Yesterday I uploaded an update to 1.1 that addressed several outstanding action items of mine, and one additional issue that arose two days ago. For all diffs, please see: http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-diff.html The new inputmode content has been incorporated. http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-diff.html#mode-scripts The Common attribute now contains the note about including Events, and that Actions mention them for reading convenience because it actually makes the most sense to use them on the actual event handler elements. http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-diff.html#structure-attrs-common The explicit mention of Events attributes on model has been removed, along with the confusing paragraph about why they might be available on the model element. http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-diff.html#structure-abstract http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-diff.html#structure-model It has been noted in xforms-insert and xforms-delete that although they are notification events in the sense that they have no default processing from the vantage point of the insertion and deletion processing models, the repeat processor does attach behavior to the capture phase of the event. This was the actual issue raised by Erik. We talked about solving the issue by removing all language about "notification" events from the spec. However, this is more of a surgery (spec reorganization) than perhaps we anticipated, not a simple iteration of a removal process. I think this reorganization work will naturally occur during the modularization refactoring in 1.2, so I'd recommend that we go with the more direct and less invasive fix for now. http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-diff.html#evt-insert http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-diff.html#evt-delete The description of the effect of the relevant property on the UI has been edited to avoid a possible misinterpretation that was recently brought to my attention. Two clarifications occurred. The application of relevance to an element was explicitly associated with *single-node* *UI bindings*. There was a sentence which attempted to clarify that direct non-availability of an element due to non-relevance was not an effect applied to action elements, but this was getting confused with the language in Chapter 8 that says actions attached to non-relevant form controls are disabled. http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-diff.html#model-prop-relevant Thanks, John M.
