http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13673 Summary: Improve the utility of the static external entity for character entities Product: HTML WG Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows NT Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: HTML5 spec (editor: Ian Hickson) AssignedTo: ian@hixie.ch ReportedBy: ht@inf.ed.ac.uk QAContact: public-html-bugzilla@w3.org CC: mike@w3.org, public-html-wg-issue-tracking@w3.org, public-html@w3.org Further to http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2011Jul/0055.html, please consider the following Last Call comments: 1) Please provide a human-readable version of the data: URI which is mandated for 'retrieval' in the parsing-xhtml-documents section, at least in the authoring view, so that authors know what symbolic entity references they may use; 2) Please identify the origin of this set of entity definitions, and the basis on which the list will change, or not, when that origin changes. 3) Please expand the list of Public Identifiers which 'correspond' to that external entity, along the lines suggested in the email identified above, to avoid breaking the web. 4) Please consider opening this up further, for example by at least _allowing_ this external entity to be used for _any_ public identifier in a document being processed as XHTML. Making the list of public identifiers fixed as it is now inhibits the future of XML languages on the Web in an unnecessary way. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
