@kennethrohde @marcosc @rob_dodson @ken_wheeler @samccone @sebmck @cwilso A newbie can’t be bothered to comb thru tons of IRC logs, so impossibly can’t be aware of all previous thoughts and all prior art. Patience.
@kennethrohde @marcosc @rob_dodson @ken_wheeler @samccone @sebmck @cwilso I was a small part of Media Frags (https://t.co/WTavtd6UVn)… & weeks of calls. Hard to conserve for the WG—and challenging for newbies.
@kennethrohde @marcosc @rob_dodson @ken_wheeler @samccone @sebmck @cwilso Essentially GitHub Issue and Pull Request templates: https://t.co/C1KshOlVgw. Acknowledge reception timely, politely enforce template usage.
@kennethrohde @marcosc @rob_dodson @ken_wheeler @samccone @sebmck @cwilso IMHO all newcomer proposals need to have a “I looked at A, B, C, and still think it’s a good idea†section. Experienced folks can demand it.
@marcosc @kennethrohde @rob_dodson @ken_wheeler @samccone @sebmck @cwilso @respimg Funny, I was thinking of @respimg right now. Crucial to be aware of discussions around <source>-s of <video> as a proposer of <picture>.
@marcosc @rob_dodson @ken_wheeler @samccone @sebmck @cwilso What’s important for newbies is to study prior art—and for experienced folks to be patient if they didn’t & help’em get it right next time!
