20:05:28 [DanC-AIM]
Zakim misses ralph, I guess.
20:08:19 [TBray]
Dan, you going to get onto the phone?
20:09:25 [DanC-AIM]
Not sure.
20:10:54 [TBray]
wondering on your thoughts on trying to re-use rel= and type= for RDDL... I gave up on it
20:11:06 [TBray]
rel= and type= on <html:a I mean
20:13:58 [DanC-AIM]
I'd have to try it out in practice, code it up, to have much of a opinion
20:14:54 [TBray]
there's some fuzz in the X?HTML specs as to whether it's supposed to be a NAME, and how you can have new values other than the precooked ones
20:15:10 [TBray]
depends on the profile= if I understand it
20:16:07 [TBray]
check correspondence from Sandro in my recent posting of my minimal RDDL alternative

20:24:54 [Ian]
NW: Finding approved.
20:25:49 [Ian]

NW: We could also give community 7 days and then turn on PR machinery.
20:28:15 [Ian]
PC: I'm ok if the message is "This is a finding from W3C's TAG."
20:29:24 [Ian]

20:29:35 [Ian]
IJ: I will add such a disclaimer.
20:30:06 [Ian]

20:58:03 [Ian]

q+ NW
21:00:41 [Ian]
q-
21:00:50 [Ian]
TB: Can we close issue 30?
21:00:53 [Ian]
IJ: No, need a finding.
21:01:25 [Ian]
DO: I think CL text is a survey but not a position.
21:01:57 [Ian]
DO: I am pleased that CL included some suggsetions.
21:02:26 [Ian]
TB: I think that what is missing is a discussion of some of the problems:
21:02:37 [Ian]
a) Do you optimize for case where both parties know vocabulary?
21:02:44 [Ian]
b) Optimize for short or long message case?
21:02:53 [Ian]
c) Optimize for dense/sparse markup case?
21:03:05 [Ian]
TB: On the face, it seems that it's at least difficult to hit a sweet spot that works well for all cases.
21:03:24 [Ian]
DO: It would be useful to document the decision tree graph.
21:04:22 [Ian]
For (a), the other side of the coin is "does it need to be self-describing?"
21:05:02 [Ian]
TB: I don't think people are talking about binhex-ing data.
21:05:24 [Ian]
DO: XML-as-binary v. Binary-in-XML --- are these clearly separable?
21:05:27 [Ian]
TB: I think so.
21:05:49 [Ian]
TB: There are people who would like to jam multimedia into XML messages who are otherwise perfectly happy with the syntax of XML.
21:06:13 [Ian]
DO: Perhaps there's a fourth axis about including binary info in XML.
21:06:25 [Ian]
TB: I was hoping Schema would provide a lightweight way to include binary info.
21:06:41 [Ian]
TB: You have to do a lot of declaration machinery to say that a piece of content is binhexed.
21:07:24 [Ian]
TB: What I would add to the survey is solution space.
21:07:43 [Ian]
TB: I think W3C shouldn't do anything until there's a proposal that can cover a substantial part of the solution space.
21:08:25 [Ian]
Action TB: Write to www-tag with his thoughts on adding to survey.
21:09:08 [Norm]
Ian: under URIEquivalence-15 you describe TBLs action wrt generic metadata as "completed"
21:09:36 [Ian]
He did his action.
21:09:38 [Norm]
Oh, but maybe it is. Nevermind.
21:09:56 [Ian]

See email from Larry Masinter
21:13:24 [Ian]
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2003Feb/0090.html
21:14:43 [Ian]
TB: I think that it's but tone of note needs to be revised: don't use unobviously different URIs to talk about the same thing.
21:14:55 [Ian]
Action TB: Do another draft of URI Comparision bearing in mind DC comments from ftf meeting.
21:15:03 [Ian]
(I.e., DC presentation)
21:15:47 [Ian]
IJ: I will make sure draft findnig is back in agenda.
21:16:46 [Ian]
TB: I will have this done by the end of this month.
