- .. he was unaware of stuff we are doing, need closer communication
- 16:19:07 [fsasaki]
- .. robin sent the draft to public i18n cjk list for review
- 16:19:20 [fsasaki]
- .. we need to look into this in the next couple of weeks of possible
- 16:19:21 [aphillip]
- action: addison: remind group to review berjon's ruby spec extension proposal
- 16:19:21 [trackbot]
- Created ACTION-184 - Remind group to review berjon's ruby spec extension proposal [on Addison Phillips - due 2013-02-21].
- 16:19:34 [fsasaki]
- .. what is proposed: availibility of an rb tag
- 16:19:48 [fsasaki]
- .. fantasia proposes an rb.rb.rt model
- 16:19:55 [fsasaki]
- .. that is with multiple bases
- 16:20:01 [aphillip]
- s/fantasia/fantasai/
- 16:20:03 [fsasaki]
- .. I think that this is not necessary
- 16:20:33 [fsasaki]
- richard: fantasai is concered that if you have an inline set in your ruby
- 16:20:48 [fsasaki]
- .. annotations at the end of the base characters should be dropped
- 16:21:06 [fsasaki]
- .. I think that can be done easily done by the browser re-organizing information
- 16:21:22 [fsasaki]
- .. doing that with markup is a very long tail for waging a small dog
- 16:21:32 [fsasaki]
- .. now double sided ruby:
- 16:21:48 [fsasaki]
- .. fantasai is against nesting of ruby elements
- 16:22:08 [fsasaki]
- .. she wants to go closer to what the old spec said
- 16:22:23 [fsasaki]
- .. but the old spec uses an rtc element for the secondary level of annotation
- 16:23:14 [fsasaki]
- .. having done nested stuff I think it's straightforward, I'm not support about the current html5 approach
- 16:23:44 [fsasaki]
- .. fantasai's proposal is easier but has to be described like that
- 16:24:28 [aphillip]
- zakim, agenda?
- 16:24:28 [Zakim]
- I see 3 items remaining on the agenda:

- 2. Ruby Annotation Extension Spec [from aphillip]

- 16:24:53 [Zakim]
- agendum 3. "Moving Forward Bidi Change Proposal" taken up [from aphillip]
- 16:25:22 [RRSAgent]
- I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2013/02/14-i18n-minutes.html fsasaki
- 16:25:45 [fsasaki]
- richard: in the past we wanted to get isolated spans used in inline markup
- 16:25:59 [fsasaki]
- .. we had thought that we would write an extension spec for HTML5
- 16:26:15 [fsasaki]
- .. with two attribute in HTML5, corresponding to new unicode control characters
- 16:26:28 [fsasaki]
- .. however, thinking it over, I thought this might not be the best way forward
- 16:26:47 [fsasaki]
- .. the best way might be: to create a new attribute "direction"
- 16:27:06 [fsasaki]
- .. that attribute would have ltr, rtl, auto as values
- 16:27:16 [fsasaki]
- .. and it would produce isolation by default
- 16:28:42 [fsasaki]
- .. you cannot like in CSS put in two things and have the 2nd one taken up
- 16:28:46 [fsasaki]
- .. e.g. two instances of "dir"
- 16:28:58 [fsasaki]
- .. we already have problems confusing rtl and ltr when they type
- 16:29:11 [fsasaki]
- .. adding lri rli has the potential to increase typos
- 16:29:23 [fsasaki]
- .. people have to take "intelligent decisions" what to choose
- 16:29:36 [fsasaki]
- .. most people have no clue about the importance of isolation
- 16:29:46 [fsasaki]
- .. and continue what they have always done
- 16:29:56 [fsasaki]
- .. there is a downside of using new values
- 16:30:02 [fsasaki]
- aaron: another downside:
- 16:30:13 [aphillip]
- s/aaron/aharon/
- 16:30:18 [fsasaki]
- .. lri and rli more or less explicitly say "this should be isloated"
- 16:30:29 [fsasaki]
- .. that is fine for inline markup, but what about a block element?
- 16:30:43 [fsasaki]
- .. it doesn't makes sense to write <p dir="lri">
- 16:30:59 [fsasaki]
- .. so ltr and rtl would not get completely deprecated really
- 16:31:11 [fsasaki]
- richard: an alternative would be the "direction" attribute
- 16:31:20 [fsasaki]
- .. with the three values ltr, rtl, auto
- 16:31:36 [aphillip]
- <p dir="rtl" direction="ltr"> :-(
- 16:31:37 [fsasaki]
- .. it has the advantage to use it alongside dir
- 16:31:38 [fsasaki]
- q+
- 16:31:51 [fsasaki]
- ack me
- 16:32:53 [fsasaki]
- felix: what guidance would we give people for non-HTML scenarios?
- 16:33:13 [fsasaki]
- richard: good question - will come back to that later?
- 16:33:48 [fsasaki]
- richard: if we deprecate dir we can move into the direction of "direction"
- 16:33:59 [fsasaki]
- aphillip: that would make many pages invalid
- 16:34:03 [fsasaki]
- richard: correct
- 16:34:23 [fsasaki]
- .. additional advantes of direction attribute: people continue to use the same values
- 16:34:37 [fsasaki]
- .. they just need to know "direction" rather than "dir"
- 16:34:46 [fsasaki]
- .. and it doesn't rely on CSS available
- 16:35:07 [fsasaki]
- .. the drawback is that it is a pain to use two attributes at the same time
- 16:35:36 [RRSAgent]
- I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2013/02/14-i18n-minutes.html fsasaki
- 16:35:46 [fsasaki]
- richard: one new topic related to this
- 16:35:57 [fsasaki]
- .. we almost never want to do non-isloated text
- 16:36:31 [fsasaki]
- .. in unicode report that describes lri and rli it says you can still use the old values
- 16:36:37 [Najib-ma]

- I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2013/02/14-i18n-minutes.html aphillip
- 16:36:49 [fsasaki]
- .. if we go away from the old values we will loose the ability to embed
- 16:37:00 [fsasaki]
- .. which may be useful in some circumstances
- 16:37:14 [fsasaki]
- .. we could have a new attribute that produces isolation
- 16:37:22 [fsasaki]
- .. and we could keep dir
- 16:37:34 [fsasaki]
- .. the new attribute could be EDI
- 16:37:39 [fsasaki]
- .. or bd for "base direction"
- 16:37:43 [aphillip]
- s/EDI/BDI/
- 16:38:04 [fsasaki]
- .. aharon already said you can use direction aspect of block elements
- 16:38:12 [fsasaki]
- .. so we can give clearer guidance
- 16:39:23 [matial]
- I don't see the difference between the direction attr and the bd(i) attribute
- 16:39:51 [aphillip]
- <p dir="rtl" embed>
- 16:40:01 [fsasaki]
- richard: some people have used directionality in a way they shouldn't
- 16:40:06 [aphillip]
- <p dir="ltr" isoloate>
- 16:40:23 [fsasaki]
- .. so generally we always want isolation
- 16:40:29 [RRSAgent]
- I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2013/02/14-i18n-minutes.html fsasaki
- 16:40:41 [fsasaki]
- aharon: yes
- 16:41:18 [fsasaki]
- .. it is not theoretical:
- 16:41:35 [fsasaki]
- .. I know people who use dir in a way that does embedding, not isolation
- 16:42:07 [fsasaki]
- .. changing the semantics of dir is not an option, and taking it away is not an option either
- 16:43:26 [fsasaki]
- .. it is incorrect to say that block elements are isloated
- 16:43:41 [fsasaki]
- s/isloated/isolated/
- 16:44:58 [fsasaki]
- aharon: what to do about dir name and CSS - that is not an issue
- 16:45:10 [fsasaki]
- .. if you have <span direction="ltr">
- 16:45:15 [fsasaki]
- .. meaning it is isolated
- 16:45:28 [fsasaki]
- ... directionality is ltr, i.e. <span dir="ltr>
- 16:45:41 [fsasaki]
- .. that is the same, since direcitonality influecnes what you want to do inside the element
- 16:45:54 [fsasaki]
- .. islolation talkes about what is outside the element
- 16:46:36 [aphillip]
- <span dir="rtl" isolate>
- 16:46:48 [fsasaki]
- .. dir is then ignored by new browser if they use direction
- 16:48:04 [fsasaki]
- aphillip: we have an auto?
- 16:48:14 [fsasaki]
- aharon: dir=auto is isolating
- 16:48:33 [fsasaki]
- richard: in implementations currently it isolates but doesn't do the "auto" part
- 16:48:58 [aphillip]
- s/we have an auto/is auto equivalent to FSI/
- 16:50:09 [fsasaki]
- aphillip: what actions follow from this?

- richard: need to continue discussion, basic proposal is in mail I sent
- 16:50:49 [fsasaki]
- q+
- 16:51:03 [fsasaki]
- richard: need to decide whether we should choose option two
- 16:51:11 [fsasaki]
- .. and need to think about getting things moving
- 16:51:29 [fsasaki]
- .. and then we need to find something to author extension spec ...
- 16:51:51 [fsasaki]
- .. before we do all that I think

- felix: should we look into this proposal?
- 16:53:51 [fsasaki]
- richard: that proposal just said that there are two types of direction
- 16:54:02 [fsasaki]
- .. there is a note about isolation, and I think the proposal is still valid
- 16:54:28 [fsasaki]
- .. the point is then you define the attribute values
- 16:54:58 [fsasaki]
- aphillip: we were pointing to HTML4
- 16:55:12 [fsasaki]
- richard: rlo and lro also don't exist in HTML5, but as concepts they do
- 16:55:18 [fsasaki]
- richard: like to hear opinions
- 16:55:26 [matial]
- zakim, unmute me
- 16:55:26 [Zakim]
- matial should no longer be muted
- 16:56:08 [fsasaki]
- aphillip: need to look into more material before making decisions
- 16:56:31 [fsasaki]
- matial: we cannot change dir behavior because we don't want to break existing pages
- 16:56:45 [fsasaki]
- .. we cannot unify one attribute because often documents are composed from various pieces
- 16:57:31 [fsasaki]
- .. telling to use two different attributes for direction, one for blocks and one for inline, will be hard to educate people
- 16:58:28 [fsasaki]
- matial: xxx is the best thing (scribe missed)

- I favors option 2.
- 17:01:14 [Najib-ma]
- Thinks it is reasonable.
- 17:01:20 [Najib-ma]
- But I fear people think of "direction" attribute as a new name of "dir" attribute.
- 17:01:22 [Najib-ma]
- and then will be surprised by the effect of isolate, if any.
- 17:01:27 [Najib-ma]

- 17:02:32 [aphillip]
- richard: one more question for aharon
- 17:02:44 [aphillip]
- ... people have used dir embedding wrongly
- 17:02:54 [aphillip]
- ... but are there other cases where you want to embed rather than isolate on purpose?
- 17:03:08 [joconner]
- joconner has left #i18n
- 17:03:09 [aphillip]
- aharon: no, because then you get with LRM,etc.
- 17:03:41 [aphillip]
- richard: if you put dir on span in same direction, no action?
