add summary status section at top, updating some statuses, css style attributes
I'm currently (as of 2010-146) a Mozilla contractor working with Chris Blizzard and the web [[standards]] team, focused on specification work, especially around web applications user interfaces and social/identity open web technologies. I participate in standards related [[events]] for both official organizations like W3C, and grass-roots efforts like microformats and ActivityStreams. If you have feedback for these groups, let me know!
In particularSpecifications, efforts and summary status:* CSS** [[Tantek-Mozilla-projects#CSS_Style_Attributes|CSS Style Attributes]]: Achieved Candidate Recommendation (CR).

==== CSS3 UI ====
** write new CSS3 UI LCWD editors draft with only non-at-risk features based on above implementation evidence (or imminent implementation - kept at risk)
** write new UI Selectors FPWD editors draft with all new UI selectors (consider limiting to those with at least one implementation, any with less than 2 implementations, mark at risk up front)
** write CSS4 UI FPWD with:
*** stuff from CSS3 UI that only had one implementation (that we believe is worthy of standardizing, or at least one other implementer expresses interest on)
*** forward reaching properties/values to enable native-like interfaces
 
* collect/address new CSS3 UI LCWD issues as they are reported
** respond to all the commenters on issues with proposed resolutions (hopefully thus addressing their concerns and resolving the issues accordingly)
* WG processes for taking it to PR
 
* draft CSS4-UI WD with features that we want but didn't make into CSS3-UI
** previous CSS3-UI features that got dropped above
** other CSS features that are UI related in other CSS or other W3C specs
*** :placeholder pseudo-class. related: [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457801 bug 457801]
*** '''overflow-radius''' per implementation: Mozilla supports [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/-moz-outline-radius -moz-outline-radius] (no second implementation however - thus in CSS4 UI)
*** CSS3 Hyperlink
*** [[HTML5]] inputs/forms features that are presentation related
** new features
*** CSS portions of [[Gecko:FullScreenAPI]], e.g. the new pseudo-classes
*** new 'resize' values - e.g. 'grow-vertical', 'grow-horizontal'
**** Facebook uses some JS to add rows to text areas when you hit the end of the available space. It feels nicer than a scrollbar because you can see all of what you typed -- the height of the text area just grows and grows as you need it. It would be great to have 'resize' property values that allow the browser to auto-grow a textarea as a user enters data, e.g. 'grow-horizontal', 'grow-vertical'. 'grow-vertical' would emulate the current behavior that FB does with JS.

=== HTML5 spec improvements ===
Most of this has been moved to [[HTML5#spec_issues|HTML5: spec issues]].
 
Next: follow-up on each, determining next steps on rejected proposals.
==== waiting for HTML5 improvements ====
==== lower priority improvements ====
* <code>&lt;meter&gt;</code> - poorly named. would prefer something like "gauge" but that's potentially hard(er) to spell. this is a bit bikesheddy though so not a high priority.

And then: outstanding UI related issues:
 
===== prefix removal from -moz-border-radius =====
 
Currently Mozilla's border-radius properties are prefixed with -moz- and the following bugs/issues are preventing us from removing the prefix:
 
* '''% values on border-radius.''' There is existing content (themes?) that depend on the legacy moz-border-radius implementation of % values that depend on the % of *width* in both dimensions.
 
* '''clipping overflow and replaced elements.''' We don't currently clip overflow hidden and replaced elements (e.g. img, video, canvas) to rounded corners. We need to do to this for a proper/complete implementation that won't risk creating further legacy/backward compat problems.
 
Bugzilla bugs:
* [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431176 431176] - (border-radius) Tracking bug for remaining issues with CSS3 border-radius
*[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=451134 451134] - change -moz-border-radius* properties to css3-background names
