From last week's minutes: Regarding IDs and IDREFs, we have some reference fixup wording at: http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/CR-xinclude-20040413/#references-property but it needs slight modification to account for the fact that the references property is a list (at least, that's what the scribe thought was the issue). ACTION to Henry: Suggest corrected wording for the above referenced section. Further investigation convinced me that in fact the right thing to do here is nothing. The Infoset REC [1] reads: "[references] . . . If the type is IDREF or IDREFS and any of the IDs does not appear as the value of an ID attribute in the document. . . then this property has no value or is unknown, depending on whether the [all declarations processed] property of the document information item is true or false. If the type is IDREF or IDREFS and any of the IDs appears as the value of more than one ID attribute in the document. . . then this property has no value. The XInclude CR draft [2] reads: "If for any of the [[IDREF/IDREFS]] values, no element or more than one element is found, the [references] property has no value." This seems sufficiently parallel to me to be fine as it stands. ht [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-infoset/#infoitem.attribute [2] http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/CR-xinclude-20040413/#references-property -- Henry S.
