<scribe> ACTION: seanb to create the template for test cases in the wiki [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/19-swd-minutes.html#action04] [DONE]

<aliman> discussion of presentation information and defining the scope of SKOS

<TomB> http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/wiki/SkosTestTemplate

Tom: Discussion on SKOS implementation on list
... postpone till next week

<scribe> ACTION: Ralph to update SKOS pages to point to UCR [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/05-swd-minutes.html#action01] [DONE]

<RalphS> Re: [SKOS] Links to SKOS UCR WD [ACTION completed]

-- Issue-26: RelationshipsBetweenLabels (http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/track/issues/26)

Tom: Talked with Guus; he wants to follow up on the proposal
... any comments, yet?

Antoine: Usability issues

Issue-33: Grouping Construct (http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/track/issues/33)

Alistair: Made a proposal, waiting for feedback
... to sum up: discussed two well known ways of display
... alphabetic or systematic
... proposed therefore two statements

sorry I got no signals, here :(

can't here anyone

<RalphS> scribenick: Ralhp

<RalphS> scribenick: RalphS

Alistair: I proposed the statement "The WG MAY publish an algorithm to generate a systematic display"

<aliman> Styles and Periods

<aliman> <styles and periods by region>

<aliman> <The Islamic World>

<aliman> Saracenic

<aliman> pre-Islamic

<aliman> <Islamic World dynastic styles and periods>

<aliman> Orthodox Caliphate

<aliman> Umayyad

<aliman> Abbasid

Alistair: so taking Antoine's challenge example with nested node labels,
... if we accept the resolution for grouping constructs you could specify an algorith to generate this nesting display
... many thesauri may have to generate this display in parallel anyway because there are so many techniques for doing so
... we could propose an algorithm for generating a default display
... but many thesauri may choose to send their own display information outside of SKOS because they have their own preferred display

<scribe> scribenick: mhausenblas

Bernard: What style of information in SKOS

Alistair: Algorithm for default generation, but do not expect SKOS to do everything
... requirements are to represent the model

<aliman> http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/wiki/SkosDesign/PresentationInformation

Tom: Aim is to agree on statements?

<aliman> http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/wiki/SKOS/Semantics/Grouping

<RalphS> Alistair: I am proposing SKOS/Semantics/Grouping as the resolution for ISSUE-33

<aliman> http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/wiki/SkosDesign/PresentationInformation

<scribe> ACTION: Alistair to post the proposed resolution to ISSUE-33 and systematic display to the list [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/06/26-swd-minutes.html#action04]

Tom: Discussion on relation foaf:Person and skos:Concept - http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-swd-wg/2007Jun/0115.html
... any comments?

Antoine: Kjetil wants to link tag to description and/or person
... might be possible to do via defined property

Alistair: Daniel and I had a discussion some while ago
... some kind of solution is layers of indirections
... we have not got any UC for this req

<Antoine> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-swd-wg/2007Jun/0077.html

Alistair: we should put it on the agenda, anyway
... question also tackles if we stay within OWL-DL

Tom: No core issue ... Antoine?

Antoine: For example in the medical domain, I gathered some interest

<RalphS> Clay: Librarians would be interested in this capability as well

Alistair: In scope
... it is important (cf. design patterns)

Tom: So, we put SKOS semantics on the agenda

Bern: Is it really in scope or better have it as a note

<Zakim> aliman, you wanted to say something about the SKOS semantics doc and to comment on scope

<Zakim> Bern, you wanted to ask if this is in scope

Alistair: Informative document preferred

<RalphS> Alistair: design patterns could be part of the informative documentaiton

<RalphS> Chair: Tom

3. RECIPES

See Recipes

<scribe> ACTION: Ralph propose resolution to Recipe issue 1.3 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/04/24-swd-minutes.html#action09] [CONTINUES]

4. VOCABULARY MANAGEMENT

See Vocabulary Management

Current draft is http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/wiki/VocabMgtDraft

See Discussion on URLs and URIs

Elisa: We use URIs always, not URLs
... issues: ownership, permanence, etc.
... we use some of the onto URI from the DAML project and encountered problems
... they seem to no longer work

Ralph: MIT now hosts DAML.org

Elisa: E.g. with OWL-S
... somehow you get to the time onto (from J. Pan)
... a question about commitment
... many discussion on semantic-web@w3
... Idea is to come up with a short list
... of the issues, make a survey
... for now: gather ideas

Tom: What kind of process to apply?
... are telecons good for brainstorming?
... given the limited time
... not - better through mailing list

<Zakim> RalphS, you wanted to ask what "no longer work" means

Elisa: I'd like to use the telecon for raising awareness

Tom: Suggest to point the group to a Wiki page, beforehand
... citing from IRC while discussion
... Might be good to have a default text
... to sum up issues to focus the discussion

<RalphS> Elisa, you suggested that some ontologies on daml.org were no longer working. Could you followup, please, and let me know if there are HTTP-level issues (i.e. server problems) or data obsolescence issues (i.e. a schema or ontology document has gone too far out of date)

5. RDFa

Tom:Ben has reported about the current status via mailing list

<RalphS> An Update on RDFa Schedule and Docs
