Overview of Future Work
CharMod (character model)
LTLI (language tags and locale identifiers)
WS-I18N (web services i18n)
Bidi Best Practices for HTML Authors
Character Declaration Best Practices for HTML Authors
(existing work) Unicode Migration
Update to: "Working with Time Zones"
richard: we do various things---reviews, consulting with WGs; both are reactive
... we also try to do some outreach and education
... I just asked for more 'quick tips' cards to be printed, for example
... mention conferences, etc.
... but the documents are more "project work"
... and documenting what we are saying to people (so we don't lose the information)
... (and have handy references)
addison: good not to have to recreate and have it well thought out
richard: another project is JLTF
... sending out drafts for review from time-to-time
felix: thanks for mentioning
<fsasaki> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/member-japanese-layout-en/2008Feb/
felix: points to new English drafts
addison: if we're going to develop materials, need to break out of this meeting to do it
... spec review is important, but real meat can be this other work
... might also consider more geo materials such as IUC presentations
richard: felix and I will be doing an ITS presentation at WWW
... as well as @media and open road
mick: need a list of links to specific documents
richard: good to list these projects somewhere, maybe pipeline?
<scribe> ACTION: Addison: produce list of documents and add to pipeline [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/03/05-core-minutes.html#action03]
felix: might need to do TF style work, such as WS-i18n or JLTF
<fsasaki> +1 to work on LTLI
richard: key thing is to find editors
... plus agreement of group to work on doc
... put me down for bidi best practices
addison: I think both resid and normalization need to be resolved and finished off
richard: but we need to clearly prioritize, since one of us can't edit like three of these at once
addison: call for priorities
richard: wants to push bidi
... otherwise equally important
david: would like a look first
... general feeling of charmod
richard: agree with addison that normalization would be nice to have
... although resid would probably be easier (but not as important)
addison: call for editors/volunteers (no need to rush forward or shove)
