<tovey-walsh> Can't we have a meeting without Steven?

It's not so much the Stevenness as the knowing-the-password-ness of it

<norm> Oh, I can setup another link if that's all we need

<norm> Voila: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/89936484392?pwd=eG5yalBXR2dsaDNJZWlpMnB3SUJDZz09

OK. I'll send email with that to the list, for the record.

<norm> Date: 2022-11-15

Action to JL has been done, at least in part.

Reduced Earley items by 40% but gave a 5x speedup.

Actions to Norm: all done; those that affect normative text awaiting final approval.

Status of implementations

JL has issued a 1.1 version. There was a bug in quoted-strings in character sets, which has now been fixed.

He also now has a pretty-printer. Used in Steven's tutorial.

Joel's implementation is far enough along to be mentioned on the page.

ACTION: Joel to send details of his implementation to Norm, Norm to put it on the page.

JL noted the ixml-related issue in the QT4 work.

ACTION: msm to suggest additional function signatures if desirable.

ACTION: Norm to update free-standing document on EBNF to BNF translation (PR #146)

<Github> https://github.com/invisibleXML/ixml/pull/146 : First draft of EBNF to BNF conversion document

Issue #139 Sample grammars for IRIs and URIs

Issue #137 Document the XML tag set of ixml grammars

<Github> https://github.com/invisibleXML/ixml/issues/137 : We should document the XML tag set that results from parsing an ixml grammar with the ixml specification grammar

<mjoel> On https://www.w3.org/community/ixml/ it states that meetings are at 14:00 UTC. Is the new time fixed at 15:00? If so we should update that page. Also, it mentions Google Meet. Is today's Zoom a one-shot deal?

ACTION: Norm to prototype an alphabetic reference list of elements in the vxml vocabulary, in XHTML, to serve as a basis for discussion.

<norm> The zoom is a one-off, only Steven could start the Google meet

Next meeting

ACTION: SP to edit group page to say we meet at 15:00 UTC (during the winter, at least).
