Report on the 11th TREE CG Meeting and planning for 2024

Hi all,

Due to a lot of us being either super busy, either already on holidays, 
we’ve held a TREE CG meeting with only Sander Van Dooren and I. 
Nevertheless it has been very productive.

  * We got a new version of the spec out ratifying minor changes we’ve 
done together in a read-through session

  * We decided on*dates for the 8 next TREE CG meetings* in 2024. The 
invites were sent out to the mailing list. Please do check whether they 
get added to your schedules. If this wouldn’t be the case, they’re at 14 
CET, always on a Wednesday: the 10th and 24th of January, the 7th of 
February, the 6st of March, the 3d of April, the 24th of April, the 22d 
of May and the 19th of June - on the usual link that has been added to 
all invites.

  * We have been discussing ViewDescriptions, the link to DCAT-AP, the 
difference between Distribution and DataService, ... and of course the 
long standing issue on graph vs. search trees. We have made great 
progress there that Sander and I will present on the 12th TREE CG 
meeting - If you feel adventurous, you can try to decode our slide notes 
taken during our brainstorm:

- The gist: we would only allow search trees from now on, with the 
backwards compatible caveat that you MUST prune backlinks of 1 deep, so 
we can still support double linked lists.

Kind regards,

Pieter
