   agenda agreed

html5 conformance

   ts20/its20.html#conformance

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

   fsasaki: spec currently discussed conformance for XML but not
   HTML

   phil: tried some html5 parsing in a browser client way, but not
   through the whole value chain
   ... would be using xliff in other places

   <dF> daveL, please mute yourself while not speaking..

   <fsasaki> 4.2 Conformance Type 2: The Processing Expectations
   for ITS Markup - separate mention of HTML5, separate tests

   fsasaki: asking does it make sense separate conformance
   sections for HTML5 and separate conformance tests - which are
   available already
   ... does everyone agree

   phil: clarifies that for html5 only planning to support quality
   data categories

   fsasaki: this is OK to only support one data category

   phil: for quality it would probably just be local mark-up as
   well

   <dF> Felix, we lost you?

   fsasaki: this is fine also

   shaunm: also planning to support HTML to the same level of XML
   currently, but not in the timeframe to support the spec
   progression

   fsasaki: this is fine, since it may make sense to have lower
   bar for conformance testing than for support in products
   ... so we push as much as possible for HTML, but its not then
   so critical to push on that for conofrmance

   <fsasaki_> dave: agree with felix

   <fsasaki_> .. HTML parsing is easy to do

   <fsasaki_> .. makes it feasible to show HTML on business
   products, that's a learning curve

   <fsasaki_> .. looking into the tests with leroy

   <fsasaki_> .. once you have done a few tests, work with the
   data categories gets easier

   <fsasaki_> .. the business requirements are natural a different
   area

   <fsasaki_> .. but the pain barrier for parsing HTML gets easier

   <fsasaki_> .. its the same pattern for many data categories

   <dF> sounds good

   fsaski: any further question on issue of separating HTML
   implementaiton in useful products and the process of
   conformance testing

   Yves_: agrees

   Pedro: agrees

   <scribe> ACTION: fsaski to write up and close ISSUE-47
   [recorded in
   [15]http://www.w3.org/2012/09/13-mlw-lt-minutes.html#action01]

   <trackbot> Sorry, couldn't find user - fsaski

   <scribe> ACTION: fsasaki to write up and close ISSUE-47

49

     [17] https://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/track/issues/49

   fsasaki: some mappings for quality data category currently in
   annex that Arle had developed from detailed knowledge of
   current tools
   ... but the tool may change over time.

   <fsasaki_>

     [18] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-its-ig/

   fsasaki: so should we move this to a separate area, i.e. the
   ITS IG
   ... this way discussion on these topics can continue after the
   completion of the MLW-LT WG

   Yves_: agrees

   fsasaki: this mailing list is completely public
   ... put should this be a wiki or a html page?

   Yves_: probably easier to use the wiki

   <scribe> ACTION: felix to move this material to the ITS IG wiki
   and remove the issue [recorded in
   [19]http://www.w3.org/2012/09/13-mlw-lt-minutes.html#action03]

   <trackbot> Created ACTION-216 - Move this material to the ITS
   IG wiki and remove the issue [on Felix Sasaki - due
   2012-09-20].

[20]https://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/track/issues/
48

     [20] https://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/track/issues/48

   yves: while inmplementing storage size, all line break in XML
   may be different in depending on platform, which may change the
   line count
   ... so asks for ideas on how to address this?

   dF: this is needed
   ... if the informaiton in the bom

   yves: proposes a way of recodnign this in the data category
   ... need to include the value to be counted, including a
   default

   felix; should it be a list of codepoints

   yves; crap

   scribe: we can't do that
   ... will come up a proposal on the mailing list

   dF: propose considering CRLF as shown in editors
   ... and agree default is important

   yves: guess line feed would be the default
   ... will come up with a short proposal on the list

   <scribe> ACTION: yves to propose solution for recording
   soragesize count behaviour for line breaks [recorded in
   [21]http://www.w3.org/2012/09/13-mlw-lt-minutes.html#action04]

   <trackbot> Created ACTION-217 - Propose solution for recording
   soragesize count behaviour for line breaks [on Yves Savourel -
   due 2012-09-20].

[22]https://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/track/issues/
45

     [22] https://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/track/issues/45

   felix: a lot of discussion in week on what was needed for HTML5
   ... which for a node is a document would say what ITS meta-data
   would be present

   phil: to understand more clearly would it be a read only API?

   felix; this is what he had in mind

   scribe: but also assume a write API

   shaun: would this be a requirement for ITS conformance

   felix: no, wasn't intention to specify the API in the standard,
   just to provide it as a useful peice of support software
   ... this might help for people to make use of ITS

   <fsasaki_> dave: it is a nice thing in the portfolio

   <fsasaki_> .. esp. for editing you can have an API only for
   local it seems

   <fsasaki_> .. it just makes an easy entry point

   <fsasaki_> .. mobile might be useful for this too

   phil: Ok so its clearer that its javascript, this is similar to
   what we've been prototyping
   ... but hadn't planned a releasable api
   ... have found a way to save output as a serialised XML file

   Des: this sound more like a client side library, suitable for
   best practice in a java script library

   phil: yes, felt this would be useful in scenario where access
   to other tools was limited but could enable access to some data
   categories
   ... can certainly see some common function we might want to
   use, but a way from that yet

   Des: there may be issues with browser dependency

   felix: it useful if we have initail exploration just to show
   that we are considering that issue

46

     [23] https://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/track/issues/46

   felix: so fleix to close this issue, and perhaps raise again at
   TPAC
   ... had editorial comments from dave and aaron
   ... but looking for volunteer to implement some of these

   <fsasaki_> dave: happy to work on the word smithing part

   <fsasaki_> .. would be good to separate this between a few
   people

   <fsasaki_> .. don't want to go too far, and do that in small
   bits

   <fsasaki_> .. examples thing is a good idea, but takes a lot of
   time

   <fsasaki_> .. one question: in terms of the process

   <fsasaki_> .. in terms of priorities: can we still do that
   after November

   felix: what document is on last call, as is out december
   deadline, this mean every word is finished
   ... strictly to the normative parts,
   ... but if its to the non normative parts to a large extent
   this is a problem also
   ... so changes are possible, but last call really mean freezing
   the text.
   ... so we need to do this before the end of November

   Shaun: happy to take on some of that work

   felix; there are comments form dave and aaron

   <fsasaki_> dave: any help is good, but shaun is in a good
   position to look into HTML and XML

   <fsasaki_> .. so trying with some of the examples might help

   <fsasaki_> .. there is good examples here already, but they are
   worth a review

   <fsasaki_> .. and the HTML is worth some effort

   <scribe> ACTION: shaun to provide some HMTL and revised XML
   example for introductor section, referencing comments from Dave
   and Aaron, but based on real use expereince [recorded in
   [24]http://www.w3.org/2012/09/13-mlw-lt-minutes.html#action05]

   <trackbot> Created ACTION-218 - Provide some HMTL and revised
   XML example for introductor section, referencing comments from
   Dave and Aaron, but based on real use expereince [on Shaun
   McCance - due 2012-09-20].

preparation for prague

2Sep/0045.html

     [25] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-multilingualweb-lt/2012Sep/0045.html

   felix: some data categories stioll not very stable - proveance,
   mt confidence, text analysis
   ... we know people are working on showcases but we need good
   specification also
   ... so we need some face to face time in the meeting to wrap
   these up

   <fsasaki_> dave: I'll take care of disambiguation, phil of
   provenance

   <fsasaki_> ,, declan will look at the spec and implementation
   too

   felix: the other one is text analytics annotation
   ... asks DavidF about view on how certain part apply to
   document or segement, and also how to encode MT engine
   identification

   dF: though this was fairly stable, but we didn't want to
   prescribe how to represent this
   ... the requirement is that it unique on the platform but may
   then be dependent of the options the platform operator wanted
   to adopt
   ... though the t extension seems a good fit

   felix: was not clear how how prescriptive the text was meant to
   be on use of t values
   ... since if MAY is used in a formal manner, that means that it
   is optional but still needs a conformance test for that option
   ... seems to make sense, lets see whet delcan thinks as he
   revises this.
   ... Dave and David will be at LRC next week
   ... jirka will arrange a special fun event in Prague, evening
   of the first day - evening 25th
