Liam reports that the review should go to W3M next Wednesday.
It turned out we got more reviews toward the end of the
review period.

Liam should know more by our next telcon.

There were some comments about modifications to the charter.
We will hear more about that later.


TPAC 2013 11-15 November in Shenzhen, China
-------------------------------------------
Norm hopes to be there, Liam expects to, DV may be there,
but we do not believe it makes sense to plan an official
f2f at the 2013 TPAC.  Paul will fill out the questionnaire
accordingly.

> xmlspec.xsl and diffspec.xsl
> ----------------------------
> Paul sent email about this at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2012Nov/0014

> Henry reported that DOM4 has removed (or deprecated) access to the
> XML Declaration. Our Infoset spec says that standalone, version,
> and the encoding are part of the information content of an XML
> document.

> Henry and Paul think the XML Core WG should send an email
> to the Web Applications Working Group (public-webapps@w3.org)
> to reinstate the parts of the xml decl that are in the Infoset.
>
> Henry drafted a potential comment at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2013Feb/0023
>
> John filed some thoughts to the contrary at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2013Feb/0026
>
> Henry figures we should discuss this some more.
> Norm is having a hard time caring about all this.
>
> Henry reached out to the webapps working group at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2013Apr/0009
> to try to collect some more data on this issue.

We discussed this briefly.  Not sure we can do anything
about this at this time.  We also don't expect any such
change to occur too soon.
