Please also review our group page's task list [2] for accuracy and completeness and be prepared to amend if necessary and accept it at the beginning of the call. Agenda ====== 1. Accepting the minutes from the last telcon [3] and the current task status [2] (have any questions, comments, or corrections ready by the beginning of the call). 2. Miscellaneous administrivia and document reviews. TPAC 26-30 October 2015 in Sapporo, Japan ----------------------------------------- See http://www.w3.org/2015/11/TPAC/ Any chance there will be enough people attending to hold a WG meeting? XML Potential Errata -------------------- Comment that “or by the Byte Order Mark” is lacking in section 4.3.3: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-editor/2013OctDec/0002 Comment that an entity cannot “begin” with a BOM as suggested in section 4.3.3: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-editor/2013OctDec/0003 ACTION to John and Henry: Review and comment on the above two comments on the discussion of BOMs in section 4.3.3 of the XML spec. ---- Comment about documents with an "empty DTD": http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2014Jan/thread#msg8 and http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-editor/2014JanMar/ Henry suggests we could probably make the XML spec clearer here; see also his comments at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-editor/2014JanMar/0004 Paul sent the WG response at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-editor/2014JanMar/0005 and there was more back from the commentor at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-editor/2014JanMar/ Henry referenced Paul's email at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-editor/2014JanMar/0010 especially Paul's suggestion in point 4, though Henry wasn't sure he agreed with the suggestion. ACTION to Henry: Post some suggestion(s) to the list about how to address: Comment about documents with an "empty DTD". ---- Question about normalization checking in XML 1.1 ------------------------------------------------ John Cowan forwarded an email for us to consider at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2014Dec/0026 which I've also forwarded to the xml-editor list at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-editor/2014OctDec/0000 for official/archive purposes. Paul wrote some comments in email at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2014Dec/0028 Henry checked with Richard who agrees it's a bug, though how to fix it isn't obvious. Probably the only candidates for not being normalized are (internal and external) doctypes per email at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2015Jan/0004 ACTION to Norm and Henry: Review the email about normalization checking in XML 1.1 and suggest an appropriate corrigendum. ---- Potential Erratum to Namespaces ------------------------------- CMSMcQ raised a potential erratum against Namespaces at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-names-editor/2014Sep/0000 with WG discussion started at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2014Sep/0019 He says that our latest wording in the definition of 'namespace name' (section 2.1) appears to say that an element with no namespace binding in scope is in no namespace as opposed to saying its namespace is unknown (thereby leaving the possibility that its namespace information may be determined by some other methods). Norm, Paul, and Henry posted some thoughts on this, and none of us feel that the current wording is necessarily bad enough to be worth any change. In particular, Norm doesn't agree with what Michael thinks should be the case. Henry points out that HTML5 does "make use of" defining namespaces without the namespace spec mechanism. Henry had some more (private) exchanges with Michael, and Henry will summarize the discussion for the WG. ACTION to Henry: Summarize and provide current status of the discussion of this namespace potential erratum. 3. Submitting XML Schema 1.1 to ISO See also https://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xml-schema We have decided we will first publish XML Schema 1.1 2E (with approved errata). After that, we would send XML Schema 1.1 2E (only) to ISO. Loren has offered to do the editorial duties, and David talked to CMSMCQ about getting some more help in the details. It looks like there are 3 bugs for Structures, none for Datatypes, but after checking with Michael, he found https://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2004/06/xmlschema-1/structures.errata-2012.html which shows 8 errata items whereas bugzilla shows only 3. We discussed https://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2004/06/xmlschema-1/structures.errata-2012.html Henry figures we can just publish this document. Loren believes the latest document includes everything, so the next step is to push it through the tool chain. We will need a diff (or list of changes). Loren says the diff is already available. We needed to consider whether any of the changes are normative and/or require a change to the test suite. After some discussion, we decided we should just create a PER. ACTION to Loren: Create the PER, i.e., XML Schema 1.1 Second Edition, and post (e.g., at http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2014/12/xschema11.html) for the WG to review (talk to Paul if you need help so posting). 4. XML Test Suite. See also http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xml-test-suite 5. LEIRIs--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#leiri We have planned to issue the following spec editions referencing LEIRIs (and any outstanding errata): * XML 1.0 6th Edition (John to be editor) * XML 1.1 3rd Edition (John to be editor) * XInclude 3rd Edition (Paul to be editor) but all this is on hold awaiting resolution of IRIbis. 6. XInclude 1.1--see http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#xinclude On 2012 February 14, we published XInclude 1.1 Requirement and Use Cases http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude-11-requirements/ On 9 October 2012, we published our FPWD of XInclude 1.1 at http://www.w3.org/XML/2012/10/WD-xinclude-11-20121009/ On 15 January 2013, we published our (first) Last Call of XInclude 1.1 at http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-xinclude-11-20130115/ and Paul sent the transition announcement at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2013Jan/0012 (also cc-ing the chairs mailing list). On 2013 October 8, we published the XInclude 1.1 CR at http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/CR-xinclude-11-20131008/ Norm reports that Michael Kay's code just accesses Xerces code, so Norm might have to work with Xerces. DV reports that he is busy and so cannot commit to a deadline for adding XInclude 1.1 support to libxml. ACTION to Norm: Continue to work toward getting XInclude 1.1 implementations and document them in our implementation report. Note also the desire for another test case for the XInclude test suite per http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2014Apr/0000 Norm may see if he knows anyone still working on Xerces. Norm is planning to write a SAX filter to implement XInclude 1.1. He believes this will lead to a way for using XInclude 1.1 with Saxon's XSLT processor and most any other Java based tool. Jirka has implemented a subset of an XInclude processor in XSLT; it deals mainly with the new copy-attributes feature. We have published (another) Last Call 2014 December 16 at http://www.w3.org/TR/2014/WD-xinclude-11-20141216/ The Last Call period ended January 17. There were no comments. On the Feb 4 telcon, the WG had CONSENSUS to take XInclude 1.1 to CR. Paul drafted a Transition Request (including SOTD wording) at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2015Feb/0010 Liam said Paul should send it to Ralph and PLH (not Philipp Hoschka). Liam said we might not need a telcon. Norm announces that he has one conforming implementation, the one in XML Calabash, and he is working on another. Norm is trying to get Elliotte Rusty Harold's Sax filter that does XInclude, and he would like to get that updated to support XInclude 1.1. ACTION to Norm: Update the implementation report and test suite. ACTION to Norm: Create the pub-ready CR taking into account the wording/URLs in Paul's draft Transition Request (but make the proposed pubdate [and corresponding URLs] some reasonable future date). 7. MicroXML MicroXML is not in our new charter, but we can discuss it. We will leave this as an ongoing item in our standing agenda. paul [1] http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core [2] http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#tasks [3] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2014Nov/0027
