  • Attending: Todd Parker, John Bender, Gabriel Schulhof, Jasper de Groot, Anne-Gaelle Colom

link Todd

  • Download builder - released
  • Device donation page - done
  • 1.1.1 final - released today!
  • 1.2 alpha - final tweaks underway, hoping for alpha late next week
    • code review (Bender and Ghislain) - done
    • speed: takes 1-2 seconds to open the most minimal popup which is too slow. Suggestion: change the default transition to “none” from “fade” which seems to go much faster. Look for other optimizations.
    • default styling - done (thanks Jasper!)
    • add position option to center the popup over various thing (link, window, selector)
      • data-position-to=”origin|window|selector”
      • origin is the default (the link you click to open it)
    • Android 2.3.x nav issue (Gabriel) - fixed
    • Gabriel to look at dealing with the nav dependency with popup to remove this requirement, may be added post alpha but before RC
    • Add 3 events for popup to hook into popups for customization
      • "popupbeforeopen", "popupafteropen" and "popupafterclose"
    • change log in progress (thanks mauriceG) - http://test.jqmobile.de/commit12a.html
  • Site re-templating for the conference - met with Richard, Todd is working on porting over the static pages, Richard to port the blog, then we need to make CSS changes
  • Roadmap - Todd to start sketching out based on UI discussion
    • UI and mobile will stay separate for foreseeable future
    • Share a lot of code and infrastructure between projects

link Gabriel Schulhof

  • https://github.com/jquery/jquery-mobile/issues/4595 We publicly support changePage with changeHash: false, but we don't support navigating to the page inserted with changeHash: false We could document that, if people do push pages into urlHistory with changeHash: false, then they're on their own, or we could help them out by displaying the last page in a changeHash: false sequence when going back, and displaying the last changeHash: true page when navigating forward, like so:
1
2
3
4
5

8
╭─⬎ ╭─⬎ ╭─────────────⬎ ╭─⬎ ╭─⬎ going forward
███→███→███→▒▒▒→▒▒▒→▒▒▒→███→███→███
⬑─╯ ⬑─────────────╯ ⬑─╯ ⬑─╯ ⬑─╯ going back
███: page added with changeHash: true
▒▒▒: page added with changeHash: false
  • Images inside popup: Let's provide an "opening" signal to give app devs the opportunity to size the popup contents before the in-transition starts.
  • Work on making unit tests pass in FF.
