4 Actions done, 1.1 spec updated, test suite impact

Dear Forms WG,

The following actions are done:

1) Action 2008-12-17.1
2) Action 2008-12-10.3
3) Action 2008-12-10.1
4) http://www.w3.org/2008/11/26-forms-minutes.html#action02


The 1.1 spec [1] has been updated.

[1] http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-diff.html

Here are the changes:

1) It was noticed that the Conformance section (ch. 12) had a few cruft 
mentions of former actions, which were removed.

2) Insert action indicates that its attributes are evaluated in inscope 
eval context, which is amended by context attr.  The list said "including" 
and listed all attributes except 'at'.  Added "at".

3) Example of version exception event in [2] needed to use value attribute 
on output, not ref.  This may affect a test suite case.

4) Example of reporting submission error in [3] needed to use value 
attribute on output, not ref.  This may affect a test suite case.

5) Fixed typo udate => update

6) Amended step 7 of xforms-submit event processing [4] to clarify the 
error-type that occurs when the resource is not specified.  Also added 
note to indicate that data validation can be performed with a 
resource-less submission.  This would seem to need an additional test 
suite test.

7) Fixed URI construction method for method="get" in [5] to not add 
question mark when serialization="none".  This would seem to need a test 
case.
