13:55:48 <Steven> Topic: Role transition
13:56:03 <Steven> Steven: The transition of role was OK'd yesterday
13:56:16 <Steven> ... for some reason it didn't get copied to chairs or XHTML2
13:56:27 <Steven> ... I'll check with Ralph
13:57:26 <Steven> ... but I assume we can just proceed
13:57:50 <Steven> Topic: 4 PERs

14:00:52 <Steven> Topic: Examples on Wiki
14:01:11 <Steven> Gregory: I have been putting examples on the wiki, and it seems like it should be organised by module
14:01:51 <Steven> ... just to let people know that I have been setting up this way
14:03:05 <ShaneM> http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/xhtml2/wiki/XHTML2/i18n
14:06:06 <Steven> Steven: You use Unicode characters instead of the real characters
14:06:26 <Steven> Gregory: I prefer it that way for my accessibility software
14:06:54 <Steven> Steven: You don't need to have separate URLs for the different press releases; that's the point of hreflang (or one of them at least)

14:18:30 <Steven> rules.

14:18:42 <Steven> Steven: That's all been done in RDFa

14:20:54 <trackbot> ACTION-64 Change CURIE spec to make the prefix mechanism the responsibility of the host language closed
14:21:30 <Steven> shane: I'm still on action 73; the RDF is tricky, but I'll have it done today
14:21:38 <Steven> Roland: Talking of CURIEs
14:21:48 <Steven> ... there was the guy who wasn't happy
14:22:07 <Steven> ... did we talk to the other RDFa people about sending a comment to OWL?
14:22:45 <Steven> Shane: I sent a request, didn't hear anything back
14:23:00 <Steven> Steven: Is there a call tomorrow?

14:25:16 <Steven> Topic: Three missing elements in B. Element prohibitions
14:25:21 <Roland> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-html-editor/2009AprJun/0010.html

14:31:03 <Steven> Steven: I have never understood this restriction
14:31:56 <Steven> ... I think of pre as keeping whitespace and newlines, and using a fixed width font
14:32:43 <Steven> ... I'm pretty sure that XHTML2 doesn't have this restriction
14:32:53 <Steven> ... but that's not to the point of this person's comment
14:32:59 <Steven> ... which looks like it is right
14:33:06 <Steven> ... that the DTD and the text disagree
14:34:27 <Steven> Steven: HTML4 says this - <!ENTITY % pre.exclusion "IMG|OBJECT|BIG|SMALL|SUB|SUP">
14:34:49 <Steven> http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/sgml/dtd.html#pre.exclusion
14:36:37 <Steven> Shane; Let's add it to the text, as a clarification
14:36:50 <Steven> ... the DTD is correct
14:36:59 <Steven> ... the text only refers to the strict version
14:38:31 <Steven> Steven: I have already asked for the transition, so I feel a bit shaky about making this change now
14:38:49 <Steven> Roland: Then we put it in the pipeline for the next version, and reply to this guy that he is right
14:40:49 <Steven> http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/2009/REC-xhtml1-20090320-errata
14:40:59 <Steven> Steven: We can add it there
14:41:32 <Roland> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-html-editor/2009AprJun/0015.html
14:41:50 <Steven> Topic: White space handline in XHTML 1.0
14:42:35 <Steven> Steven: What's up
14:42:44 <Steven> Shane: XML defines our shitespace handling
14:42:48 <Steven> Steven: Right
14:42:57 <Steven> ... so we just have to tell him that
14:43:01 <Steven> s/shite/white
14:43:21 <Steven> Shane: We defer to XML for input and CSS for output
14:43:25 <Steven> Steven: Exactly right
14:43:39 <Steven> Topic: AOB
14:44:25 <Steven> Steven: I'm not here next week
14:44:44 <Steven> ... I'll ping Ralph on the transition
14:44:55 <ShaneM> I have defined a new Container role-properties in the xhtml vocab document.  it contains all of the values directly or indirectly
