    richard: the above are proposed in the webapps charter
    ... could we have a look at the above?

    <scribe> ACTION: addison: add IME documents to review radar, write
    to webapps requesting formal notifications at appropriate review
    points [recorded in
    [18]http://www.w3.org/2012/02/08-i18n-minutes.html#action01]

    <trackbot> Created ACTION-96 - Add IME documents to review radar,
    write to webapps requesting formal notifications at appropriate
    review points [on Addison Phillips - due 2012-02-15].

    norbert: might want to note that this won't be easy
    ... many kinds of input systems (e.g. handwriting)

Ruby Discussion

    <r12a> [19]http://www.w3.org/International/wiki/Rb

      [19] http://www.w3.org/International/wiki/Rb

    richard: a few changes to the wiki
    ... added sections called "does it support use case"
    ... and added summary
    ... see bottom
    ... need to resolve this by 11th of February or write a change
    proposal
    ... don't think we can do that
    ... still hearing new ideas
    ... problem we have is that the arbitrary date caused by murata's
    escalation
    ... discussed in interaction domain meeting
    ... mike smith has spoken with leif
    ... asking him to withdraw it
    ... if not withdrawn, then html5 proposal has to be considered
    ... leif will do so if richard posts on list saying we're
    investigating
    ... mike suggests turning wiki into note
    ... and then author WD separate from HTML5, get impl support, and
    then ask for it to be integrated

    <kojiishi> Mike told me that i18n WG's charter allows us to write
    notes, but not WD?

    addison: we can write notes, but not REC; can write REC as part of
    HTML

    <kojiishi>
    [20]https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13113#c0

      [20] https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13113#c0

    <kojiishi> Mozilla is blocked by this bug, but is interested in
    implmenting

    richard needs to write to public-html making a statement asking for
    Leif's withdrawl pending future activity by I18N WG and interested
    implementers to complete the ruby specification that we need

    scribe: and add something like that to the bug

    <scribe> ACTION: richard: write to public-html asking for end of
    escalation pending future work by i18n [recorded in
    [21]http://www.w3.org/2012/02/08-i18n-minutes.html#action02]

    <trackbot> Created ACTION-97 - Write to public-html asking for end
    of escalation pending future work by i18n [on Richard Ishida - due
    2012-02-15].

    <scribe> ACTION: richard: update ruby bug with summary of current
    situation and asking for no re-escalation [recorded in
    [22]http://www.w3.org/2012/02/08-i18n-minutes.html#action03]

    <trackbot> Created ACTION-98 - Update ruby bug with summary of
    current situation and asking for no re-escalation [on Richard Ishida
    - due 2012-02-15].

    richard: then need to create plan for creating documents

    addison: can turn wiki into note

    richard: but need an editor to work on draft

    koji: volunteers to be co-editor

    <kojiishi> is it possible for Richard to be one of editors?

    <kojiishi> We can ask fantasai but she has a lot of things on her
    table

    <kojiishi> It's probably good to ask her help, but if we can do most
    of edits work, I think that works the best

    <scribe> chair: do we agree that the way forward is to create a note
    with requirements and then create a WD/spec separate from HTML for
    implementation?

    <kojiishi> no objections

    <David> no objection

    <matial> OK

    <r12a> no objection

    john: no objection

    <joconner1> no objections

    <andrewc> ok

    <fsasaki> no objections

    <Norbert> agree

    addison: agree

    <r12a> agree too

    <scribe> chair: so resolved :-)

    <David> I agree

    richard: have a look at the wiki and send comments in
    ... haven't finished tidying of new stuff
    ... but the main ideas are there

AOB?

    <joconner1> in response to richard, i commit to reading the wiki
    pages and getting up to speed on background info regarding ruby

    <kojiishi> Thank you so much to Richard and Addison for all the
    staff!
