Primer

<HarryH> ACTION: danja to review primer [CONTINUES] [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action01]

<Zakim> DanC, you wanted to brief Harry on schedule noodling and consider withdrawing danja's action

<jjc> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-wg/2007Jun/0041

<DanC> JJC: the primer uses eRDF, which isn't up-to-date w.r.t. our base-uri/redirect investigations

<DanC> ... IanD's markup uses rel="profile", but I prefer something more like rel="alternate-profile-uri"

<HarryH> ACTION: jjc to fix glean-profile to work with redirects [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action02]

<HarryH> ACTION: jjc to ping ianD to get eRDF to work with updated GRDDL agents. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action03]

<HarryH> h17 profile isn't there.

<john-l> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-wg/2007Jun/0066.html

john-l: made progress on excel example in primer

HarryH: there will be problems if jane's schedule output RDF graph is modified

HarryH: I'm not sure what is broken about jane's schedule

<DanC> (I suggest a "make check" for the primer that checks everything.)

jjc: lacking ns declaration

-> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-wg/2007Jun/0042.html

jjc: hotel data is now working (but output file might be wrong)

jjc: easy to update output file

<HarryH> ACTION: jjc to fix janeschedule to best of his ability. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action04]

<HarryH> ACTION: jjc to update hotel-data [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action05]

<Zakim> DanC, you wanted to suggest a primer-qa session after this meeting

<HarryH> ACTION: HarryH to double-check XSL location for HL7. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action06]

<jjc> http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/grddl-wg/doc29/glean-HL7-CDA.xslt

<jjc> 404s

that XSLT has been moved into test repository

-> http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/grddl-wg/td/hl7-rim-to-pomr.xslt

DanC: what is the timing for the primer track

<HarryH> ACTION: HarryH to double-check primer SPARQL queries. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action07]

jjc: publish primer next week?

DanC: june 20 decision on primer?

<HarryH> Let's try our best to get Primer ready for publication as a note by next week?

jjc: outstanding primer actions are relatively trivial

<jjc> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-wg/2007Jun/0038

<jjc> has one critical edit

<jjc> suggest ignore first non-critical edit, the second non-critical comment is addressed

<DanC> I think I see suggested text in http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-comments/2007AprJun/0081.html by dbooth 29 May

<DanC> "Use of a

<DanC> namespace on the root element represents a declaration that the document

<DanC> conforms to the semantics of that namespace as defined by the namespace

<DanC> owner"

scribe: conversation continues about TAG conversation about namespace and enforced semantics

<HarryH> "It is good practice that Use of a

<HarryH> namespace on the root element represents a declaration that the document

<HarryH> conforms to the semantics of that namespace as defined by the namespace

<HarryH> owner."

where does that authority come from?

i'm not aware of any spec which mandates conformance of a namespace by its use

<Zakim> jjc, you wanted to ask where this sentence goes in primer?

<Zakim> dbooth, you wanted to ask whether this statement really reflect the wg decision

i agree, wholeheartedly

<Zakim> DanC, you wanted to note "When a namespace URI owner provides a namespace document, it is authoritative for the namespace." -- http://www.w3.org/TR/webarch/#namespace-document

Murray: we should be careful about talking about semantics that must be followed from the use of a namespace, especially if there is nothing to quote and no precedent

that quote doesn't mention semantics

which works

-> http://www.w3.org/TR/webarch/#namespace-document

<DanC> (I want it at the end of the primer, as a sort of "what to watch out for")

HarryH: is the primer the best place for the example?

<HarryH> http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/grddl-wg/doc29/primer.html#scheduling

<HarryH> Under "referencing via profile document"

<HarryH> http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/grddl-wg/doc29/primer.html#hl7

dbooth: happy to help wording - avoiding 'semantics'

<DanC> (I think the one-sentence version doesn't work for the primer. either tell the story or don't.)

we *do* give the rdf namespace special consideration (with our base rule) but we don't apply this generally

<jjc> note: excel example will not work - it uses a urn: namespace

<john-l> What's wrong with that?

DanC: in the freddy/ralph example, ralph should not have been surprised by the change to the GRDDL mechanisms in the namespace

<jjc> nothing, but we can't add a namespaceTransformation to it

<john-l> Oh, it won't work for this case.

<john-l> I thought you meant it wouldn't work in general. :)

<dbooth> Whether or not the GRDDL results reflect the FULL semantics of the document is a totally different question.

jjc: the example is useful for a healthwarning. It might impact our schedule

<DanC> (david, do you think you could make a 4-paragraph version of the freddie/ralph story as section of the primer?)

are we in agreement to add this story to the primer?

<HarryH> ACTION: HarryH will put in small paragraph mentioning possibility of namespace transforms re DBooth's comment. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action08]

<HarryH> ack

jjc: it would be a good idea to add this to the primer - even if it is a minor edit

<Zakim> dbooth, you wanted to note that whether the GRDDL results reflect any or all of the semantics of the document is a different question

<Zakim> jjc, you wanted to summarize

GRDDL Transformation Library

jjc: changing from embeddedRDF to inlineRDF - clash in primer

<DanC> agenda request: library

<DanC> +1 change those tests, provided we re-approve them.

jjc: we replace references to embeddedRDF to go to inlineRDF instead (refactoring)

<DanC> name one such test somebody, please?

DanC: http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/grddl-wg/td/grddl-tests#embedded-rdf1

<DanC> tx

<jjc> http://www.w3.org/2003/g/inline-rdf

<Zakim> DanC, you wanted to think out loud about getting coherent test results after this change

<jjc> http://www.w3.org/2003/g/xml-attributes parsing error

DanC: conservative route would be to add new tests

DanC: liberal thing is to assume anyone who passed the old test, passes the new one

jjc: libxslt is less functional than saxon / 4suite XML - interesting implementation resport

so we 1) update test editor's draft with approval for embedded-rdf* removed and material updated 2) ping dave ?

<DanC> (I'm pleased with john's updates to http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/grddl-wg/td/test_results ; I nominate him to coordinate)

<HarryH> ACTION: chime to update editor's draft with new test material for embedded RDF. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action09]

<DanC> (I'm leaning more and more toward renaming the tests.)

<HarryH> ACTION: john-l to ping Dave Beckett about embeddedRDF. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action10]

<HarryH> PROPOSED ACTION: Chime to rename embedded RDF tests in Editor's Draft and test files to inline RDF.

<HarryH> ACTION: Chime to rename embedded RDF tests in Editor's Draft and test files to inline RDF. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action11]

<jjc> http://www.w3.org/2003/g/inline-rdf

jjc: the new transform URI

<jjc> rel="profile" href=".."

<jjc> rel="alternate-profile-uri" href="..."

<jjc> consensus for first version

#issue-faithful-infoset (follow-up, liaison)

<dbooth> Two kinds of variability in the pre-processing: 1. Variability that is *needed* to correctly process different kinds of documents; 2. Variability that is the result of the pre-processing being underspecified, which *can* be fixed by defining a default pre-processing model. Thus I am quite interested in what the GRDDL WG would say the XProc.

<Zakim> dbooth, you wanted to note two kinds of variability in the pre-processing

#issue-base-param

<HarryH> Ask Dom re ACTION: DanC to remove base param from online GRDDL service and home2rss.xsl

<HarryH> ACTION: HH to remove or clarify base param in eRDF transformation [WITHDRAW] [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action12]

<DanC> JJC: I think the eRDF base situation is similar to the RDFa situation

jjc: looks like there was a bug in the GRDDL service (Dom')

<jjc> http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/grddl-wg/base

<DanC> (hunting for a version # in http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/grddl-wg/base ... oh well...)

jjc: the intent was for it to be commentary on the spec (informative)

DanC: there was dialog about collision between xml:base and XHTML Base

<dbooth> I think it would be unwise to make it normative, in case there is conflict with other specs, such as RFC 3986.

<dbooth> appendix sounds fine to me

DanC: will an informative appendix work?

<john-l> ACTION: john-l to review http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/grddl-wg/base [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action13]

jjc: this is not WRT an outstanding comment - with the exception of dbooth's

<HarryH> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-comments/2007AprJun/0069

jjc: we haven't discussed messaging pipeline situation via email

dbooth: base uri issue - dealt with adequately

dbooth: is an XML message a representation or an IR with itself as a representation?

dbooth: had a suggestion for the latter

-> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-comments/2007AprJun/0096.html

<DanC> (if the "pipeline is part of base param" hypothesis is false, then somebody should agenda+ something)

jjc: we need more discussion on this

jjc: dbooth should clarify what is still pending

<HarryH> ACTION: Dbooth to clarify precisely what parts of his XML message passing example still need to be addressed and how he suggests addressing them. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/13-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action14]

dbooth: other issue - pipeline scenario brings up ambiguity problem

scribe: i.e., dbooth-3

HarryH: ambiguity problem is not resolved to dbooths satisfaction

dbooth: problem with conformance vocabulary - not a problem with test cases

scribe: conversation continues about how suggestions should be presented to the WG
