13:57:14 TOPIC: CSS Namespace
13:57:42 SP: we asked for 3 things: drop it or deprecate it or point it out in the spec that this is a change in CSS and this is how you avoid problems;
13:58:11 SP: said will ignore comments -- replied to that: asked if refusing to merely pointing out in spec ok
13:58:29 SP: accept disapproval or get an answer, but if no, have to document before CR
13:59:09 SP: this has a 1 week heartbeat, so if they accept to point out in spc, we are ok; need to deciide what to do if don't accept any part of our comments?
13:59:22 SP: object or accept the fact they rejected our comments/suggestion
13:59:53 SP: don't think much to ask to ask them at the minimum to point out that this is a change in CSS; if don't should say not sufficient, as it is a change in CSS
13:59:59 RM: inclined to agree
14:00:32 SP: not much to ask -- don't have to change implementations -- is WG ok with us saying that the least we want them to do is point it out in spec?
14:01:04 RESOLVED: CSS NS must at least point out that there is change in CSS
14:01:15 TOPIC: XHTML M12n
14:01:51 SP: waiting on Shane to make a new iteration of draft; he's done that, so i'm emailing steve bratt and going throough points and pointing to new spec and asking if ok with transition
14:01:57 RM: just going through process
14:02:15 ACTION: StevenP - point SteveB to new wording in M12n
14:02:34 SP: "would you have a look at the new/latest version of the report"
14:02:46 http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/2008/xhtml-basic-11-implementation.html
14:03:12 SP: at bottom, there is a pointer to Yam's response and test report
14:03:46 [please stand by -- we are temporarily experiencing technical difficulties]
14:04:05 http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/2008/a-w3c-inputmode-test-report071130.pdf
14:04:19 SP: need to correct test report with above URI
14:05:03 SP: [fixed implementation report - can now get PDF report from draft]
14:05:11 MB: input mode?
14:06:09 SP: since rest has been implemented, only new item is input mode -- we had exchange with Steve Bratt to see if ok to have single implementation because is optional feature, and he said that was ok; have to organize another transition call with SteveB
14:06:23 RM: see if he's happy then schedule LC
14:06:33 SP: will take us to CR
14:06:53 ACTION SP: ensure SteveB ok with single implementation and get transition in progress
14:07:15 TOPIC: Mime Type
14:08:24 SP: Karl seems to think anything not absolutely valid and without application/xml mime-type is NOT xhtml -- that's only a single person's opinion
14:08:34 SP: DanC agrees with us but doesn't see the problem
14:08:59 SP: will discuss at this week's HTC call -- request discussion now or simply move ahead
14:09:39 RM: prepare materials to be published as part of the mime-types first draft; explain what we have done, what has changed, and what is purpose, can then bring up at HTC
14:10:05 SP: like fact that there are a lot of major web sites delivering xhtml as text/html -- proves can be done and that it works without doing any harm
14:10:57 RM: seen doctype "HTML Core" but use closing slashes -- real mixture both ways
14:11:09 SP: drop line to webmaster to change doctype
14:11:34 GJR: FYI: the "official" format of Open Accessibility (http://a11y.org) specs is XHTML 1.0 Strict
14:11:44 SP: Shane preparing new draft to take to HTC
14:11:56 RM: don't foresee any problem -- already allowed
14:12:12 TOPIC: CURIE Transition
14:12:31 RM: everything ready to go, but we don't have shane on call -- suggestions as to topics while we wait
14:12:48 SP: could briefly talk about TAG's opinion about mime-type when using RDFa
14:12:51 RM: pointer?
14:13:24 SP: comes under RDFa syntax; have action to let TAG know we disagree -- was drafting reply and realized we hadn't spoken with RDFa group, so i raised it at last week's meeting
14:13:32 http://www.w3.org/2008/03/20-rdfa-minutes.html
14:13:43 http://www.w3.org/2008/03/20-rdfa-minutes.html#item02
14:13:52 SP: self-describing web (item 2)
14:14:49 SP: BenA (chair of Task Force) asked if TAG wrong; Ralph abstained no one else agreeed; RDFa group almost unanimously agree with us that media type doesn't need to be updated to use RDFa data in HTML
14:14:54 RM: namespace?
14:15:11 +McCarron
14:15:23 SP: don't understand TAG point at all or what is foundation of belief -- hard to argue against updating media type
14:16:04 MB: TAG logic is that somebody should not be held accountable for statements made unless accountability indicator
14:16:19 SM: proposed wording towards end of last call
14:16:38 SP: norm walsh proposed wording or you (ShaneM) proposed wording
14:17:06 MB: NormW raised issues, ShaneM replied, and everything was ok -- Norm's was most vocal objection, and we have cleared it
14:17:10 SP: pointer?
14:17:33 SM: has an issue number in tracker (not at PC)
14:18:11 SM: suggested wording something like "conforming parsers MUST extract triples if present; authors who want to use triples should use proper methods" or words to that effect
14:18:21 RM: where can we find the exchange
14:18:29 SM: in the RDFa task force log somewhere
14:18:40 SP: NormW's emails all about missing @profile in test case
14:19:03 SM: origin of issue; DanC asked why test cases didn't all have @profile and then others asked why isn't that required
14:19:32 SP: quotes from NormW -- (pointer?)
14:19:59 SM: interesting that NW thinks we are changing the meaning of HTML; so does TBL -- don't think we have done that at all
14:20:02 SP: me neither
14:20:05 GJR: nor me
14:20:12 SP: next steps?
14:21:22 SP: if this is all result of a LC comment which has been disposed and the commentor has stated publically can live with WG's response, can we move forward -- TAG document only a WD, so can wait until before LC to comment upon that
14:21:34 SP: new doctype
14:21:48 SM: not new media type, but new doctype
14:21:55 RM: but have introduced new doctype for this
14:22:33 SP: want one to be able to ID documents that have RDFa in it; then TBL says doctypes are obsolete and advises us to remove DTD...
14:22:57 SP: but, having said that, have "version" attribute in XHTML -- is an announcement mechanism, so should point that out to TAG
14:23:23 SP: have we finalized format of "version" attribute -- struck me that one possible format is identify used in DOCTYPE --
14:23:29 SM: exactly what is in there now
14:23:40 SM: inconsistent with XHTML 1.0 and 1.1 and Basic
14:23:56 SM: use longer formal public identifier
14:24:03 SM: never investigated this
14:24:56 SP: issues about doctype -- doctype causes current browsers use DTD to switch to standards mode; nowadays have to do that to be in standards mode
14:25:13 -McCarron
14:25:23 SP: second if want character entities, HAVE to use doctypes -- if can't solve those issues, doctypes going to be around for a long time to come
14:25:36 + +1.763.767.aacc
14:25:38 RM: that's exactly what problem is
14:25:42 zakim, aacc is ShaneM
14:25:42 +ShaneM; got it
14:26:02 SP: TBL recently started talking down doctypes and i'm not sure why or why he cares
14:26:22 RM: not playing down doctypes per se, but stating no need for doctype
14:26:27 SP: shouldn't be a "must"
14:26:38 RM: just said "remove doctypes" from our specs, not the world
14:26:45 SM: i thought he said remove DTD
14:26:49 RM: what's the diff?
14:26:58 SM: DTD schema declaration
14:27:24 RM: remove doctype requirement, not forcing loading of DTD -- if want to validate, need to keep doctype
14:28:03 SM: reads from TBL -- besides, don't have "must" but "should"
14:28:16 RM: what ascpect of that do you disagree with -- insist on DTDs forever?
14:28:39 SM: M12n 1.1 has to have a DTD -- no other implementation technique; second need DTD to validate
14:28:43 SP: doesn't hurt anyone
14:29:15 SM: if want XHTML+RDFa to work in current browsers have to have announcement mechanism browsers understand, and that is doctype
14:29:42 RM: Shane saying we do need announcement mechanism
14:29:53 SM: for it to work in existing browsers
14:29:59 RM: how does that make a difference?
14:30:15 SP: doctype declaration mark is what browsers use to switch into standards mode
14:30:40 SM: want XHTML document to render properly
14:30:56 RM: standards mode about processing, not about processing xhtml
14:31:19 SM: consistent rendering comes from standards mode
14:31:34 RM: what has to do with RDFa?
14:31:53 SM: nothing -- require for consistency amongst the family -- has nothing to do with RDFa, but XHTML
14:31:59 RM: don't require in RDFa
14:32:11 SM: wg told me to make it a "should" a few months ago
14:32:29 RM: trying to understand what you think we need and why TBL doesn't understand what we need
14:33:34 SP: TBL wants markup that states "this document has RDFa in it" -- DTD not wanted because "old fashioned" -- our response is DTD not required, but is quite useful (for validation, for example) -- does no harm can leave out or include -- also method currently used as marker to declare RDFa
14:33:49 SP: if took away would have to invent another markup
14:33:58 SM: have "version" atttribute for that
14:35:30 SM: all that aside, issue of XHTML family docs and behavior when delivered as text/html -- another thread; note suggests that way to ensure document works consistently is to use DTD, follow appendix c (moving to doctype portion), -- if do that, should behave properly and render properly across UAs
14:35:59 SP: do we need to do anything with TAG right now -- this discussion has gone over to RDFa task force, and turned up there as LC comments; should leave issue there to be dealt with
14:36:21 RM: agree
14:36:46 scribe's note: SP's Action Item on RDFa comments disposed (being done by others)
14:37:00 TOPIC: CURIEs
14:37:19 SM: sent status - i think is ready to go, markB had a few comments
14:37:30 RM: ready to go to LC -- just needs transition request
14:37:38 SP: sent transition request last week --
14:37:49 SM: update working draft today
14:37:57 SP: who will send message?
14:38:19 ACTION Steven: send message about CURIEs transition
14:38:26 FYI - RDFa version attribute declaration is
14:38:31 RM: Role Module status?
14:38:37 RM: can we take to LC today?
14:38:58 SM: as far as i'm concerned ready to go last week -- question remaining relates to CURIEs
14:39:45 MB: discussions offlist about way CURIEs and Role interact -- my issue is don't think should insist that values that are non-prefixed are invalid; should let those who import role into host language should be allowed to do so
14:40:08 MB: 2 choices -- let docs go through or try and resolve on list so doesn't haunt us during LC
14:40:27 MB: as far as timing, LC comments can be incorporated easily, so shouldn't hold up progress of document
14:40:40 SP: idea of LC is that WG has dealt with all issues in its ken
14:40:46 SP: prefer to discuss on list
14:40:57 RM: values of role attribute fixed?
14:41:51 SM: concerns about CURIE draft or how Role uses it?
14:42:09 MB: minor change needs to be made to Role to use CURIEs
14:42:14 SM: thought resolved
14:42:26 RM: thought problem only with Role -- other problems?
14:42:36 http://htmlwg.mn.aptest.com/htmlwg/curie is the live editors draft
14:42:47 MB: i need to re-check, but need to allow un-prefixed values in CURIE spec
14:42:50 SM: we do that
14:42:59 curie := [ [ prefix ] ':' ] reference
14:43:27 MB: thought that had changed -- if i review after meeting with SM, can move forward on CURIEs and will raise Role issue on list as requested
14:43:56 RM: close CURIE today -- go to LC or not; role will take as long as takes to obtain agreement
14:44:24 RESOLVED: CURIEs issues closed - will move forward to LC
14:44:50 ACTION MarkB: once CURIE draft pushed, post to public-xhtml2 list on Role issues
14:45:20 MB: if WG happy with shane and me making changes will do; if not will raise 2 issues on list
14:45:43 s/on Role issues/on related Role issues
14:46:01 RM: hope to get Role resolved next week
