[blasum@muc.de: Minor comments on CCPP-vocab]

Hi Kazuhiro,

on Fri I posted this to the www-mobile@w3.org mailing list. Not sure
if it got through (I have to confess that I had not subscribed the
list by then) but I cannot see it in the archive at
http://www.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-mobile/2001Mar/0001.html. Or does it have
to be moderated ?

Regards, Holger

Some comments on http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/WD-CCPP-struct-vocab-20010315/

- Section 2.1.3 Defaults, Figure 2-3b: CC/PP profile using defaults in XML
[see also Aaron Swartz]

To which default namespace does the "display" Attribute belong ? Is it
intentional that no default namespace had been declared ? If so, why ?
(Note: In the corresponding figure 3-4a (Section 3.1.3 Defaults) these
Attributes belong the the xmlns prf="http://www.wapforum.org/UAPROF/ccppschema-
20000405#")

- Appendix C, second paragraph

"The client attribute names defined below may be used to identify some
common feature associated with client devices that print or display visual
information, such as text or graphics". Does "common features" refer to
hardware, operating system or the browser (e.g. pix-x could refer to the
browser that has less pixels than the display)? With regard to demand D.3.2.
that an "attribute name must be unique in a profile" such unclearness
gives unsure feelings.

Also in Appendix C, is "charHeight" really the
"number of lines of text" that can be displayed ?

As far as I understand App C (from the "subliminal feeling") the WG still wants
to honor the former IETF-CONNEG work, but does not really encourage one
to use it...

Sincere regards,
