[DONE] ACTION: Ben to ask Shane about DOCTYPE and validation. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/03/27-rdfa-minutes.html#action10]
15:12:02 [Ralph]
Ben: we were talking about changing 'SHOULD have a DOCTYPE' to 'MAY have a DOCTYPE'
15:12:10 [Steven]
+1
15:12:12 [Steven]
Yes
15:12:17 [Ralph]
... Shane made the point that 'SHOULD' is already optional, so why change anything?
15:12:27 [Ralph]
Manu: SHOULD is stronger than MAY
15:12:41 [Ralph]
... it says "you really really should do this unless you have a good reason not to'
15:12:58 [Ralph]
Shane: we're saying that if you want to validate your document you SHOULD have a DOCTYPE
15:13:11 [Steven]
But don't we use the DOCTYPE for follow your nose?
15:13:13 [Ralph]
Ben: what if in the next year the W3C validater no longer requires DOCTYPE?
15:13:23 [Ralph]
... do we make our spec dependent on the current state of validation?
15:13:55 [Steven]
How about: SHOULD use a DOCTYPE, but if not then version="XHTML+RDFa 1.0"
15:14:05 [Ralph]
Mark: SHOULD has wiggle room
15:14:33 [Ralph]
Shane: MAY is a very strange thing to say when you're talking about document conformance
15:14:39 [Ralph]
... MAY is used to talk about implementation conformance
15:14:53 [Ralph]
Ben: I think we should leave it as SHOULD
15:15:09 [Ralph]
... and possibly add a note commenting about validation
15:15:19 [Steven]
I am happy with either
15:15:25 [Ralph]
Ralph: what does XHTML1 say about DOCTYPE?
15:15:55 [Ralph]
Shane: DOCTYPE is required in XHTML 1.1 and SHOULD in XHTML 1.1 2nd edition
15:16:12 [Ralph]
Ben: so we shouldn't weaken the requirements from the host language
15:16:19 [Ralph]
... our response to Tim can point to the host language
15:16:24 [msporny]
+1 for SHOULD
15:17:34 [Steven]
I wish there were an alternative for defining character entities
15:17:35 [benadida]
PROPOSE: that we respond to TimBL regarding DOCTYPE as follows 'SHOULD leaves enough wiggle room for when validation no longer requires DOCTYPE'
15:17:39 [ShaneM]
And also point out that "SHOULD" is optional already.
15:17:52 [msporny]
+1
15:18:20 [Ralph]
Steven: do we want to say that if there is no DOCTYPE then there must be @version="XHTML+RDFa"
15:18:44 [Ralph]
Ralph: no. I thought we agreed last week that we'd update the namespace document
15:19:02 [Ralph]
Shane: no objection to updating the namespace document but it does nothing for announcement
15:19:30 [Ralph]
... what does something for announcement is if we agree that all XHTML languages have these new attributes
15:20:08 [Ralph]
... and that has impact outside the XHTML2 WG
15:20:34 [Ralph]
Steven: I think we're capable of changing the namespace document
15:20:51 [Ralph]
... we could even turn the namespace document into an RDFa document
15:21:25 [benadida]
PROPOSE: that we respond to TimBL regarding DOCTYPE as follows 'SHOULD leaves enough wiggle room for when validation no longer requires DOCTYPE', that we *not* require HTML version=, and that we update the XHTML namespace document accordingly.
15:21:37 [Steven]
+1
15:22:21 [benadida]
RESOLVED: that we respond to TimBL regarding DOCTYPE as follows 'SHOULD leaves enough wiggle room for when validation no longer requires DOCTYPE', that we *not* require HTML version=, and that we update the XHTML namespace document accordingly.

15:30:43 [Ralph]
Ben: poll around the table?
15:31:04 [Ralph]
Steven: I'm in favor of a new name. I posted a list of ~50. I didn't propose a favorite
15:31:39 [Ralph]
Mark: [each of us] needs to argue in favor of one position
15:31:52 [Ralph]
Steven: I'd be happy with @kind
15:32:07 [Ralph]
Ben: from mail, @kind and @typeof seem to be bubbling up high
15:32:53 [Ralph]
Steven: @typeof has the same prior use issues that @instanceof had
15:33:15 [Ralph]
Mark: lots of suggestions have been made and each has had problems.
15:33:37 [Ralph]
... I think @instanceof is fine
15:34:19 [Ralph]
... the only alternative that works for me is @typeof
15:35:57 [Ralph]
... people know what "type" means even if they're not fully conversant in set theory
15:36:01 [Ralph]
Manu: @typeof
15:36:26 [Ralph]
... I consider how easy it is to explain to a normal Web developer
15:36:43 [Ralph]
... I've never really liked @instanceof
15:37:30 [Steven]
<p contains="cal:Vevent">
15:38:17 [Steven]
q+
15:38:31 [Ralph]
Ralph: @typeof feels like the wrong direction to me
15:39:00 [Ralph]
... but I don't feel strongly between @instanceof and @typeof
15:39:05 [Ralph]
... I think we could justify either
15:39:18 [Ralph]
Shane: @typeof is OK with me
15:39:27 [Ralph]
Steven: we're addressing the microformats crowd
15:39:44 [Ralph]
... it's nice of the words suggest something without having to refer to RDF Concepts
15:39:52 [Ralph]
s/Concepts/concepts/
15:40:34 [Ralph]
Mark: but we should be careful not to say something that's wrong in the world of RDF concepts
15:40:52 [Ralph]
... e.g. 'contains' doesn't have an RDF interpretation
15:42:09 [Ralph]
Ben: both @kind and @typeof are superior to @instanceof
15:43:15 [Ralph]
... I'm ok with @typeof but single-word things are nice
15:43:33 [Ralph]
... @kind is less likely to receive complaints
15:44:15 [Ralph]
... and telling people it's 'kind like mankind'
15:44:25 [Ralph]
[Personkind :) ]
15:44:46 [Ralph]
Mark: I don't doubt that @kind can be explained
15:44:57 [Ralph]
... and isn't this very close to the Germanic ?
15:45:34 [Ralph]
... do we even want to have to send the one-line 'kind like mankind' mail?
15:46:01 [Ralph]
... I think @kind would generate more questions than @typeof
15:47:07 [Ralph]
Steven: I prefer @typeof to @instanceof
15:48:20 [Ralph]
PROPOSE: change @instanceof to @typeof

ACTION: Mark and Shane update Syntax to change @instanceof to @typeof
15:51:08 [Ralph]
ACTION: Manu update test cases to change @instanceof to @typeof
15:51:10 [Steven]
I abstain because I think it is a bad choice, but I don't expect anything I suggest will gain traction, since I've already tried so many
15:52:45 [Ralph]
Ben: does this require another Last Call?
15:53:28 [Ralph]
Ralph: if we believe there will be objections then it's less costly to do another Last Call than to discover objections in CR
15:53:37 [Ralph]
Shane: we should get Yahoo!'s feedback
15:53:49 [ShaneM]
I would like to see a new test case that uses @instanceof and should fail
15:54:05 [Ralph]
ACTION: Ben write to Micah for feedback on change to @typeof

Topic: ISSUE-101: garbage-collecting useless triples (or not?)
15:57:24 [Ralph]
-> http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/track/issues/101 issue 101
15:58:01 [Ralph]
Ben: "late binding" is better terminology than "garbage collection", as Shane noted
15:58:21 [ShaneM]
I have to leave, but for the record I am in favor of generating these triples even if they are meaningless. Or rather, I don't mind either way.
15:58:37 [ShaneM]
+q
15:58:55 [Zakim]
-ShaneM
15:59:15 [Ralph]
Mark: the irony is frustrating as it only comes from Ivan's notes
15:59:46 [Ralph]
... it was purely by chance that I discovered that by moving something outside of the recursion we could eliminate these triples
16:00:19 [Ralph]
... this came as a side-effect of fixing a bug uncovered during SWD WG review
16:01:42 [Ralph]
... it's incorrect to say this is impossible to handle this in XSLT
16:02:21 [Ralph]
... I am, however, worried about introducing other problems if we change this
16:03:13 [Ralph]
Ben: my parser is conformant in every way except this one; I've just never made this change
16:03:23 [Ralph]
Manu: I prefer keeping the current rule set as is
16:04:07 [markbirbeck]
q+
16:04:37 [Ralph]
... I don't see a use case for all these nested @rels
16:05:19 [Ralph]
... I don't see a use case for building up triples with all these meaningless bnodes
16:06:11 [Ralph]
... I don't see sufficient benefits to this change
16:06:49 [Ralph]
Mark: while I agree with Manu, there's an opposing view
16:07:16 [Ralph]
... one of the consequences of the error that I fixed is that when there are multiple @property as the child of a hanging triple you repeat the hanging thing
16:07:47 [Ralph]
... you could argue that if we're leaving things as they are then it's not a big leap to asking us to eliminate _all_ redundant triples
16:08:10 [Ralph]
... I wonder if we're setting ourselves up to something
16:08:24 [Ralph]
... it may be more honest to admit there's stuff lying around
16:08:57 [Ralph]
Ben: it could seem inconsistent to keep this flag here to get rid of redundant triples yet keep redundant triples elsewhere
16:09:25 [Ralph]
s/keep redundant/keep duplicate/
16:09:34 [Ralph]
Steven: I don't have a strong feeling either way
16:10:56 [Ralph]
Ralph: I'm concerned that if we make this change we should do more testing
16:11:26 [msporny]
q+
16:12:11 [Ralph]
Ben: if this is an issue that is really needling a few people and it takes us a few weeks to test, that seems reasonable to me
16:12:38 [Ralph]
Mark: the extra complexity in the rules is not to do with this issue but to deal with a bug in the recursion spotted by the SWD review
16:12:55 [Ralph]
... I noted that my fix to the recursion could also address something Ivan noted
16:13:25 [Ralph]
Ben: the complexity may just be a perception
16:14:06 [Ralph]
... taking 3 weeks to resolve this may be worthwhile
16:14:29 [Ralph]
Mark: the completion of incomplete triples can be made conditional
16:14:44 [Ralph]
... could make a tiny change to _always_ complete triples
16:15:10 [Ralph]
... this might have less risk of new bugs but wouldn't produce a big simplification
16:15:24 [Ralph]
Manu: we should be very careful about why we're making this change
16:15:36 [Ralph]
... and I don't see that a change here will reduce the complexity of the rules
16:16:06 [Ralph]
... the only argument [that persuades me] is that people will be building up their triples in this particular way by creating lots of bnodes
16:16:18 [Ralph]
... if it doesn't simplify the rules then it won't simplify the implmentation
16:16:29 [Ralph]
Ben: but we have an explicit comment from Micah to that effect
16:17:04 [Steven]
Regrets for next week
16:17:09 [Ralph]
Mark: but [Micah's comment] mis-identifies where the complexity is coming from
16:17:23 [Ralph]
... Micah is seeing the recursion as complex in order to get rid of extra triples
16:17:42 [Ralph]
... but the recursion is there to handle intervening markup
16:18:10 [Ralph]
... my reference to 'extra triples' in the spec is misleading people to think that's the reason for the recursion
16:18:12 [Steven]
gotta go
16:18:46 [Ralph]
... I still think it's an easy change but as we all know, any change brings a risk of introducing new bugs
16:18:59 [Ralph]
Ralph: and I'm ok with 3 weeks to test if we believe the change is useful
16:19:06 [Ralph]
Ben: I'm also ok with 3 weeks
16:19:14 [Ralph]
... I feel strongly that this could be misleading
16:19:31 [Ralph]
... my concern was always about authors and what could be confusing to them
16:19:46 [Ralph]
... DanBri seems to think this is actually _wrong_
16:20:59 [Ralph]
Ben: Steven and Shane don't seem to feel strongly either way
16:21:24 [Ralph]
Mark: if there's no other reason to repeat Last Call, I'd leave the spec as is
16:23:45 [Ralph]
Ralph: I'm mostly concerned about leaving adequate testing time if we make this change
16:24:00 [Ralph]
... in particular, we won't likely get a new cleanroom implementation
16:24:13 [Ralph]
Ben: I'm willing to do a new clean room implementation
16:24:27 [Ralph]
Manu: I don't see a strong reason to change
16:27:22 [Zakim]
-markbirbeck
16:27:41 [Ralph]

PROPOSED: Modify processing rules per ISSUE-101 to process and produce triples consisting of only bnodes
16:35:05 [Ralph]
Ralph: Shane and Mark seem to lean on the side of keeping the triples
16:35:22 [Ralph]
Ralph: Steven seems to be abstaining
16:35:44 [Ralph]
Ralph: I'm ok with the change if Ben does a cleanroom implementation and we add time to test
16:35:57 [benadida]
+1 to proposal
16:37:21 [msporny]
+1, only if the group is okay with extending testing for another 3-4 weeks and Ben has a cleanroom implementation. I don't particularly agree that the change is helpful, but others feel that this will help authors.
16:37:47 [Ralph]
RESOLVED: Modify processing rules per ISSUE-101 to process bnode-only triples
16:38:15 [Ralph]
Ralph: we don't actually know if Steven, Mark, and Shane agree to the +3 weeks so they'll have to object if that's the case
