XML Core WG Status and Open Actions as of 2011 May 17

The XML Core WG telcons are every other week.

However, we have CANCELLED the telcon of May 18.

Our next telcon will be 2011 June 1.  


Status and open actions
=======================

TPAC week
---------
TPAC will be 31 October through 4 November 2011 in Santa Clara
California.  We are planning to have a f2f during this week:
http://www.w3.org/2011/11/TPAC/ - Meeting Overview page.

Likely attendance:

Probably will:  Paul, Norm, Henry, Liam
Maybe:  Mohamed
Most likely won't:  John, Daniel, Jirka, Glenn

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.


LEIRIs and new editions
-----------------------
Paul sent email at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2011Mar/0007
asking for clarification of just we are planning to do in
terms of issuing new editions wrt LEIRIs. 

Paul's latest assumption is that we would have the new editions
point to our WG Note which already 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.

ACTION to Henry:  Ping Larry Masinter (one of the authors of
IRIbis) for the latest on the IRIbis schedule.

XML 1.0 6th Edition and XML 1.1 3rd Edition
-------------------------------------------
ACTION to John:  Update the XML sources for XML 1.0 and 1.1
to reflect any errata and the LEIRI reference.


XInclude 3rd Edition
--------------------
ACTION to Paul:  Update the XML sources for Xinclude to reflect 
any errata and the LEIRI reference.


xml-model
---------
The ballot has been approved.  There were four comments which
need to be addressed which means there will probably be another
ISO vote.

Some of the comments led us to tweak our Note.

Paul prepared an updated draft of the WG Note at
http://www.w3.org/XML/2011/04/xml-model/xml-model-diff.htm

ACTION to John:  Review the latest xml-model spec at
http://www.w3.org/XML/2011/04/xml-model/xml-model-diff.htm

Jirka will present our disposition of comments to ISO and 
find out whether they need to do another ballot or not.

ACTION to Jirka:  Find out what the next steps will be
for ISO's progression of the XML Model spec.

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 edition of our WG Note then.
