Agenda
======
1. Accepting the minutes from the last telcon [3] and
   the current task status [2] (have any questions, comments,
   or corrections ready by the beginning of the call).

Paul gives regrets for this week; Norm will chair.


2. Miscellaneous administrivia and document reviews.

Update of the XML Namespace RDDL document.

Francois and John haved developed an updated version of what's at
http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace
The suggested new version is at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006Mar/att-0079/namespace.xhtml

CONSENSUS to go with Francois' latest modulo any fixes
Henry needs to make to ensure it is valid.

ACTION to Henry:  Update what's at 
http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace with what's at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006Mar/att-0079/namespace.xhtml 
modulo any necessary changes to make things valid.


3.  C14N 

Glenn created an editor's draft of C14N 1.1 which is up at
http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2006/02/WD-xml-c14n11

We had some discussion at the f2f--see
http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2006/02/xml-f2f-20060302-minutes.htm#c14n

At the f2f, we decided to produce a W3C WG Note documenting 
the current situation and issues and problems.

Thomas posted his f2f notes at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006Mar/0026

ACTION to Thomas:  Generate a draft of the Note.

We discussed details of how we might be able to
handle xml:base in C14N, pointing out that the
algorithm for handling xml:base cannot be concatenation.

Q: If you want to join two relative URIs is it the same 
as the merge path function? Or how should it work?

Konrad posted an email explaining our requirements and 
asking our question:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ietf-w3c/2006Mar/0002

Larry Masinter replied at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ietf-w3c/2006Mar/0003
saying we can do concatenation.

We might see if Thomas can help with the wording here.

ACTION to Glenn:  Go through past suggestions and recent
email and make a suggestion on how to proceed.


4.  xml:base, [baseURI], and IRIs.

At the f2f, we had CONSENSUS to change the 
xml:base spec to make it clear we allow IRIs as the 
value of xml:base. We also want to allow IRIs in the 
infoset [baseURI] information item.

One paragraph in the Infoset says the baseURI may
have unescaped characters, but elsewhere it says
the baseURI follows XML Base which points to RFC 2396.
If we change XML Base, we shouldn't have to change
the Infoset spec much.


5.  XLink update.

XLink is now in CR--published at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/CR-xlink11-20060328/ 

Norm sent some email about his test suite at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006Mar/0066


6. XML errata.  The published 1.0 errata document is [8], the
   published 1.1 errata document is [9], and the new (public)
   Potential Errata (PE) document is [7]. 

Re. PE 148, Henry posted a version for 1.1 at
http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2006/02/xml11-20060222.xml 

ACTION to Francois:  Merge the mustifications into XML 1.0.

We resolved some other PE at the f2f.

We decided to resolve PE140 by saying that we have 
fiddled this wording enough and we aren't going to 
fiddle it any more for fear of making it worse.

We decided to resolve PE142 by saying that we have 
fiddled this wording enough and we aren't going to 
fiddle it any more for fear of making it worse.

ACTION to François: Update the PE document accordingly
for PE 140 and 142.

We note that the resolution to PE141 has already made 
a wording change in this area, but Richard pointed out  
that the wording should be:

  In a document with an external subset or parameter
  entity references...

(no "external").

That is, we made a mistake in the earlier resolution
of PE141.  We should update the resolution of PE141
to read as shown above.

ACTION to Francois:  Update the PE and Errata documents.

With respect to PE143, after production [60], we should 
add a reference to the "No External Entity References" WFC.

ACTION to François: Update the Errata and PE document 
accordingly for PE143.


7. Namespaces in XML.

Richard suggested we take NS 1.1 and revert the two 
substantive changes (IRI and undeclared namespaces) 
to create NS 1.0 2nd Ed. The WG has consensus to do 
that, and we got approval from the team to do so.

ACTION to Richard: Draft the 2nd edition of NS 1.0 
per the above plan (perhaps by creating a single XML 
source document for 1.0 and 1.1 using some conditionals).

ACTION to Richard: Draft a NS 1.1 2nd Edition including 
this IRI work and the outstanding NS 1.1 errata which, to 
date, includes only the issue about preventing abuses of xmlns.

Richard made a start and sent email at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006Mar/0043

He will make a diff between 1.1 and 1.0 2nd Ed. 

We will have an appendix in 1.0 explaining the diffs 
between 1.0 1st Ed and 1.0 2nd Ed. (It will be the 
appendix from 1.1 minus the 1.1-specific changes.)


8. Xinclude Rec was published 2004 December 30 at:
   http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xinclude-20041220/

Our XInclude potential errata document is at:
http://www.w3.org/XML/2005/01/proposed-xinclude-errata

Daniel has updated the Errata document at
http://www.w3.org/2004/12/xinclude-errata 

ACTION to Daniel: Update the PE about IRIs for XInclude.

ACTION to Daniel: Draft XInclude 2nd Edition with all 
the errata (including the IRI one) applied.


9.  Associating stylesheets--awaiting TAG action.

Henry reports that the HTML CG has been discussing this
for a while.  They are developing a draft statement of
the issue, and Chris Lilley will raise this at the XML CG.

Chris started the discussion on the XML CG list--see
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-cg/2005Jul/thread.html#15
The XML CG will continue to discuss it for a while.


10.  Henry raises that RFC 3023 is out of date and the draft
replacement has expired.  

Chris' latest status update is at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-cg/2006Apr/0000
