14:56:25 <trackbot> Meeting: XForms Users Community Group Teleconference
14:56:25 <trackbot> Date: 26 February 2021
14:56:52 <Steven> Agenda: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2021Feb/0007
14:56:56 <Steven> Chair: Steven
15:00:07 <Steven> Topic: Function namespaces
15:00:22 <Steven> Erik: There is a followup on XML Slack
15:00:38 <Steven> ... Liam and Mike Kaye are there.
15:00:52 <Steven> ... No big conclusion but one point
15:01:06 <Steven> ... in XPath 4, which people have been talking about since November
15:01:19 <Steven> ... there is a plan for more flexibility for exposing functions
15:01:37 <Steven> ... so there is now a default function namespace, and otherwise use a namespace
15:02:01 <Steven> .... proposal is to have a function resolver based on various factors.
15:02:06 <Steven> ... I simplify
15:02:18 <Steven> ... with some rules for resolution of names.
15:02:35 <Steven> ... we say a few things about resolving functions
15:02:40 <Steven> ... in XForms
15:02:49 <Steven> ... so maybe we could simplify if we use XPath 4
15:03:12 <Steven> ... Related idea: we have unprefixed XForms functions.
15:03:23 <Steven> ... in many programming languages, there is an import statement
15:03:29 <Steven> ... the user decides.
15:04:24 <Steven> ... We could make a case that we could prefix function calls.
15:04:50 <Steven> ... Maybe it would be good practice.
15:05:08 <Steven> Steven: Something to watch in any case.
15:05:52 <Steven> Topic: AOB
