IS> Dear all,

IS> Here are few comments 

Thanks for the comments,  Mohamed. These are being tracked under ISSUE-2344 and I have ACTION-2821 to update the spec in response to your comment.

IS> * ECMAScript is now at 5th Edition of December 2009

It is. I'm  just checking which edition of ECMAScript is in fact implemented by current implementations before updating that reference. There is a concern regarding language changes so we want to be sure to reference the correct edition here.

IS> * The latest ICC.1 spec is ICC.1:2004-10 (Version 4.2.0.0)
Yes.

IS> * The latest version of ISO8601 is 2004
IS> http://www.iso.org/iso/fr/catalogue_detail?csnumber=40874

OK

IS> * JPEG the reference has now been updated to ISO/IEC 10918-1:1994/Cor 1:2005
IS> * SRGB has been updated to IEC 61966-2-1/Amd 1:2003

Thanks for pointers to the latest JPEG and sRGB specs.

IS> * Unicode 5.2.0 has been released

Yes. As XML 5th edition specifically links to the 'latest' version of Unicode and since the I18n Core WG refer to it also in their discussions of bidi it seems clear we should reference the latest one, too.


IS> * XMLBase :  The link is good but the test should say that it's the
IS> Second Edition

Agreed.

IS> * XML-NS should point to the third Edition

Indeed.

IS> * XLINK should be updated to XLINK 1.1 which is now a REC and remove
IS> XLINK 1.1 from informative reference

Yes, good catch. In fact most existing SVG 1.1 content is more conformant to XLink 1.1 than to 1.0 (omits xlink:type="simple" in the instance).

IS> * XPointer is at the status of Working draft and should not be in the
IS> normative reference

Its also not referred to anywhere from the rest of the spec, so this reference has been deleted.

IS> * NVDL has been updated to ISO/IEC 19757-4:2006/Cor 1:2008

OK

IS> * OpenType has been updated to 1.6

We would like to check on implementation status before updating that one.

IS> * SMIL1 has been outdated by SMIL3

Yes.

IS> Please add a link to Relax NG version of SVG 1.1

If one existed, we would happily link to it. A good RNG I mean, not some namespace-less travesty auto-generated from the DTD :) but we do not have one as yet.

Do you happen to have one?

If not, we plan to create one in due course, but it won't be under /TR and will be a separate publication. We would probably start with the SVG 1.2T RNG, removing 1.2-specific elements and adding the elements and attributes that are in 1.1 but not in 1.2T.
