<YvesS> [12]http://esw.w3.org/topic/its0505Translatability
[12] http://esw.w3.org/topic/its0505Translatability
Tim: Describes a change about loc properties / loc directives in the
req
Yves: that is O.K. for me. Anybody against dropping that paragraph?
CL: fine with me.
<scribe> ACTION: Yves to drop para from translation req [recorded in
[13]http://www.w3.org/2005/08/17-i18n-minutes.html#action04]
List of current work items
Yves: would like to move work items fast to wd
... sometimes slightly different wording (grammar etc.) in the wiki
versus the wd
... so could the wiki owners update the wikis?
Tim: Makes sense. Who are the document owners?
Yves: We should do that for the ones which are close to WD.
... it concerns me and Masaki. I will do the changes, because Masaaki
is currently offline
<scribe> ACTION: Yves to adapt changes from WD in the wiki [recorded
in [14]http://www.w3.org/2005/08/17-i18n-minutes.html#action05]

reqirements
Yves: had some comments earlier
... could we talk about writing styles?
... that would be better than translation style?
Tim: That's good.
CL: You could be more generic if you talk about content style.
... for non-textual content, you are moving away from writing
Yves: yes, we could have voice for example.
... we could have a voice xml file where the text is voice stuff
... should we call that content style?
CL: yes. I'll make a note on the wiki page.
Tim: If you add meta data to a document, you have to be careful. If
you say cultural, it is still writing style.
... content style should apply to voice as well
Yves: The content of the voice data could have a specific style
... we should be able to label it
<scribe> ACTION: CL to put a note about content style [recorded in

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-its/2005JulSep/0027.html
Yves: discussion on I18N and L10N definitions
... this is mail from RI about that
... what should we do about that?
Ri: Core said if Geo defines something for the whole activity, we want
to talk about it
... ITS will have a definition of the terms as well
... we need to get all together to agree to something
Yves: should we start this on the list
Ri: we should use www-international@w3.org for that. everybody should
be on that list.
... there is a discussion on the list about bidi, I will summarize
that soon
... everybody has a different idea what the 2 terms mean
... so the list with 400 people is maybe not good
... maybe it is better to copy this to the mailing lists of the wg
... lists could be the public lists of the WGs
Yves: there are less people in these lists than in www-international.
Tim: Do we really need a canonical definition in the document?
Yves: we need some kind of definition
... as long at it is a draft, it is not an issue
... we have time to do that
Ri: we get a lot of comments on the current ITS definitions
... we maybe close to get agreement across the wg
Yves: volunteer to gather the definitions?
<scribe> ACTION: Yves to gather definitions for I18N/L10N from the
various groups [recorded in
[20]http://www.w3.org/2005/08/17-i18n-minutes.html#action07]
CL: question: have you been working on definitions and decided not to
publish them?
RI: we made some definitions in GEO, but core said that they want to
talk about it before publishing.
... we never got all the wg to get a common agreement so far
<YvesS> [21]http://esw.w3.org/topic/its0505ReqUniqueID
[21] http://esw.w3.org/topic/its0505ReqUniqueID
Yves: one change
... xml:id became a proposed rec
... felix changed one example how to check unique ids with xquery /
xslt
... could we move that as a wd?
felix: two aspects of IDs: construction of IDs and checking of IDs
Ri: construction of IDs can be made if we use document URI
<scribe> ACTION: Yves to adapt changes in the uniqueness req [recorded
in [22]http://www.w3.org/2005/08/17-i18n-minutes.html#action08]
<YvesS> [23]http://esw.w3.org/topic/its0503ReqLangLocale
[23] http://esw.w3.org/topic/its0503ReqLangLocale
Yves: some rewording of 4 paragraphs

Ri: comment
... RFC 1766 is obsoleted by RFC 3066
Yves: we have to update that in the req wd too
Ri: do you want to keep the wiki and the wd update all the time?
Yves: no, maybe we don't want to do that for many of the reqs
... but here, we have to change the reference to rfc 1766 in the wd
Ri: I ask when you want to do the changes
... do you work on the wiki or without it?
Yves: It depends on the item
... the wd items, I do not want to use the wiki anymore
... because the changes would be very small
... we have trouble with the ones which are close to wd, and which are
already in the wd
Ri: How do we change the wd stuff? via mail? the advantage of wiki is
that we see changes
Yves: There are only a few differences between wiki and reqs, like
grammar
... it is not simply copy and paste
... putting we wd text back to the wiki would be an idea
Ri: I thought of that
Yves: it is difficult because of the references
... but we could change the guidelines how to edit links in the wiki
<scribe> ACTION: Yves to take the req sections he owns in the wd back
to the wiki [recorded in

realization
... try to find the different implementation solutions

with pos info towards meaningful translation
Yves: We could have 2-4 reqs which would be discussed
... describes the first day
