We believe this has NOT yet been done.

Norm has reviewed it.

Norm has reviewed it, but it is not yet in the latest editor's draft.

ACTION to Norm:  Update the draft with the latest schemas.

CONSENSUS to go with resolution 5.5b where duplicate pseudo-attributes
mean the whole PI MUST be ignored.

TENTANTIVE CONSENSUS (without Simon and John) to go with option #1 for 
issue #7 (aka option #1 for issue #11) which says that the value of
all pseudo-attributes (including href) just gets passed through to
the (rest of the) application.  Of course, another layer of the
application can do whatever validation of the href value.

CONSENSUS on issue #15 to go with Henry's latest suggestion at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Jul/0072
and let the editors develop the specific wording for the draft.

> 
> We discussed that we should add a conformance statement

>  An application (as defined in [XML]) conforms to this spec
>  if is processing all XML processing instructions whose

> 
> but didn't get complete closure.
> 
> ACTION to Henry:  Suggest some conformance wording in email.

Done:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Jul/0017

We leave it to the editors to provide specific wording in the draft.

> 
> ACTION to Henry: Check to ensure it is acceptable to create
> a draft PER but no errata.

We plan to publish a "draft PER" document and request comments
before we publish the actual PER.  We don't plan to write a
bunch of individual errata.

> 
> Henry and Simon will be co-editors of the AssocSS 2nd Edition.

ACTION to Henry and Simon:  Produce a draft of the AssocSS 2nd Ed PER.
