RFC 3023 replacement status. We should be tracking/reviewing this. paul -----Original Message----- From: www-tag-request@w3.org [mailto:www-tag-request@w3.org] On Behalf Of Chris Lilley Sent: Monday, 08 November, 2004 14:02 To: Williams, Stuart (HP Labs, Bristol) Cc: www-tag@w3.org Subject: 3023 update (was Re: Agenda TAG Telcon: 8th Nov 2004) On Saturday, November 6, 2004, 12:30:00 AM, Stuart wrote: WSHLB> 2.2.1 Media-Types Issues WSHLB> 1.

Making well formed XML not well formed considered harmful (not in -00 draft, but agreed) tentative agreement - seems therefore to be agreement that the xml encoding declaration and the charset (if supplied) should match. disagreement - charset. Still says optional but strongly recommended, TAG wants optional and only supplied if correct. TAG wants default to be 'see xml encoding declaration'. So, some media types could omit the parameter entirely. However, attempt to register image/svg+xml without a charset (backed up by pointing to TAG findings) met resistance. Still therefore a conflict with TAG findings. http://www.imc.org/ietf-xml-mime/mail-archive/msg00978.html - xml 1.1 or 1.0 (soap 10 only as schema is 1.0 only) unclear areas - extent to which dispatching on media types really happens discussion - some on www-tag, moved to ietf-xml-mime document publishing http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-murata-kohn-lilley-xml-00.txt is published draft-murata-kohn-lilley-xml-01.txt is created but we are discussing what else it should say :) so its not published. -- Chris Lilley mailto:chris@w3.org Chair, W3C SVG Working Group Member, W3C Technical Architecture Group
