RE: ITS IG Teleconference on Tuesday Jan-25-2011 - Summary

ITS IG Teleconference on Tuesday Jan-25-2010 At 16:00 UTC/GMT
9am Denver, 11am Boston, 4pm London, 5pm Berlin

Regrets: Felix, Jirka
Attending: Yves, Christian, Richard


=== ITS-oriented reviews of XML specifications

Last Calls: http://www.w3.org/TR/#last-call

--- EPUB:
See http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-its-ig/2010Sep/0006.html
And following emails.

Nothing new.


--- MIME type:
http://www.alvestrand.no/pipermail/ietf-types/2010-April/002337.html
Status unchanged.

Status: still same status, waiting from answer after Felix changes.



=== ITS Rules repository

http://www.w3.org/International/its/wiki/RulesRepository
No new rules added.

Nothing to report.


=== ITS Processor with XSLT

XML to XLIFF using ITS and XSLT:
V0.6: http://fabday.fh-potsdam.de/~sasaki/its/
V0.7: http://fabday.fh-potsdam.de/~sasaki/its/temp.html

No change for now. Felix is still at the same position so change of host probably not urgent.



=== ITS General issues

--- Context data category
Should go there:
http://www.w3.org/International/its/wiki/IssuesAndProposedFeatures#Proposed_Text

Started: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-its-ig/2010Sep/0003.html

ACTION ITEM: Christian to update the wiki from his email.


--- Idea for a "targets" data category.
For example: <p its:targets=".*?-US">This is specific to the United States.</p>
Felix noted possible ideas here: http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/WD-ltli-20060612/

YS: Do we have real use cases for it?
CL: There are some XML format that may need that.
YS: But cases like Frame use conditional text for example.
CL: The point is there is no standard for this.
YS: Good point
RI: can I get examples.
CL: Explains cases for generating PDFs...
RI: Could be good topic for MultilingualWeb.

ACTION ITEM: Christian to wiki entry for this proposal.


=== Any Other Business?

--- MultilingualWeb workshop in Pisa in a few months.
RI: maybe Christian could give the same talk as Yves at LocWord.
Also maybe a review about ITS data categories?
CL: need some time to think/know if it's possible.
RI: the sooner the better.


--- ITS-based filters used to convert data to Moses Inline Text format for MT processing.
(M4Loc project http://groups.google.com/group/m4loc)

ACTION ITEM: Yves to write blurb about it and send it to Richard.

CL: maybe M4Loc could try to get the format to support ITS directly?
YS: the Moses format is rather basic and not quite XML-savvy. But maybe yes in the long term.


--- "Standards Summit" in March by LISA
BTW: Arle will be leaving LISA. And LISA is searching for a director of Standards.
Too bad this summit is a separate effort from MultilingualWeb.


=== Next teleconference is Feb-22

Cheers,
-ys
