> ACTION to Paul, Glenn:  Read Thomas' outline and give comments.

Paul reviewed and thought it was fine.

Konrad is not sure it's good for the default behavior
to be the new C14N.  

Thomas says there are two issues:

1.  whatever behavior a future version of XML Sig may have

2.  what kind of behavior is safe in the current environment

He wants to leave open the first issue, but for the second,
he's saying that the safest is to put in a URI specifying
the new C14N.

Thomas expects to have a first editors draft Monday, June 5th.

ACTION to Thomas:  Produce a first editors draft of the 
C14N note by Monday, June 5th.

> After a discussion of how we might be able to

Glenn made a pass over the weekend, but is still cleaning
up wording.

ACTION to Glenn:  Send out a new draft by May 5th.

> Konrad asked about what needs to happen with digsig.
> 
> We believe the point of this issue is that the DigSig spec
> may still need a change to work properly even after we have
> come out with C14N 1.1.
> 
> Thomas believes it is a problem with XML Sig spec, but one
> that can be worked around without too many problems and
> potentially a non-normative erratum.
> 
> 
> 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

> 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]. 
> 
> Francois has developed an almost-ready editor's draft
> of both XML 1.0 4th Ed and XML 1.1 2nd Ed.
> 
> Francois still needs to double check that it has all
> the errata and then there's the status section and
> new pubrules.  And then we should have an XML 1.0 4th Ed.
> 
> Similarly with 1.1 2nd Ed.

ACTION to Francois for next telcon:  Produce PER-ready 
drafts of XML 1.0 4th Ed and XML 1.1 2nd Ed.

> 
> 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.
> 
> Richard sent his progress to date as described at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006Apr/0025
> 
> The erratum about more cases of abusing the xml and xmlns
> prefix has not yet been published on the Errata page and
> folded into the spec.
> 
> ACTION to Norm, Lew (and DV):  Review Richard's drafts.

Norm reviewed and thought there were fine.

> ACTION to Richard:  Suggest wording for the erratum about 
> more cases of abusing the xml and xmlns prefix.

Done as the wording at
http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2001/05/proposed-xml-names-errata#NPE26

CONSENSUS on the new wording which is now in countdown
until May 17.

ACTION to Richard:  Apply this erratum to both 1.0 and 1.1
new editions.

ACTION to Richard (after countdown):  Apply this PE to 
the 2 Errata documents.

Paul and Norm reviewed and thought it was fine.

> ACTION to Francois:  Review section 4.1.1 and see if it
> references the XML spec as we intended.

ACTION to Francois continued.  See
http://www.w3.org/XML/2006/04/XInclude/REC-xinclude-20060423-review.html#IRIs

Still need to handle errata document for the new edition
and other front matter.

No updated status.

> When 3023bis becomes a reality, we might have some
> specs that need updating for the reference, but we
> don't expect any major changes.
> 
> FWIW, Paul sent some comments on 3023bis to the XML CG at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-cg/2006Apr/0026
> Feel free to comment on these on the xml-core mailing list.

Paul and Henry discussed a bit.  The only conclusion is
that we need to look at the wording of 3023bis to ensure
it says what we want. 

We will revisit next week.
