Re: [dfdl-wg] More documents
Sorry I missed the call this past week. Here are my comments and some
in-line editing on the
I actually think the primary reason to push this document forward is NOT
extensibility, but because it is needed to clarify the basic semantics of
DFDL. That is, it allows us to make very clear exactly what properties in
the annotations are guiding the selection of which conversion functions.

[dfdl-wg] More documents
These are documents 3 and 4 of a set of 3 :).
The documents are:
- bundles ? a reusable block of DFDL statements
- Conversions ? a proposal for the semantic details as to how
conversions are chosen during the operation of a DFDL parser. These
semantics include a description as to how the conversions can be extended.
These documents round off the current set of proposals from the
extensibility design team. The team has reasonable consensus on these
documents, with the (relatively trivial) exception of bundles where there
may be some outstanding issues. We believe that with these two documents
there is enough material to support the necessary extensibility. However,
we have not yet worked through enough examples of round tripping to
understand whether that is sufficiently well covered and we are expecting
that all the ideas in these documents will require refining by the group
as a whole.
I would like to discuss these two documents on Wednesday (if possible).
Thanks,
