16:11:25 [Norm]

16:12:01 [Norm]
Topic: Henry's PR draft of XML processor profiles
16:13:45 [Norm]
Henry: If we leave it as I've written it, it's just a hint to remind folks that the XML spec doesn't require much.
16:13:57 [Norm]
...If you wanted to do better, you'd have to enumerate the infoset items that are required.
16:14:37 [Norm]
...But I can imagine that people will be frustrated if they have to *both* point to this profile document *and* enumerate the items.
16:14:59 [Norm]
Vojtech: I wonder if this small sentence opens new freedom in how to interpret this spec.
16:15:57 [Norm]
Norm: I don't think so, it's just more explicit about what isn't being said.
16:16:16 [Norm]
Henry: The question is, should we put the additional detail in this spec.
16:16:40 [Norm]
...We'd have to make section 3 normative in a way that it isn't now.
16:16:46 [Norm]
Vojtech: It reduces the number of interpretations.
16:17:47 [Norm]
Henry: I'm not sure it's reasonable.
16:17:51 [Norm]
Norm: Why not?
16:18:15 [Norm]
Henry: Here's an example: the infoset spec has three different properties having to do with prefix bindings, any two of which will do
16:18:46 [Norm]
Norm: So we could say in that case that you have to provide two of the following three properties.
16:19:36 [Norm]
Henry: Does any one know if the widely used processors support the namespace attributes property?
16:20:05 [Norm]
Norm: The Java processors based on JAXP don't.
16:20:26 [Norm]
Henry: Some of the Python one's do. Whether they should or not is an another question.
16:21:41 [Norm]
Norm: I think it would be nice to do it.
16:22:10 [Norm]
Norm: Henry, would you try to draft it?
16:22:31 [Norm]
Henry: Yes, but it'll take a little while. I won't know if it's going to be straightforward or not until I've worked my way further into it.
16:22:52 [Norm]
...I can imagine that it might wind up being a two-dimensional structure depending on what parts of what specs you support.
16:24:01 [Norm]
...And what about characters, most specs don't return individual character information items.
16:24:09 [Norm]
...As you can see, it's going to take a little while to work it out.
16:24:38 [Norm]
Norm: Ok. I think it's good that we're going to look at this.
16:24:59 [Norm]
