bump to f2

Tess: Breakout in Cupertino looked at this. As output from that, Yves filed 2 issues on their spec, which are both still open. Marked ours as "pending external feedback" waiting for those to be closed. But I haven't looked at this one at all. (Not sure who else was in that breakout.) I should look at the explainer. Do we want to do anything in terms of the open issues?

Tess: Related to this spec monkeypatching the regular gamepad spec, which it shouldn't. Looks like not any movement.

David: links to https://github.com/w3ctag/design-principles/issues/99

Tess: Nell's latest comment was a question to the TAG about what to do here -- Yves answered the specific question, I think it's a satisfactory answer. Should we file an issue on design-principles to handle this case in general? Should we do more?

David: I'm not wild about the registry idea; I guess a registry is better than partials, though.

Tess: A registry results in a central list, partials doesn't get you that. From a platform maintenance POV that's what we want. There are other problems with registries, but it's an improvement.

David: There is a question of whether it's a registry or a spec edit.

Tess: Yves is providing a specific answer for this specific problem, either answer would be fine. Any sufficiently small and bespoke registry is indistinguishable from spec editing.

David: It's whether it does/should go through a different process.

Tess: I'd probably prefer the spec editing process myself, but either works.

Tess: We should probably give some indication that this came up today and we're waiting on those issues to be resolved. Left a comment.

Tess: let's pick a new milestone

Alice: 3 weeks

(see minutes above)

Yves: I don't think it's a huge issue... The other issues about negative/positive seemed a bit more concerning. Issue #27 on their repo. They have to coordinate with the gamepad people. They marked this as pre CR so they must fix it before it before it goes to CR. Looks like they have agreed.

Sangwhan: some mixed opinions about the monkey patching.

Yves: I can live with it. We raised it. They've made an informed decision.

Sangwhan: they wanted to do it this way because it's unclear when the gamepad spec will go to CR. Technically, i think monkey patching is not great ergonomically.

Ken: things get out of sync.

Dan: but we are OK with it - I agree with Yves's comment that we have raised the issue. I think we should close, considering they are addressing both the issues that we've raised

Tess: We raised a couple issues and set it as PEF, few weeks ago we checked, and a couple hours ago they are still open. What should we do? Leave open or something else?

Tess: The issues are around the monkeypatching design.

Tess: Yves and Dan are both on Breakout C; I'd like each of them to take a look to see if they have ideas for what to do next here

Dan: Tess was happy to live with it thought it is a bit of a hack... but we have given our feedback

Ken: their issue #27 has "needs resolution" and Yves says we shouldn't close it...
