| 4.  xml:base, [baseURI], and IRIs -> HRRIs
|
| The (Second Edition) PER has been published at
| http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/PER-xmlbase-20061220/ 
|
| It's now waiting for us to say what should happen next--whether 
| we want a Director's call now or not.
|
| We need to remember to correct the IP part of the Status section per
| http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-linking-comments/2007JanMar/
| 0000
|
| Mike Kay thinks the defn of XML Resource Identifier is too vague. 
|
| We decided to write an RFC to define XML Resource Identifier.
| The plan is to get this to an RFC and then reference it from
| XML Base (which we can then take to REC) and others. 
|
| 4.5.  HRRI RFC
|
| The latest HRRI draft was published as an ID on May 14 at

|
| Martin Duerst raise security issues with the HRRI draft.  
|
| ACTION to Norm:  Get Martin to send his comments to an accessible 
| list (or get his permission to forward them to such).

Completed.

| ACTION to Norm:  Copy/reference/incorporate the security 
| text from the IRI RFC and add text mentioning the security risk
| inherent in allowing the use of control characters in HRRIs.

Completed.

| ACTION to Norm:  Get Martin's acceptance of our changes.

Martin's mail:

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-iri/2007Jun/0004.html

Richard notes that we could go back to converting them to URIs.

But we are referring to things in the IRI spec.

Norm: So if we just added the private use area to our list, then that
would cover it, yes?

Richard: Yes, I think so.

Norm: I'll add

  * characters in the Unicode private use area, except where they appear
    in the query part.

and see if that addresses Martin's concern. 

| ACTION to Norm:  Publish another ID once we have
| agreement from Martin on the security wording.

Continued. I'll also try to get Martin to provide a more exhaustive
list.

| 5.  XLink update.

|

|
| ACTION to Norm:  Produce PR-ready draft.
|
| ACTION to Norm:  Produce diff/review version.

|
|  Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.1 (Second Edition)

| On PE 157, John sent email at
| http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006Oct/0036
| with his suggested response and a question for the WG:
|
|> Should we add specific references to UTF-16BE, UTF-16LE, CESU-8,
|> etc. etc. to 4.3.3?  If so, we might as well remove "We consider the
|> first case first" from Appendix F; it's more than obvious.
|
| We agreed that, according to the spec, such a character is not a BOM.
|
| We have decided that John's email should be sent to the commentor
| as a response (done, see [11]), and that the only change resulting from 
| this PE are some editorial changes as outlined in John's email at
| http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006Dec/0056
|
| ACTION to Francois:  Update the PE document with John's editorial
| changes as the proposed resolution to PE 157.

Continued.

Henry/Richard discussed the test suite issues raised by Frans Englich:

  http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-testsuite/2007Mar/

These need to be resolved.

Richard reports that the 2005 issue has been resolved in the latest
draft.

The one from 2006, character references with numbers with dozens of
digits, may not be.

ACTION: Richard to construct a test case for these issues.

| ----
|
| John sent email about a new PE related to UTF-8 BOM at
| http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006Dec/0067
| proposing the following language as a new paragraph in 4.3.3
| for both XML 1.0 and XML 1.1:
|
| 	If the replacement text of an external entity is to
| 	begin with the character U+FEFF, and no text declaration
| 	is present, then a Byte Order Mark MUST be present,
| 	whether the entity is encoded in UTF-8 or UTF-16.
|
| ACTION to Francois:  Add a new PE per John's comments above
| and make some suggested resolution wording.

Continued.
