LEIRIs

The most recent editor's draft is at

XML 1.0/1.1
-----------
Henry/Richard discussed the test suite issues raised by Frans Englich:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-testsuite/2007Mar/ 

Richard reports that the 2005 issue has been resolved in the latest
draft. 

The one from 2006, character references with numbers with dozens 
of digits, may not be. 

ACTION: Richard to construct a test case for these issues.

We have several PEs in countdown until our next telcon--see
http://www.w3.org/XML/2006/08/proposed-xml10-4e-and-xml11-2e-errata.html


XML 5th Edition
----------------
ACTION to Francois:  Generate XML 1.0 5th Edition with 
namechar and XML version changes and approved errata 
(and warning about upcoming PE about LEIRIs) and reflecting
the latest agreed upon changes (to PE150 and 160).

We will plan to vote to take XML 1.0 5th Ed to PER
on our next telcon provided we have an updated draft
from Francois.

When we take 5th Ed to PER, we will write in "PER exit 
criteria" that we must satisfy before going to Rec.

ACTION to Paul:  Edit the XML 1.0 5th Edition SOTD to
include "PER exit criteria".


XML Base
--------
We need to produce another PER-ready draft of XML Base 
referencing LEIRIs.

Replace the first sentence of 3.1 with:

 The value of an xml:base attribute is a LEIRI [ref].

Delete the second sentence; leave the third.

Richard has looked at the draft and there are several other
places that will need changing.

We also no longer need the XLink normative reference.

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

ACTION to Richard:  Produce another PER-ready draft of XML Base.


XLink 1.1
---------
ACTION to Norm: Produce a PR-ready draft of XLink 1.1 with 
a reference to the IRI RFC for LEIRIs.

Section 5.4: 

replace para starting:

 The value of the href attribute is an XML resource identifer...

with:

 The value of the href attribute is a LEIRI [ref].

and then delete subsection 5.4.1 but move the para about 
relative references up into 5.4.

ACTION to Norm:  Suggest appropriate changes to XLink 1.1.


XInclude
--------
We may have several places that need fixing.

http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xinclude-20061115

3.1, href attribute is a LEIRI

See also 4.1.1 (details TBD) which can't reference XML 1.1
since we don't define XML Resource Identifiers in XML 1.1.
Just replace that para with the "They are LEIRIs" para.

See also
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2007Dec/0007
for more details on the necessary changes.

ACTION to Daniel: Produce a PER-ready draft of XInclude 3rd Ed
with appropriate references to the IRI RFC for LEIRIs.
