Morph Call - 22nd April 10:00 UTC

Hi all,

We will have the next meeting of the OntoLex Morph group next Tuesday 
the 22nd April at 10:00 UTC (12pm Berlin time).

I went through the draft and made quite a few changes but there are 
still some issues that I think we need to discuss before we go ahead 
with a public review

  * There is a note in Section 3.2 that recommends the use of NFD
    Unicode normalization. While this is well motivated, it contradicts
    the RDF spec
    <https://www.w3.org/TR/rdf11-concepts/#section-Graph-Literal>, which
    recommends NFC normalisation.
  * I am not sure how the 'involves' property is intended to work. It
    links rules to morphs, but does not say which form a morph is
    participating in. As such, I think this leads to ambiguity that
    could make this modelling ineffective in practice.
  * The comparison with the `decomp` module in Section 5.1 is quite
    questionable. The decomp module can currently capture examples such
    as Example 17 in the spec and it is not clear to what extent the
    modelling introduced in the new module improves on the existing
    modelling.
  * As Matteo's comment in Example 20, shows it doesn't seem that the
    word formation modelling in Section 5.2 works for most examples. My
    feeling is that the idea of "inflection slot" from Section 4.3 needs
    to be generalised to the case of word formation as well.

Talk to you all on Zoom next week:
