<Sandy> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-sml/2007Aug/0053.html

8. Null references

<Sandy> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-sml/2007Aug/0055.html

discussion on using optional elements in the example in the above email

<johnarwe> <alternate sml:ref'="true">

<johnarwe> <altprop1> foo </..>

<johnarwe> </alternate>

<pratul> Why does the producer say sml:ref="true" here?

<johnarwe> <alternate sml:ref'="true"/>

<zulah2> Scribe: zulah2

John: Do we think that there is enough value in having the concept of a null reference

general agreement

John: second question is whether sml: target Required=true should allow null references

Kirk: would like to see proposal in writing before agreeing to this

Discussion: we have a general discussion about what it means to have tergetRequired=true and then have a null ref. But this depends on how we define targetRequired=true.

John: If we use the following definition, if targetRequired=true then null refs are not allowed. And null refs are only valid when when targetRequired is false or not specified. Do we need some other semantic representation for Sandy's case.
... are there any objections to saying targetRequired=true prohibits null references

we have consensus

John: third case for discussion then is empty references
... is everyone commfortable with saying that we don't have empty references

<johnarwe> <alternate sml:ref'="true"/>

the scribe has a hard stop at 1

<johnarwe> <alternate sml:ref'="true" sml:null="true"/>

<johnarwe> will continue this via email
