All: send in pointers to existing guidelines Dependencies =========== None. Info Share ======== Russ and Lloyd thought this would be a useful add to the mtg. The idea is that people can contribute news or informative titbits about events, developments, etc that affect our work. It is information share only - if processing is needed we should add an agenda item - although of course clarification questions are allowed. This week's info: - Martin & Richard to speak at W3C track of WWW2003 in Budapest in May, outlining progress on activities of the i18n Activity - Article by Martin on I18N Activity appeared recently in MLC - Richard may be speaking at LISA in London? Needs to discuss with Mike Anobile. Review of recent activity =================== Framework Document [http://www.w3.org/TR/i18n-guide-framework/] was published to the TR page [http://www.w3.org/TR/]. Some helpful editorial comments received from Andrea Vine. Q&A Review ========================= We reviewed the suggested Q&A items in http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-geo/2003Apr/0020.html Do we need to ask permission to point to other people's pages? DECIDED we should probably seek endorsement before use. We should also be careful to avoid potential bias when pointing to commercial pages. Note that Dr International usually asks first, and finds it useful because they are often warned of pending changes. We agreed that there might be multiple answers for some questions. We should probably briefly describe where the reader is going before they click on a link to an answer. For example, we may say something like: "for a general view see xxx, for apache servers see more detailed information yyy" We should distinguish between links to stuff generated by the W3C and other stuff, but not on the grounds of 'authoritativeness' - let the user decide what is authoritative. For example, even if we write stuff ourselves about apache servers, the only really authority here is the Apache people. Icons would probably be a good way to make the distinction. It was suggested that we could open a new window for non W3C written stuff. We reviewed each of the proposed questions in the mailnote and agreed that they were all good candidates. ACTION: Lloyd, prepare a Q&A pair for review on 19 May. Next meeting: ========== Same time, same bridge, next week. ============ Richard Ishida W3C tel: +44 1753 480 292 http://www.w3.org/International/ http://www.w3.org/People/Ishida/
