advice on date/time definitions

felix: how would date-time values be referenced
... don't want normative reference to a Note

addison: rfc3339 ?

felix: xliff 2.0 also needs a reference

<fsasaki> addison: reference XML schema date / time type as an option

<fsasaki> .. in the thread it is not strictly a time stamp

<fsasaki> .. if it is a complete value (date, time, timezone offset) that is a time stamp

<fsasaki> .. if you want to allow other things that is more complicated, see e.g. floating number discussion

felix: mainly a timestamp, I think
... but could include things like "should be localized by such-and-such"
... not sure if that's a timestamp

<fsasaki> addision: could be treated as a time stamp

<fsasaki> .. not necessarily floating

<fsasaki> .. the mail says things like "just having a year etc." - not sure about the purpose

<fsasaki> .. question is whether you have a specific set of date values that you want to permit, or just want to allow definition of some fields with date related information

<fsasaki> [discussion on XML schema data types and whether a reference to that would help]

<fsasaki> addision: xml schema defines all of the lexical spaces

<fsasaki> .. the RFC has a list of productions that you can point to normatively

<fsasaki> .. that does not contain all the complicated stuff you don't care about

<fsasaki> .. it is an RFC, that has been around for a long time

<scribe> ACTION: felix: write back to XLIFF and ITS-IG with summary of our discussion [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2014/02/06-i18n-minutes.html#action03]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-284 - Write back to xliff and its-ig with summary of our discussion [on Felix Sasaki - due 2014-02-13].

css syntax @charset

richard: we can close all of the comments?

<r12a> http://www.w3.org/International/track/products/54

addison: there transition document (see email) noted that we hadn't accept (or not) their rejection of our comments
... satisfied on 306/307

richard: me too

addison: other one is 329

richard: they argued clearly why they don't want to change
... worth raising the issue
... key thing is that it's not really a rule
... wrote a set of tests for syntax
... and submitted those too
... never could do @charset with extra spaces

<scribe> chair: should we accept this?

JcK: would prefer if we fixed it, but not sure worth objecting

<fsasaki> +1

<r12a> accept

<matial> no opinion

<scribe> chair: no formal objection

<scribe> ACTION: addison: respond to ISSUE-329 indicating we are satisfied with their decision/have no formal objection [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2014/02/06-i18n-minutes.html#action04]
