3/ Issue 

Final Attribute Values

John has sent the normalised list to the group. http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200303/msg00017.html He 
introduced this to the meeting and raised the issue of descriptions missing for 
some of these entries. Tony said that all everyone who has asked for an 
attribute value to be entered should send a description to him by close of 
business on Friday (PST). He will send out a mail to the TC on 
Monday.

 

Values for size-unit 

Enda sent the TC a mail  which was accepted. http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200303/msg00018.html  There was a 
discussion on whether we should use the word glyph or char-grapheme. It was 
agreed we will use the word glyph. Mat will send Yves a description of 
glyph.

There was a discussion raised from about the use char-16, char-32. After 
some debate it was decided to leave this as it is. 

There was further debate on the values 
that can be used for size-unit. Christian will provide a list to Yves based on 
the CSS list.

 

id attribute

Yves proposal on the id attrribute accepted. http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200303/msg00019.html

 

<g> element

We are going to remove the following line from the <g> element 
section of the spec, "A <g> element can contain another 
<g> element. In this case, if the embedded group has an 
id attribute, it should never 
be moved outside of its parent group."

 

All member of the TC need to look at 
definitions.

 

4/ Schema

The schema is being re-worked to allow easier use of the lists in the 
same attribute type e.g. count-type. 

 

There is a problem with XMLSpy valaditating against the 
schema

Three errors reported by Bryan have been fixed
