TPAC

Roland: Is there a registration page?

Steven: Yes, see http://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35125/TPAC2008/

Alessio: I am planning to come

<Tina> I am integrating her comments in the article - tho not as we speak.

Tina's Primer

http://www.dev-archive.net/articles/xhtml.html

Roland: I see Christina has sent a review

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xhtml2/2008Sep/0013.html

Steven: I have some comments

Tina: It was good. Mostly linguistic changes from Christina.

Steven: Domain experts

Tina: I will be rewriting that

Steven: CSS instead of RDF

Tina: Knowledge of semantics allows the browser to take the realities of the user into account

Roland: Who is the reader?

Tine: Good point. I shall add that at the beginning

Steven: Prudction vs consumption
... Using media type to get it into the browser

<scribe> ACTION: Steven to send examples of media type heuristics to Tina [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/09/17-xhtml-minutes.html#action01]

Roland: Anything else?

Tina: No that's good.
... Please send me email comments if you have them.

M12N status

Steven: W3C is fully involved with the W3F last week; I expect we can have a call when the dust settles

Events

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xhtml2/2008Aug/0035

Roland: I remember talking about this in venice

Steven: Isn't the problem with name clashes with Common attributes?

Roland: Yes
... @ raise instead of @event

Steven: @event is a common attribute, should we incorporate XML Events into XHTML2
... if we decide to use XML Even6ts without namespace prefixes, then no element may have an attribute called event

Roland: I don't think it is generally true that @raise would suggest exceptions rather than events
... I don't think we can do much about this one

Steven: We could ask for more suggestions

<alessio> agree

Roland: @destid rather than @target

Steven: Again @target is taken as a Common attribute

Roland: What does it do?

Steven: It says you are only interested in events that have been targetted to that element

http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/2008/ED-xml-events-20080625/

Steven: Oh it's changed

@destid is now @to

scribe: so that one is solved

Roland: And what happened to the action element
... still @targetid

Steven: @target is used for @href

Roland: addEventListener has an attribute called taget?

Steven: No, an attrivute that has target as a value

Roland: Where is @target defined

Steven: http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/2008/ED-xhtml-modularization-20080813/abstract_modules.html#s_targetmodule

Steven: In M12N 1.1 it is a module that ads @target to several places

Roland: Frames?

Steven: Well, 'environment'; see XHTML Basic 1.1

"The target attribute is designed to be a general hook for binding to an external environment (such as Frames, multiple windows, browser-tabbed windows); when there is no such external environment bound to the user agent, the user agent can ignore the target attribute. When there is an external environment bound, the conformance requirements for the target attribute are defined in each environment."

Steven: M12N should say that too really; too late now though

Roland: Type ID?

Steven: Interesting
... M12n says CDATA

<ShaneM> CDATA is correct for @target

Roland: Would it matter that we left target on some elements?

Steven: You're suggesting we could use the same definition of target on dispatchEvent
... hmm, possible

<alessio> http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/2008/WD-xhtml-access-20080107/

Roland: @target just becomes contextual
... the only place it would be problematic would be if you couldn;t determine the context

Steven: I'm not sure if I like it

<ShaneM> The problem is that if it is in Common it will collide

Steven: I need to let it sink in

<ShaneM> and in XHTML 2 it would need to be in Common

Well, Shane, we would use the one in Common, that is the suggestion

Roland: Well we can noodle on it for a while

<ShaneM> I don't think you can. XML Events 2 is independent of XHTML 2. Implementation-wise it could use Common's definition, but we would still have to define it in XML Events 2

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-forms/2008Sep/0029

Steven: They are asking why we renamed to dispatchEvent

Roland: We'd have to look at the minutes
... maybe because it was different from the one in XForms

Steven: I'll talk to them in the next hour

ADJOURN

<alessio> bye, have a good day :)

rrsahgent, make minutes
