XML Core WG Status and Open Actions as of 2010 December 28

The XML Core WG telcons are every other week.

However, we have cancelled the telcon of Dec 29.

Our next telcon will be 2011 January 12.  


Status and open actions
=======================

Administrivia
-------------
We need to consider what we want for our charter for 2011
and 2012.  Liam has drafted one at
http://www.w3.org/XML/2010/10/xml-core-charter.html

Mohamed has suggested that XML Performance could become in the
scope of XML Core.  He also sent email at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2010Nov/0012
and follow-up at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2010Dec/0001

John has requested that we add language such as "consider the
development of a standardized subset of XML for use cases where 
full XML is inappropriate" so that we can do something like MicroXML.


Micro XML or reconciling XML and HTML
-------------------------------------
John raised a discussion of James Clark's micro XML:
http://blog.jclark.com/2010/12/microxml.html

Norm is chairing the HTML/XML Task Force tasked to look into 
"reconciling XML and HTML".   The mailing list is
public-html-xml@w3.org archived at 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-xml/


XPointer registry and the xpath() scheme
----------------------------------------
Norm sent email requesting re-instatement of the xpath() scheme at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xpointer-registry/2010OctDec/
0002

The email list to track discussions about this registry is
public-xpointer-registry@w3.org archived at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xpointer-registry/

Liam plans to process something here soon.


XML Processor Profiles review
-----------------------------
We have been asked to review the XML Processing Model WG's
Last Call Working Draft of "XML processor profiles" at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/WD-xml-proc-profiles-20101130/

Glenn wanted to see some rationale/use case for moving from
one profile to the next.

ACTION to Glenn:  Send your request for rationales to the
xproc comments list: public-xml-processing-model-comments@w3.org

John is happy with the document as it stands.
