RE: Profiles ont namespace and profile docs short names - please respond

I agree that /ns/dx/prof/ is less preferable to /ns/prof/ and the shorter one was my proposal following /ns/prov# styling, just as you say however Dave Raggett suggests the addition of /dx/ to assist with W3C management. I personally still prefer /ns/prof/.

Policy is, I believe, http for persistent namespaces, as represented in the RDF (and see http://www.w3.org/ns/prov), however the URI redirects to https while dereferencing.

Thanks, Nick.

Unfortunately, I didn't eventually manage to join the call yesterday. So, my apologies in advance if my questions have already been answered.

My comments inline.

It is unclear to me whether we cannot simply go for

https://www.w3.org/ns/prof/

as done for other W3C vocabularies - e.g.:

http://www.w3.org/ns/dcat#<http://www.w3.org/ns/dcat>
http://www.w3.org/ns/dqv#<http://www.w3.org/ns/dqv>
http://www.w3.org/ns/duv#<http://www.w3.org/ns/duv>
http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#<http://www.w3.org/ns/prov>

Basically, I'm missing what should go under

https://www.w3.org/ns/dx/

Also, which is the W3C policy for URI namespaces wrt http / https ?

+1 also from me to changing conneg-by-ap to prof-conneg.

About the IETF one, and consistently with the above, I wonder whether it should be made explicit that it is about profile *content negotiation*: prof-conneg-ietf

Cheers,

Andrea

Hi,

Hi all,

NAMESPACE
The namespace proposed for the Profiles Ontology by Dave Raggett as likely easy for the W3C to manage is:

https://www.w3.org/ns/dx/prof/

The /dx/ indicates this WG. Please note this is a slash URI, as opposed to a hash URI, to allow for sub-namespaces, should they be needed.

I recommend we adopt this namespace.


PROFILE DOCS
The short codes informally in use for the profile documents are:

prof-guide - Profile Guidance
conneg-by-ap - Content Negotiation by Profile
prof-ont - Profiles Ontology
So, what is the proposal 'prof' (as in the namespace above) or 'prof-ont' as here?


prof-ietf - IETF draft (used in references only, not in doc names)

I recommend changing the conneg-by-ap to prof-conneg for "prof-" consistency, and the rest staying as they are.

+1 to changing conneg-by-ap to prof-conneg

I guess you will also change the folder in github to reflect this, once these names are decided.

Thanks,

Alejandra

Please could WG members with any suggestions for these proposals weigh in via replies to this email before next week's plenary meeting?

Thanks,

Nick
