Erik: Last time we clarified the
namespaces for functions
... two namespaces, one for all functions, and one for only the
XForms functions
... This function is one of the compatibility functions
... because of the clash with XPath 2
... We could have given them different names,
... If you use the XForms prefix, you can use the new and old
names, to maximise the compatibility.
... On the one hand it maximises compatibility, but on the
other it is a little bit complex
Steven: Should we have one section or two?
Erik: Well the names are different but the functionality is the same
Steven: Couldn't we unravel this, to make it clear that the epoch version is the preferred?
Erik: Let me try and do it as two sections, explaining that the old one is only there for compatibility.
Steven: Let's look a it again next week then.
Erik: Sure

Steven: I was lead to this from a
tweet that Alain sent about OpenStreettMap
... it would be good to have a look at their additions, and
evaluate them for possible (future) inclusion
Erik: I had a quick glance, I didn't see what's new.
Steven: I saw some stuff on <upload> and <repeat>. I'll summarise in an email.

Steven: So we can merge @object/@array and @type
Erik: I agree, and that's what I do!
Steven: And we can default to type="string"
Erik: Also agree
<scribe> ACTION: Steven merge @object @ array and @type in JSON, and make type="string" the default [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2016/01/13-forms-minutes.html#action01]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-2046 - Merge @object @ array and @type in json, and make type="string" the default [on Steven Pemberton - due 2016-01-20].
"At the time of evaluation, an expression must be syntactically correct. In addition, the namespaces the expression references must be in scope and the functions and variables it references must be defined. If any of these conditions is not satisfied, an error is raised depending on the location of the expression: xforms-expression-error Event, xforms-binding-error Event, or xforms-action-error Event."

Steven: So I have a question mark in my marked up version of the spec about this section, and I'm not sure what we agreed about this text
"an error is raised"
Erik: [Explains the text, that it is about static processing]
Steven: So there's nothing wrong with this paragraph?
Erik: It seems to be reasonable.
Steven: I'm happy with that, then I don't need to edit it.
Erik: Oh, this is the only place we use the phrase, use "an error event is dispatched"
Steven: Ah! Good.
Erik: We use the phrase in the XPath chapter as well
<ebruchez> duplicated in https://www.w3.org/community/xformsusers/wiki/XPath_Expressions_Module#XPath_Expressions_in_XForms
Steven: Use the same wording there?
Erik: But we shouldn't have duplication of text
<scribe> ACTION: Steven to remove duplication of XForms section4 in XPath Module section3 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2016/01/13-forms-minutes.html#action02]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-2047 - Remove duplication of xforms section4 in xpath module section3 [on Steven Pemberton - due 2016-01-20].
Steven: I'm through today's agenda. Anything else?
[No]
