Topic: CURI proposal
14:10:59 [Zakim]
-Jeremy
14:11:29 [Ralphs]
Ralph: I'm getting skepticism from the Team but I need to respond to the messages and explain that yes, we've considered all of the alternatives that people have mentioned
14:11:35 [Zakim]
+??P15
14:11:41 [Ralphs]
Ben: we may not be able to reach a consensus here before the WG F2F
14:11:44 [Ralphs]
zakim, ??p15 is Jeremy
14:11:44 [Zakim]
+Jeremy; got it
14:12:53 [benadida]
Ralph: I would prefer if we had a more definitive proposal in time for the F2F
14:14:07 [Ralphs]
Jeremy: I told my HP colleagues that Mark's CURI proposal addresses both the qname and the bnode issues
14:14:20 [Ralphs]
... and it's the least ugly of the alternatives we have considered
14:14:33 [Ralphs]
... I don't think any of the possibilities are really attractive
14:14:56 [Ralphs]
Ben: the ugliness only occurs when you actually use bnodes or qnames in an href
14:15:15 [Ralphs]
... i.e. only when you're trying to squeeze [octets] or using more complex RDF
14:15:42 [Ralphs]
Jeremy: some people point out that additional attributes have that same characteristic; you only see the comnplication when you need to use it
14:15:51 [Ralphs]
... but that feels to me like a larger learning curve
14:16:27 [Ralphs]
Ralph: I agree; learning more attributes seems more complicated than learning a square-bracket syntax
14:17:05 [Ralphs]
ACTION: Ben put notes in the Web from Boston discussion with Mark [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/10/11-swbp-minutes.html#action05]

14:18:03 [Ralphs]
Ben: some progress
14:18:09 [Ralphs]
... haven't finished all the examples yet
14:18:39 [Ralphs]
... by next week we hope to have some version of RDF/A spec based on these notes and on a CURI resolution
14:22:03 [Ralphs]
... let's work on 2 documents; (1) a primer on how to add metadata to an HTML document and (2) a formal specification of RDF/A
14:22:48 [Ralphs]
Ralph: I'd give priority to the formal specification of RDF/A as that's what Jeremy needs to show implementability and what I think the WG will need for the f2f
14:23:13 [Ralphs]
Jeremy: agree, but the primer will also be useful at the F2F so we should get some words in there also
14:23:40 [Ralphs]
... my priority for the WG is to get a new version of the XML Schema Datatypes document out, so this TF comes second in priority
14:24:43 [Ralphs]
ACTION: Ben summarize the question of semantics of the HTML role attribute and solicit feedback from RDF experts [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/10/04-swbp-minutes.html#action01]

14:25:36 [Ralphs]
(CC'd to public-rdf-in-xhtml task)
14:25:53 [Ralphs]
Ben: I hope to have a document for review over the weekend
14:26:07 [Ralphs]
... so we can discuss reviews at next Tuesday's telecon
14:26:14 [Ralphs]
... will coordinate with Mark on this

14:26:47 [Ralphs]
Ben: anything shocking yet in this draft?
14:26:53 [Ralphs]
Steven: no
14:27:41 [Ralphs]
Ben: in the "Metadata About Other Documents" example, we don't have a way to say "here's an image" and "here's some metadata about that image" without repeating the URI
14:27:48 [Ralphs]
... do we want to consider this case?
14:28:34 [Ralphs]
Jeremy: could we consider using href?
14:29:31 [Ralphs]
ACTION: Ben add repeating URI in IMG case to issues list
14:29:49 [Ralphs]
Steven: IMG is no longer empty in XHTML2
14:30:10 [Ralphs]
... the content replaces the ALT attribute; it's fallback if the image is not available
14:31:14 [Ralphs]
Ralph: I'm ok with adding this as an issue but one alternative is to repeat the URIs -- i.e. I'm not persuaded yet that this is a problem that we need to solve
14:31:31 [Steven]
<img src="photo2.jpg" href="photo2.jpg" rev="dc:author" content="Steven Pemberton" />
14:32:07 [Steven]
No, that doesn't work... rev doesn't take content="..."
14:32:28 [Ralphs]
Ben: I expect that this 2005-rdfa draft will evolve to become part of the primer
14:33:39 [Steven]
<img src="photo2.jpg" about="photo2.jpg" rel="dc:author" content="Steven Pemberton" />
14:34:31 [Ralphs]
Topic: Role attribute
14:35:10 [Ralphs]
Ben: Ivan Herman suggests we're trying to do to much in http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-in-xhtml-tf/2005Oct/0030.html
14:35:31 [Ralphs]
Steven: I don't agree with Ivan; if we can find a way to use it this will be an expressive addition

14:37:25 [Ralphs]
Steven: I had some trouble understanding the distinction Geoff Chappell is making in http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-in-xhtml-tf/2005Oct/0028.html
14:37:34 [Ralphs]
... need to think about this more
