Re: [webkit-dev] DOMCrypt

2011-07-27 Thread Christoph Martens
Hey Adam, I thought it might make sense to let the user specify a private key file (e.g. an RSA-key) that is in the browsers KeyChain. Would that make sense to have it implemented in the DOMCryptAPI? Otherwise I can't see many use cases, because I think encryption on a high OSI layer just

My sense is that the Mozilla folks want to start with the simple building blocks first and then work up to more complicated things like interacting with OS key stores and smart card readers. DOMCrypt is also useful for protecting data at rest, which isn't something you can do with TLS. For

Well, I think that makes sense... But not for me. I have the opinion that cloud-hosted keys aren't keys anymore - right? I mean, man-in-the-middle attacks are the 100% use case when it comes to encryption due to buggy DNS-protocol that can't be updated. I also think that this is kinda

2011-07-27 Thread Adam Barth
These sorts of questions are probably better discussed on the whatwg mailing list (where there is currently a thread about DOMCrypt) because they're general questions about the use cases and features set of the API and not about WebKit's implementation (or non-implementation) of the API. Thanks

[webkit-dev] Heads up : Qt port and its multimedia support.

2011-07-27 Thread Alexis Menard
Hello, Just a small heads up on the multimedia support for the Qt port. At the last webkit summit I've heard some Google folks a bit confused about our multimedia story and I'm sure others are so here is the story : We had a first Phonon backend, abandoned and really far from feature completion

[webkit-dev] Timing updates for SVG SMIL animations

2011-07-27 Thread Scott Graham
Hi, When the Timer is fired for SMILTimeContainer to update animations, the elapsed time is calculated based on the client's currentTime(). That elapsed time is passed into updateAnimations and is used most of the way down. In some cases during the update though, SMILTimeContainer::elapsed() is

Perhaps related to this thread, shouldn't we be basing SVG animations off of the same animation scheduler that drives requestAnimationFrame and soon CSS animations (https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64591)? It seems less than ideal to use a Timer. -Darin On Wed, Jul 27, 2011 at 11:14 AM,
