Steven: Did we?

Erik: I don't think so.

Steven: That's what I thought too. OK I'll send him a message.

<scribe> ACTION: Steven to reply to Liam about Community Group [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2015/04/01-forms-minutes.html#action01]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-2021 - Reply to liam about community group [on Steven Pemberton - due 2015-04-08].

ACTION-2018 - Confirm that min() and max() are compatible with the ones in xpath 2

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-forms/2015Apr/0002.html

Steven: Not sure what conclusion to draw.

Erik: Me neither.
... they are not fully compatible.
... close but not compatible.

Steven: The XPath 2 version is much more useful. Like comparing strings.

Erik: Much more useful. Two ways of doing it, if we agree to using XPath 2 one.
... There are two ways of doing XPath 1.0 compatibility, either use an XPath 1.0 processor, ior use a XPath 2.0 processor in compatibility mode.

Steven: Did XPath 1.0- have max/min

Erik: No

Steven: So in XPath 1 compatibility we have to supply min and max.
... but we otherwise just use XPath 2 min/max
... We need to check match(), replace() and eval-in-context, for compatibility issues.

Erik: min/max differ between XForms 1.1 and XPath 2 in the behaviour with NaN.
... IN compatibility mode, then we don't use the XPath 2 functions, but the XForms 1.1 functions, specifically min/max

<scribe> ACTION: Erik to write text for min/max in compatibility mode. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2015/04/01-forms-minutes.html#action02]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-2022 - Write text for min/max in compatibility mode. [on Erik Bruchez - due 2015-04-08].

Erik: seconds-from datetime and one other has a similar problem with clashing
... and needs to be solved
... we need to check this.

<scribe> ACTION: Erik to check compatibility problems with seconds-from-datetime and one other. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2015/04/01-forms-minutes.html#action03]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-2023 - Check compatibility problems with seconds-from-datetime and one other. [on Erik Bruchez - due 2015-04-08].

XPath Expressions Module, 4.4 to end

http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/wiki/XPath_Expressions_Module#Date_and_Time_Functions

Steven: We won't discuss this week, but please look especially at the note at the end of 4.5.3
... in 4.5.5 "It is an error"> Needs more text
... in 4.6.3, it doesn't generate an error, but returns empty string...

AOB

Philip: No.
