Discussions

David: Minor things... APIs not designed very well for vertical texts. It's a feature in the HTML spec... nothing that's too big a deal here.
Dan: what is your recommendation?
David: lets see a respomse and make sure these things gets filed on HTML and see if there is a reaction there. Then we can probably close this issue.
David: Any one else has an opinion?
Dan: Let's not close before another TAG member has reviewed David's feedback
Peter: I agree with David and looking at it now. Seems that a few things are missing like x cap height etc. My main concern is that work happened in Houdini which then stopped because this was more complicated than expected. I would like to make sure that we have the right expertice in the room .
Dan: I feel that we need to get feedback from them before we close this off. Can you do that Peter, write into the comment?
Peter: Sure
Dan: Bump this a week and see if we get good feedback
Travis: We need to notify Fernand
