discussions on Scoping

http://esw.w3.org/topic/its0509SpecScoping

YS: I thougth it was well done
... we get a better idea of how it will work
... I had some comments, but you answered that in a mail
... CL had some comments as well

CL: I saw one of my comments generated some questions
... this summary indicates the progress we are making
... in a comment, I had a reference to xsl-fo
... I meant that computation of scoping is s.t. different
... xsl has s.t. explicit how a value should be computed

a maybe useful xml schema data type:

<xs:simpleType name="scopeInline">

<xs:restriction base="xs:string">

<xs:pattern value="

(child::.+)|

(descendant::.+)|

(descendant-or-self::.+)|

(\.//.+)|

(attribute::/.+)|

(@.+)|

(name\(\)=.+)"/>

</xs:restriction>

</xs:simpleType>

<GoutamSaha> Hi everybody

SR: this might be an unhealthy route to go

SR: some users might have other use cases

AZ: there is an error in the attribute ??? in the WD, I will fix that

SR: if you want to check the XPath
... you could also use schematron, and go down the NDVL route
... maybe your example is a better example in the non-normative part of the spec

FS: that is a good idea
... "Summary of the scope requirement" is what we are talking about

YS: our solution would be translate "yes" or "no"
... all the examples we used so far are a single set of values
... but we have not touched the case of constraints

FS: we could express that with the XLink way, using attributes

YS: as for ruby, we don't define ruby ourselves
... why not defining an enclosing ruby tag?

FS: this is because of text in attributes
... but if this solution does not work, people who read the wd will tell us

<scribe> ACTION: FS to produce an odd for the scoping element, with the complete structure of the wd [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/10/19-i18n-minutes.html#action07]

SR: one point is whether you want to mandate XPath 2.0?

FS: sorry, XPath 1.0 is feasible as well

change the requirement document

YS: FS had the concern to discuss solution in the req document

FS: this is my mail: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/member-i18n-its/2005OctDec/0037.html
... I can do the changes in the req document fast

YS: I can try to help you with that fast, but I will be gone most of next week and the end of this week
... let's talk about that offline

Note on extensibility

YS: we agreed that extensibility should not be tackeled right now, and that we would put that into the wd

<scribe> ACTION: FS to put as many as possible requirements into the tag set working draft [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/10/19-i18n-minutes.html#action08]

YS: other comments on this topic?

about definitions

YS: we had some feedback, but we did not follow up with that very well
... about i18n, l10n, and so on.
... we had some comments from Mark Davis and Adisson Phillips
... is there s.t. we could use in our documents?

<YvesS> http://esw.w3.org/topic/its0504ReqKeyDefinitions

FS: currently discussed between the WGs, but no solution so far

YS: do we have to refer to the req document from the spec document?

FS: might be useful, but is not mandatory

other business

YS: the f2f meeting, is the 6-7-8 of December

<YvesS> http://esw.w3.org/topic/its0504ReqKeyDefinitions

YS: will be somewhere near Oxford

logistics page: http://www.w3.org/International/its/ftf-200512-Didcot.html

YS: we have to check hotels
... The Upper Reaches, Abingdon
... that is our first choice, cf. http://www.superbreak.com/home.cfm?GroupID=4003&content=hotel
... lunch is not provided
... we need the list of people who will come
... I'll try to start an agenda soon
... any other business?
