[Reading the proposed text]

Erik: In the example at the end, you say it gets displayed as a text

Steven: Yes, the type of the data decides.

Erik: When did we add HTTPIRI and Absolute IRI?

Steven: Quite a long time ago, it allows you to check the syntax of a URI

Alain: How does SVG as data work?

Steven: Third star - the data is the data to be rendered; then with a mediatype.

ACTION: Steven to supply SVG example

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2025Aug/0007.html

Steven: What to do when failing to dereference a URI
… I believe it should be nonfatal

Erik: I agree, though submit-error is odd

Steven: It's what we use for instance
… I'm happy to invent a new error , eg xforms-link-warning

Erik: It is convenient that submit-error already exists, it's just not the right name...

Steven: Let's have time to think it over, and discuss again next time.

AOB

Steven: Did you see the Python Documentary?

Steven: The credit card mails were just for information; I'm not suggesting any changes

Steven: I'm at XML Summer School, so next meeting 26 September.
