<tr class=r><td>1<td>
<p>The poster suggested that it would be more useful to use the media *groups*
defined in CSS2.1 [1]. E.g.
<pre>
   @media paged { ... }
</pre>
<td>Too late for this version. We should reconsider this for Media Queries Level 4.

<tr class=r><td>2<td>
Today we discussed how imprecision in device hardware results in
display widths and heights that are not *exactly* in line with the
nominal width and height. It was suggested that we should allow
some fuzz factor in media query matching for this reason.

<td>No change.

<pre>
Proposed changes:

   http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-mediaqueries/#device-aspect-ratio

   # In this specification, aspect ratio is defined as the number of
   # horizontal pixels over the number of vertical pixels.

   change to

   | In this specification, aspect ratio is defined as the horizontal
   | length of the device's display divided by its vertical length.


   http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-mediaqueries/#resolution

   # The 'resolution' media feature describes the resolution of the
   # output device, i.e. the density of the pixels.

   Add

   | When querying devices with non-square pixels, in 'min-resolution'
   | queries the least-dense dimension must be compared to the specified
   | value and in 'max-resolution' queries the most-dense dimensions must
   | be compared instead. A fixed 'resolution' query never matches a device
   | with non-square pixels.

   (Alternatively we could allow two values to query each dimension
   independently, but I don't think this is useful.)
</pre>
<td>Accepted.

'not' and unknown media types:

Section 3 says: "The presence of the keyword 'not' at the beginning of the
query negates the results."  Section 4 says: "Media queries involving
unknown media types are always false".

When I read that, the word 'always' led me to wonder whether or not unknown
media types trump the section 3 definition of 'not'.  I suggest the
following clarifications:

1) remove the word "always" from the section 4 statement
2) Add an example showing that the following media query is true:

     @media not 3d-glasses { ... }
</pre>

<td>
'not foo' is true and 'foo' is false. (3d-glasses is a parse error.)

Does "color-index" have a zero value unless a lookup table is used?

If the device does not use a color lookup table, the value is zero.

<tr class=r><td>11<td>

<p>I think that the Media Queries draft
http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/CR-css3-mediaqueries-20070606/ should either
define media types itself or should reference CSS 2.1 for them.
Referencing HTML4 and CSS2 for these seems outdated. For instance, "aural"
is deprecated in CSS 2.1, but "speech" is not. "speech" is not mentioned
in Media Queries and "aural" is used in examples and mentioned several
times.

<tr class=a><td>15<td>I was wondering why a negative &lt;length> for 'width' (and other media features)
is not disallowed ... I hope a further revision of the specification could say that "&lt;length> must be
a positive integer when applied to a media feature specified in this
specification." (Perhaps adding "or zero" to that for clarity if needed.)

<td>
With my editor's hat on I went through all the features and clarified what type of "numbers" they could hold and whether those could be negative, zero, or just positive.

What does '(scan)' mean?

<td>The draft is clarified to mention that each media feature (including min/max prefixed)
"(media-feature)" is equivalent to "(media-feature:x)" for when x is not equal to 0. (If media-feature does not accept 0 x can be any value.)

<pre>http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-mediaqueries/#media1 says:
  # For a media feature feature, (feature) will evaluate to true if
  # (feature:x) will evaluate to true for a value x other than zero.

Does this mean:

  (a) (width) is always true, even if the viewport width is zero,
  because "0px" is a value other than zero, or:

  (b) (width) is false when the viewport width is zero because "0px"
  and "0" are both not "other than zero"?

I'd also note that because specified widths cannot be negative,
(max-width) currently behaves the same as (width), whereas
(min-width) is always true.  Is that really intended?</pre>

<pre>After reading http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-mediaqueries/#grid it's
not clear to me whether the queries "(grid: -1)" or "(grid: 2)"
