> xml-stylesheet and HTML5
> ------------------------
> Henry started a thread at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2011Jul/0008
> 
> In the HTML5 spec, when dealing with the XML prolog, there is
> nothing about processing instructions, so it isn't clear that
> browsers would pick up the xml-stylesheet PI.
> 
> John Cowan said there was another part of the spec that applies
> to that process, but Henry hasn't yet followed up on that.
> 
> ACTION to Henry:  Research to ensure that the xml-stylesheet PI
> is appropriately referenced from HTML5 and/or 3023bis (the XML
> media type definition).

ACTION to Henry continued.

> 
> Note that 3023bis could say that browsers should reference
> Assoc SS and process the SSPI when processing an XML resource.

> 
> Extending XInclude
> ------------------
> Norm sent email on behalf of DocBook at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2011Jul/0013
> asking whether we want to consider extending XInclude.
> 
> The key issue is that xincluding content can often cause
> duplicate ids, and the question is whether we can define
> some kind of fix up.
> 
> Henry is skeptical about id fixup, and he considers IDs
> as obsolete technology.
> 
> Norm doesn't see how scoped identifiers solves his problem.
> See http://docbook.org/docs/transclusion-requirements/#uc-5
> for a use case.
> 
> If we provide some kind of id fixup on xinclude, we could
> provide some solutions to some use cases.
> 
> See http://www.docbook.org/docs/transclusion/#d6e180 for
> some DocBook proposals for id fixup.
> 
> We'll plan to think about this some and revisit.
> 

A processor might be able to find ids and/or idrefs if xml:id
is used and/or there is a DTD/schema available, and even if 
that is the case, fixup would only work within the included
module, but is that partial case worth augmenting XInclude.

Liam suggests the only real solution is to do a transformation,
so he doesn't feel there is an XInclude solution.

Norm will try to implement Jirka's proposals using xproc.

ACTION to Norm:  Try to implement Jirka's proposals using xproc.
