XML Core WG Status and Open Actions as of 2010 September 13

The XML Core WG telcons are every other week.

Our next telcon will be 2010 September 22.


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.

Norm and John (among others) weighed in; see the thread at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2010Jun/thread.html#msg125
Norm's latest (as of July 18) is at

Jirka indicated the completion of a successful SC34 ballot of
XML Model.  The ISO process continues, but looks promising.

We will plan to update our WG Note to reference the ISO spec
once it is officially available.
