(multiple impls, multiple langs) Jun 08 10:25:37 ... if we tell folks to switch to dawg-ql, and it doesn't have optoionals, it's a harder sell. Jun 08 10:26:43 DaveB: *that's* an interesting claim, if true ;> Jun 08 10:27:11 DanC considers moving it to an objective Jun 08 10:27:58 AndyS: let's finish the requirements discussion Jun 08 10:28:21 andyS: many of the proposed options seem to push us towards a style of ql, ala relational vs. graph Jun 08 10:28:26 == 3.8 Bookmarkable Queries Jun 08 10:28:32 ... other reqs don't do that Jun 08 10:29:01 RobS: a query expressed as some text Jun 08 10:29:05 robs: would rather have a requirement that a query shoudl be expressed as text Jun 08 10:29:52 The statement in the requirement that "the query is not intended to be humanly readable" seems to clash with one of the design goals for any URI.... Jun 08 10:29:56 How about: req that query can be expressed as an HTTP GET?

It could persists somewhere and a URI could locate it. Is this correct?

Jun 08 10:37:08 RobS: it's more like a "let's keep in mind" Jun 08 10:37:18 steve: it is quantifiable Jun 08 10:37:25 ... which is then an objective Jun 08 10:37:46 +1 to 3.8 => Design Objective (and add latency as a DO) Jun 08 10:38:12 +1 Jun 08 10:38:16 if the protocol, say, did gzip or something, it'd meet this?

Jun 08 10:44:53 no objections Jun 08 10:45:01 no abstentions Jun 08 10:45:16 RESOLVED to move 3.9 to DOs Jun 08 10:45:19 RESOLVED to adopt 3.9 as an objective Jun 08 10:45:46 == 3.10 Result Limits Jun 08 10:46:02 It must be possible to to specify an upper bound on the number of query results returned. Jun 08 10:47:05 Andys: RDQL does not have a limit. Joseki provides limits. Jun 08 10:47:05 PatH: it could mean 2 things Jun 08 10:47:34 ... I don't want more than 10 answers Jun 08 10:47:49 ... and the next after that Jun 08 10:47:59 ... or just 10 period Jun 08 10:48:07 q+ to say that the SQL world was happy to hear "10 answers, don't know if there are more" Jun 08 10:48:07 * Zakim sees ericP on the speaker queue Jun 08 10:48:34 * DanC q? Jun 08 10:48:34 * Zakim sees ericP on the speaker queue Jun 08 10:49:54 andyS: seen this to prevent error conditions Jun 08 10:50:12 EricP: SQL has it -- RobS: other things that we don't have Jun 08 10:50:17 Suggest min req is to specify upper limit on results plus indicator that there are more results Jun 08 10:50:19 a query may want just 10 results; such as making a top-ten news feed, for eexample Jun 08 10:51:01 wondering about ordering now....which 10? first 10? Jun 08 10:51:25 to get "next 10" is very common with document retrieval Jun 08 10:51:26 * DanC q? Jun 08 10:51:26 * Zakim sees ericP on the speaker queue Jun 08 10:51:28 q+ to say that asking for 11 is a great way to see if there are 10 or more Jun 08 10:51:28 * Zakim sees ericP on the speaker queue Jun 08 10:51:30 Steve: can affect latency Jun 08 10:51:49 seems to me that this is *extraordinarily* common Jun 08 10:52:37 AndyS: can be either a query or a protocol issue Jun 08 10:54:03 q+ to say "but then we need a way to specify the snapshot of the database" Jun 08 10:54:03 * Zakim sees ericP, Yoshio on the speaker queue Jun 08 10:54:13 ack ericp Jun 08 10:54:13 ericP, you wanted to say that the SQL world was happy to hear "10 answers, don't know if there are more" and to say that asking for 11 is a great way to see if there are 10 or more Jun 08 10:54:16 * Zakim sees Yoshio on the speaker queue Jun 08 10:54:19 q+ do we want a percise upper bound or approx.? Jun 08 10:54:19 * Zakim KevinW, you typed too many words without commas; I suspect you forgot to start with 'to ...' Jun 08 10:54:19 EricP: arguing from the point of view of a straightforward implementation (both client and server) Jun 08 10:54:36 q+ Jun 08 10:54:36 * Zakim sees Yoshio, rob_ on the speaker queue Jun 08 10:54:43 ack yoshio Jun 08 10:54:43 Yoshio, you wanted to say "but then we need a way to specify the snapshot of the database" Jun 08 10:54:45 * Zakim sees rob_ on the speaker queue Jun 08 10:55:10 * DanC hears too much noise to understand yoshio Jun 08 10:55:13 (can't hear/understand_ Jun 08 10:55:35 yoshio, your voice is distorted Jun 08 10:55:44 Yoshio: but then we need a way to specify the snapshot of the database Jun 08 10:55:49 q+ Jun 08 10:55:49 * Zakim sees rob_, KevinW on the speaker queue Jun 08 10:56:03 ack rob Jun 08 10:56:03 * Zakim sees KevinW on the speaker queue Jun 08 10:56:11 I would not like the req to decide the (flag/number left) issue. There is little point to the req if it is foced to do the count as well. Jun 08 10:56:17 if the DB changes, the "11th" doesn't have any meaning Jun 08 10:56:35 RobS: what is understood a s a "result" Jun 08 10:56:40 +1 AndyS Jun 08 10:56:52 ack kevin Jun 08 10:56:52 * Zakim sees no one on the speaker queue Jun 08 10:57:16 DanC: ... matter of fact Jun 08 10:57:34 kevin: do we want an exact upper bound? could cause more impl burden on the server. Jun 08 10:58:11 DanC: does "upper bound" appeal to somebody Jun 08 10:58:25 to Kevin Jun 08 10:58:38 +1 on upper bound Jun 08 10:58:57 I like 3.10 as is Jun 08 10:59:07 * kendall too, fwiw. Jun 08 10:59:09 patH: DQL could, by requst, give a count of results Jun 08 10:59:33 I like 3.10 enough to support it. Jun 08 10:59:36 prefer 3.10a Jun 08 11:00:02 Pat - is that the SQL count() allowing aprox answers? If so, I see it as different Jun 08 11:00:03 I see 3.10 and 3.10a as disjoint Jun 08 11:00:03 +1 on 3.10a pref Jun 08 11:00:20 I agree with DaveB Jun 08 11:00:24 DanC: motivation to spend time on this is in discussing/ bounderaries with other groups Jun 08 11:00:29 AndyS: yes, that was it. Jun 08 11:00:32 yes, strictly speaking, 3.10 and 3.10a are not really variants. I think I'll separate them. Jun 08 11:00:34 3.10 & a they even have differnet titles :) Jun 08 11:00:45 * DaveB has to leave telcon Jun 08 11:01:07 yeah :) Jun 08 11:01:11 EricP's action continued (which one Eric?) Jun 08 11:01:11 +1 on split of 3.10 and 3.10a. I can see that they are disjoint. Jun 08 11:01:19 bye guys... Jun 08 11:01:21 There's probably some relationship between 3.10, 3.10a and streamability, I agree.
