Conformance Section

Hi Christian, cc'ing to public-i18n-its,

We should reformulate the conformance section, possibly before the next  
meeting. I think the last point of discussion was the types of products.  
If I remember right, you proposed

1-CL a reader / writer
2-CL a processor which processes the full semantics of selections

I proposed
1-FS schema conformance, which encompasses reading and writing
2-FS a processor which processes the full semantics of selections

Yves proposed in addition
1-YS a "visualizer"(?) which is responsible for the data categories "bidi"  
and "ruby".

As an input for our action item, I would propose to have 1-FS, 2-CL (which  
is 2-FS) and 1-YS as the products.

If we agree on this, we can talk in more detail what it means to be  
conformant to the products (although I think that will be no big deal I  
think).

I guess the discussion point is only 1-CL vs 1-FS? My reason for 1-FS is -  
as usual - that I would like to stick to established terminology. "Schema  
conformance" and "validation" are in my perspective well established  
terms, whereas "reading and writing" is IMO too general.

Looking forward for the discussion. Regards, Felix.
