Francois: There was a discussion on the i18n-comments list

<scribe> ACTION: Felix to implement discussion results from the i18n-comments list [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/05/09-i18ncore-minutes.html#action11]
Richard: one idea: have a separte section for the discussion of "language versus locale"?
... because that
is what people confuses a lot
Felix: good idea
Richard: section 4, where you have the requirements: maybe separate sections for language and locale?
Francois: maybe that is too much
Felix: currently it is very similar to the resid draft, where you have a section similar to sec. 4
Richard: would you leave it like that?
Felix: yes
Richard: 4, point "4" could have a termref
Felix: good point
Francois: I would like a bit more explanatory stuff here
... for example the definition of a basic language
range etc.
... at least an example
Felix: good point
Richard: two aspects of the document: make it "normativly clear", and make it understandable
... you need to
have a balance between the two
<scribe> ACTION: Felix to create examples for defined terms (like "language range") [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/05/09-i18ncore-minutes.html#action12]
Felix: a general question: The editor's copy is already heavenly changed
... should we republish?
Richard: If people reading the published version very often, you should republish, otherwise, you don't need to
Francois: We should favor frequent publishing
Richard: You don't want to publish s.t. if you are not confident about changes

Francois: technically, the identifiers have no impact at all
... giving a name to them has no impact on
anything
... what we do
... it is more a human, than a technical thing
Francois and Mary already left the call, but Vijay, Karunesh, Richard and Felix discussed this topic
<karunesh> Felix: can you stay for a minute after meeting
<karunesh> Felix are you there
Hi Karunesh
<karunesh> yes can we talk on the phone
Sure, I'll dial in again
Karunesh: Regarding the discussion on first letter styling for Indian languages:
... for Hindi and Dev. we
discussed whether it should be graphemes or syllable
... maybe it would be more appropriate for the grapheme cluster
... for other
languages, we are contacting other specialists
... we are waiting for their feedback
Richard: great
... if you could send the conclusion via mail, to www-international@w3.org
... I saw a
mail from Goutam who also talked about this
Karunesh: I'll also get feedback for other languages
Richard: Goutam sent a mail about it this afternoon
Vijay: we would like to help and give more feedback
Richard: great
