action-1152?

addison: Working on wiki pages.
action-1153?
<trackbot> action-1153: John Klensin to Review wot-discovery and our comment #1522 for service name restrictions in iana -- due 2022-05-26 -- OPEN
JcK: Goose chase led to RFC 6635 about service names, "ldh", letters, case-insens, hyphen, digits.
… So will reject. Serious arguments about protocol arguments, but will probably lead to nothing.
addison: We should probably go to WoT and say that the state of the world is LDH tokens.
JcK: Might also mention that there is a 15-char restriction.
addison: So action-1153 is done.
ACTION: addison: update wot-discovery our #1522
<trackbot> Created ACTION-1156 - Update wot-discovery our #1522 [on Addison Phillips - due 2022-06-09].
JcK: I can find the exact RFC references.
action-1154?
<trackbot> action-1154: Fuqiao Xue to Look into unicode support in ecma-262 as referenced by wot-description -- due 2022-06-02 -- OPEN
xfq_: Did some research. About regular expressions.
… Can set a U-flag on regex to allow Unicode support. Affects negated character classes, e.g.
… Also affects character class escapes, such as what is whitespace.
… A few things I don't know if they are a problem:
… The I-flag is for case-insensitive.
… With I + U, all chars are case-folded according to simple Unicode case folding.
… Regex cannot match a grapheme cluster, only a code point. E.g., a single "." matches a code point, such as a combining mark.

addison: We can look at it more deeply in terms of recommendations to spec writers.
addison: let's close action-1154. I don't expect we will make more comments.

request to make 'jlreq-d' repository for so-called JDLreq note
<addison> https://
atsushi: I reported about next edition from jlreq task force. The TF decided to have a new document.
… Still discussiong the title.
… But would already like to have a new repository.
… The -d refers to "digital".
addison: So developed in parallel to jlreq?
atsushi: Yes.
addison: Wondering about the name...
atsushi: The d was originally digital age, but some members thought there could be more meaning to it.
… Still wondering about the longer, full title.
addison: Maybe choose a better shortname that is more helpful than just "d".
ACTION: atsushi: create jlreq-d repo
<trackbot> Created ACTION-1157 - Create jlreq-d repo [on Atsushi Shimono - due 2022-06-09].
Manifest translations (review)
<addison> https://
<addison> https://
addison: About translating manifests in webapps. It has a number of flaws.
<xfq_> W3C
<xfq_> Developing Localizable Manifests
addison: They are adding a block to add translations for specific items, but I think it can't work. It means the translations have to match the order and count of items, because there is no link between them.
… And JSON libraries can reorder the JSON and break the translations.
<xfq_> https://
xfq_: I looked at it and my original issue was about language and direction metadata.
addison: This document ignores that issue.
ACTION: addison: create issues against WICG/manifest-incubations in our repo for review
<trackbot> Created ACTION-1158 - Create issues against wicg/manifest-incubations in our repo for review [on Addison Phillips - due 2022-06-09].
addison: I'll make some issues for us to discuss next week.
… And send them an email.
<addison> https://
xfq_: I added the i18n-tracker label. I don't know which spec this belongs to.
… But it seems i18n-related.
addison: Word boundaries.
… Reasonable that we track it. Not sure if we take any action.
AOB?
WebGPU
xfq_: About WebGPU
<xfq_> https://
xfq_: Issue about direction metadata for messages.
… They decided to add lang & dir to all returned strings.
… If there is no translation, it will return English.
… And it could mention that the translation is missing.
… It is not in spec yet.
addison: Is it written that the default language is English?
… Could be "an appropriate default".
atsushi: Some specific implementations could use only one language.
<xfq_> https://
atsushi: A Russian browser might only have russian, e.g.
xfq_: ^^ is our current guidance.
xfq_: I will reply to them.
Bert: regrets from me for next 2 weeks.
