Disposition of Last Call Comments

This e-mail is for archive purposes. It contains references to all the 
comments received in the two Last Call periods and the responses given.

(The Last Call for comments was initially made 15/8/08 to 14/9/08. The 
second last call period was 14/11/08 - 5/12/08. Most comments were 
received and dealt with in the first period. the second last call 
reflected the various changes made as a result).

This list does not include references to comments related to typos and 
minor editorial changes which have all been corrected/implemented. Where 
references are made to editors' drafts, the changes highlighted are 
expected to be maintained in the next published version of the relevant 
doc.

Confusion surrounding multiple displaytext/icon elements
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-powderwg/2008Sep/0004.html

Text clarified and now reads:
"User agents MAY display the text and/or icon to end users in any way 
deemed appropriate. Since a DR can contain any number of descriptorset 
elements and therefore any number of displaytext and displayicon 
elements, exactly how, or whether, these are displayed is up to the 
application. As a result, DR publishers are strongly advised to include 
no more than one displaytext and displayicon per DR."

Commented on the Formal Semantics document 
(http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/WD-powder-formal-20080815/)

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-powderwg/2008Sep/0013.html 
This contained many substantial (and welcome) comments which were dealt 
with in full.

Opera made two comments:
1. That 'Arbitrary RDF' should not be supported in POWDER as this 
entails including an RDF processor in a POWDER Processor.

Resolved yes
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/member-powderwg/2008Oct/0015.html

2. That we should retain mention of HTTP Link: as this is likely to be 
formalised.
resolved yes: It remains in the DR doc but is flagged as informative 
since, at the time of writing, the relevant IETF document is still an 
Internet Draft. See 
http://www.w3.org/2007/powder/Group/powder-dr/20090204-diff.html#httplink

This is not a Last Call comment as such (it pre-dates the LC period) 
however it was an important input. The end result was to change from 
suggesting a @rel value of powder to @describedby and defining two Media 
Types for POWDER and POWDER-S. See

The question surrounded whether an rdfs;seeAlso property annotated the 
class or created a triple for each described URI.

Last in thread: 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-powderwg/2008Sep/0035.html

The formal doc is very precise in saying:
"seealso, label, comment: Each of these elements is transformed into an 
annotation of the OWL class using the term from the rdfs vocabulary with 
which it shares a local name." See

Queried our submission to IESG for MIME types using text/powder+xml
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-powderwg/2008Dec/0011.html

Initially we suggested that this was not an error. Eric Prud'hommeaux 
stepped in and helped out a great deal so that the Media Type 
registration was correctly formatted. To cut a very long thread short, 
see 
http://www.w3.org/2007/powder/Group/powder-dr/20090204-diff.html#appB. 
Philippe le Hegaret is now handling the submission which will be made 
once the relevant docs are in TR space.
