xfq: jlreq added the ability to switch language by URL parameter
… and is discussing about making English the default
… because showing both English and Japanese is not a common use case
… should we apply this to clreq too?
Eric: the English version of jlreq is the authoritative version
… and it's written mostly for English readers
… but a lot of readers of clreq are Chinese readers
Bobby: agreed
… Japan has a JIS standard, but we don't have the equivalent
… but displaying multiple languages simultaneously does not look good either
huijing: I think the current status is good enough
Eric: ok
… so we won't change the default language for now
https://github.com/w3c/clreq/pull/211
Eric: I think we can merge this
All: agreed
https://github.com/w3c/clreq/pull/208
xfq: Richard commented in the PR
… some editorial issues
Eric: I'll comment on the PR
huijing: I'll also fix the editorial issues
https://github.com/w3c/clreq/issues/210
Eric: the text is a bit weird
… maybe a translation issue (from jlreq)?
… I propose we change from 需要 to 可以
… and remove "中文书籍无论直、横排大多不分栏"
… should we talk about books and magazines separately?
Yijun: I agree with Eric
… this section is about the differences between horizontal and vertical writing modes
xfq: any objection to Eric's proposal?
[no objection]
xfq: I'll submit a PR
https://github.com/w3c/clreq/issues/209
Eric: this is a question, and I answered it
… can we close this issue?
[silence]
Eric: I'll close it
https://github.com/w3c/clreq/issues/207
huijing: should we simplify the text a bit?
Eric: in order to reduce ambiguity, I think it's OK sacrifice some simplicity
https://github.com/w3c/clreq/issues/125
huijing: I remember Yijun shared some examples about this before
Yijun: this is not common
… one or two example may not be super useful, since people might just lay it out casually
Eric: how is the spacing computed?
xidorn: @@1
… this issue is caused by using the Japanese layout algorithm to lay out Latin characters
… space-around is the default value, and it's designed for Japanese
Bobby: how do we lay it out case in InDesign?
Eric: it's a style issue
… there are several ways to do this
… the default way to do this in Chinese should be set solid and centered
… as in Richard's first illustration
xfq: should we mention this in the document?
… add some text in https://w3c.github.io/clreq/#interlinear_annotations ?
xidorn: we can add some text in https://w3c.github.io/clreq/#usage_of_interlinear_annotations
Eric: agreed
… more specifically, we can add some text in § 3.3.1.2 Indicating Meaning or Other Additional Information
… do we really need to mention this in the document?
… comment in the issue and close it might be enough
Bobby: Anyone going to TPAC?
https://www.w3.org/2019/09/TPAC/Overview.html
Eric: 16 September is Respect for the Aged Day
… I can't be there for the whole week, but one day might be possible
Bobby: we can look into the possibility of discussing the future of clreq and jlreq (possibly also klreq) for one day
