The XML Core WG telcons are every other week. Our next telcon will be April 8. Status and open actions ======================= Unicode normalization in XML 1.0 -------------------------------- Addison Phillips of I18N sent email about Unicode Normalization in XML 1.0 5th Ed.; see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Feb/0019 Allowing canonical equivalents to be treated as identical directly in XML implies that an element's start tag and end tag could be character-for-character different. This is not currently the case--such would be not well-formed and the input is therefore not XML--and the WG does not want to make it the case. We had no objections to adding some "motherhood" notes saying that XML producers SHOULD produce normalized output. We are still considering whether we should put XML 1.1 wording about normalization checking into XML 1.0. ACTION to Henry: Discuss with others at the AC meeting the possibility of adding to XML 1.0 via erratum the "should" normalization checking from XML 1.1. Paul provided a status update to Addison and I18N at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Mar/0005 HTML request for clearer XML serialization ------------------------------------------ Henry raised the issue that HTML folks think the XML spec is broken because it doesn't define error recovery and doesn't discuss serialization. ACTION to Henry: Send email to the XML Core WG list outlining the suggestion to define a serialization spec including the rationale. Overlap between Powder and LEIRIs --------------------------------- At http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Mar/0006 Henry writes: Please review section 2.1.3 of the forthcoming draft of Protocol for Web Description Resources (POWDER): Grouping of Resources [1]: It says things about e.g. entity expansion which I think at risk of confusing proper layering, and it also doesn't seem to recognise the LEIRI spec. Unfortunately, this is already a PR, and I'm not sure I can wrap my head around this just now without help and we don't have a telcon scheduled until April 8. If anyone has any ideas, please send email. Pointer Methods in RDF ---------------------- The ERT WG has issued a FPWD entitled "Pointer Methods in RDF": http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/WD-Pointers-in-RDF-20090310/ This seems to overlap with XPointer (or it should). Norm reviewed this for the XML Core WG at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Mar/0014 and there has been some follow up email discussion. XML Test Suite -------------- See also http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xml-test-suite Henry/Richard discussed the test suite issues raised by Frans Englich: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-testsuite/2007Mar/ ACTION: Richard to construct a test case for these issues. Namespaces in XML 1.0/1.1 ------------------------- See also http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#ns1.0 and http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#ns1.1. The NS PE doc is at http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2001/05/proposed-xml-names-errata.html Richard added some discussion at http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2001/05/proposed-xml-names-errata.html#npe29 The WG agreed with his direction and asked that he go forward with it. ACTION to Richard: Fill in a proposed resolution for NPE29. xml:id ------ The xml:id Recommendation is at http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/REC-xml-id-20050909/ John Cowan submitted a proposed erratum at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Jan/0009 Consensus: The sentence "A document that uses xml:id attributes that have a declared type other than xs:ID will always generate xml:id errors" in Appendix D.3 should be deleted. ACTION to Henry: Update the Errata document at http://www.w3.org/2005/09/xml-id-errata ACTION to Henry: Think about the appropriateness of the same sentence in Appendix D.2. XLink 1.1 --------- See also http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xlink1.1 The XLink 1.1 Last Call has been published at http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/WD-xlink11-20080331/ The LC review period ended 16 May 2008. Norm has prepared a DoC at http://www.w3.org/XML/2008/05/xlinklc/ ACTION to Norm: Update the DoC. ACTION to Norm: Update XLink 1.1 to refer to the LEIRI note. There's an open question about whether the XSD/DTD should default the xlink:type attribute value. None of this effects our last call because the XSD/DTD are not normative. ACTION to Henry, John: Produce a basic level conformance XSD and RelaxNG schema for XLink. We plan to skip CR and going directly to PR. Paul drafted a PR transition request at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Mar/0013 The Implementation Report at http://www.w3.org/XML/2006/01/xlink11-implementation is pitiful. We'll need to augment this to be able to request PR. XInclude 3rd Edition PER ------------------------ See also http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xinclude XInclude 2nd Edition is at: http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xinclude-20061115 ACTION to Daniel: Produce a PER-ready draft of XInclude 3rd Ed with appropriate references to the IRI RFC for LEIRIs. Associating Stylesheets ----------------------- See also http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#assoc-ss Associating stylesheets with XML version 1.0 is at: http://www.w3.org/1999/06/REC-xml-stylesheet-19990629/ The Errata document is at: http://www.w3.org/1999/06/REC-xml-stylesheet-19990629/errata Simon has requested we consider revisions; see his email at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Feb/0002 and his suggested draft at http://simon.html5.org/specs/xml-stylesheet5 See also Simon's email at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Feb/0014 outlining various issues. Paul sent email giving Arbortext's behavior and other comments at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Feb/0022 ACTION to Henry: Determine Saxon behavior in various erroneous cases and reply to Simon's email with results and suggested resolutions.
