    Ben: Any other items apart from those in the agenda?

    Ben: Should this be removed?

    Steven: Don't mind. Do you want it prioritised?

    Ben: Could leave it there, but shortly we'll need an XHTML 1.1+RDFa
    document, which will become higher priority.

    ...
    ... rather than just "this paper was published on".

    during his absence.

    Elias: Has it been moved to the wiki?

XHTML 1.1 Module Status

    [33]http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Group/2007/WD-xhtml-modularization-2007
    0209/

      [33]  
http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Group/2007/WD-xhtml-modularization-20070209/

    <benadida> MarkB: first needed an update to the modularization spec,
    pointed to here (but not public)

    [34]http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Group/2007/WD-xhtml11-20070208/

      [34] http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Group/2007/WD-xhtml11-20070208/

    <benadida> ... then we needed XHTML 1.1 using modularization, which
    just came out.

    <benadida> .

    <benadida> ... now we need to create the RDFa module based on these
    updated specs

    <benadida> ... still missing from Shane the draft specs of the
    module itself

    <benadida> ... schemas to be posted on Wednesday

    <benadida> ... email to SWD mailing list talks about DTDs

    <benadida> ... we may get help from Shane on that front

    <benadida> Ralph: expected schedule for these drafts?

    <benadida> Steven: within a week to request pub as WD

    <mhausenblas_> from WD to REC directly ?

    <benadida> ... nothing has changed except typos and addition of
    schemas. Go to PER, no normative changes.

    <benadida> MarkB: RDFa module that Shane is doing at the moment
    should only need to reference the modularization spec, the one that
    will move very quickly.

    <benadida> ... the second spec is only useful as a template for
    linking, not as a reference.

    <benadida> ... the most important thing is not XHTML1.1 + RDFa, it's
    just the RDFa bit.

    <benadida> ... delay because this is first example of a module that
    uses the modularization spec

    <benadida> ... and external module

    Mark: Did anyone have any comments on the point about DTDs?

    Steven: It is a wonder that DTDs can even get close to what we want.
    ... (Based mainly on wizardry from Murray Altheim and his amazing
    DTD skills.)

    Ben: Is this some problem with IE?

    Steven: No, it's to do with validation by those that only use DTDs.

    <mhausenblas_> might be a dumb question, but isn XHTML (note: X)
    defined in terms of XML-Schema?

    Ben: So is there a hurry?

    Steven: No..it's only if someone says that they *must* validate
    using DTDs.
    ... Should flag up that the DOCTYPE switch is often used in
    documents to set standards compliant mode.

    <RalphS> Mark: was the request in mail an expression of a
    requirement for DTD validation?

    <RalphS> Ben: not sure if it was meant as a requirement

    Mark: But need to establish whether the request on the list is a
    *must* for DTDs, or were they simply asking for validation.

    <RalphS> Ben: ... or merely a request, so that W3C validators can
    work

    Michael: Should answer Simone.

    Ben: We will.

Test Case Update

    Wing: Explained what they had done with the test-suite.

    <RalphS> kudos to Wing for test case work!

    Michael: Would like some feedback on my posts in the list. True that
    we want to keep it simple, but we do want to get it correct.

    Steven: Regarding section 2.2.2, about what needs to conform; is
    that not the same question about what it is that we're testing?
    ... My feeling is that we're testing the spec.

    <mhausenblas_> [40]http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/RDFa/testsuite/

      [40] http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/RDFa/testsuite/

    Michael: This looks at whether a REST-based extra service is
    conformant to the specification.

    Steven: Should say that this tests the specification, and not some
    implementation.

    Ben: Not sure exactly what this means.

    Steven: If there is some constraint in the spec then it must be
    reflected in the test-suite.
    ... Need two implementations, to prove that it was implementable.

    <RalphS> [I agree with Steven's characterization of testing]

    <Steven> Scribe: Steven

    Ben: Isn't this a human thing?

    Steven: No, it relates to W3C process where you have to show the
    spec is implementable, and consistent

    <mhausenblas_> see link above

Next call

    Ben: Next Monday is a public holiday in the USA (Steven Pemberton's
    Birthday official celebration)

    Ben: so I propose we postpone next week's call
