Test suite

    <fsasaki>

    lt-tests/2012Nov/0071.html

      [14] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-multilingualweb-lt-tests/2012Nov/0071.html

    fsasaki: What is the nature of the second milestone?
    ... can you summarize?

    <fsasaki> see milestones also at

    DomJones1: M2 is less formal
    ... M3 and on are stronger, more formal

    Yves_: nothing to add to Dom's summary

    philr: I would have approached it in a meaningfully different
    way
    ... does everybody need to implement all the categories?

    fsasaki: the minimum is 2 implementations that produce the test
    suite output
    ... as discussed, it is for demonstrating interoperability
    ... we need the extra effort of interop testing to show that
    the implementations do the same across scenarios

    <fsasaki>

    fsasaki: the recorded commitments are for the test suite

    <DomJones1> ack

    philr: are there strong rulings re parsing methods?

    fsasaki: there are no such rules, just input and output files,
    no questions for your methodology in between

    <omstefanov> will there be any independent running of these
    tests?

    <chriLi> +queue

    leroy: people asked if they can modify test suite files
    ... can correct obvious errors, but discuss anything other
    before changing

    chriLi: more general question, any decision for using test
    case, mandate for use cases?

    <omstefanov> +omstefanov

    <fsasaki> [17]http://www.w3.org/2012/09/mlw-lt-charter.html

      [17] http://www.w3.org/2012/09/mlw-lt-charter.html

    <omstefanov> +queue

    fsasaki: test suite is w3c requirement
    ... CR phase should start in March
    ... test suite is critical for proving interoperability during
    CR
    ... any other questions?

    Des: question on timing..
    ... I could not do it within the publicly given time frame

    fsasaki: are you referring to your implementation effort?

    Des: yes

    fsasaki: Do not worry, with exception of LQ Precis, all
    categories are covered by other commitments
    ... continue contributing tests

    <DomJones1> Wanted to ask / minute that if any implementors
    have any issues with keeping to test-suite dates could they
    please let Dominic know as soon as possible. This way we can
    work with you to match resources and the time frame.

    <scribe> ACTION: Felix to nudge data category owners asking for
    test suite contributions by the end of the year [recorded in
    [18]http://www.w3.org/2012/11/26-mlw-lt-minutes.html#action02]

    <trackbot> Created ACTION-319 - Nudge data category owners
    asking for test suite contributions by the end of the year [on
    Felix Sasaki - due 2012-12-03].

Drop localization quality precis

    <fsasaki>
    [19]http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/drafts/i
    ts20/its20.html#lqprecis

      [19] http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/drafts/its20/its20.html#lqprecis

    checking of global rules did not progress

    <fsasaki> "100 (inclusive) with higher values indicating a
    better score"

    <fsasaki>
    [20]https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgIk0-aoSKOadG
    5HQmJDT2EybWVvVC1VbnF5alN2S3c#gid=0

      [20] https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgIk0-aoSKOadG5HQmJDT2EybWVvVC1VbnF5alN2S3c#gid=0

    fsasaki: It is hard to read, contains nested rules, not enough
    work here, not enough test suite commitments
    ... only Vistatec and UL committing to test this, this is thin
    ... looking for a champion, no need to actually edit the spec,
    but needs work on exact specification text

    philr: I feel it has a role to play
    ... there was a vision for far reaching mechanism, eventually
    non-normative..
    ... I am not up to speed with tool ref, which might be the
    issue
    ... I will try my best to move this by the end of this week
    ... I agree it must be dropped if little progress this week

    fsasaki: E.g. readiness was dropped due to lack of consensus
    ... this might mean tabling till the 2.1

    <fsasaki> ACTION: phil to work on lq precis to see if we can
    keep it in the spec [recorded in
    [21]http://www.w3.org/2012/11/26-mlw-lt-minutes.html#action03]

    <trackbot> Created ACTION-320 - Work on lq precis to see if we
    can keep it in the spec [on Phil Ritchie - due 2012-12-03].

    Arle: offering help to philr to work on the category by the end
    of this week

    philr: accepting help offer..

    <Jirka> yep

    fsasaki: creating action 320

    Jirka: Should I add it to the schema?

    fsasaki: This cannot wait for the next week because Jirla is
    working on the normative schema
    ... we would need hard commitment or drop it
    ... results by tomorrow, or so.., would that work if you get
    results be wednesday, Jirka?

    philr: wed lunch time?

    <Jirka> yep, wed is ok

    Arle and philr agreeing working time Wed morning, forming LQP
    task force

Closing ISSUE-42 tools information

    fsasaki: last mail from Yves

    Yves_: we need to have this attribute specified for some
    categories
    ... like mtConfidence
    ... thing getting hairy on the global side, becuase it can have
    different inheritance behavior to the category
    ... it might be OK on local level only, but you could not
    address attributes
    ... we might rule out a bunch of formats.. we seem to be
    running in circles

    fsasaki: another proposal by Dave

    daveL: scared by global rules here, i.e. agreement with Yves
    basically
    ... argument, you need it cases where schema cannot be changed,
    might not need it anyway

    <chriLi> What's the reference to Yves' mail?

    daveL: local expression of tool ref might inherit to
    attributes, unclear if we say so.

    fsasaki: Can we close the issue as is

    Yves_: the caveat is that in mtConfdence you would need both
    global and local

    fsasaki: It would be soved with a note? we even do not need a
    note..

    Yves_: agreed

    <fsasaki> close issues-42

    <fsasaki> close issue-42

    <trackbot> ISSUE-42 Tool and confidence related information is
    similar for mtConfidence, textAnalysisAnnotation, quality
    closed

    <fsasaki>
    [22]https://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/track/i
    ssues/open

      [22] https://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/track/issues/open

    felix: open topics are editorial isssues, and xliff mapping, so
    nothing that would prevent us from moving to last calls

    fsasaki: I formally invite people to express any issues with
    normative parts of the spec for LC

Actions needed for the LC draft

    <fsasaki> action-286?

      [26] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-multilingualweb-lt/2012Nov/0186.html

    fsasaki: Yves did that. Is there a need to chenge anything in
    the spec?

    Yves_: Looking at the examples.

    issues with mapping to XLIFF

    toolref and pointers cannot be mapped onto XLIFF

    <fsasaki> scribe: fsasaki

    davidF: if I map MT confidence to XLIFF
    ... and I don't know who produdced that
    ... I lost all information

    yves: not saying you cannot put the information
    ... but you cannot do that with a pointer

    dave: Yves is reffering to toolsRef
    ... have to think about that

    <dF> DaveL: the issue os with toolref in Provenace not the Tool
    Reference element

    dave: will look at it tonight, we can discuss at the call
    tomorrow

    <scribe> scribe: dF

    UNKNOWN_SPEAKER: you are right that this might be the only
    major point for ponters, it might be otherwise good to get rid
    of pointers
    ... this will be adressed in the editting call totmorrow

    <fsasaki> ACTION: felix to make sure next call we discuss
    poiner issues for proveancne and toolsRef [recorded in

    ... is there someone on the call who was through them, or
    volunteers to go through them

    <fsasaki> ACTION: daveL to check edits at
    [29]http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-multilingualweb-
    lt/2012Nov/0202.html [recorded in

    fsasaki, start meeting with splitting up and fork parallel
    editting

    scribe: meeting agian in an hour or so.., depend on how many
    have editting set up

    daveL: might have issues with too many instances of goto, but
    might do also skype

    <chriLi> +queue

    fsasaki: editting can be done fully offline, the others can
    make a coffee break

    omstafanov: what about independent testing?

    fsasaki: what do you mean by independent?

    omstefanov: the tests are designed by implmeneters, does any
    one verify if ENLASO indeed conforms?

    fsasaki: the idea is that the tests and results are public
    ... it is OK to base test results on the same library across
    implementations, but this all will be reviewed by w3c mgmt

    omstefanov: thanks, this is answered..

    DomJones1: We hope that the transparent test suite will attract
    independent implementers (not now in the group)

    chriLi: ... I started going through the spec, normative and
    non-normative.. Is it a good time to post my commments on the
    non-normative part of the spec now?

    fsasaki: Christian is going through explanatory sections, but
    we only need to stabilize the normative parts now..
    ... about "what is the time for feedback on non-normative"
    parts: I would say as soon as possible, but it might just take
    after the last call draft publication before we come back to
    comments

Stability of quality issue types

    <fsasaki>

    Arle: It does not require normative changes
    ... just explanatory

    fsasaki: discussion to continue on the list

AOB

    fsasaki: AOB? Nothing
