Dear www-tag, This is a summary of the TAG's activity from 7 August 2002 (end date of the previous summary [1]) to 3 Sep 2002. The TAG had four teleconferences during this period; summaries of those meetings are linked from the TAG home page [2]. During the current period, the TAG has primarily: 1) Architecture Document. The TAG published the first public Working Draft of "Architectural Principles of the World Wide Web." The 30 August 2002 draft is available at: http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-webarch-20020830/ ----------------------------------------------- Abstract The World Wide Web is a networked information system. Web Architecture is the set of principles that all agents in the system follow to create the large-scale effect of a shared information space. Identification, data formats, and protocols are the main technical components of Web Architecture, but the large-scale effect depends on social behavior as well. This document strives to establish a reference set of principles for Web architecture. ----------------------------------------------- The TAG did not publish any findings during this period. 2) Discussed the following issues in substance: - uriMediaType-9 Why does the Web use mime types and not URIs? - RFC3023Charset-21: Do all "shoulds" of RFC 3023, 7.1 apply? - xlinkScope-23: What is the scope of using XLink? - deepLinking-25: What to say in defense of principle that deep linking is not an illegal act? Details about discussions and related actions are available in the meeting minutes linked from the TAG's home page. The TAG's issues list is available at: http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/ilist 3) Accepted the following new issues: - contentPresentation-26 : Separation of semantic and presentational markup, to the extent possible, is architecturally sound. http://www.w3.org/2002/08/26-tag-summary#contentPresentation-26 4) Reached a decision on the following issues: - augmentedInfoset-22: Infoset augmentation outside of PSVI? http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/ilist#augmentedInfoset-22 For now, the TAG has decided this issue by withdrawing it. The TAG may reopen this issue depending on the direction of work on xml query.
