RE: DCAT Sprint - Tuesday 5th February 21:00 UTC - feature: dcat:distibution.

Notes from the meeting are here https://www.w3.org/2019/02/05-dxwgdcat-minutes

General consensus was that this was a worthwhile effort with quite a bit of progress made and consensus built.  The two resolutions in the minutes should be self-explanatory, but essentially we're backing away/loosening the idea of informational equivalence - indeed we intend to make it clearer that the DCAT vocabulary allows publishers quite a wide discretion on what are seen distributions of a dataset - more  than just formats (which is what the 2014 spec listed as examples).  We think this acknowledges existing practice, reflecting the reality of variation in different domains addressing different needs.

Github was used to assign the various issues to different people to formulate pull requests to the draft over the next few days/weeks - obviously the broad DXWG membership have an opportunity to review and comment on those changes.

We also addressed a number of the other, smaller issues that had arisen around distribution - these have also been assigned in github also.

The next working session/sprint was discussed - this will be next Wednesday 13 February 21:00 UTC and replace next week's DCAT sub-group meeting.  Topic will be versioning.  Details, webex etc and discussion/review info will be circulated in advance.

As discussed via doodle poll/DCAT subgroup meeting, the first DCAT sprint will take place next Tuesday 5th February 2100 UTC till 23:00 UTC.  This will be a working meeting looking at the outstanding issues (and any associated concerns raised in external or internal feedback) and will aim to pull together appropriate conclusions and text to be contributed to the working draft.  The current idea will be to work around a google doc that should allow effective collaboration from all participants, though other ideas are welcome.

The webex details for the meeting have already been sent out to the WG mail (https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-dxwg-wg/2019Jan/0617.html ).

The remaining open issues in github are listed at https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_w3c_dxwg_issues-3Fq-3Dis-253Aissue-2Blabel-253Adcat-253ADistribution-2Bis-253Aopen&d=DwIFAg&c=4ZIZThykDLcoWk-GVjSLmy8-1Cr1I4FWIvbLFebwKgY&r=t5gpott7XAZ7tlIjMNZaUyC23xIXjJl1zwC0b26wrUA&m=Qr-am7jq95nnW-6TmfEXRck_kkqCYeDX-7pS4a2jHB0&s=dM5NCJ6CkAofgtLkqDtNyzAZTbXWMUItLqqiMVJ3Zeg&e= .  If anyone (potential attendee or not) wants to add more please make sure they are tagged with dcat:distribution.

There are obvious topics around "informationally equivalent", packages/zips, positioning of distributions with respect to services as well as others that don't necessarily stand out from the detail - the meeting can decide how we work through this, what the priority is, what will benefit from discussion.

Note:  The regular DCAT meeting will still be held on Wednesday 6th February at 21:00 UTC for 1 hr as usual, to cover broader progress discussions, feedback handling etc
