Henry gives regrets.

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

XML Activity AC Review
----------------------
The XML Activity AC review is open through April 26.
Please urge your AC rep to complete the review at
https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/33280/XMLact2013/


xmlspec.xsl and diffspec.xsl
----------------------------
Paul sent email about this at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2012Nov/0014

ACTION to Norm: Come up with (and implement) a plan to
reorganize xmlspec.xsl and diffspec.xsl to "do the right thing."


DOM4
----
Henry reported that DOM4 has removed (or deprecated) access to the
XML Declaration. Our Infoset spec says that standalone, version,
and the encoding are part of the information content of an XML
document.

Henry and Paul think the XML Core WG should send an email
to the Web Applications Working Group (public-webapps@w3.org)
to reinstate the parts of the xml decl that are in the Infoset.

Henry drafted a potential comment at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2013Feb/0023

John filed some thoughts to the contrary at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2013Feb/0026

Henry figures we should discuss this some more.
Norm is having a hard time caring about all this.

Henry reached out to the webapps working group at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2013Apr/0009
to try to collect some more data on this issue.
