2/ Minutes of
last meeting read and agree proposed by John, seconded by
David.
3/ Review open
issues in the tracking report:
Tony noted that
items 14-17 are incorrectly color-coded (should be magenta/purple as they are
assigned to the editor)
[19]C
onsolidated attribute values list
Bryan's tests
were successful. This has been sent to Yves to incorporate in to the
XSD.
Vote to accept
option (2) as a valid solution. No opposition voiced. Motion
carried.
The remaining
issue is with mime types. Some discussion followed on whether to enumerate all
the mime types and sub-types in the XSD. Bryan offered to look at whether we
could compose the XSD to cover the existing MIME types and sub-types from the
RFC by the end of the week and also allow pattern matching. It is to be based on
the current "purpose" attribute which uses a union between a pattern match and a
closed list.
[20] Phases of
<alt-trans>
John didn't have
a proposal for this. John suggested we leave it for V1.1. Tony asked what impact
that would have. The absence of a tight definition leaves the door open fort
ools developers to interpret the values differently. Tony suggested that we
wouldn't be able to fix this regardless of how much time was spent. John agreed
and pointed out that there were other areas open to interpretation in thes
pecification. Tony suggested that we resolve this issue after V1.1. Johnp
roposed that we defer this until after V1.1. Seconded by Mark. Carried without
opposition.
[21] Attribute
values list
Tony's mail with the
attribute values attachment was reviewed http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200302/msg00052.html
context-type
The list for
context-type was accepted without opposition
count-type
The list for
count-type was changed to hyphenated, lower-case values (e.g. "no-of-usages").
John suggested that we allow all values for "datatype", "restype" and "state" to
be valid for "count-type" and remove duplicates from the "count-type" list. Some
discussion about complex counting followed but it was decided to put this to one
side until a later date. Some values were moved to the "state" attribute list.
This just left "total", "repetition" and "num-usages". The list was then
accepted without opposition.
datatype
"menu" renamed
to "menufile". Some discussion on the "mimetype" value. Decision reached tor
emove "mimetype" and incorporate valid "mime-type" values in to datatype."
rcdata" moved to restype. "stringtable" and "window" removed. Shigamichis
uggested some further values and will send them to Tony. The list was thena
ccepted without opposition.
restype
The list was
accepted without opposition.
