<HarryH> everyone needs to fillout the form from Ian

Convene GRDDL WG meeting of 2007-03-07T11:00-0500

Advocating

<Murray>, the form is for AC not members?

<HarryH> BrianS?

<brianS>i emailed the microformats list,

<brianS> i also got Operator to support some GRDDL

<brianS>nothing more at the moment

<Harry>, other advocacy ideas? popular XML dialects

<Danny>, working to get Profile URIs out there

<Danny>indifference in getting them set-up from the MF list

<Danny>the XMDPs need to mint a good profile URI

<john-l> Technical question: what happens when microformats and GRDDL interpret a document's content in conflicting ways?

<Danny>lack of profile URI doesn't seem to be a problem

<Danny>, create some bad formats

<Danny>, XFN has profile, but probably not GRDDLed

<HarryH> ACTION: Danja to update the ESW wiki to have list of profile URIs and a sort of check-box for which ones are GRDDL-enabled or not. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/03/07-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action01]

<danja> http://dannyayers.com/misc/microformats/soupdragon

<Danny>, created a test case to find issues

Convene GRDDL WG meeting of 2007-03-07T11:00-0500

Primer Document: Last Call?

<Harry>, primer document take-up

<Murray>, can give it a solid review

<Harry>, is looking for a co-editor on the Primer

<Jeremy>, can review it as well

<Harry>, needs to push the changes to the primer

<Harry>, people think the primer should go rec track? needs reviewer and an editorial changes

<HarryH> ACTION: Jeremy and Murray to review Primer after HarryH's adds in changs [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/03/07-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action02]

Use-Case Document: Going To Last Call?

Test Cases as Rec?

<Harry>, should the test cases go to rec?

<HarryH> Chime to edit the Test Cases.

<Harry>there is questions about normative, versus others

<Harry>help from jeremy?

<Jeremy>, i can help, but not co-edit

<John>, i can help test cases documents

<HarryH> Chime is definitely editor of doc.

<Chime>, order test cases, by normitive

<Harry>, base-param is normative

<Zakim> jjc, you wanted to mention OWL test approval process

<Chime>, can order them himself,. no need to do this now

<Jeremy>, on the OWL list got approved if two implementations passed it

<Jeremy>approval by software, only objections we discussed

<Chime>, good coverage by implementation

<Jeremy>, pending tests for a long time, until implementations caught-up. Then tests got approved quickly

<Chime>, do test cases cover all the issues

<Jeremy>, needs more work on the schema profile

<HarryH> Using EARL to generate HTMl from implementations.

<Harry>, this helps to show which tests pass, etc

<Harry>, for next week, which tests exist and which don't

<HarryH> ACTION: Chime to take pending tests for approval from agenda and see if at least 2 implementations pass them. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/03/07-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action03]

GRDDL Spec: Last Call

<HarryH> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-wg/2007Feb/0212.html

<Harry>, discussion about rel="transformation" issues when multiple values

<Murray>, sees the text as just fine... others mis-read it

<Murray>, sent some words to fix this normative issues

<HarryH> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-wg/2007Mar/0015.html

<Harry>, security issuses from multiple people

<HarryH> ACTION: Murray to resolve potential ambiguity with multiple values in transformations. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/03/07-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action04]

<Jeremy>, nothing new from Last Call....

<Jeremy>adding texts to specs, so implementations can reference the spec in dangerous places

<Jeremy>end users take the risks, but only after we give/list those risks

<Harry>, hard to document zero results as ok?

<Harry>, GRDDL agent can not produce no results based on local policy

<jjc> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-wg/2007Mar/0037

<Harry>and still pass the tests

<Murray>, can't pass the tests if there was no result

<Jeremy>, a conforming GRDDL agent that produces nothing, is worthless

<Jeremy>non-issue

<Chime>, conformance label requires GRDDL agents to produce a reult

<Chime>, if we are pushing conformance, then we should remove the ambiguity

<Harry>, GRDDL agent can alter local policy to produce results, or test cases go normative and then you need results

<chimezie> I prefer we have a rec track test document without scenarios where there are no results

<Jeremy>, doesn't think this should be a worry. Reality, people may or may not use the label ....

<Jeremy>mis-use of the label doesn't get them sued, so what is the benefit of labeling....

Jeremy, requiring a GRDDL agent to set secuirty policy to none

Harry, add that to the test case, so all agents must turn off secuirty policy before running tests.

Murray, useful to have a paragraph which describes how to set the secuirty to match output

<HarryH> ACTION: Chime adding sentence to Test Case Doc specifying that local security policy must be set to none before running tests [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/03/07-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action05]

<Harry>, emails and comments about Javascript developers

<HarryH> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-comments/2007JanMar/0068.html

<Harry> for javascript developers

<john-l> ... and basically any other language besides XSLT

<Harry> he wanted more guidance

<Chime>, his concerns were about non-normative texts

<Chime> be more specific about which languages supported
... there is reply to his comments in the archives

<Chime>impossible to implement a transform with JUST javascript

<Chime>, the output format issue language gave explicit examples with XSLTs

<Danny>, thinks it is impossible to implement directly in Javascript

<Danny> seperate document which describes how it should be done
... redirection, similar to the profiles

<chimezie> 1) Sections preceeding normative sections seemed to suggest the spec covered non-XSLT scenarios, but they don't 2) The output of transforms should either be only RDF/XML or at least associated with a mime-type

<Danny>, just leave it as it is

<Harry>, continue dialog with stefano, and get feedback

<danja> my latest blog comment on the matter - http://dannyayers.com/2007/03/03/grddl-and-language-neutrality

<Harry>, it was underspecifed by RDFa, you can output as HTML/RDFa, JSON, etc

<Harry> need more experience with non-XSLT

<chimezie> we would be faced with the same issue that XProc would if they attempted to accomodate non-workflow-oriented components in an XML Pipeline

<Jeremy>, XSLT2 implementations as well

<danja> chimezie, couldn't an XML pipeline include a Javascript component?

<Chime>, for a time we tried to specific a mimeType comming out

<Danny>., N3 output example, spec was silent on the final representation

<Chime>, greenboxes only refer to RDF-XML as output

<Harry>, i was to be an RDF graph not just RDF-XML

<Harry>as output

<Harry> rules in the spec that go against the WG decisions
... informative text to say the Graph can be RDF-XML, N3, etc

<chimezie> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-grddl-wg/2007Mar/0022.html

<chimezie> is the suggested change to accomodate mime-type-based parsing

<HarryH> ACTION: To deal with suggested changes for mime-type based parsing and RDF/XML issues in spec. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/03/07-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action06]

<Jeremy>, go through a couple quick tests?

<Jeremy> content-negotiation on language and mime-type

<Jeremy> is the merge of those two results correct?

<chimezie> I agree

<Jeremy> get all the representations and merge ALL the results? the spec is more about get one rep based on your preferences

<HarryH> ACTION: HarryH to update #langconneg test-case to deal with merge from different representations [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/03/07-grddl-wg-minutes.html#action07]

<Jeremy>, SVG test has a similar issue

<HarryH> Meeting adjourned

AJOURNED
