Email type

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2017Jun/0040

Steven: We agreed to adopt this, but we didn't agree on names.
... We have two types now, ascii email and international.

Erik: We should keep 'email' as the name for the ascii one (backwards compatibility)

Steven: iemal?
... iemail?
... any better suggestions?
... I'll use iemail for now.

<scribe> ACTION: Steven to add the two email types to the spec [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2017/09/06-forms-minutes.html#action01]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-2134 - Add the two email types to the spec [on Steven Pemberton - due 2017-09-13].

Validation and optional fields

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2017Jun/0041

Steven: in progress; done by next week.

<reset instance="id"/>

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2017Jul/0000

Steven: This is about all actions that have an ID attribute.
... Currently if the ID fails to identify anything, the action does nothing.

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2017Jul/0025.html

Steven: Backwards compatibility problems?

Erik: In a group of actions, if one fails, the rest don't get run I think

<ebruchez> https://www.w3.org/community/xformsusers/wiki/XForms_2.0#The_xforms-action-error_Event

Erik: xforms-action-error is a fatal error
... Do we care?

Steven: I can live with the change

RESOLUTION: All actions that have an ID attribute that fails to identify a suitable element will dispatch an action-error.

<scribe> ACTION: Steven to implement resolution making actions dispatch an action-error for id attributes [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2017/09/06-forms-minutes.html#action02]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-2135 - Implement resolution making actions dispatch an action-error for id attributes [on Steven Pemberton - due 2017-09-13].

Submission echo

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2017Jun/0042

Steven: It occurred to me that we could use mode="echo"

Erik: I'm not opposed to something else than the URL.
... Mode is a bit funny though

Steven: It's not completely unreasonable; it is a sort of mode of sending.

Erik: In a series of actions, synchronous or not could have an effect on how it works.

Steven: On you implementation where you use resource="echo:", does @mode have any effect?

Erik: Good question; I would have to check.

Steven: Let's think on.

<ebruchez> mode="synchronous echo"

Erik: You could use tokens.

Steven: That could work.

switch/case

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2017Jun/0032

Steven: This is still pending.

Dynamic dependencies

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2017Mar/0012

[Awaiting an example]

Steven: Waiting for an example from you Erik.

Erik: Ack.

Alert MIP

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2017Jun/0014

Steven: Are we interested in going ahead with this?
... It seems to have support on the list.

Erik: We don't implement this, though we do something similar, linking alerts to the individual constraints.

<scribe> ACTION: Steven spec up alert MIP for further discussion. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2017/09/06-forms-minutes.html#action03]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-2136 - Spec up alert mip for further discussion. [on Steven Pemberton - due 2017-09-13].
