      [34] https://github.com/w3c/i18n-activity/issues/1879

    <gb> [35]Issue 1879 should default reset/submit button text and
    default summary text use node's language rather than being
    locale-specific? (by w3cbot) [pending] [tracker] [s:html]

      [35] https://github.com/w3c/i18n-activity/issues/1879

    addison: one interesting pending issue, above
    … on HTML
    … language of the document or locale

    <addison> [36]whatwg/html#10437

      [36] https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/10437

    <gb> [37]Issue 10437 should default reset/submit button text
    and default summary text use node's language rather than being
    locale-specific? (by dbaron) [topic: forms] [i18n-tracker]

      [37] https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/10437

    addison: long standing one, on document language and browser

    xfq: clreq discussed recently similar on date picker
    … use language of user agent instead of the page
    … This makes the internationalization state of this component
    independent of the internationalization state of the rest of
    the page.
    … it's kind of similar item

    addison: lots of controls are behaving as a part of content
    … and sometimes it looks something strange
    … whether to allow controls to have document language or set to
    locale of browser, is good question

    xfq: author should be able to express override

    addison: will chime in this

   Publish FPWD of various layout requirements

    <r12a> [38]https://www.w3.org/International/typography/
    gap-analysis/language-matrix.html

      [38] 
https://www.w3.org/International/typography/gap-analysis/language-matrix.html

    r12a: what I am doing, starting from language matrix, supposed
    to list from gap-analysis document
    … gap-analysis document changes over, and applied to matrix
    … in addison, also 4/5 left to do
    … for Latin, each of Latin languages are in separate
    gap-analysis document
    … like 20 document for Latin
    … not good for maintaining
    … tried to improve Latin document
    … contain all languages into one Latin gap-analysis document
    … items are labelled
    … gap-analysis and lreq documents are built from scripts for
    now
    … much easier for maintenance

    addison: can separate languages if we need?
    … just thinking around

    JcK: if it is one language to one script, its ok, but for
    language to multiple scripts, we need some

    r12a: see some examples, French, Dutch, has different columns
    … we can see issues per set of language or script
    … data is in github issue, with label, and can be selected per
    target

    [detail with arabic]

    r12a: for publication, not publish urdu one, putting into
    nastaliq group
    … Latin lreq and gap-analysis are for publication approval

    r12a: so, Latin lreq, Latin gap-analysis, hebrew gap-analysis
    … beng lreq
    … hebrew lreq

    <addison> proposed: publish as FPWD hebrew, latin, bengali,
    devanagari lreq and latin gap

    r12a: devanagari lreq

    <addison> +1

    <Bert> +1

    +1

    <xfq> +1

    <r12a> +1

    <JcK> +0.5

    RESOLUTION: publish Latn, Hebr, Beng, Deva LREQ and Latn gap
    analysis as FPWD

    r12a: nastalq?

    addison: arabic as parent and others as children are some
    complex

    addison: how do you do if these are not separated

    r12a: multiple lines in arabic part, columns will have
    different like for nastaliq

    <Bert> (All the links in the matrix in the Arab section
    currently link to cher-gap.)

   Normativity of i18n-glossary (redux)

    addison: one issue filed to i18n-glossary for normative citing
    … use glossary entry as term definition in normative part
    … glossary already have a note on this, don't cite in
    normative, but copy text
    … or refer Unicode or else
    … i18n-glossary have composed list from various places
    … reconsider these requests, and make some sort of rec-track or
    not, with evergreen CRS or something

    addison: sometimes just tell them to copy

    addison: want to say, document is not in rec-track, and cannot
    define normative term. if you want to define normativelly, do
    it yourself

    [chat about normative/rec-track]

    xfq: referncing non-normative text in normative part is not
    prohibited?

   String-Meta: BPs for Consumers
