The better advice is 19:28:53 You should not use a script code if the predominant usage of the language is with a single script, and you don't need a contrast to remove ambiguity. 19:28:53 For example, either Latin or Cyrllic are appropriate for use with uz, because of 'a'. As another example, where audio and written content need to be distinguished, one can use the "en-Latn" for written content and "en-Zxxx" for audio content. 19:28:53 ... and mark wrote: 19:32:05 YvesS has joined #core 19:32:25 sorry, could not make it before. 19:33:34 +YvesS 19:34:22 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2009/09/02-core-minutes.html aphillip 19:39:24 http://rishida.net/utils/subtags/index.php?find=malay&submit=Find&lookup=&list=0&check= 19:41:09 its a case by case basis. 19:46:04 maybe the rule of thumb is use the minimal langauge tag you need to provide the level of identification oyu need? 19:46:28 which seems ot cover all cases 19:47:47 Ultimately, it would probably be useful for the I18N WG to provide a reference about legacy encodings, superset encodings, and the famous "willful violation of CharMod" in HTML5, published as a WG Note. 19:48:46 they use legacy in multiple ways 19:52:15 slowly working through html5 19:52:47 not yet, but still need to go through a lot more of html5 first 19:54:33 maybe a start would be to write a HTML5 internationalisation cheatsheet based on our existing techniques documents, faqs, etc 19:55:04 use public list to share comments as you find them 19:55:26 ok 19:55:58 although html5 like css3 is likely to be an ingremental implementation 19:56:07 incremental 19:56:24 at soem point the horse has bolted, but at what point? 19:57:34 esp since firefox and opera are starting to implement parts of it already ;) 20:00:02 -David 20:00:03 -YvesS 20:00:04 -addison 20:00:08 -Richard 20:00:13 -??P0 20:00:15 I18N_CoreWG()3:00PM has ended 20:00:16 Attendees were David, addison, Richard, andrewc, YvesS 20:01:08 andrewc has left #core 20:13:43 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2009/09/02-core-minutes.html aphillip 20:13:47 zakim, bye 20:13:47 Zakim has left #core 20:13:51 rrsagent, bye 20:13:51 I see 2 open action items saved in http://www.w3.org/2009/09/02-core-actions.rdf : 20:13:51 ACTION: Richard: publish bidi techniquest document [1] 20:13:51 recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/09/02-core-irc#T19-14-43 20:13:51 ACTION: David: coordinate getting new dst scheduling [2] 20:13:51 recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/09/02-core-irc#T19-16-50
