Using RIF for Mapping

<AxelPolleres> I have prepared some 5 slides to explain the RIF liaison.

<Ashok> Axel's slides http://esw.w3.org/topic/Rdb2RdfXG?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=RIF4RDB2RDF.pdf

Axel presentation on RIF for mapping

LOT OF NOISE ON THE PHONE

Many attempts to isolate cause of problem

Zakim could not detect any noise!

<AxelPolleres> it seems to be a more fundamental problem with the bridge then.

<AxelPolleres> should we continue via IRC chat at least?

<Ashok> I think we should abandon this call.

<Ashok> Please look at Axel's foils and the document I sent out

<AxelPolleres> shall we postpone the RIF discussion to next time? you migfht want to look at the slides and post opinions per mail

<AxelPolleres> My idea is:

<AxelPolleres> We should put on the charter proposal for a WG that such a WG should define a RIF dialect for describing RDB2RDF mappings.

<AxelPolleres> ... possibly with an own/adapted presentation syntax, but also with a RIF compatible XML syntax.

Axel could you please post these points in mail?

<AxelPolleres> yes!

<Ashok> Telcon abandoned due to phone problems.
