Chris: During winter break at MIT, there will be a mini-conference, with which we could combine our F2F5 in Cambridge.
<LeoraMorgenstern> I'm afraid the minutes will reflect that as +1's for Antarctica, not for Banff!
<sandro> csma: Banff is likely to cause some conflict with W3C AC meeting.
Axel: ESWC would be doable.
Sandro: W3C mini-conference may be difficult, room-wise.
<LeoraMorgenstern> Chris, perhaps IBM could host it?
DavidR: Bristol is remote possibility as well.
<AxelPolleres> As mentioned, we think about it co-located with ESWC, but we need to check back first.
Chris: IBM is remote possibility as well.
<PAULv> Qu: what numbers of people would be expected at F2F5/6?
Chris: 30-40 people.
Sandro: People should face each other (not: classroom-style).
Harold: 'U-shape'.

<sandro> Yay Harold! Yay Leora!!
UC->Req for 1, 6, 9 are ready.
<DavidHirtle> http://www.w3.org/2005/rules/wg/wiki/UCR/Introduction
<csma> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rif-wg/2006Oct/0003.html
Intro text on Allen: Updated wiki page (mentioned in email).
Says, there are some reqs from the charter (XML etc.).
Tried to capture comments of Christian.
<ChrisW> http://www.w3.org/2005/rules/wg/wiki/UCR/Introduction
<DaveReynolds> Looks good to me
Chris: New paragraph: Looks good.
Leora, Chris: Would be good to say which reqs are motivated by UCs, functional, chartered.
Allen: Wait a bit until we've more data.
Christian: Regarding functional reqs, should wait until finished analysis of UCs.
Chris: Perhaps 'reverse engineer' which ones are fctl, which UC-motivated.
<sandro> [ Allen, I have one problem with the new paragraph which is the use of the definite article before "RIF". Does your browser display web pages written in the HTML or the XHTML, or both? Did you ever program in the LISP? .... :-) ]
<ChrisW> I'll still be watching the IRC out of the corner of my eye
Christian: For my UC, Dave's comment was taken into account.
<LeoraMorgenstern> http://www.w3.org/2005/rules/wg/wiki/UCR/Ruleset_Integration_for_Medical_Decision_Support
<Allen> [Sandro, I will change it]
UC6: Leora: Put assumptions in the links. Ex: Embedded metadata.
<Allen> [Sandro: Actually the usage "The RIF" occurs all over the place. Do you want to get rid of that everywhere?]
<AxelPolleres> sorry, my headset was mutet... strange
Sandro: Part of Leora's text is for the discussion, perhaps put in italics.
Christian: Ex: the first UC: You should clarify the req from the point of view of this UC.
Leora: It's vague what "Different intended semantics" intends.
Christian: All others who do UC->Req linkage should propose new wording for Req if original Req is unclear.
Leora: Could be difficult if everybody does their own interpretation.
Sandro: Send email to the list proposing new Req wordings.
Christian: Problem with 'XML data' Req: Unclear what it really means.
Leora: Understanding for OWL compatibility: If you look at KB in OWL and there would be a way of translating it.
Christian: Maybe shared in another way?
Leora: Because don't want to lose 'OWLness'?
Christian: OWL fragments as black
boxes?
... How to cover any kind of data.
Sandro: Translate to RIF.
Christian: In most general sense: RIF would provide alternate serialization of OWL and RDF?
Sandro: Yes, from charter.
Allen: Besides clarifying what Req is, UC may give subcase of general Req: Another reason why clarification is important.
<FrankMcCabe> +q
DaveR: RDF data:
... Did post what it means. Gist: If rule languages carries
RDF-compatible data, there need to be a mapping.
Christian: Agree for XML
types.
... Maybe replicate for RDF and OWL types.
... Difficult, however, for data in (whatever) format, because
for XML there is XML Schema.
<sandro> FrankMcCabe, can you mute?
DAve
Dave: You still need to explain what correspondence is.
Christian: Doesn't imply that RIF is serialization for RDF or OWL. Instead, give user a way to specify a data format (e.g. Integer), without necessarily translator.
Sandro: RIF can convey rule aspects of other languages, e.g. RDF facts.
Christian: Take action on clarifying certain Reqs. Maybe others can try to explain them.
<DaveReynolds> Christian - perhaps you respond to my suggested clarification already posted?
Christian: From standardization point of view it's not a good idea to capture something that can already be done another spec.
<csma> +1 to Dave
Leora: Coverage not so clear:
either ... or ...
... Other issue: how does whole ruleset look like? Eg.
disjunction. Vague descriptions.
<DaveReynolds> +1 to Leora, these high level UCs should not motivate individual coverage requirements
<PAULv> PAULv - apologies - must drop off call now
Allen: Not prohibited to use rules in English.
UC 9: Harold:
http://www.w3.org/2005/rules/wg/wiki/UCR/BPEL_Orchestration_of_Rule-Based_Web_Services
Christian: Should we look more carefully at the rules, and the need for their interchange?
Gary: Yes, some absolute need for interchange a weak point, but not only for this UC.
Allen: Looks OK. But some Req may be missing, which we would then need to add or send to Harold.
Christian: We need to move this to email discussion.
Christian: Axel is editor, but we have not decided yet on a possible ontology (OWL) language for RIFRAF.
Axel: Perhaps we could also
continue to edit the document.
... But others should jump in and help.
<sandro> pointer, Frank?
<LeoraMorgenstern> So would I
Christian: Can we have a task force to do an ontology. Who will help?
<sandro> task force for OWL version of RIF RAF: Sandro, Frank, Allen, ....
<sandro> and Axel, but not so much in the next couple weeks.
<sandro> and Leora
<FrankMcCabe> Pointer to RIFRAF questionnaire on teh WIKI:
<FrankMcCabe> http://www.w3.org/2005/rules/wg/wiki/Rulesystem_Arrangement_Framework
Christian: Can Axel to edit.
<FrankMcCabe> See section 6
Axel: Not until Oct 20.
<sandro> ACTION: Leora to start organizing RIFRAF Ontology Task Force (using public-rif-wg mailing list) [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/10/03-rif-minutes.html#action15]
<rifbot> Created ACTION-139 - Start organizing RIFRAF Ontology Task Force (using public-rif-wg mailing list) [on Leora Morgenstern - due 2006-10-10].
Christian: We have to move to XML syntax.
<LeoraMorgenstern> Axel, okay, that's fine.
<LeoraMorgenstern> yes, I'll keep you in the loop
Christian: DanC's email raised a
number of questions. Other implementations will surely raise
more questions: Extensibility, types, etc.
... Large part of upcoming F2F4.
<sandro> ACTION: Harold to construct a trial RIF implementation in J-Drew [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/10/03-rif-minutes.html#action16]
<rifbot> Created ACTION-140 - Construct a trial RIF implementation in J-Drew [on Harold Boley - due 2006-10-10].
<hak> I can show what I have done with my Jacc-bases XML annotation for RIF generation
Christian: Should be made iteratively, because of variations in syntax.
Hassan: Will release implementation once approved.
<sandro> ACTION: Hassan to release Jacc (current version, while he keeps working on his improvements) [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/10/03-rif-minutes.html#action17]
<rifbot> Created ACTION-141 - Release Jacc (current version, while he keeps working on his improvements) [on Hassan Ait-Kaci - due 2006-10-10].
<sandro> ACTION: Hassan to produce an IRL implementation of RIF [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/10/03-rif-minutes.html#action18]
<rifbot> Created ACTION-142 - Produce an IRL implementation of RIF [on Hassan Ait-Kaci - due 2006-10-10].
<sandro> +1 adjourn
