Al Gilman questions & remarks

    Carry forward to next telecon. Everyone have a look.

LC Review completion and DoC

    Lofton suggests that we move the completion date out two weeks from
    today.

    resolutions of Issues 1, 2, and 3 (in the draft Disposition of
    Comments) can probably be endorsed today

    there were no objections to approving resolution of Issue #1

    there were no objections to approving resolution of Issue #2

    Issue #3: DoC's clarifying sentence about Style Properties is okay.
    Benoit's criticism of 'locus' remains open.

    Dieter pointed out that locus is not precise as used in the
    getObjExt text, because an APS can contain multiple drawn
    primitives, and various definitions of 'locus' seem more appropriate
    for single graphical primitives.

    Lofton said its usage needs to include all of the graphical
    primitives within the APS

    Dieter said it also doen't specify how to deal with rasters

    davec - says that it should be the extents of the raster "patch"

    Action item for someone who disagrees with the current wording to
    propose better wording

I18N comments

    I18N submitted some comments that are located
    [12]http://www.w3.org/International/reviews/0811-webcgm/

      [12] http://www.w3.org/International/reviews/0811-webcgm/

    I18N comment 1 is editorial. Proposed response (agenda reference
    [$1\47]) approved.

    I18N comment 2 will be clarified to remove the ambiguity. Proposed
    response (agenda reference [$1\47]) approved.

    I18N comment 3 is a reply to question. Proposed response to comment
    number 3 was approved (agenda reference [$1\47]).

    I18N comment 4 is about how to strip out whitespace. All agree with
    Lofton's proposed wording (agenda reference [$1\47]).

    I18N comment item 6:

    We think this means comparsions should be made in unicode

    <trackbot> Created ACTION-58 - Will look at unicode normalization
    and try to figure out what it means [on Stuart Galt - due
    2008-11-27].

    I18N comment 5:

    ISOLatin 1 is the default charater set

    lofton: ISOlatin1 is the WebCGM default character set. The majority
    of WebCGM content for which the normalization rules were designed is
    ISOLatin1. Which is why it was specifically mentioned. It was not
    our intent to limit it to only ISOLatin1 but in character sets that
    are very different from ISOLatin1 the rules might give odd results.
