XML Core WG Status and Open Actions as of 2010 June 21

The XML Core WG telcons are every other week.

Our next telcon will be 2010 June 28.


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

TAG concern wrt 3023bis, +xml media types and fragids
-----------------------------------------------------
Henry sent email about this at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2010Jun/0006

3023bis says that the +xml implies that the resource is suitable for 
processing by generic xml processors.  And it says that such xml
processors should handle fragment ids.  Specifically, handling the
fragment identifiers in an rdf+xml document is not something that a 
generic xml processor could do.

The TAG was leaning toward removing the statement from 3023bis that
says that fragid syntax and semantics is something that any generic
xml processor can handle in a +xml resource.

ACTION to Henry:  Point us to the TAG f2f notes with more details of 
the "3023bis, +xml media types and fragids" discussion.


LEIRI
-----
See
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2010Mar/0045
from Dan Connolly which references
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2010Mar/0037

At (among other places)
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2010May/0001
Larry Masinter explains the plan, to wit:

 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-iri-3987bis-00#section-1.3
 contains a definition in section 1.3 on "LEIRI proessing" which 
 should in fact be a definition of LEIRI:

  LEIRI:  This term was used in various XML specifications to
      refer to strings that, although not valid IRIs, were
      acceptable input to the processing rules in Section 7.1.

 where Section 7.1 of the same document is intended to contain an
 algorithm that will convert an LEIRI to an IRI.

 If that's adequate for XML Core to change its reference for LEIRI,
 fine, and if you need more, please say so.

A direct reference to Section 7.1 is
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-iri-3987bis-00#section-7.1

ACTION to Henry, Mohamed:  Review the definition and discussion
of LEIRIs in http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-iri-3987bis-00
and let the WG know if this would allow us to replace our LEIRI
Note with a reference to this spec.
