Here is my 2nd draft PER requestion for XML 1.0 4th Ed. ACTIONS/QUESTIONS to Francois below. The only missing bits are the URLs at which Francois will put the latest drafts. Francois, I've made suggestions below (flagged with @@@)--let me know if you end up putting them somewhere different. (Note, I made the URL for the review copy a public one.) Also, I assume the status will be changed slightly, so I'll have to update that for the final PER request. paul --------- Eventually-to: timbl@w3.org; steve@w3.org Eventually-cc: public-xml-core-wg@w3.org; webreq@w3.org; chairs@w3.org; w3t-comm@w3.org The XML Core WG requests publication of Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (Fourth Edition) available at http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2006/05/xml10-4e/Overview.html @@@ as a Proposed Edited Recommendation (PER). The URL cited above is for the most recent Member-only version of the specification as of 2 June 2006 but dated 14 June 2006 in anticipation of publication then. That file is set up to be published by moving it to http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/PER-xml-20060614/Overview.html The XML 1.0 Third Edition was published on 4 February 2004 at http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xml-20040204/ as a revised Recommendation. All changes to the document are recorded in the Errata to the Third Edition document at http://www.w3.org/XML/xml-V10-3e-errata with the exception of a few "RFC 2119 must/should" adjustments which are all highlighted (along with all the other changes) in the diff-marked review copy available at http://www.w3.org/XML/2006/06/PER-xml-20060614-review.html @@@ The WG's decision to request publication as a PER was taken during a WG telcon on 2006 May 31 whose minutes may be found at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006May/0068 SCHEDULE We propose a publication date of 2006 June 14. We propose that the PER period lasts from the date of publication until 31 July 2006. PROPOSED PER TITLE, ABSTRACT AND STATUS SECTIONS Abstract The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a subset of SGML that is completely described in this document. Its goal is to enable generic SGML to be served, received, and processed on the Web in the way that is now possible with HTML. XML has been designed for ease of implementation and for interoperability with both SGML and HTML. Status of this Document This section describes the status of this document at the time of its publication. Other documents may supersede this document. A list of current W3C publications and the latest revision of this technical report can be found in the W3C technical reports index at http://www.w3.org/TR/. This document specifies a syntax created by subsetting an existing, widely used international text processing standard (Standard Generalized Markup Language, ISO 8879:1986(E) as amended and corrected) for use on the World Wide Web. It is a product of the XML Core Working Group as part of the XML Activity. The English version of this specification is the only normative version. However, for translations of this document, see http://www.w3.org/2003/03/Translations/byTechnology?technology=REC-xml. This document is a Proposed Edited Recommendation of the W3C. This fourth edition is not a new version of XML. As a convenience to readers, it incorporates the changes dictated by the accumulated errata (available at http://www.w3.org/XML/xml-V10-3e-errata) to the Third Edition of XML 1.0, dated 4 February 2004. In addition, the markup introduced in the third edition, to clarify when prescriptive keywords are used in the formal sense defined in [IETF RFC 2119], has been modified to better match the intent of [IETF RFC 2119]. W3C Advisory Committee Members are invited to send formal review comments to the W3C Team until 31 July 2006. Advisory Committee Representatives should consult their WBS questionnaires. The public is invited to send comments on this document to xml-editor@w3.org; archives are available. For the convenience of readers, an XHTML version with color-coded revision indicators is also provided; this version highlights each change due to an erratum published in the errata list, together with a link to the particular erratum in that list. Most of the errata in the list provide a rationale for the change. An implementation report is available at http://www.w3.org/XML/2006/05/xml10-4e-implementation.html. A Test Suite is maintained to help assessing conformance to this specification. Publication as a Proposed Edited Recommendation does not imply endorsement by the W3C Membership. This is a draft document and may be updated, replaced or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to cite this document as other than work in progress. This document was produced by a group operating under the 5 February 2004 W3C Patent Policy. W3C maintains a public list of any patent disclosures made in connection with the deliverables of the group; that page also includes instructions for disclosing a patent. An individual who has actual knowledge of a patent which the individual believes contains Essential Claim(s) must disclose the information in accordance with section 6 of the W3C Patent Policy. Paul Grosso and Norman Walsh, chairs of the XML Core WG.
