DOM3 Events

aharon: raised this issue already?

addison: need to check if they did it as "feature at risk" or not, believe we need to raise as issue
... need to check on it

aharon: should it be event or global object or both?

<scribe> ACTION: aharon: check DOM3 events to see if they have included our issue about keyboard locale [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2010/10/13-i18n-minutes.html#action02]

Review HTML5

aharon: items closed were iffy items and don't feel that they are likely to be in HTML spec as a result
... line separator and scroll bars and such
... ubi, dir are not being rejected as of now, but useful discussion
... should have opinion on whether attribute or element etc.

<r12a> http://www.w3.org/International/reviews/html5-bidi/

aharon: at least eight issues still under consideration

richard: some items accepted

addison: let's make sure we review the closed list

<scribe> ACTION: addison: propose time for some facetime at IUC34 to review HTML progress [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2010/10/13-i18n-minutes.html#action03]

richard: raised some other bugs
... one was wontfixed
... exception for UTF-16
... to allow it in charset= in <meta>
... Henri S objected, Hixie wants to close
... no in-document declaration other than BOM in UTF-16
... we think this is a problem because can't visually inspect

table utf-16 issue for later consideration

AOB?
