Meeting minutes

Functions in XForms namespace

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2021Feb/0002

Steven: Needs a discussion?

Erik: I'm following up. There's an XPath implementation Fonto, and the implementor is asking.

Steven: Is this the classic misunderstanding of what a namespace is?

Erik: I'm not sure.
… XPath doesn't have an import mechanism.
… Fonto doesn't seem to have a mechanism to import functions
… Mike Kaye is working on XPath 4, and there are some things being added to ease calling functions without prefixes

Steven: So we have no work to do.

Erik: Not presently

ACTION-2295: Check that his implementation combined @instance and

@targetref correctly

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2021Jan/0002

Erik: Continues

ACTION-2296: Add text to make it clear where xforms-action-error is

dispatched to.

Steven: Continues

Sorting

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2021Jan/0017

Steven: Did we come to any conclusions?

Erik: I did mention that we had some functions
… XPath 3 has a sorting function

Steven: So no conclusion yet.

Steven: That's all for this week.

AOB

Steven: Declarative Amsterdam will be Thursday/Friday 4/5 Nov
