I was also in India, and there was a strong desire to have the next workshop in India Francois: Is there s.t. special about Indic languages? Richard: I don't know ... we might see from the submissons to the upcoming workshop ... last week I was at the opening of the W3C office in India ... there was a plenary day, I presented Internationalization ... there was a strong interest in internationalization ... only 5% of the population speak English ... they also interested in the mobile web ... on the second day we had tutorials ... Internationalization came up as a big topic ... there are some computational linguistic type folks ... we have to go through some discussions in the near future ... we need to ask people to write W3C submissions ... this morning I went to the MWI event ... I told them again to take i18n into account ... I tried to encourage s.o. from the BBC to participate in i18n wg ... MWI best practices document looks at XHTML, but not e.g. on SVG ... they don't think e.g. about user interface design that much ... these things may become relevant for their specs <r12a> [10]http://www.flickr.com/photos/ishida/ [10] http://www.flickr.com/photos/ishida/ <r12a> [11]http://www.flickr.com/photos/ishida/59282671/ [11] http://www.flickr.com/photos/ishida/59282671/ <scribe> ACTION: felix to review the MWI specs [recorded in [12]http://www.w3.org/2005/11/15-i18n-minutes.html#action05] Summary of Action Items [NEW] ACTION: felix to look for Kieran Snyder [recorded in [13]http://www.w3.org/2005/11/15-i18n-minutes.html#action02] [NEW] ACTION: felix to present the comments on chardmod norm to the wg [recorded in [14]http://www.w3.org/2005/11/15-i18n-minutes.html#action04] [NEW] ACTION: felix to review the MWI specs [recorded in [15]http://www.w3.org/2005/11/15-i18n-minutes.html#action05] [NEW] ACTION: felix to send a note to Moataz [recorded in [16]http://www.w3.org/2005/11/15-i18n-minutes.html#action01] [NEW] ACTION: felix to ping mark about ltli document [recorded in [17]http://www.w3.org/2005/11/15-i18n-minutes.html#action03] [End of minutes] _________________________________________________________ Minutes formatted by David Booth's [18]scribe.perl version 1.127 ([19]CVS log) $Date: 2005/11/16 12:26:59 $ [18] http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/~checkout~/2002/scribe/scribedoc.htm [19] http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/2002/scribe/
