addison: it could be beneficial to both our needs and to their WG's public perception
21:32:26 [aphillip]
... it's a big job, tho'
21:35:34 [aphillip]
(sounds of terror from wg members)
21:36:23 [aphillip]
david: might be worth asking "when might be good"
21:36:46 [aphillip]
... just so there is a feeling of a level of control/care
21:38:06 [aphillip]
ACTION: addison: write to html-wg and see if there is a good review milestone upcoming
21:38:14 [aphillip]
Topic: Unicode Normalization in CSS Selectors, XML, HTML, and the fate of CharMod
21:38:39 [aphillip]
http://www.w3.org/International/wiki/NormalizationProposal
21:39:53 [aphillip]
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-core/2009JanMar/0311.html
21:43:56 [aphillip]
richard: maybe either D or C form?
21:44:07 [aphillip]
... key thing is that it isn't a K form
21:44:24 [aphillip]
... but it is a Unicode normalization form
21:44:45 [aphillip]
richard: my other concern...
21:45:03 [aphillip]
... we've been talking about (e.g.) Myanmar or Khmer
21:45:16 [aphillip]
... where they use multiple diacritics that can appear in multiple order
21:45:28 [aphillip]
... those were some of the reasons why we're talking about that
21:45:36 [aphillip]
... very few non-zero combining marks in these languages
21:45:55 [aphillip]
... so actually even a problem if you normalize
21:46:11 [aphillip]
... because non-zero combiners don't reorganize
21:46:17 [aphillip]
... also may apply to indics
21:47:44 [aphillip]
addison: have to deal with all these bizarro corner cases (in a document like charmodnorm???)
21:47:52 [aphillip]
richard: give examples?

richard: need something to point to
21:59:38 [aphillip]
addison: hence the wiki page
21:59:52 [aphillip]
richard: take the charmod materials out and put it here
22:02:56 [aphillip]
addison: need to crawl some subsections?
22:03:06 [aphillip]
... will try to ask Mark for a crawl
22:03:21 [aphillip]
dan: look at charmod and its
22:03:42 [aphillip]
... does it help if ITS had a definition for how text is normalized
