Updating the Unicode references involved a few changes here and there, so please check carefully the new PE164 at http://www.w3.org/XML/2006/08/proposed-xml10-4e-and-xml11-2e-errata#PE164 I also made changes to other PEs from the decisions of the last meeting: PE150: updated to point to BCP 47 instead of RFC 4646 PE160: added some text to guide visitors to deleted Appendix B PE162: dropped on the floor PE163: added the "+": "VersionNum ::= '1.' [0-9]+" in case we go past XML 1.9 ;-) Might avoid a comment, good point Paul. -- François > > paul > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: public-xml-core-wg-request@w3.org >> [mailto:public-xml-core-wg-request@w3.org] On Behalf Of John Cowan >> Sent: Wednesday, 2008 January 09 20:11 >> To: François Yergeau >> Cc: public-xml-core-wg@w3.org >> Subject: Re: Minutes for XML Core WG telcon of 2008 January 2 >> >> >> François Yergeau scripsit: >> >>> BTW, I haven't seen John's suggestions for updating >> Appendix J (PE160). >> >> Resending didn't seem to work either, so here they are: >> >> The currently proposed Appendix J consists of suggestions for >> sensible XML >> 1.0 5th Edition names, and is directly cloned from XML 1.1.
