Topic: Status Reports
15:01:32 [john]
bethan: probably better to work on debugging & support tools rather than another implementation
15:03:32 [john]
frederik: Python can link to C so it could be linked from my implementation
15:05:59 [john]
Frederik: fixed a bug David reported
15:06:22 [john]
Frederik: the implementation does renaming
15:07:26 [john]
steven: 14th March MarkupUK deadline - thinking of a paper on mudularisation issues
15:07:42 [john]
s/mudularisation/modularisation/
15:08:37 [john]
Topic: Ambiguity utility
15:10:01 [john]
Frederik: Can be useful in cases such as catchall e.g. protocol decoding. Could be solved by the not or the exclusion operator
15:10:44 [john]
Frederik: adding cost to the tree and choose the lowest cost route among the possible trees.
15:12:02 [john]
Frederik: do the pruning during the serialisation, rather than during the parse
15:17:28 [john]
Norm: CoffeePot can show the acyclic graph for ambiguous solutions

steven: we should look at this area on the backburner and possible papers
15:27:48 [john]
Topic: Use pragmas for the prolog?
15:28:26 [john]
Bethan: we have consensu on requirements 1-5 of the docuemtn
15:28:26 [john]
https://github.com/invisibleXML/ixml/blob/master/proposals/pragma_req.md
15:28:44 [john]
s/consensu/consensus/
15:30:54 [john]
Discussion on Items 6 & 7. Consensus on 6 "It should be straightforward for processors to ignore pragmas they do
15:30:54 [john]
not recognize."
15:31:15 [john]
Consensus on 7: "Processors must be able to determine unambiguously whether they
15:31:15 [john]
recognize a given pragma or not"
15:33:19 [john]
Item 8 "A pragma must be distinguishable as such from all other grammar
15:33:19 [john]
constructs, even if the processor in question does not recognize the
15:33:19 [john]
specific pragma." - some discussion about presence in the XML and the readability of the presence of a pragma

Steven: I feel strongly that the pragma is purely for the processor and not part of iXML
15:34:53 [john]
s/docuemtn/document/
15:38:39 [john]
The argument is about whether iXML should support attachment location for prgamas within its definition.

15:47:28 [john]
Item 8 is accepted
15:53:25 [john]
norm: More discussion on email is probably warranted
