2. Technical Agenda

Last week, the suggestion was made that we try to clear up a bit of the back log in PRs by reviewing some of the smaller, simpler ones. Please read these issues in preparation for the meeting so that we are more likely to be able to move through them swiftly.

2.1. PR #375: Context for default parameter values

Contrary to the remark above, this is not a small issue. But it’s a bug and deseves high priority. I propose a 30 minute time box on this issue so that we do have time to resolve some low hanging fruit.

See pull request #375.

2.2. PR #378: Update the localName and unparsed entity reference notes for parse-html

See pull request #378.

2.3. PR #371: Issue 370: forwards and backwards compatibility for 4.0

See pull request #371.

2.4. PR #364: Generalize switch expressions in XQuery

See pull request #364.

2.5. PR #363: Issue 345; missing rules for type matching

See pull request #363.

2.6. PR #355: Add to imp-defined-feature-appendix

See pull request #355.

2.7. PR #344: Issue 22: allow "for"/"let" keyword to be repeated in XPath

See pull request #344.

2.8. PR #347: Attempt to clarify fn:parse-uri and fn:build-uri

See pull request #347.

2.9. More issues

If we get through all of the PRs proposed above, we’ll take on any additional issues that the group suggests.
