Re: [widgets] Widget locale
Hi Jere, On Thu, Oct 23, 2008 at 11:39 AM, Kapyaho Jere (Nokia-TP-MSW/Tampere) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The definition of 'widget locale' is currently not in sync in the 'Widgets 1.0: Packaging and Configuration' [1] and 'Widget 1.0: APIs and Events' [2] specs. The locale issue has been mentioned earlier by Addison Phillips (comment #16 in [3]) and fixed, but I just noticed that the APIs spec mentions ISO 639-2 codes, and not BCP 47 tags. Thanks for pointing this out. We will fix this in before the document gets published. The question also remains how the widget engine reports the system locale to the widget as a BCP 47 language tag, if the engine itself is implemented on a platform that uses a different locale identification mechanism (which is highly likely). In that case some mapping is inevitable, and even though this is most likely implementation dependent, maybe a mention to that effect would be useful. We will be sure to include a note about this. We will let you know once we've added it so you can check that it is ok. Kind regards, Marcos -- Marcos Caceres http://datadriven.com.au

We decided a while back that we would not bother doing this. Version are just different. This avoids all the mess that Arve alluded to, and also avoids the Unicode collation mess when of non-ASCII version strings. Right. It's just like an etag, only not an etag 8-) Mark.

scrappy minutes drafts
Hi folks, in case nobody noticed, there are draft minutes at http://www.w3.org/2008/10/20-webapps-minutes and http://www.w3.org/2008/10/21-webapps-minutes They could do with a clean-up, but I have been busy and not had time to do it, so I thought I would point out that they are there. Note that these are for the bit of the meeting that didn't deal with widgets. major results: We will ask for Proposed Recommendation for Element Traversal, and AC permission to do a version 2 (which has a nodelist for children) We will make a last call for Progress events, and another last call for selectors api. We expect to get last calls for XHR1 and AC4CSR out this year, and expect XHR2 to take at least another year. We will put out a simple file upload API that will support something like blob, and we will work at some point on more powerful stuff like File I/O and similar device functionality APIs (note that is more or less what is in the Bondi work anyway). We will ask to take on timers, but we still have no editor for the Window object. There may be more in the minutes, but it is late here. cheers Chaals -- Charles McCathieNevile Opera Software, Standards Group je parle français -- hablo español -- jeg lærer norsk http://my.opera.com/chaals Try Opera: http://www.opera.com
