link Jasper de Groot

  • Gabriel and I finished our work on CSS corner styling, branch is merged
  • reviewing and testing PR for new option clear button for text input https://github.com/jquery/jquery-mobile/pull/5281
  • pushed branch unprefixed-transitions with CSS for supporting transitions on IE10 - Mat is looking into transform3dTest() and validStyle() functions https://github.com/jquery/jquery-mobile/issues/4875
  • cleaned up branches (see also Basecamp post)
  • working on method demos for API docs
  • working on table widget CSS (styling)

link Anne-Gaelle Colom

  • api docs:
    • Changed select to selectmenu
    • Added example to silentScroll
    • Selectmenu now uses the generated examples for options
    • Some corrections/additions
  • Finally got a good understanding of how to attach things to widget events, which will help writing the docs.
  • Now need to update to a new version of grunt which will allow us to get automatically generated code examples for events (just like we can do currently for options).
  • Need to write the getting started with jQuery Mobile guide for the Learn site.

link Gabriel Schulhof

  • Added tests for form reset and select menu _destroy()
  • sequence test random timeout trackdown continues
  • Fixed some issues
    • Closed 4746 educating reporter on how to detect whether a widget has already been associated with a given element
    • Accepted 5287 (minor grammar fix in the demos)
    • Fixed 5288 based on the idea in PR 5290 by Krinkle
  • Failed to reproduce 5285 (function $.mobile.media is injecting a fake style and body, but not removing it, thus rendering the page invalid) by installing Ubuntu 12.10 in VirtualBox.
  • Short-circuited the unit test comparing our results from $.mobile.browser to core’s $.browser, because $.browser is gone in the git version of core
  • Jasper addressed most of the options-vs.-defaults in https://docs.google.com/a/intel.com/document/d/1n7ozvhQTLhBj6sPR-LYxuev3p8kcbHjlAM8EBMlQ8GE/edit … a few still need eyes

Attending: DaveMethvin, gnarf, timmywil, mikesherov
Time: Noon ET

Official Agenda:

jQuery 1.8.3 – Today!

  • Last call for patches, but I’d prefer none more patched

http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/12801

  • Already sizzle issue, ticket closed

http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/11290

  • Should we allow leading whitespace in $(”   <tag ..>”) detection?
  • I’m leaning NO
  • If it’s not a literal string, user should sanitize–or better, use $.parseHTML

Create $.select()? Could we just document the Sizzle entry point?

Mergatron status?

jQuery Mobile Team Meeting – Oct 25 2012

  • Attending: Todd Parker, John Bender, Jasper de Groot, Jason D Scott, Anne-Gaelle Colom, Gabriel Schulhof, Alex Schmitz

  • DC summit was a great success
    • Made a lot of progress on docs, have new contributors to that team to help Anne including Patrick Ashamalla, Alicia Lippert, Robert Bosse, Mutlu Tevfik Koçak, Mike Auteri and others
    • New developers helping out after the conference including Alexander Schmitz, Keith Pepin, Jonah Schulte, Greg Franko and others
    • Ralph Whitbeck will be helping out with mobile developer relations
    • Coordination with UI team underway on the tab widget re-factor slated for 1.4 which will be a converged widget for UI and mobile
  • ThemeRoller maintenance to transition from Tyler Benziger to Rafael Xavier int he coming weeks. Rafael will start work on porting TR over to Node.js so it can service both UI and Mobile
  • Work has started on 1.3 features for responsive design features
    • Key finding: baking CSS media queries (breakpoints) into our structure CSS will cause a lot of maintenance issues and prevent easy customization. We’re leaning towards providing copy/paste styles for common scenarios in demos and docs but not shipping this CSS as part of the library because these must be tuned to the content/layout/design of each site. Focus on education and demos. Simple example: if a site has a left nav that is 300px wide, our breakpoints won’t make sense because they would have been written with a full-width layout.
    • Responsive data tables - prototyping two modes: column chooser and stack to label/value pairs at narrow widths. https://github.com/jquery/jquery-mobile/issues/5093
    • Looking to add more real-world demos, like this Backbone example

link John Bender

  • Code review(s)
  • Started integration of nav work
    • surprise! odd behavior from replaceState in chrome
    • long haul
  • Putting off the containers work until next release it looks like

link Jasper de Groot

  • working on new docs in local branch; just plain code, layout can be added later suggest following structure:
    • About: Intro/Overview, Features, Accessibility, Supported platforms
    • Quick start guide
    • link to online API docs
    • Demos & Test suite dynamically create “view source” (Jasper) suggestion: don’t categorize by widget because demos can combine widgets, but use keyword tags
  • worked on slider full width; will open the PR this week after testing https://github.com/jquery/jquery-mobile/issues/5045
  • after that I will work on rewriting validStyle() and transform3dTest() to make transitions work in IE10 (CSS changes are ready)
  • could do a lot of triage because of the help of Alex!
  • suggest cleaning up branches
  • suggest theme CSS cleanup:
    • remove .ui-btn-corner-? classes except .ui-btn-corner-all (we don’t use them)
    • remove -moz prefixed border-radius rules from theme css

link Anne-Gaelle Colom

  • A few PRs from the summit (hopefully some of the people we met at the will continue to contribute, some did)
  • Tidying up API docs

link Gabriel Schulhof

link Ghislain Seguin

  • Summit, way cool - Bender we missed you
  • Reviewing gfranko’s backbone / requirejs example
  • Where are we at on the UI / Mobile convergence? I can help with that.

link Scott Jehl

  • working on responsive table widget. I’ve built a base widget and two extension modes: columntoggle and reflow. Columntoggle mode is better for dense data sets that need cross-column comparisons, while reflow is ideal for simpler tables, as all data is shown at all times, but it’s presented in different layouts.
  • Demos are in the “tables” branch, and up here: http://jquerymobile.com/branches/tables/docs/tables/
  • Also, Todd made a more stylized demo with sorting here: http://jquerymobile.com/branches/tables/docs/tables/stack-custom.html (nice work, Todd!)
  • Today I’m testing the table widget - so far, a11y is great on the reflow table. Duped labels are not read aloud in VoiceOver due to aria-hidden attributes

link Alexander Schmitz

  • Great to meet most of you at the summit and great to be on board!
  • Working on _workarounds extension for fixedToolbars to address variety of browser or platform specific issues with fixed position
  • Working on demos for using ui’s sortable and draggable
  • working on demo for turn by turn directions from current location using geolocation api
  • preparing for jQuery asia
  • Triage of stale issues!

link Jason Scott

  • Update the Sliding panels demo
  • Looking for JQM community (team members / dev relations / kick ass community leaders) based in APAC for a speaking role in November. Does anyone know someone?
