Any comments from the I18N Core WG?

I am surprised to see "the original question was, should XML use IRI? Now that it has a definition that's been agreed upon, yes, they should". As XML and most formats based on XML allow use of non-Unicode encodings, allowing IRIs in such formats would make the formats inconsistent with the architectural requirements set forth in the reference processing model http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/REC-charmod-20050215/#sec-RefProcModel and http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/REC-charmod-20050215/#C014 in particular. I don't think the reference character processing model should be changed and it seems inappropriate for the TAG to encourage creating formats that violate absolute requirements of W3C's own Character Model for the World Wide Web. So I don't think the TAG's resolution should be as cited above. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
