Reminder, no call next week

Steven: No call next week.

The Type Property

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2019Jan/0007

Steven: Any objection to using XDM?

Erik: That's how we do it.

Steven: And the second part of the question?

Erik: Its the type of a value, not of a structured value.

Steven: OK.

<scribe> ACTION: Steven to reword the Type MIP to use XDM

<trackbot> Created ACTION-2212 - Reword the type mip to use xdm [on Steven Pemberton - due 2019-01-23].

ACTION-2211: Redefine terms via xdm instead of xpath[1, 2]

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2019Jan/0009

Steven: [motivates the email]

Erik: Rewriting the function element is difficult
... we could have used a new syntax, but there was already a syntax in XPath 2, so we used that.
... and so the semantics were already in XPath 2
... it is really designed to support XPath 2
... We could move the semantics to the Expression Module

Steven: That's what was moving towards myself.
... I'll investigate

Erik: For part 2
... we want to say how types are communicated to the expression language

Steven: It looks overspecified to my eye, but I'm not sure.

Erik: Give me some more time to look at it.

Steven: I'll keep it for next time.

Upload

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2019Jan/0012.html

Erik: No, that wouldn't work.

Steven: Do you implement this use-case?

Erik: Not with upload

Steven: With anything?

Erik: We use the parse() function for some things

Steven: Ugh.

<ebruchez> https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions-30/#func-parse-xml

Steven: I'm going to think about this then, and make a proposal in that case.

AOB

[None]

Steven: Speak in two weeks.
