xfq: looks like BCP47 URL has been moved and broken many links. Has made PRs for our articles.
xfq: Filed an issue against techref regarding tools that broke
addison: RFC editor link is not ideal
jcK: RFC editor should be stable...
xfq: Tools link to RFCs but they broke, is there an equivalent for RFC editor
ACTION: xfq: ping jck about link to BCP47
<trackbot> Created ACTION-1096 - Ping jck about link to bcp47 [on Fuqiao Xue - due 2021-11-25].
jcK: Contact me later to sort this out
<xfq> See https://
r12a: Found the link from ietf
JcK: There are issues tools pointer has moved. It is all tied up with the debate on what to do about RFC editor.
xfq: Data tracker link redirects to the RFC editor now.
jcK: The URL will change
Addison: Specref people need to fix links
xfq: Many RFC links have been moved, but BCP is different

RADAR Review
<addison> https://
Addison: There was a wide review that hasn't materialised. I will need to follow up on it.
epub
<xfq> https://
xfq: This request was discusssed last week. I commented that there are lots of variations and unassigned code points. They changed it to exclude only language tag code points.
r12a: We have no tracked on this PR
r12a: I will label it for tracking
Addison: this is the last open issue that we have.
xfq: agreed
Addison: Should we write down policy about "don't exclude unless there is a reason". Should we codify as it seems file system safe.
<r12a> https://
r12a: This is about including and excluding character ranges, so we already have a clear guideline.
r12a: This was historic, so may need updating
Addison: Should we add something about filesystem safe characters or use the epub list?
r12a: Unsure if that is the case
xfq: There may be no tests or experiments
Addison: they had something like this
xfq: There are still no tests - so no surety
Addison: This was based on vendor input
r12a: We made some changes, did we miss other areas? Should we add it as informational, but refer them to epub's list
Addison: shall we do anything more with this, or leave it for now.
ACTION: addison: codify epub's character restrictions as guidance for specdev
<trackbot> Created ACTION-1097 - Codify epub's character restrictions as guidance for specdev [on Addison Phillips - due 2021-11-25].
Addison: Added placeholder
Tracker issue can be closed
string metadata in manifest
<xfq> https://
xfq: Filed this issue in April against web app manifest spec. I propose that we update it to a resolution issue.
Addison: Why didn't we start it as "needs resolution"?
<r12a> https://
xfq: I'm not sure we've done a recent review of web manifest. I could not find ref to this one.
xfq: They are confused with translation and localisation issues. They want to know about specific use cases where individual fields override.
<xfq> https://
xfq: I found no articles on overriding a whole document on this. So I wrote one. They are still asking for use-cases.
xfq: Should we provide examples of single dir/lang changes override.
<r12a> https://
Addison: Set at string level as some strings have different properties to whole document.
Addison: In this case a challenge is that these are displayed out of th context of the document, e.g when shown on home screen.
xfq: I've added a link on one example.
<xfq> https://
<r12a> https://
xfq: This is guidance, not a use case. Here is the article.
r12a: Here's another article.
Addison: This article could address their requirements
<r12a> https://
Addison: so, fisrt thing is that it needs a "needs resolution" marker and tracker. Will these articles suffice?
<xfq> https://
xfq: This is similar to the string meta article
r12a: doesn't mention that the document may have a metadata set,
r12a: doesn't account for neutral content that may need to be a different dir to the document.
Addison: Shall I see what I can do?
xfq: Here there is a start with latin characters...
<r12a> https://
r12a: but if the record was RTL, then you would need the override for latin text.
r12a: If you didn't do that for the title field then everything would be incorrect.
<r12a> Use cases for bidi and language metadata on the Web
r12a: I may need to update the article in ^^^ if it isn't clear (in link above)
ACTION: richard: review lang-bidi-use-cases for clarity of use cases of specific override
<trackbot> Created ACTION-1098 - Review lang-bidi-use-cases for clarity of use cases of specific override [on Richard Ishida - due 2021-11-25].
Addison: anything more needed. Do you need help before we update the document?
r12a: You have the record set to RTL, but the title will be problematic, but have tagged the author and the direction null is questionable.
xfq: I pointed to this before
r12a: This won't help them understand as the example in the spec appears incorrect.
Addison: there must be a way of getting errata into this.
ACTION: xfq: file errata on json-ld @direction null example
<trackbot> Created ACTION-1099 - File errata on json-ld @direction null example [on Fuqiao Xue - due 2021-11-25].
<Bert> There is a JSON-LD WG specifically charged with maintenance of the JSON-LD Rec. So making an errata can be left to them.
addison: I will tidy up items and limit as list, on rader assignments
Radar Assignments
<addison> https://
r12a: what you are looking here, is which you raised hand
… another set of items, without assignment, at bottom
… not in lader at all, for these, assign someone, and check issues
… another is in tracker but not in lader
addison: pick later first. open issue exists without one in rader
ACTION: addison: move and close unassigned with support from r12a
<trackbot> Created ACTION-1100 - Move and close unassigned with support from r12a [on Addison Phillips - due 2021-11-25].
addison: will work on in column twice
addison: for in rader but unassigned, dom is to Bert?
xfq: many DOM snapshots, and rader is for which?
bert: did one sometime ago...
addison: saw some in needs-resolution
[reviwing list in radar]
r12a: two css-text at the same date?
addison: close one
r12a: take another look on these later
… also take list into wiki, for further use
