Re: JSON-LD context URI

No, leave Jeremie out, it would just mess up things. Send me everything, and I will simply update the file on the W3C site. But not today:-)

If yes, than it must be a dereferenceable URI even for the FPWD; if it is only text, then it is not a show stopper, procedurally. That being said, I think it would be better to do it for real; I am not sure how long it will take for a next version of the model document (our focus will probably shift for a while) and implementers may already experiment with JSON-LD. Better provide something already now. (In which case the URI in the text should also be 'active'.)

The community group baked this notion in from the beginning, such as not having a version or date in the URI on the very sensible recommendation of Dan Brickley and his experience with FOAF, amongst others.

Thus the workaround was to include both context and ontology in the same document.  As JSON-LD is increasingly popular, I'm sure that the issue as to context URIs could be solved in the general case as a recommended best practice.

I personally would be very surprised if there's any pushback, but it would be both polite and encourage continued engagement to do so.

I mean: are the /ns/oa.* files up-to-date? In any case, the HTML page must be updated, referring to the current state; please provide Doug or I with a new version.
