#816: CR Snapshot Review for EPUB 3.3

Visit on Github.

Opened Feb 13, 2023

こんにちは TAG-さん!

I'm requesting a TAG review of EPUB 3.3, EPUB Reading Systems 3.3, and EPUB Accessibility 1.1.

A review of these specifications was completed mid-way through 2022, but as we approach PR we have been asked to get another review and sign off for our latest CR snapshot. You can review the change logs for each document (linked below), but the majority of the changes made since last review have been editorial clarifications of existing features, additions based on review (specifically our addition of the Security and Privacy sections for each document), and clarifications based on test results.

Further details:

  • I have reviewed the TAG's Web Platform Design Principles
  • Relevant time constraints or deadlines: We plan to publish our CR Snapshot on February 21st, then go to PR on April 11 barring any issues.
  • The group where the work on this specification is currently being done: EPUB 3 Working Group
  • Major unresolved issues with or opposition to this specification: None

You should also know that...

We appreciate your feedback!

We'd prefer the TAG provide feedback as (please delete all but the desired option):

🐛 open issues in our GitHub repo for each point of feedback

Amy: the've left a list of issues and PRs... I'm asking if they can do a tiny bit more work...

Thanks for the summary list of changes for us to review. 

We appreciate the strengthening of the security and privacy sections.

We're finding it difficult to review the other changes based on links to PRs and issue discussions however. We'd like to be able to provide meaningful feedback that is useful to the WG. Could you put together a small explainer for the important changes, including what user needs have been addressed by them and why you ended up with the solutions you did? And if you have any specific questions or sections of the spec(s) it would be useful for us to focus on, could you let us know that as well?

Dan: lgtm

Dan: wendy got back to us - we could take this at face value and close.

Hadley: if we do that we could say "we don't have enough info".

Dan: can you leave that comment and set to "out of scope"? And close.

Hadley: OK.
