15:22:12 <Najib-ma> Najib-ma has joined #i18n
15:22:22 <aphillip> richard: came up with two things
15:22:26 <aphillip> ... one is editorial nit
15:23:18 <aphillip> ... the other is that "invalid content" can be made available
15:23:23 <fsasaki_> fsasaki_ has joined #i18n
15:23:28 <aphillip> richard: suggests that shouldn't be let off
15:23:52 <aphillip> ... because it'll become confusing
15:24:17 <aphillip> ... and de facto supported and would need stuf like bidi and language and other markup
15:24:26 <aharon> I agree about non-url in longdesc
15:24:26 <aphillip> richard: okay to send?
15:25:02 <aphillip> norbert: first one non-WG?

15:27:37 <aphillip> richard: working on wiki this week
15:27:43 <aphillip> ... maybe discuss
15:28:09 <aphillip> richard: aharon gave me some text to use
15:28:19 <aphillip> ... "do we still need isolate embeddings"
15:28:33 <aphillip> ... aharon suggesting:
15:28:38 <r12a> Unfortunately, existing bidi pages contain all sorts of bidi cruft that
15:28:39 <r12a> > only works given the old embed semantics (and may not work in modern
15:28:39 <r12a> > versions of Internet Explorer). This does not mean that embed semantics
15:28:40 <r12a> > really are necessary. The desired outcome can still be obtained with
15:28:42 <r12a> > isolate semantics, usually with simpler, clearer markup. Here are a
15:28:44 <r12a> > couple of examples.
15:29:13 <RRSAgent> I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2013/04/11-i18n-minutes.html aphillip
15:29:24 <aphillip> richard: been downplaying problem, thinking not that large
15:29:33 <aphillip> ... but solution A could break a lot of pages?
15:29:40 <aphillip> ... is that not necessarily case?
15:29:46 <aphillip> ... question for aharon
15:29:49 <aphillip> ... also...
15:29:55 <aphillip> ... if change semantics of @dir
15:30:20 <fsasaki> fsasaki has joined #i18n
15:30:21 <aphillip> ... maybe add @isolate that is default on
15:30:34 <aphillip> ... and use @isolate=no to turn off
15:32:23 <aphillip> addison: breaks existing pages?
15:32:38 <aphillip> aharon: mentioning as possibility
15:32:41 <aphillip> ... not a new idea
15:32:45 <aphillip> ... html came up with it
15:32:51 <aphillip> ... but in opposite direction
15:33:05 <aphillip> ... add @isolate=on to turn on
15:33:25 <aphillip> ... need to dispose of idea, must deal with it
15:33:32 <RRSAgent> I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2013/04/11-i18n-minutes.html aphillip
15:33:50 <aphillip> aharon: not sure about the question?
15:33:58 <aphillip> ... didn't intend to worry you :-)
15:34:08 <aphillip> ... IE semantics changed
15:34:18 <aphillip> ... is pages depend on this, got broke in IE
15:34:34 <aphillip> ... so not so worried about it
15:34:43 <aphillip> ... more concerned about different idea
15:34:52 <aphillip> ... old embed semantics in some applications or cases
15:35:00 <aphillip> ... might be a reason to use them
15:35:06 <RRSAgent> I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2013/04/11-i18n-minutes.html aphillip
15:35:13 <aphillip> aharon: wanted to explore
15:35:19 <aphillip> ... concluded that it si not true
15:35:23 <aphillip> s/si/is/
15:35:42 <aphillip> norbert: embedding semantics were wrong all along?
15:35:56 <aphillip> aharon: no, but pages that depend on them work better with isolate
15:36:58 <aphillip> aharon: browsers no longer interop anyway
15:37:08 <aphillip> norbert: not a problem for anybody?
15:37:39 <aphillip> richard: two exmaples used are not affected on IE
15:37:56 <aphillip> aharon: examples no longer work on IE
15:38:13 <aphillip> ... if you load local page, it uses IE7 semantics
15:38:21 <aphillip> ... if you load from web
15:38:29 <aphillip> ... uses IE9 semantics
15:38:53 <aphillip> richard: some things work better because of IE
15:39:06 <aphillip> ... text made is sound like breaking huge number of pages
15:39:14 <aphillip> ... maybe some but not desparately bad
15:39:30 <aphillip> aharon: this is the para about bidi cruft?
15:39:43 <aphillip> ... try to review that one
15:39:56 <RRSAgent> I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2013/04/11-i18n-minutes.html aphillip
15:40:07 <aphillip> richard: includes workarounds there
15:40:17 <aphillip> ... <quotes page>
15:40:19 <r12a> Here are a couple of examples of edge cases where authors have put workarounds in place that try to make embedded text behave like isolated text. This bidi cruft only works given the old embed semantics
15:40:26 <RRSAgent> I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2013/04/11-i18n-minutes.html aphillip
15:40:32 <aphillip> aharon: will reconsider para
15:40:40 <aphillip> richard: still on track for solution A being preferred
15:40:44 <aphillip> ... think it is best
15:40:51 <aphillip> ... change semantics of @dir to make isolating
15:40:56 <aphillip> aharon: agre
15:41:06 <aphillip> JcK: agree
15:41:07 <Najib-ma> I'm not hot to change semantic of @dir
15:41:32 <aphillip> richard: means to reply to Najib's email
15:41:49 <aphillip> aharon: I sent a reply, need to refresh memory of that
15:42:03 <aphillip> norbert: last week mostly discussed B

15:44:48 <aphillip> aharon: once spec changes, FF, Chrome will rapidly update
15:45:00 <aphillip> ... and IE is already incompatible and mostly isolates
15:45:08 <aphillip> ... so this will improve interop
15:45:11 <aphillip> ... for authors
15:45:36 <aphillip> ... never explained and use of @dir *usage* doesn't really change
15:46:07 <aphillip> ... use of LRM etc.
