Agenda for XML Core WG telcon of 2007 October 24

We have an XML Core WG phone call scheduled for Wednesday, 
October 24, from
          08:00-09:00 Pacific time aka
          11:00-12:00 Eastern time aka
          15:00-16:00 UTC
          16:00-17:00 in Ireland and the UK
          17:00-18:00 in middle (most of) Europe

We also use IRC channel #xmlcore on irc.w3.org:6665 .

**************************************************************

In case anyone is wondering, all WG members that customarily
dial into the XML Core call are in locales that are still
observing DST this week.  By the time of our f2f (which is 
our next meeting after this week), we will all be observing 
standard time.

Note, however, that the UK and Europe shift back to standard
time this Sunday October 28th whereas North America doesn't
shift back to standard time until Sunday November 4.  So if
you are traveling from Europe to North America between Oct 28
and Nov 4, be aware of local time issues.

**************************************************************

See the XML Core group page [1] for pointers to current documents
and other information.  If you have additions to the agenda, please
email them to the WG list before the start of the telcon.

Please also review our group page's task list [2] for accuracy and
completeness and be prepared to amend if necessary and accept it
at the beginning of the call.

Regrets from Norm.

3.  C14N 

The C14N 1.1 Candidate Recommendation is published at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/CR-xml-c14n11-20070621

Known Issues with Canonical XML 1.0 (C14N/1.0) WG Note 
has been published at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/NOTE-C14N-issues-20061220/

Using XML Digital Signatures in the 2006 XML Environment 
WG Note has been published at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/NOTE-DSig-usage-20061220/


C14N 1.1 Interoperability testing was performed on 27 September.  
A report of the outcome is at:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-canonicalization-comments/20
07Oct/0000

Regarding the change from 1.0 to 1.1 highlighted in
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2007Aug/0018
we will revert to 1.0 wording.

Regarding point 2 of the interoperability email, it sounds like
the issue is explained well in the email.  Glenn will try to
propose some wording to the XML Core list.

ACTION to Glenn:  Propose some new wording to address point 2
of the interoperability testing feedback email.

Point 3 complains about appendix A being too difficult to 
understand, partly because it uses 3986 language which is
also hard to understand.

ACTION to Konrad:  Send us pointers to suggestions for rewriting
appendix A.

One such pointer is

4.  xml:base, [baseURI], and IRIs -> HRRIs

The (Second Edition) PER has been published at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/PER-xmlbase-20061220/ 

It's now waiting for us to say what should happen next--whether 
we want a Director's call now or not.

We need to remember to correct the IP part of the Status section per
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-linking-comments/2007JanMar/
0000

Mike Kay thinks the defn of XML Resource Identifier is too vague. 

We decided to write an RFC to define XML Resource Identifier.
The plan is to get this to an RFC and then reference it from
XML Base (which we can then take to REC) and others.

pointing to a new IRI draft at

that contains a first pass defining LEIRIs.

ACTION to Norm, Richard, and others:  Review Martin's draft LEIRI text.
