still need to go through Test coverage #119 and check what's missing.

Is anything blocking your spec from moving to CR?

Bugs and things that need discussion:

• lock() should not fail if another lock() is called in the change event lock() should not fail if another lock() is called in the change event #184

• related: double check lock(), event, re/unlock() behaviors Doublecheck lock(), event, re/unlock() behaviors #151

• Promise for unlock()? Promise for unlock()? #104
• unlocking during event dispatching is undefined unlocking during event dispatching is undefined #173
• Reliability of angle Deprecate angle? #162

Cross spec integration. In particular the following need a bit of work:

• Deal with fragment navigation
• Clarify in which animation frame task events are fired
• Improve hooks with Page Visibility.
• Link Screen Orientation with Fullscreen more cleanly
• Clarification on animation frame task
• Page visibility transition can fire when false/true/false happens within a frame
• Clarify how to initialize the screen orientation Clarify how to initialize the screen orientation #145

I labelled the above "cross doc". These are not really blocking or preventing interop.

If yes, what is your plan to unblock it and do you need any help?

Chair can probably help by seeing if we can get the Safari folks onboard.

iOS supports:

• Face up and face down Face up and face down #168

What do you want to achieve for your spec in the next two days (of breakout sessions)?

@mounirlamouri and I need to sort out the blocking stuff, assuming we get some time together during TPAC.
