#199 - whitespace between prolog and first rule. No further discussion. Michael will merge
ACTION: michael to merge #199
#202 - Unicode version. Need to review changes
To be reviewed next meeting
#236 - version number changes.
Norm: grammars without versions assume 1.0 - consensus to permit 'use any you like'
Michael: suggestion 'It is implementation-defined what version shall be used.'
Steven: what objection to using the latest version?
Michael: implemntation-defined
<john> s/implemnation/implementation/
Michael: what about the 'stable'/quality version?
Agreed: move to implementation-defined rather than default 1.0. Implementations can configure.
ACTION: Norm to draft a PR to define response in the spec. e.g. unrecognised, different options for choice of which version to be used.
JimS: Has the format of the version string been altered? Rather is the prolog defined finally.
Norm: a conforming 1.0 implementation must support a prolog
Reminder - the version is a QuotedString
#192 Normalizing line endings in input
See https://
Steven: an implementation might not know where the input comes from.
Norm: We should do the same as XML in input normalisation - CR/LF -> LF
Michael: Say nothing, or declare that implementations may permit (user-option) suspension of such normalization
norm: Worth making the deployment of iXML grammars more robust across platforms
Lots of discussion about the possibilities, and possible benefits and costs to user
ACTION: Norm to draft a section of the spec. to cover this topic.
