TPAC week
---------
TPAC will be 31 October through 4 November 2011 in Santa Clara
California.  I think we should plan to have a f2f during this
week: http://www.w3.org/2011/11/TPAC/ - Meeting Overview page.

Likely attendance:

Probably will:  Paul, Norm, Henry, Laim
Maybe:  Mohamed
Most likely won't:  John, Daniel, Jirka, Glenn


Name-escaping spec
------------------
Henry sent email at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2011Mar/0018
asking if we should consider producing a WG Note recommending 
an escaping scheme for turning (mostly) arbitrary strings into
XML names as a Best Practice.


XML Security specs
------------------
The XML Security WG has asked the XML Core WG to review its
upcoming specs as referenced below, especially:

Canonical XML Version 2.0,
http://www.w3.org/2008/xmlsec/Drafts/c14n-20/

XML Signature Syntax and Processing Version 2.0,
http://www.w3.org/2008/xmlsec/Drafts/xmldsig-core-20/

ACTION to Jirka, Norm:  Review the XML Security specs.


3.  XML 1.0--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xml-errata

We are creating an XML 1.0 6th Edition and XML 1.1 3rd (or
perhaps 6th) Edition.

ACTION to John:  Update the XML sources for XML 1.0 and 1.1
to reflect any errata and the LEIRI reference.


4.  XML Test Suite.

See also http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xml-test-suite

ACTION to Henry:  Construct a test case for the XML test suite 
issues raised by Frans Englich:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-testsuite/2007Mar/ 


5.  Namespaces in XML 1.0/1.1--see
   http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#ns1.0
   and http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#ns1.1.


6.  LEIRIs--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#leiri

We had planned to issue the following spec editions referencing LEIRIs:

* XML 1.0 6th Edition
* XML 1.1 3rd Edition
* XInclude 3rd Edition

John wonders if we should call the next edition of XML 1.1 
the 6th Edition to match the XML 1.0 spec.  (No decision yet.)

We decided not to touch XLink 1.0.  XLink 1.1 is already leirified.

John will update the XML sources for XML 1.0 and 1.1.

Paul will update the Xinclude source.

Paul, Norm, and Liam are responsible for dealing with pubrules
and other administrivia.

Our LEIRI WG Note says:

 When [IRIbis is published as an RFC], this specification will be
 re-issued to reference it in place of the extracts given below.

We are concerned that the XML specs would be normatively referencing
an RFC through a (non-normative) WG Note, so we're not sure what we
want to do here.

Furthermore, IRIBis is not moving to RFC quickly.  So we're not
sure what we should do about issuing new editions.

Recent email from Larry Masinter (one of the authors of IRIbis) at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2011Mar/0022
doesn't give a time line for IRIBis at this point.

ACTION to Henry:  Ping Larry Masinter (one of the authors of
IRIbis) for the latest on the IRIbis schedule.


7.  xml:id--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xml-id


8.  XML Base 2nd Ed--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xml-base


9.  XLink 1.1--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xlink1.1


10.  XInclude 3rd Ed--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xinclude

We are creating an XInclude 3rd Edition.

ACTION to Paul:  Update the XML sources for Xinclude to reflect 
any errata and the LEIRI reference.


11.  Associating Stylesheets.

See also http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#assoc-ss

AssocSS 2nd Ed is now a Recommendation at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/REC-xml-stylesheet-20101028/

ACTION to Henry: Update the Errata document at
http://www.w3.org/1999/06/REC-xml-stylesheet-19990629/errata


12.  xml-model

See also http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#assoc-schemas

This has been published as a WG Note at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/NOTE-xml-model-20100415/

The ISO ballet has ended.  Some of the comments led us to 
tweak our Note.

Paul prepared an updated draft of the WG Note at
http://www.w3.org/XML/2011/04/xml-model/xml-model-diff.htm

ACTION to John:  Review the latest xml-model spec at
http://www.w3.org/XML/2011/04/xml-model/xml-model-diff.htm

Jirka will present our disposition of comments to ISO and 
find out whether they need to do another ballot or not.

ACTION to Jirka:  Find out what the next steps will be
for ISO's progression of the XML Model spec.

Jirka, Norm suggest we wait a month or two to see if we need 
to do anything else before we publish it as a new edition.

John suggests we publish it now.  Paul isn't sure.

ACTION to Paul:  Consider publishing a new edition of
our xml-model WG Note (probably no earlier than the 
May 10 timeframe).
