Can't see on WIKI... (Referring to F2F) Sandro: suggests, for future draft, starting afresh for new use cases ChrisW: this would be second draft candidate use cases cmsa: this second draft would include new use cases as well as for old use cases that people feel weren't really taken into account Francois had also a couple of actions, but I don't see them in the telecon's agenda *ACTION:* UCR editors to create a new Wiki page for collecting 2nd draft UC candidates [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/03/07-rif-minutes.html#action33] Do I need to take care to link mine there, or will you, Allen? ChrisW: reasonable to get next use case draft out tomorrow for vote? ^vote^review^ Allen: If no further editing is needed, yes. Sandro: can then generate a frozen version cmsa: what about Axel's proposal? Hasn't undergone as much review as the others. ChrisW: Goal, to release this as new working draft by next telecon (March 14). *ACTION:* UCR editors prepare draft for review by Wednesday night and send email to the list when the draft is ready [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/03/07-rif-minutes.html#action34] ChrisW: assumes that review won't be a problem, and vote to accept will go through. cmsa: What is the process for review? Poll? ChrisW: No, just read and post comments. (Yes, Frank, Tracker has been set up -- but there are no specific plans to use it for anything yet.) sandro, you wanted to ask about section 1 sandro: discussion about section 1 cmsa: recollection is that section 1 does not seem ready. sandro: So frozen version should contain just section 2, plus stub on section 1, saying what will go there, eventually cmsa: proposal to start collecting requirements in an organized way, without having to redo already completed work. Proposal to set up format for requirements, have people enter already proposed requirements in format, have people vote on them (e.g., suggest subsets of requirements). sandro and ChrisW: [discussion about how much we can pin down the requirements, at this early phase]. +1 to what ChrisW said sandro: will have to open up discussion about design in order to more completely pin down the requirements. 5. Classification *ACTION:* Chris to start email discussion about what issues are "fuzzy" wrt phase 1 & 2 *[CONTINUED]* [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/03/07-rif-minutes.html#action35] Are the requirements linked to the relevant use cases? *ACTION:* JeffP, Hassan to review RAF pag *[CONTINUED]* [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/03/07-rif-minutes.html#action36] *ACTION:* Harold to explain technically the basis for interoperation between PR and Horn rules. What pure production rules are - item 2 on slides (slide 5) ?Syntactic and semantic extensions of Horn Logic?, points 2.1.1 - 2.1.3 *[DONE]* [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/03/07-rif-minutes.html#action37] *ACTION:* JeffP to propose slight extension to medical decision support UC. *[DONE]* [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/03/07-rif-minutes.html#action38] 6. OWL & RDF Compatibility *ACTION:* csma to send an email to make a distinction between OWL and RIF roles *[DROPPED]* [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/03/07-rif-minutes.html#action39] *ACTION:* Frank to make his point about semantics of production rules on the mailing list. *[CONTINUED]* [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/03/07-rif-minutes.html#action40] ChrisW: [Initiated discussion about OWL/RDF compatibility.] sandro: not caught up with the discussion, given all the other work. ChrisW: it's an important topic, so once we get through the use case work, we should try to be prepared for a discussion next week. cmsa: discussion between Francois and Bijan --- about requirements for reasoning in the RIF --- is also important. +1 ChrisW, cmsa: these are important for the design of the RIF. +1 Frank -- many of the questions about how RIF carries OWL are more generally about how RIF carries other languages. +1 +1 Frank: It won't be possible to map OWL to RIF without loss. cmsa: while not necessarily role of RIF to translate, according to charter, must at least specify in which cases mapping is or is not possible. FrankMcCabe: [said what he typed below: In essence: There is a difference between mapping and representing; mapping may be impossible, but representing should be possible.] Note on what the charter actually says, see http://www.w3.org/2005/rules/wg/charter#deliverables , "Deliverables: A W3C Recommendation on using this rule interchange format in combination with OWL." etc. There is a difference between mapping and representing. frank, if you could type your comment into the irc I believe mapping will be impossible for all interesting rule languages. However representing is more of a meta-level annotation and should be doable Ed: There are a bunch of things, such as transitive closure, that rules engines typically can't do. Is this what's meant by lack of compatibility? IanH: If we have semantic compatibility, may not be necessary to have a mapping. +1 IanH: Conversely, if there's no semantic compatibility, will be hard to construct mapping. +1 +1 +1 to Uli's comment Uli: Idea that ontologies and rules live in the same KB. In this case, mapping not really necessary. (people saying "+1" should probably make sure the IRC log reflects the statement you are agreeing with) +1 +1 +1 I agree with Uli's comment that it should be clear how OWL DL and RIF interoperate, not how to interchange OWL DL using RIF 7. AOB No other business to discuss.
