All:

 

The following issues are marked as "needs-attention" ("NA"), mainly by me
while reviewing "close?" items. We should discuss these as time permits in
teleconference until they are all gone.

#1763 opened Sep 27, 2023 

 

Why NA? We should assign someone to review this to ensure it is correct.

#1361 opened Mar 15, 2021 

 

Why NA? I don't believe we would be satisfied by the outcome of the above,
but I didn't see the requests for feedback until just now. Tagging for
further review, although this may now be stale.

#1006 opened Jan 11, 2021 

 

Why NA? This is about English usages in specifications, which affects
translators among others. Perhaps @xfq should review to ensure the right
outcome has been reached.

Why NA? I am not yet satisfied (I added a detailed comment to their issue
and asked for re-open consideration). My comment has not yet been considered
by the I18N WG as a whole.

Why NA? Unclear if this was reviewed. Probably too stale to take meaningful
action.

Why NA? @r12a mentioned that: "Rule for centring chinese by default was
removed and CSS closed the issue. Are we happy to also close?"

(and it's friend w3c/csswg-drafts#779
<https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/779> ) for satisfaction?" Should
we action on this or close it?

Why NA? Not clear. I think this was moved to

Why NA? We did a lot of work on setting requirements in specdev and so
forth. The issue is still open. We probably should review the state.

Why NA? I drew an action in 2020 to ping webvtt about this. Their issue is
closed and I asked if we should raise visibility. Let's discuss.

Internationalization is not a feature.

It is an architecture.
