B. Namespace Versioning
ISSUE CLOSED in 21 Feb 2006 meeting - KEPT FOR HISTORICAL PURPOSES

The policy of changing the namespace every version is complicating the XSLTs to process XLIFF documents. Comments were recently submitted describing the problem: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200602/msg00005.html 
Doug Domeny provides a synopsys of the issues in the following email: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200602/msg00006.html and called for discussion on the topic.  Closed - will adapt to the namespace versioniong requirements - no further action required.


B. Representation Guides: 

a. COMPLETE: HTML - Doug revised document updating the examples with correct version information (http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200602/msg00004.html). TC approved representation guide as part of 1.2 committee draft package.

b. NET & Windows Resources 
NOTE: NO PROGRESS SINCE MEETING IN NOVEMBER 
Initial draft of .NET Profile: 
Latest draft of Windows Res Data Resources (revised 21 Sep 2005): http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200509/msg00011.html

Latest Draft of Java Resources Profile: http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/xliff/download.php/14554/xliff-profile-java-1.1-draft-1.zip 

Although the TC provisionally agreed at last meeting to have a ballot starting September 30th, a number of issues arose during the review which require discussion in a teleconference. The issues are documented in the following mails: 

i. Handling escaping and replaceables in XLIFF -> http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200509/msg00013.html 
ii. A number of issues in this email: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200509/msg00023.html 
1/Differentiate between different Java platforms/versions 
2/Address XML-based properties 
3/Provide pointers to Java pages on internationalization 
4/Sketch the Extract&Merge Paradigm 
5/Handling of references (especially to non-textual resources) 
6/Approach for comments 
c.survey of existing parsing tools ->http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200509/msg00025.html 

These issues have not yet been addressed - need final word on escaping. 

d. PO Files: 
Updated PO files representation document to 1.2 specification -> http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200603/msg00007.html
Issue: This document needs to be approved as 1.2 committee draft.  Will discuss if a ballot should take place in the meeting or online...

Archived Historical detail: 
No licensing issues exist with the work that was submitted to the XLIFF TC by Paul Gampe. 
The proposed final PO file document submitted for ballot: http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/xliff/download.php/14854/xliff-profile-po.zip 
The ballot achieved a simple majority, and therefore PASSED and results are here: http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/xliff/ballot.php?id=851 
This representation guide will now be distributed along with the other resource type guides. 

D. Open issues:

3/ Work in Progress: 
A. XLIFF 1.2 SSpecification 
a.Ballot Passed Approving Committee Draft
NO DISCUSSION OR ACTION REQUIRED.

NO DISCUSSION OR ACTION REQUIRED.

c. Doug's XSD update 1: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200602/msg00010.html
Issue: does the committee support adding Strict & Transional XSD's?  For both 1.1 and 1.2?
Issue: Tool-id attribute corrections, and additional constraints - OK to fix in both 1.1 and 1.2?
DISCUSSION: Committee not opposed to Strict & Transitional XSD paradigm but want guidance from OASIS.
Bug fixing the XSD will need to update both 1.1 and 1.2.
DECISION: Discuss further until next month's meeting - add to agenda to  discuss and possibly approve solution.

d. Doug's (and Rudolfo) XSD and Spec update: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200603/msg00000.html
Issue: explicitly state that the id attribute must be unique?
Issue: add constraints for the xid attribute?

DISCUSSION: Does the ID need to be unique? Are there any instances where it would not be?  Seems unlikely but we need to avoid breaking backwards compatibility.
DECISION: Discuss further until next month's meeting - add to agenda to  discuss andd possibly approve solution.

e. Andzrej: XLIFF inline elements with spacial characteristics: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200603/msg00001.html
Response from Florian: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200603/msg00005.html
Response from Andzrej: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200603/msg00006.html
Issue: Do we open up the spec to address the rawreplace=' ' mechanism suggested by Florian?

DISCUSSION: Andzrej explained.  Magnus also concurred that this is a very useful feature,  but probably should rename to something more simple and clear - perhaps "textequivalent",  "textapproximation", etc. Default value should be empty.  Doug wanted to know if any other character could be specified other than empty. "subst" as suggested by Mat or "equiv" or "equiv-lex", or "lev-equiv", "lex-replace.  Doug asked if only one character would be replaced - consensus is that should be able to replace any number of characters - not just one.
DECISION: Andzrej will author spec modifitions. TC will need to choose an appropriate name - Tony will send out a mail with all options listed to date,  discussion will continue until next Tuesday, when a ballot will be created to select the attribute name of choice.

B. Namespace Versioning
ISSUE CLOSED in 21 Feb 2006 meeting - KEPT FOR HISTORICAL PURPOSES

B. Representation Guides: 
a. COMPLETE: HTML 
DISCUSSION:  Will need to reopen this and probably every guide in order to deal with inline tags issue.  Issue itself is new business - will add to next meeting's agenda. 
DECISION: Discussion with Rudolfo will be advanced in mailing list and next teleconferencce (this is new business)

b. NET & Windows Resources 
NOTE: NO PROGRESS SINCE MEETING IN NOVEMBER 
NO ACTION OR DECISION REQUIRED.

c. Java Resource Bundles 
NOTE: NO PROGRESS SINCE MEETING IN NOVEMBER 
NO ACTION OR DECISION REQUIRED.

d. PO Files: 
Updated PO files representation document to 1.2 specification -> http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200603/msg00007.html
Issue: This document needs to be approved as 1.2 committee draft.  Will discuss if a ballot should take place in the meeting or online...

DISCUSSION: Rudolfo suggested that the document is mssing a revision - needs to be revised with recommended approach for handling escape sequences... 
DECISION: Rudolfo will sent revision to Tony via email and Tony will update the document.

D. Open issues: 
a. Translation of Voice XML Issues 
DECISION: Mat will present this doc to the TC at the next committee meeting.  Solution is however dependent on solving how to Extend XLIFF with Separate Namespaces (action item below owned by Andzrej)

b. Extending XLIFF with separate namespaces.
DISCUSSION: Some thought has been put into this issue but not yet even in draft form.  
DECISION: Mat & Andzrej will work offline to advance this work.
