- richard introduces layout requirements documents
- 08:28:26 [addison]
- Chinese, Mongolian, Tibetan, Uighur
- 08:28:45 [fsasaki]
- richard: goal to review state of various languages and potential next steps
- 08:29:08 [fsasaki]
- ... we have not moved forward since last TPAC
- 08:29:40 [fsasaki]
- ... we published FPWD for chinese document. We were close to publish simplified chinese doc, but never got it reviewed for accuracy
- 08:30:09 [fsasaki]
- ... nothing has happened for a year. what do you think, what will / should happen next?
- 08:30:48 [fsasaki]
- bobby: on github we have issues, not so important. Apologies for the delay of the year, this time I will get the issues cleared.
- 08:31:13 [fsasaki]
- ... we want extension to clreq, some editors may have opinions but not expressed on github
- 08:31:35 [fsasaki]
- ... some parts are not done, we want to extend the sections in november
- 08:32:10 [fsasaki]
- ... we should have a gap document for clreq
- 08:32:45 [fsasaki]
- richard: does it make sense to work on gap document at the same time or should we finish clreq first?
- 08:33:20 [fsasaki]
- addison: with jlreq document experience, I think having a gap document helps
- 08:34:06 [fsasaki]
- ... helpful to produce a complete as possible set of clreq requirements, we can use that to produce gap document(s)
- 08:34:29 [fsasaki]
- richard: bobby has some specific issues they like to have addressed soon
- 08:34:53 [fsasaki]
- addison: clreq describes things that you like to get done?
- 08:34:55 [fsasaki]
- bobby: yes
- 08:35:04 [fsasaki]
- addison: don't think we need a formal doc to do that
- 08:35:41 [fsasaki]
- discussion on how to have the list of gap filling in clreq
- 08:36:32 [fsasaki]
- richard: a gap document would be helpful, just wondering if it would take a lot longer
- 08:36:51 [fsasaki]
- addison: do you have one example?
- 08:36:55 [fsasaki]
- richard: font fallback
- 08:37:17 [fsasaki]
- addison: if we could produce a list of specific requests we could produce issues
- 08:37:39 [fsasaki]
- richard: the gap document would say: this is what currently happens. could be in the issue but can be a lot of text
- 08:38:00 [fsasaki]
- ... e.g. "safari does this ..."
- 08:38:22 [fsasaki]
- addison: can be a living doc as the discussion goes on
- 08:38:48 [fsasaki]
- ... worried that if we build one gap doc it will take time. we are not progressing clreq
- 08:39:12 [fsasaki]
- ... on font fallback: that discussion will be fairly mature in the beginning
- 08:40:16 [fsasaki]
- ... other items will need more documentation work
- 08:40:53 [fsasaki]
- myles: CSS group is very interested in supporting chinese text
- 08:41:22 [fsasaki]
- ... if we in CSS get things wrong, some items may be more important than others
- 08:41:40 [fsasaki]
- ... would be good to know what to focus on
- 08:42:18 [fsasaki]
- richard: for that it would be good to structure the items
- 08:42:27 [fsasaki]
- myles: a mail would be good for me to start with
- 08:42:43 [fsasaki]
- bobby: I should list the issues I wrote last year / this year
- 08:43:10 [fsasaki]
- ... e.g. text area topic - kojii is working on that already
- 08:43:27 [bobbytung]
- bobbytung has joined #i18n
- 08:43:51 [fsasaki]
- discussion on how to structure the discussion
- 08:45:06 [fsasaki]
- myles: happy to help, to put together what CSS needs = turning i18n group outcomes into input to CSS WG
- 08:45:33 [fsasaki]
- Chunming: we have layout document for many languages
- 08:45:36 [angel]
- rrsagent, draft minutes
- 08:45:36 [RRSAgent]
- I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2016/09/22-i18n-minutes.html angel
- 08:46:22 [fsasaki]
- ... programmers who want to follow clreq need examples. general content creator wants to know how to write the CSS style rules
- 08:46:36 [fsasaki]
- ... this is different than gap analysis
- 08:47:05 [fsasaki]
- ... another layer of work - collection of best practices that could be met by current web tech
- 08:47:22 [fsasaki]
- ... not sure if this has been done by other layout docs, e.g. latin
- 08:47:39 [fsasaki]
- addison: jlreq wrote a nearly perfect model on how japanese print publication works
- 08:47:55 [fsasaki]
- ... you then could write an authoring guide for CSS
- 08:48:13 [fsasaki]
- ... in some cases there are gaps
- 08:48:36 [fsasaki]
- ... if we do the same with clreq, it would say: here is a description how the layout works
- 08:48:54 [fsasaki]
- ... then e.g. you say: justification works like this: ...
- 08:49:24 [fsasaki]
- ... in other areas, e.g. ruby, we had a long discussion on how to do this and then how to close gaps
- 08:49:32 [r12a]
- https://www.w3.org/TR/ruby-use-cases/
- 08:50:08 [fsasaki]
- .... that is normal process: people say "I can't do ...". Then we say "describe what you want to do". Then we may have more keywords in CSS or s.t. else
- 08:50:54 [fsasaki]
- myles: a web author wants to know: "what do I need to do to make ruby happen?"
- 08:51:17 [fsasaki]
- ... in some cases there is a simple answer, in others it is more complex, e.g. a list of properties
- 08:51:38 [fsasaki]
- ... I have not seen such docs by W3C, but in other places (blog posts ...) by industry
- 08:52:04 [RRSAgent]
- I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2016/09/22-i18n-minutes.html addison
- 08:52:25 [fsasaki]
- richard: for ruby, we created a WG note that showed all that stuff, on an adhoc basis
- 08:52:40 [fsasaki]
- ... we just need to keep track of things
- 08:53:05 [fsasaki]
- addison: not loose track of being able to finish work
- 08:54:33 [fsasaki]
- chunming: for clreq we will continue maintenance
- 08:54:45 [fsasaki]
- ... not sure if we want to publish a snapshot of clreq every year?
- 08:55:13 [fsasaki]
- richard: we did not publish since simplified chinese had not been reviewed
- 08:55:57 [fsasaki]
- ... I propose a different way: we have echidna , so as soon as there is a github commit the TR version is updated automatically
- 08:56:07 [fsasaki]
- ... I recently ported jlreq into respec
- 08:56:42 [fsasaki]
- ... for jlreq I decided to have two documents, you can still have parallel comparison
- 08:57:03 [fsasaki]
- ... they don't we split clreq into three docs: traditional chinese, simplified, english
- 08:57:15 [fsasaki]
- s/they/why/
- 08:57:49 [fsasaki]
- ... at the moment we cannot publish anything because different progress
- 08:58:10 [fsasaki]
- angel: how do you synchronize?
- 08:58:14 [fsasaki]
- richard: manually

- fsasaki_ has joined #i18n
- 09:01:01 [fsasaki_]
- chunming: all issues may be discussed in chinese
- 09:01:31 [fsasaki_]
- ... I'd suggest to have both in same doc, since english doc will be a bit later.
- 09:02:35 [fsasaki_]
- angel: simplified chinese editor is not so familiar with github, so my team did significant efforts to back her up
- 09:03:06 [fsasaki_]
- addison: can we mark what is out of sync?
- 09:03:13 [fsasaki_]
- richard: with CSS classes
- 09:04:07 [fsasaki_]
- addison: with echidna we can have publish a draft as push
- 09:04:29 [fsasaki_]
- richard: with separate documents you have to do more review
- 09:05:07 [fsasaki_]
- ... we should agree that we publish one doc with three languages and make clear that they don't always say the same thing
- 09:05:11 [fsasaki_]
- ... or that we publish three docs
- 09:05:37 [fsasaki]
- chunming: currently we only have 30+ issue open, not big issues
- 09:06:06 [fsasaki]
- ... we just need to go through open issues and see what we fix before we publish
- 09:07:04 [fsasaki]
- chunming: I see two ways to publish: 1) english doc, then two separate chinese docs 2) have one page with three languages referenced
- 09:07:08 [Francesco]
- Francesco has joined #i18n
- 09:07:22 [fsasaki]
- .. for our audience it is preferred to have one doc
- 09:07:42 [fsasaki]
- ... for publishing process, currently we need to have editors keep consistency manually
- 09:07:58 [fsasaki]
- ... editors need to have some effort to assure consistency
- 09:08:03 [fsasaki]
- ... I would prefer to publish one doc
- 09:08:04 [fsasaki]
- q+
- 09:08:22 [fsasaki]
- chunming: one doc would be more useful to the audience to follow discussion
- 09:08:32 [fsasaki]
- myles: who is audience?
- 09:08:47 [fsasaki]
- chunming: digital publishing / web site content providers in china
- 09:08:59 [najib]
- najib has joined #i18n
- 09:08:59 [fsasaki]
- ... ebook providers on mobile phones
- 09:09:11 [fsasaki]
- ... browser providers, like myles
- 09:09:24 [fsasaki]
- richard: CSS and similar WGs
- 09:10:36 [fsasaki]
- chunming: would be good to have a best practices doc on how to follow requirement. propose to keep this in one doc so that this audience has a clear understanding of requirements
- 09:11:04 [fsasaki]
- richard: we have gone over a year without update, you seem to agree to publish rather soon?
- 09:11:13 [fsasaki]
- chunming: yes
- 09:11:49 [chunming]
- chunming has joined #i18n
- 09:12:06 [fsasaki]
- angel: I see concerns from chunming. if we spit into three, we may have problems with patent policy
- 09:12:18 [chunming]
- rrsagent, draft minutes
- 09:12:18 [RRSAgent]
- I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2016/09/22-i18n-minutes.html chunming
- 09:12:19 [fsasaki]
- ... see jlreq: japanese standards go first
- 09:12:55 [fsasaki]
- .... if people look for original language doc and try to make a national standard, they have an issue
- 09:13:07 [fsasaki]
- ... we try to avoid the possible harmonization problem for the future
- 09:13:38 [fsasaki]
- richard: the patent policy does not apply, since the docs are not on the rec track
- 09:13:53 [fsasaki]
- angel: yes, but there are restrictions
- 09:14:21 [najib]
- present+ Najib
- 09:14:28 [fsasaki]
- ... only english is authoritive, the other versions should go through translation process which is very complex
- 09:14:43 [fsasaki]
- angel: in jlreq case, there was national standard
- 09:14:49 [fsasaki]
- JIS 4051
- 09:15:12 [fsasaki]
- angel: our people may be hesitant if English doc is authoritive
- 09:16:46 [fsasaki]
- addison: we want to document as good as possible how chinese works so that the technology works
- 09:17:07 [fsasaki]
- ... point of this is to be descriptive, not normative, so that we can build other standards out of that
- 09:17:19 [fsasaki]
- richard: we have resolved to keep the three languages together
- 09:17:21 [fsasaki]
- angel: yes
- 09:17:23 [fsasaki]
- q-
- 09:18:11 [fsasaki]
- richard: will set up clreq to publish with echidna in TR space
- 09:18:23 [fsasaki]
- ... will take an action to prepare that
- 09:18:27 [RRSAgent]
- I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2016/09/22-i18n-minutes.html addison
- 09:19:22 [fsasaki]
- richard: tibetan has been ready for publishing for a year, want to discuss that
- 09:19:52 [angel]
- s/japanese standards/japanese national standards
- 09:19:55 [fsasaki]
- chunming: we set up the task force and talked about how we organise this. china government does not want to split this language, china is multi ethnic nation
- 09:20:36 [fsasaki]
- chunming: if we want to do this in china, and get more input from experts, then we keep document creation in the layout task force
- 09:20:51 [fsasaki]
- ... we exchanged the idea with government agency, so I don't want this to be changed
- 09:21:00 [angel]
- s/our people/Chinese Chinese layout people who finally realize the value of such a document and decide to make a version of their naitonal standard out of it
- 09:21:19 [fsasaki]
- ... another example: korea is used in china in some provinces
- 09:21:30 [fsasaki]
- ... that is ok, there is klreq already
- 09:22:03 [fsasaki]
- ... for mongolian, AFAIK, chinese scholars have good links
- 09:22:16 [fsasaki]
- richard: there is no mongolian task force, just a mailing list
- 09:22:32 [fsasaki]
- ... there is two problems: first, tibetan is not just a chinese language
- 09:22:50 [fsasaki]
- ... if I talk to people outside china, people have resistance to participate
- 09:23:16 [fsasaki]
- ... as W3C we have to take a global point of view. Tibetan is spoken in china but also in other countries
- 09:23:25 [fsasaki]
- ... the other issue is: nothing is happening
- 09:23:45 [fsasaki]
- ... we cannot move requirements forward without regular meetings
- 09:24:09 [fsasaki]
- ... we did have the meetings for jlreq and now for alreq
- 09:24:21 [fsasaki]
- ... so asking: would it make sense to have a task force for tibetan?
- 09:24:55 [fsasaki]
- angel: we want to avoid unnecessary tension
- 09:25:45 [fsasaki]
- ... would be good to have a neutral home
- 09:26:14 [fsasaki]
- addison: other task forces are organized on a per language basis.
- 09:26:40 [fsasaki]
- ... task force is not a language of a particular place
- 09:27:10 [fsasaki]
- ... a task force does not say: the language goes with a certain state
- 09:28:44 [fsasaki]
- chunming: we want to collect information of layout from different languages and want to publish that as different documents
- 09:28:53 [fsasaki]
- ... the only concern is about organising the work
- 09:29:03 [fsasaki]
- ... you are right, tlreq is not pushing fast
- 09:30:22 [fsasaki]
- ... before last tpac, our contact was one professor in mongolian univ.
- 09:30:29 [fsasaki]
- ... now seems not be very active
- 09:30:45 [fsasaki]
- ... but some engineers from our members show interest in mongolian
- 09:30:59 [fsasaki]
- ... currently we don't have first draft, just email discussion
- 09:31:11 [fsasaki]
- richard: email discussion is mostly on unicode topics
- 09:32:59 [fsasaki]
- angel: clreq is all fine, chinese can mean mandarin. for us chinese means all the languages spoken in china. we can change the chinese title into saying: mandarin requirements.
- 09:33:21 [fsasaki]
- ... then these people don't have to join the chinese task force

- s/mandarin/hanzu/
- 09:34:09 [fsasaki]
- s/requirements/requirements (in chinese title)/
- 09:34:50 [fsasaki]
- angel: get another task force to join and change the name of this task force
- 09:35:45 [angel]
- s/hanzu/hanzi
- 09:35:57 [fsasaki]
- bobby: could it be possible to share some infos between docs?
- 09:36:04 [fsasaki]
- addison: I thought we produce separate docs?
- 09:36:51 [fsasaki]
- agreement from the room
- 09:37:34 [fsasaki]
- angel: goal to close all issues by the end of this year
- 09:37:36 [fsasaki]
- bobby: agree
- 09:38:15 [fsasaki]
- chunming: can we push for official clreq by end of this year?
- 09:38:23 [fsasaki]
- richard: if you tell us that the doc is complete, sure
- 09:38:30 [fsasaki]
- angel: should this be a living doc?
- 09:38:55 [fsasaki]
- addison: we can publish drafts again and again, and then a note
- 09:39:14 [fsasaki]
- ... a new note then would be version two, etc.
- 09:40:40 [fsasaki]
- discussion on tibetan
- 09:40:59 [fsasaki]
- addison: in jlreq, mixed layouts was important topic
- 09:42:22 [fsasaki]
- chunming: status report of tibetan
- 09:42:31 [fsasaki]
- ... offline mail discussion, does not reflect back to github
- 09:42:44 [fsasaki]
- ... we found people working in publishing house for tibetan content
- 09:42:55 [fsasaki]
- ... we got support of national standards WG in china
- 09:42:58 [r12a]
- http://w3c.github.io/tlreq/
- 09:43:08 [fsasaki]
- ... also from @@@ university
- 09:43:15 [angel]
- s/@@/Lasa
- 09:43:24 [fsasaki]
- ... those people are happy to make review of document
- 09:44:03 [fsasaki]
- ... also found a publishing house in china and china mobile, experts that are happy to contribute
- 09:44:43 [fsasaki]
- ... that is human resource status. Bottleneck is me - we need to set up those people, organize f2f meetings
- 09:44:56 [fsasaki]
- ... so that we can build trust and relationships with them
- 09:45:22 [fsasaki]
- ... according to our previous schedule I am happy to held f2f after this TPAC
- 09:45:54 [fsasaki]
- ... my target is to have first version reflect back to w3c github, open to public document
- 09:46:18 [fsasaki]
- richard: after last TPAC we agreed that I update doc, you were to translate it and publish as FWPD
- 09:46:30 [fsasaki]
- ... that doc is ready in english, then needs translation
- 09:46:41 [fsasaki]
- ... they may change it completely, but good to have s.t. to look at
- 09:46:55 [fsasaki]
- chunming: one of my students is working on translation
- 09:47:02 [fsasaki]
- ... need to update it back to html
- 09:47:07 [fsasaki]
- richard: can I help?
- 09:47:17 [fsasaki]
- chunming: I can do it asap
- 09:47:51 [fsasaki]
- angel: similar issue like with simplified chinese - editor works in work
- 09:48:22 [angel]
- s/works in work/ not familar with github
- 09:48:22 [fsasaki]
- addison: concerns about separate work modes.
- 09:48:55 [fsasaki]
- chunming: HTML is not a problem. we want to identify right person to take the editor role.
- 09:49:07 [fsasaki]
- ... they should be familiar with github, html etc.
- 09:49:47 [fsasaki]
- ... for tlreq, there is english and chinese, need to update to make it english - chinese version on github
- 09:50:09 [fsasaki]
- ... chunming we have f2f meeting with editors / reviewers, so that they can have f2f discussion on each item
- 09:50:19 [fsasaki]
- ... after that we can reach to first public WD
- 09:50:51 [fsasaki]
- richard: I just want to make publication asap. Is discussion necessary before publication?
- 09:51:22 [fsasaki]
- chunming: want to build trust and a relationship with editors, will set up offline f2f, what the next steps are
- 09:51:34 [fsasaki]
- ... want to have whole day f2f meeting to invite some reviewers
- 09:51:58 [fsasaki]
- ... to give a full review of current version, to make sure a more reliable version is released
- 09:52:36 [fsasaki]

- richard: (introducing topic)
- 10:21:57 [addison]
- ... the paragraph direction of the string as a whole
- 10:22:11 [addison]
- ... reason that complex is that base direction isn't expressed int he string
- 10:22:17 [addison]
- ... might be expressed in the htnml document
- 10:22:25 [addison]
- ... like in a form
- 10:22:32 [addison]
- ... going to be submitted, etc.
- 10:22:44 [addison]
- ... text would go from rtl because html file says dir=rtl
- 10:22:51 [addison]
- ... looks rtl oriented because of that
- 10:23:00 [addison]
- ... but when typing in english document
- 10:23:10 [fsasaki]
- s/htnml/html/
- 10:23:11 [addison]
- ... doesn't look right, so user sets direction on form element
- 10:23:21 [addison]
- ... surrounding "stuff" contains the knowledge
- 10:23:25 [addison]
- ... string doesn't encode it
- 10:23:35 [addison]
- ... and associate it in some way with the string
- 10:23:45 [addison]
- ... so consumer can apply correct direction
- 10:23:54 [addison]
- ... how do we do that association
- 10:24:05 [addison]
- ... direction property in an annotation
- 10:24:21 [addison]
- ... people like tantek don't like that direction
- 10:28:11 [addison]
- addison: strings want to carry metadata (dir and lang)
- 10:28:26 [addison]
- richard: producers == people putting text into a json string
- 10:28:34 [addison]
- ... consumer == people reading the json

- 10:29:17 [addison]
- richard: 3 basic approaches
- 10:29:22 [addison]
- ... 1. first strong
- 10:29:29 [addison]
- .... 2. insert markers into string
- 10:29:35 [addison]
- ... 3. property that comes with property
- 10:29:44 [addison]
- richard: look at storing base direction
- 10:50:09 [Rebeca]
- Rebeca has joined #i18n
- 10:59:34 [fsasaki]
