Info Share

david: latest release of java11 has shifted from unicode 8 to unicode 10

richard: will send email, but looking gap analysis templates
... and contents listing
... and making improvements
... renaming things, like a section called 'ruby' to call 'inline annotations and notes' so more general
... more anon
... no pointer yet

RADAR and Active Work Review

http://w3c.github.io/i18n-activity/projects/

richard: still hopeful of an african group (or two)
... many latin languages or overtype scripts

<scribe> ... ongoing

richard: created a lao layout requirements document
... only had a gap analysis doc

(checks if uploaded....)

richard: started put requirements in gap analysis, but too cumbersome

<r12a> https://w3c.github.io/sealreq/lao/

<r12a> https://w3c.github.io/sealreq/gap-analysis/laoo-gap.html

richard: adding some stuff to gap analysis docs
... here's the lao gap analysis

<r12a> https://w3c.github.io/sealreq/gap-analysis/laoo-gap.html#linebreak

richard: developing theme
... figuring out ways of doing this stuff
... since new year florian released tests of zero width joiner
... zero-width non-joiner not only depends on font but also on base direction = rtl

(addison begs a pointer)

String-Meta

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/member-i18n-core/2019Jan/0006.html

richard: think section 1 is delicious
... best practices section was kind of hard to read
... needs to be shorter and more direct

هاري بوتر وحجر الفيلسوف (Harry Potter Book 1)

addison: will search for an english in the middle example

richard: can make suggestions on what to move where

richard to start now and addison to follow

Charmod-Norm

jck: some good news
... all the way through it
... very close to diminishing returns
... main piece is that having a document of that length to describe string matching is kind of scary
