Minutes of XML Query/XSL WG Joint Teleconference #648, 2016-06-28

Please find the minutes between the lines of the agenda.

NOTE 1: I have taken the liberty of marking the result of the discussion on whitespace in BracedURILiteral as a "decision" and to mark it a resolution of Bug 29708 (which we couldn't access during the call), which hopefully also resolves the omission of such decision in the earlier minutes of F2F in Prague in 2012, kindly researched and referenced by Michael Dyck in a follow-up mail after the telcon.  See also my NOTE in the minutes below.

NOTE 2: I did not record an action item for dealing with Benito's mail (nr 16 in June's archive), see minutes below.

Summary of new actions:
ACTION- A-648-01: in the Serialization XSD, fix the whitespace and make it MSXML4 compatible and fix any other issues that were raised in that thread (see https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xsl-query/2016Jun/0078.html)
ACTION-A-648-02: O'Neil to generate a test report running only XQ31 and XP31 tests and to report internally before publishing

Summary of decisions:
DECISION: (bug 29708) no change to the production(s) or text of BracedURILiteral or EQName w.r.t. whitespace handling
DECISION: (A-641-14) To use "the associated expression", without specifying what an "associated expression" is related to, as explained in the mail from Michael Dyck here: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xsl-query/2016Jun/0072.html

> SUMMARY OF DECISIONS
> ====================
> Note to secretary: Please insert a summary of all decisions made during
> this teleconference at this location in the minutes.
> 
> Decisions MUST be clear as to their complete intent.  The subject of the
> decision should *not* require dereferencing; it is most helpful if
> agenda numbers and bug numbers are accompanied by their titles.  If a
> decision is recorded about the resolution of a bug, the decision must
> state exactly what the resolution is (e.g., "Accept the solution in
> comment #5", or "Replace the production for XXX with this: <new
> production>", or the like.  It should be possible to read a decision
> months later and be certain what it meant and whether or not it was
> properly applied.
> 
> 
> NEW ACTION ITEMS
> ================
> Note to secretary: Please insert all new action items assigned during
> this teleconference at this location in the minutes.
> 
> Action items MUST make sense even when they are viewed standalone (that
> is, not read in the context of the agenda item where they were
> assigned).  This explicitly requires that all referents (e.g., "this",
> "that") be made clear.  Action items such as "Ralph to resolve this
> problem" are DISALLOWED.  It takes a scribe only a few additional
> minutes to ensure that action items are clear, while it takes the entire
> WG considerable effort to constantly research the meaning of unclear
> action items.  The subject of the action item should *not* require
> dereferencing; it is most helpful if agenda numbers and bug numbers are
> accompanied by their titles.

At the end of the meeting, Andy asked who would be joining next week's meeting (#649, 2016-06-05). 
Jonathan Robie said he would probably not be able to attend as it is the day after July 4th celebrations.

The meeting next week will take place as planned.

NOTE FROM SCRIBE: new agenda item J4.3.4.

J4.3.4 (A-645-07) Discuss the proposed fix  for the Serialization XSD and follow-up discussion on proposed changes

We briefly discussed the summary of the (long) discussion thread, published by ABr here:

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xsl-query/2016Jun/0078.html

MSM: asks the WG whether it was a "slip" to allow spaces in the BracedURILiteral
MD writes in IRC that he thinks it was a conscious decision at the time
ABr mentions that he doesn't like the current whitespace rule but also doesn't see a strong case to change it, esp. in light of 3.0 backwards compatibility

NOTE FROM SCRIBE: after the meeting, Michael Dyck summarized that indeed minutes (of F2F Prague, https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xsl-query/2012Feb/0023.html)  show that whitespace was discussed, however, neither those minutes, nor the following offline discussion recorded a formal decision on the matter. See https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xsl-query/2016Jun/0085.html

The WG reached consensus that the whitespace rules should not change.

DECISION: (bug 29708) no change to the production(s) or text of BracedURILiteral or EQName w.r.t. whitespace handling

ACTION- A-648-01: in the Serialization XSD, fix the whitespace and make it MSXML4 compatible and fix any other issues that were raised in that thread (see https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xsl-query/2016Jun/0078.html)

> Status: Currently three implementers submitted results

Current results can be found: https://dev.w3.org/2011/QT3-test-suite/ReportingResults31/

AC explains that we need more tests to be able to progress to PR soon and we need to address the "red" parts
AC asks if other implementers can send in results

JR can submit updated results
ABr can submit new results, but states XP31 does currently not have his focus

AC suggests to exclude tests that do not belong exclusively in  the XP31 realm, in other words, remove XP30 and before tests
AC: reasoning, because static-typing is not supported by XP31 processors, but implementability has already been proven, and because nothing changed in this respect, we could limit the tests to only those that work with XP31. 

MK argues that the static-typing feature is in essence a relic from the past that is now an optional feature. Since nothing changed here, it is ok to leave it out of the report.

ACTION-A-648-02: O'Neil to generate a test report running only XQ31 and XP31 tests and to report internally before publishing

New agenda items, per being incapable of accessing BugZilla, we decided to discuss the following:

Q2.3.1 Discussion A-641-14
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xsl-query/2016Jun/0010.html

JR explained the following productions:
[128]    PostfixExpr    ::=    PrimaryExpr (Predicate | ArgumentList | Lookup)*
[131]    Predicate    ::=    "[" Expr "]"

JR argues that we don't have the relation of base expression vs subexpression. The question so rises, what is an "associated" expression if we do not have such association
MD comments that expressions more or less have a sibling relationship, not a parent-child relationship
JR suggests to use "enclosed expr" but retracts, as it is not "enclosed"

The discussion on finding the right terminology to use here went on a while between MD an JR

Decision:
To use "the associated expression", without specifying what an "associated expression" is related to, as explained in the mail from MD here: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xsl-query/2016Jun/0072.html

No new action item, done in situ by Jonathan Robie.

ABr asked whether someone could respond to the mail from Benito van der Zander (https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xsl-query/2016Jun/0016.html). Benito requests in that mail whether he can send in XPath 2.0 and/or XPath 3.0 results still and whether they would be published, 

The WG briefly discussed the possibility of re-publishing a report with added results from Benito and/or also Exselt (Abel Braaksma's processor). 
Some members expressed concern that some tests on XP30 have since been updated or added, leading to differences in reports compared to the current reports.

O'Neil explained that a ZIP version of the CVS repo of that time is available as a snapshot, this would allow vendors to send in reports using the exact same test set as was used for generating the XP30/XQ30 reports.

No decision was made, to be postponed to a later date.


Andy said he would need to take a look at that mail for possible later discussion and/or to answer Benito.
