<r12a> http://www.w3.org/International/track/products/40
richard: read longdesc
... came up with two things
... one is editorial nit
... the other is that "invalid content" can be made
available
... suggests that shouldn't be let off
... because it'll become confusing
... and de facto supported and would need stuf like bidi and
language and other markup
<aharon> I agree about non-url in longdesc
richard: okay to send?
norbert: first one non-WG?
addison: agree
norbert: second one yes
addison: agree
<scribe> chair: approve

<r12a> http://www.w3.org/International/wiki/Html-bidi-isolation-new
richard: working on wiki this
week
... maybe discuss
... aharon gave me some text to use
... "do we still need isolate embeddings"
... aharon suggesting:
<r12a> Unfortunately, existing bidi pages contain all sorts of bidi cruft that
<r12a> > only works given the old embed semantics (and may not work in modern
<r12a> > versions of Internet Explorer). This does not mean that embed semantics
<r12a> > really are necessary. The desired outcome can still be obtained with
<r12a> > isolate semantics, usually with simpler, clearer markup. Here are a
<r12a> > couple of examples.
richard: been downplaying
problem, thinking not that large
... but solution A could break a lot of pages?
... is that not necessarily case?
... question for aharon
... also...
... if change semantics of @dir
... maybe add @isolate that is default on
... and use @isolate=no to turn off
addison: breaks existing pages?
aharon: mentioning as
possibility
... not a new idea
... html came up with it
... but in opposite direction
... add @isolate=on to turn on
... need to dispose of idea, must deal with it
... not sure about the question?
... didn't intend to worry you :-)
... IE semantics changed
... is pages depend on this, got broke in IE
... so not so worried about it
... more concerned about different idea
... old embed semantics in some applications or cases
... might be a reason to use them
... wanted to explore
... concluded that it is not true
norbert: embedding semantics were wrong all along?
aharon: no, but pages that depend
on them work better with isolate
... browsers no longer interop anyway
norbert: not a problem for anybody?
richard: two exmaples used are not affected on IE
aharon: examples no longer work
on IE
... if you load local page, it uses IE7 semantics
... if you load from web
... uses IE9 semantics
richard: some things work better
because of IE
... text made is sound like breaking huge number of pages
... maybe some but not desparately bad
aharon: this is the para about
bidi cruft?
... try to review that one
richard: includes workarounds
there
... <quotes page>
<r12a> Here are a couple of examples of edge cases where authors have put workarounds in place that try to make embedded text behave like isolated text. This bidi cruft only works given the old embed semantics
aharon: will reconsider para
richard: still on track for
solution A being preferred
... think it is best
... change semantics of @dir to make isolating
aharon: agre
JcK: agree
<Najib-ma> I'm not hot to change semantic of @dir
richard: means to reply to Najib's email
aharon: I sent a reply, need to refresh memory of that
norbert: last time mostly
discussed B
... need to refresh
<r12a> https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/member-i18n-core/2013Mar/0027.html
aharon: once spec changes, FF,
Chrome will rapidly update
... and IE is already incompatible and mostly isolates
... so this will improve interop
... for authors
... never explained and use of @dir *usage* doesn't really
change
... use of LRM etc.
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/member-i18n-core/2013Apr/0000.html
richard: gimme a day or so to
finish up changes
... aharon to add some text
... will send to list
... suggesting a read-over

<trackbot> Created ACTION-206 - Announce to the member list for review next week with a goal of publishing for wide revew [on Richard Ishida - due 2013-04-18].
aharon: wanted to update on an
issue
... bug on html5
... dir=auto
... and human readable attributes
... like @title or @placeholder
... asked for a simple thing
... if element with @dir=auto
... that element's attributes will get direction of auto
... not from element
... and Hixie did in html-next
addison: the default direction of
UA
... think that's a bad idea
... make WG comment to say very bad idea?
aharon: don't even understand motivation?
<scribe> ACTION: addison: comment on default direction in UA bug for WG saying "bad idea" [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2013/04/11-i18n-minutes.html#action04]
