as a true record.

continue the following without discussion:

ACTION: DanC owner of issue 'yes or no questions' (was pending protocol
doc)
ACTION: KendallC expose our walking tour data to SPARQL querying
clients
ACTION EricP: find logistics re F2F5 at tech plenary in Boston March 28
Feb - 4 Mar (2 days). Some WG preference to Mon/Tue of that week.

comments on agenda? I'm afraid it's long. Please review it carefully,
since the record from last week is messy. I might have dropped an
action you care about or something.



2. XML Results format

 SPARQL Variable Binding Results XML Format
 http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/rf1/
 $Revision: 1.12 $ of $Date: 2004/12/20 14:39:55 $

ACTION EricP: publish XML result set document
(hmm... publishing moratorium 20 Dec 2004 - 4 Jan 2005...)


3. Protocol Spec

 http://monkeyfist.com/kendall/sparql-protocol-simplex/

ACTION: EricP to publish "SPARQL Protocol for RDF" pending approval from Kendall, TomA and AndyS

for my edification, how manyof Kendall, TomA, and AndyS
approve publication of what's there now, v 1.8 2004/12/06 19:22:10 ?
Is it sufficiently clear how you'll get the ball thru all 3
of them, EricP?


4. Test suite maintenance

ACTION: SteveH is willing to adapt his testing infrastructure to
generate input/output RDF/XML and typed nodes into manifest file

we declared this done last time:
ACTION EricP: come up with a specification for the "non-XML" syntax
(may be turtle)
in light of http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/df1/
but it's not linked from
  http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/tests/README.html

ACTION DaveB: propose replacement for tests that have ?foo, ?Bar
Proposed replacement tests for those tests with ?foo, ?Bar Dave Beckett (Friday, 17 December)
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg/2004OctDec/0517.html

PROPOSED: to update tests/data/examples/ex2-4a.rq per 0517


5. UNSAID
  http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/issues#unsaid

UNSAID drafted and mapped to SQL Eric Prud'hommeaux (Friday, 10 December)
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg/2004OctDec/0447.html

a test re unsaid and inference
  http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg/2004OctDec/0538.html


6. Disjunction
  http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/issues#disjunction

ACTION: EricP migrate some Algae UnionDisjunciton test cases
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg/2004OctDec/0464.html

any reaction, Steve?

ACTION: SteveH own (i.e. propose resolution to) disjunction issue


7. SPARQL SOURCE Issue

ACTION DaveB: update http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/tests/data/source-named/ w.r.t http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg/2004OctDec/0421.html

ACTION: JanneS propose text for hard failure in the protocol draft

ACTION: DanC suggest formal definitions for SOURCE


8. issue languageProtocolName
 http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/issues#languageProtocolName

Let's close an issue, shall we?

PROPOSED: SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language
 this will likely involve actions on several editors to update titles,
 abstracts, intros. Editors will please consider the impact before
 the telcon.


9. SPARQL syntax, QL pub plans

Where are we on integrating PatH's comments?

and timb's comments...
ACTION: EricP to deal with http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg/2004OctDec/0387.html, perhaps by proposing something to the WG.

ACTION SimonR: propose test case for scalar constraint with syntax
uniform to graph constraints
some comment from PatH
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg/2004OctDec/0535.html

ACTION: Simon to counter-propose something re unbound results
(records are messy... we might have alread done this...)

I wonder about these issues
 http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/issues#cascadedQueries

In case we want to publish before our 11 Jan meeting,
I'm putting this proposal in the agenda so that everybody
has ~24 hours to think it over:

PROPOSED: to publish http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/rq23/
  $Revision: 1.160 $
  plus any edits agreed by AndyS and PatH
  provided EricP agrees to serve as publication contact
