minutes from 19th September approved

pauld: WG welcomes Vladislav who made an excellent contribution early on raising ISSUE-1 (as an observer) and now joins the WG

<vlad> thanks, Paul

pauld: we need to think if we need another F2F meeting, and Yves is going to progress thinking around an interop event.

pauld: as we run out of Issues for the Basic patterns document, I expect to start building agendas around tracking actions, so watch out :-)

Status of Deliverables

pauld: did a bunch of editing last night, please review the Introduction and Status sections of the Basic patterns document

pauld: ACTION-74 and ACTION-73 are done, I generated an XRef HTML page, just need to commit it

george: been working on ensuring we have patterns for issues and examples for patterns. ACTION-77 is ongoing.

george: we've a lot of patterns and examples identified using ISSUE-30

<pauld:> been editing patterns.xml and examples.xml, we can do a merge when we meet next week

<scribe> ACTION: pdowney to possibly raise issue to hold datatypes [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/10/10-databinding-minutes.html#action01]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-81 - Possibly raise issue to hold datatypes [on Paul Downey - due 2006-10-17].

pauld: we've a bunch of patterns in our spec without examples, especially our attribute patterns

ISSUE-2 Test Suite

pauld: will create a test suite page tomorrow with the log file format documented:

http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/databinding/edcopy/toolkits/soap4r_ruby_20051204/output.xml

ISSUE-12 Identifying a conformant schema

no news here ..

ISSUE-49 is anySimpleType a Basic Patterns type?

priscilla: anyType is actually the default type

<scribe> ACTION: pwalmsle to investigate use of anySimpleType [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/10/10-databinding-minutes.html#action02]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-82 - Investigate use of anySimpleType [on Priscilla Walmsley - due 2006-10-17].

ISSUE-68 xs:import of Schema 1.0 namespace

priscilla: still unclear on it's utility

pauld: unclear exactly which schemas use it

priscilla: maybe you want the schema for schemas to validate extensions?

pauld: discounting the import makes us composable with the WS-I Basic Profile but may rule out some vertical standard schemas.

pauld: let's wait and see if the WS-I BP has anything to say

ISSUE-71 Relationship with WS-I Basic Profile

yves: ok to cite non-normatively

pauld: how do we cite it in such as a way so they can use us rather than can use them

vladislav: I know the WS-I constrain xsd:import, what other features are an issue?

pauld: document encoding must be UTF-8/UTF-16

george: we had an issue with multiple schemas for the same namespace

<Yves> "If you plan to use this specification in the context of BP1.0 the following extra restrictions apply: (and here a list of the restriction imposed by BP).

<Yves> that in a specific non-normative paragraph

RESOLUTION: close ISSUE-71 with Yves proposed non-normative section

ISSUE-57 xs:include pattern

<scribe> ACTION: gcowe to look at standalone schemas for ISSUE-57 etc [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/10/10-databinding-minutes.html#action03]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-83 - Look at standalone schemas for ISSUE-57 etc [on George Cowe - due 2006-10-17].

ISSUE-70 empty Enumeration as a Null Datatype

pauld one of a number of Basic patterns we have for representing "no hands clapping"

vladislav can look at these with our implementation

ISSUE-72 Relationship to XPath 2.0

yves: we may be able to go to Rec with XPath in CR. A lot depends upon the number of implementations available

pauld: alternatively we could write a profile of XPath 2.0 in our notational conventions

yves: we could stte we use it as a notational convention, but you don't actually need XPath 2.0 to conform to our spec

priscilla: XPath 2.0 is a subset of XQuery, so lots of tools potentially

RESOLUTION: close ISSUE-72 with Yves proposal to clarify our relationship with XPath 2.0
