link Bug triage

jQuery Core Team Meeting – Jul 15 2013

Attending: DaveMethvin, orkel, timmywil, m_gol

link Switchover to Bower (timmywil)

  • Change is made for master and 1.x-master
  • Working for everyone?
  • Issues?
    • Our build process with bower is fine, Sizzle and QUnit
    • Can't publish jQuery to Bower yet tho
    • Need to wait until they are released
    • Current Bower package forces Migrate on everyone
    • Wait for Bower update

link npm version

  • need a change to module.exports, wait for 2.0.4

link Problems with Jenkins/testswarm

  • Post to .html pages is too error prone
  • Causing AJAX fail
    • Create a PHP-based page to get test files (dave)

link jQuery 1.11/2.1

  • Dave didn't summarize the doc yet
  • make .ready() optional in its own module
    • solves the cross-dependency issue nicely!

jQuery Core Team Meeting – Jul 08 2013

Attending: DaveMethvin, orkel, timmywil, jaubourg, gibson042, rwaldron

link 1.10.2/2.0.3 release

  • Any problems? None reported

link Problems with testswarm

  • ngnix not configured properly, 502 on post to static pages
  • long term problem
  • what can we do to fix soon?

link jQuery 1.11/2.1

  • https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oQ966Lq9szqP41BehdlmAJV33lgNcrE0C0tktLvIz5s/edit
  • (action items and conclusions below summarized from meeting discussion)
  • requestAnimationFrame - Do not pull into core, gnarf has a plugin for people who want it and we'd still break a lot of existing code if it was the default
  • Alternative animation API (initially a plugin) - leave to third parties
  • Alternative AJAX implementation - jaubourg to noodle over
  • Deferreds and Callbacks optional modules - yes, after AMD is settled
  • make .ready() its own optional module - yes, and discourage its use
  • Use AMD - yes, timmywil is on it
  • Deprecate/remove jQuery.support? - Can't remove, but move feature detects into their respective modules and make them lazy, reduce forced layouts; next step to be done after initial AMD is finalized
  • Avoid offsetHeight/offsetWidth completely - yes, mikesherov?
  • Attach data directly to elements
