jQuery Core Team Meeting – Jul 07 2014

Attending: markelog, m_gol, DaveMethvin, mikesherov

link $.xhr strawman

• https://gist.github.com/dmethvin/43ffd1c743554e5c50ae

• Feedback?
• Always have $.xhr return a Promise? Deferred? thenable?
• Others can promisify using the node-like callback
• No consensus here
• markelog to prototype some things for the next meeting

• Continue to enhance $.ajax?

• e.g. https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/1541
• (no progress events in Promise so how would we support in $.xhr?)

link Download builder in 1.12/2.2?

• Yes, or No?
• Need to be able to test individual modules
• Use jQuery UI builder as a guide

link Trac sucks

• But moving to GH issues would be really hard
• https://github.com/trustmaster/trac2github might be worth a look
• Need to maintain Trac and move to 1.0
• Dave to put out blog post call for Trac help

  • m_gol restarted
• Migrate: button.attr("value", val) failing, jQuery 1.8 or older
