We had a fairly confused and confusing, unsuccessful transition call last week for AssocSS. The minutes are team-confidential, but Liam's summary is: The XML Core WG needs to draft a note, non-normative text, to be added to the definition of media, explaining that in the absence of a media attribute, the behaviour is implementation-dependent, and warning people about interoperability issues in that case. I'm not sure where to go from here on this, but my best suggestion is to draft a Note to add to the discussion of the media pseudo-attribute that points out that the meaning of an omitted media attribute is--like everything else with the meaning of all pseudo-attributes, as we've already said in the Note currently in section 2--application (not implementation) dependent, and I'm not sure I agree this implies interoperability issues beyond anything else in this spec, so I don't feel we need a separate explicit warning about that here. I do not quite understand the next steps--perhaps Liam can elaborate. I think we suggest wording for an additional note, and then I think we're supposed to ask Daniel G for his acceptance (I don't see why he would give it after his previous comments, but who know), and then I guess we let Liam discuss it with TimBL and the rest of W3M and figure out what happens next. At this point, I feel I should be suggesting wording so that we can make some progress in email, but I'm just in no mood to do so--I'm hoping perhaps someone else will. If not, perhaps I'll give it an attempt later this week. paul
