This link goes to the subcommittee home page rather than directly to the
minutes. Please link to the minutes yourselves.

I have attached a Word document with the minutes. It also contains the
full text of the April 3 proposals. The attached email contains the text
of the xml:lang proposal submitted to the TC on April 4.

In addition, I have attached Paul Prescod's statement of the behavior of
conref in terms of the xml:lang. Please review to understand the
proposed behavior of a conref-ed text.

Action Items:
Discussion of the dir attribute proposal (Gershon Joseph, Kevin Farwell,
Richard Ischida)
Use cases for the xml:lang attribute (submitted by JoAnn Hackos) Closed


New Business

1) Gershon will review the current status of the xml:lang proposal based
on the email discussions that have occurred since the TC approved the
proposal last week.

I believe that everyone has been copies on the emails, although some
have circulated among TC members. 

Below are the links to last week's proposals. I hope everyone already
has this information from last week's agenda. Continued discussion of
dir during the week.

Gershon will send everyone the latest copy of the xml:lang
specification.

2)Discuss best practices for the dir attribute based on input from
Gershon, Kevin, and Richard.

3) Begin a discussion of the best practices surrounding inline elements.
I hope that Robert Anderson can start us off with a recommended course
of action.
