What does that mean? 14:19:21 r12a: Naming w3C as a source doesn't seem like a problem. 14:19:35 addison: Who would we reply to? 14:19:59 r12a: it is only a change proposal for unicode. 14:20:14 addison: no objection to it coming from us or them. 14:20:28 addison: What value does the CITC add? 14:21:00 r12a: Having both orgs would be useful for the Japanese market 14:21:27 s/CITC/CITPC (Coded character-sets Information Technology Promotion Council)/ 14:21:33 atsushi: CITPC has many companies as members, so this could be a Japanese side issue. 14:22:29 r12a: Kida-San thinks it would be good to be formally reviewed and also by the CLReq people. 14:22:45 action: richard: send UAX50 change request document for review by WG 14:22:46 Created ACTION-1071 - Send uax50 change request document for review by wg [on Richard Ishida - due 2021-09-09]. 14:22:53 r12a: everyone look at it when I send it, please. 14:23:54 xfq: has discussed some changes in this request. e.g. full width semi-colon. Main difference is fallback in simplified Chinese 14:24:42 xfq: This mainly a problem of mapping to the Adobe Japan character collection. People generally agree with the changes, but this in not the final draft. 14:25:08 xfq: will share the final draft. This hasn't been shared with JLReq 14:25:27 addison: it would be good if it is shared. 14:25:42 https://github.com/CITPCSHARE/UAX50/wiki/Request-to-revise-UAX-50-for-the-harmonization-with-Adobe-Japan1 14:26:03 atsushi: We need to look at conflict between Chinese and Japanese 14:26:17 action: xfq: send feedback from clreq to jlreq on UAX50 proposed changes 14:26:17 Created ACTION-1072 - Send feedback from clreq to jlreq on uax50 proposed changes [on Fuqiao Xue - due 2021-09-09]. 14:26:58 r12a: Postioning it as a W3C and CITPC, can Atsushi take the lead? 14:27:17 atsushi: I will, but may need some assistance 14:27:34 action: atsushi: coordinate CITPC and W3C publication of UAX50 change request 14:27:35 Created ACTION-1073 - Coordinate citpc and w3c publication of uax50 change request [on Atsushi Shimono - due 2021-09-09]. 14:28:27 jck: If these are going in as comment notes. Why not both submit their own comments and say that they have noted the other ones? 14:29:06 addison: 1 formal request is needed. Whoever sends it, if we are sending, then we need to approve it. 14:29:45 addison: There is strength to a Japanese org sending it. UTC will look at the factual arguments, whatever the source. 14:30:01 jck: Agrees strongly 14:30:36 r12a: Head of CITPC is also prominent on JLReq 14:30:47 agenda? 14:30:53 addison: Anthing more on this issue? 14:31:08 zakim, take up agendum 5 14:31:08 agendum 5 -- HTML snapshot review -- taken up [from agendabot] 14:31:20 https://github.com/w3c/htmlwg/issues/17 14:31:28 addison: before TPAC talk about HTML Snapshot review 14:32:11 addison: this is the regular snapshot.

We should schedule another on Thursday for 2 hours 14:41:58 https://github.com/w3c/personalization-semantics/issues/144 14:42:13 addison: Do we need to meet with A11y and consider the issues first, particularly pictures as alternatives for words. 14:42:53 r12a: They aim to BLISS symbol numbers represent a concept but glyphs can be changed 14:43:46 https://github.com/w3c/personalization-semantics/issues/144 14:43:54 addison: Fine for replace a noun with a picture of a noun, some verbs are reasonably replaceable. Can you define a grammar for compositional elements. 14:44:17 r12a: only simple examples of composition given. 14:44:34 addison: grammar and directionality are not addressed. 14:45:15 addison: There was a working video at a TPAC several years ago. I'm still unclear about it. Was it too simplistic? 14:45:32 addison: They were doing it with a Bidi language. 14:45:53 [[ 14:45:57 Also, we have added a Hebrew example for symbols illustrating how to form a 14:45:58 conjugated term (see 14:45:58 https://raw.githack.com/w3c/personalization-semantics/edits07062020/content/index.html#symbol-explanation 14:45:59 ). 14:46:01 ]] 14:46:20 addison: People working on this are not linguists so may miss linguistic issues. 14:46:55 addison: When do the want to meet? 14:47:24 r12a: initially thought Mondays but then Tuesday was mentioned. 14:48:11 r12a: dates suggested were last month 14:48:36 r12a: 10am Boston so 14:00 UTC 14:48:48 addison: r12a, shall we go? 14:48:57 r12a: yes 14:49:12 addison: to respond to them. 14:49:18 action: addison: respond to personalization-semantics that we can meet the 13th at 1400Z 14:49:18 Created ACTION-1074 - Respond to personalization-semantics that we can meet the 13th at 1400z [on Addison Phillips - due 2021-09-09]. 14:50:14 addison: CSS would like us to see them.

Did you mean case conversion? 15:00:04 r12a: I don't think there is a difference by language? 15:00:22 addison: What about a string search that is language sensitive. 15:01:08 r12a: there are some features like ignoring accents. The thrust is you need to normalise and case fold 15:01:37 addison: In turkish you would lose linguistic information with a more promiscuous match. 15:02:13 addison: Language appropriate case folding could map by language. 15:03:24 addison: This is the purpose of CharMod, hence needing a document on searching strings and implementitions. 15:04:24 r12a: We are mathching user input against a values. Is this string matching or string searching. i.e do you want to know if 2 strings match. 15:05:25 addison: values should be filtered by substrings in the list. Then there are different to types of mathching e.g. accents kana/kana matching 15:05:58 addison: we are adding "beware of the complexity of searching". 15:06:50 addison: One working group in the past was working on Find. We poitned out many issues, unless it is purely string matching (maybe case insensitive). 15:07:13 r12a: complexity could come with an esset for example. 15:07:42 jck: this could be entering dangerous territory, whether ours or HTML's 15:07:57 r12a: We go for a permissive approach 15:08:14 jck: This could cause problems 15:08:55 jck: This was what early Unicode talked about string mathching after folding. 15:09:28 addison: User interaction will provide ??? 15:09:50 r12a: I've added custom smarter matched to Uniview 15:10:11 jck: that's a different matter to case folding 15:10:46 r12a: if you type in Benin, with an e acute, should that match the ASCII Benin 15:11:02 jck: forcing to ASCII is unreasonable 15:11:17 r12a: more likely the other way around 15:11:42 r12a: case folding is not a good place to start for string mathching 15:12:01 addison: for tokens it is fine 15:12:20 addison: that is the responsibilty of CharModNorm 15:12:45 jck: even for identifiers there are issue with case sensitive environments. 15:12:45 https://w3c.github.io/string-search/ 15:13:08 r12a: maybe case folding doesn't belong in this HTML spec 15:14:03 addison: In a find command, there is normally an option to be case insensitive, or not. But you might need to be language sensitive manner. 15:14:39 r12a: This is case mapping. You do the language tailoring for here. 15:16:04 addison: string search doc in the link above. It was moved out of Charmod to keep for later. This is an example of it is really hard to describe than it looks. We need to write clearer specs, so we can identify the problems. 15:16:27 jck: Clearer explanation of ??? would be very helpful. 15:16:53 addison: Original intent was to warn of the complexities. 15:17:12 r12a: does not think the Charmod Reference is useful. 15:18:08 r12a: We need a searching document to point people at. Following this discussion this is about case matching not case folding. We don't want them to case fold. 15:18:49 addison: It would be reasonable to have a case insensitve search, but warn of the challenges. 15:19:05 r12a: that's case mapping, not case folding 15:19:26 addison: it is case matching or caseless matching that we are interested in. 15:20:06 addison: Shall I remove the sentence about normalisation and case folding? 15:20:34 r12a: normalisation is important, but I think we should tale out case folding. 15:21:02 r12a: We may need to mention case equivalence 15:21:17 addison: I'll edit again for that. 15:21:36 r12a: I will review later 15:26:06 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2021/09/02-i18n-minutes.html addison 15:26:10 zakim, who is here? 15:26:10 Present: Addison, Fuqiao, Atsushi, David, Richard, JcK 15:26:13 On IRC I see JcK, David, RRSAgent, Zakim, addison, koji, astearns, hsivonen, cwilso, hadleybeeman, r12a, atsushi, Bert, florian, sangwhan, bigbluehat, Mek, agendabot, trackbot 15:26:19 zakim, bye 15:26:19 leaving.
