Why should this group care what Hassan swears about? Beside Hassan never swears! ;-)

More seriously, I would rephrase CSMA's point number 2. by replacing the above star with:
"Hassan agrees with CSMA when he says that ...". Better yet, I would replace it with:
"The current BLD semantics of frames is at odds with assertion of multiple values for
a give field". There are other problems with BLD's frames when it comes to PRD's notion
of object. But this one is surely a major one.

Subject: [PRD] PRD TF telecon Tuesday 27 January
 

Teleconference W3C RIF WG
Production rules dialect (PRD) task force
27 January 2006

North America and Europe are in the Winter time:
1800 UTC, 1000 (West US) 1300 (East US) 1800 (London) 1900 (Paris)

Duration: *60 min*

*Proposed agenda*

1. Proposed PRD meeting in Paris Wednesday 11 February

2. Objects VS Frames (30 mn)
Hassan swears that the problematic of Objects VS Frames really reduces, indeed, the question of "methods" aside, to the semantics of assertion being addition of a new fact in the case of multi-valued attributes VS replacement in the case of mono-valued ones. This being ascertained, can we combine the benefits of the two proposed approaches (specific syntax for mono-valued attributes VS mono-valued attributes signaled only by use of specific action with replacement semantics) in a design that has the drawbacks of neither? 
- Discussion of proposed approaches (if you do not have an approach to propose, think of one! Hopefully, we will all think of the same :-)

3. PRD test cases (15 mn)

4. Scheduling work towards LC (15 mn)
- retro-planning from end of March

5. AOB
