> 

Henry just noticed a fourth implementation of escaping into XML names.

But Henry still thinks we should probably just drop this since
it's unlikely anyone would listen to us--everyone likes their own.

No one disagreed with dropping this.

> XML Security specs
> ------------------
> The XML Security WG has asked the XML Core WG to review its
> upcoming specs as referenced below, especially:
> 
> Canonical XML Version 2.0,
> http://www.w3.org/2008/xmlsec/Drafts/c14n-20/
> 
> XML Signature Syntax and Processing Version 2.0,
> http://www.w3.org/2008/xmlsec/Drafts/xmldsig-core-20/
> 
> ACTION to Jirka, Norm:  Review the XML Security specs.
> 

ACTION to Jirka, Norm continued.

> 
> 3.  XML 1.0--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xml-errata
> 
> We are creating an XML 1.0 6th Edition and XML 1.1 3rd (or
> perhaps 6th) Edition.
> 
> ACTION to John:  Update the XML sources for XML 1.0 and 1.1
> to reflect any errata and the LEIRI reference.
> 
> 
> 4.  XML Test Suite.
> 
> See also http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xml-test-suite
> 
> ACTION to Henry:  Construct a test case for the XML test suite
> issues raised by Frans Englich:
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-testsuite/2007Mar/

> 
> 5.  Namespaces in XML 1.0/1.1--see
>    http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#ns1.0
>    and http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#ns1.1.

> 
> 6.  LEIRIs--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#leiri
> 
> We had planned to issue the following spec editions referencing
LEIRIs:
> 
> * XML 1.0 6th Edition
> * XML 1.1 3rd Edition
> * XInclude 3rd Edition
> 
> John wonders if we should call the next edition of XML 1.1
> the 6th Edition to match the XML 1.0 spec.  (No decision yet.)
> 
> We decided not to touch XLink 1.0.  XLink 1.1 is already leirified.
> 
> John will update the XML sources for XML 1.0 and 1.1.
> 
> Paul will update the Xinclude source.
> 
> Paul, Norm, and Liam are responsible for dealing with pubrules
> and other administrivia.
> 
> Our LEIRI WG Note says:
> 
>  When [IRIbis is published as an RFC], this specification will be
>  re-issued to reference it in place of the extracts given below.
> 
> We are concerned that the XML specs would be normatively referencing
> an RFC through a (non-normative) WG Note, so we're not sure what we
> want to do here.
> 
> Furthermore, IRIBis is not moving to RFC quickly.  So we're not
> sure what we should do about issuing new editions.
> 
> Recent email from Larry Masinter (one of the authors of IRIbis) at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2011Mar/0022
> doesn't give a time line for IRIBis at this point.
> 
> ACTION to Henry:  Ping Larry Masinter (one of the authors of
> IRIbis) for the latest on the IRIbis schedule.
> 

ACTION to Henry continued.

> 
> 9.  XLink 1.1--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xlink1.1

> 
> 10.  XInclude 3rd Ed--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xinclude
> 
> We are creating an XInclude 3rd Edition.

Jirka hasn't heard back yet about our resolutions of
comments or whether ISO will need to do another ballot.

We will wait until our next telcon (June 1) to see what
is the latest status with ISO and perhaps decide to publish
a new editor of our WG Note then.
