17:05:26 [alanr]: 189 not done
17:05:31 [m_schnei]: he did
17:05:42 [MartinD]: IanH: Action 179 seems to be complete

17:06:24 [IanH]: q?
17:06:33 [MartinD]: IanH: Action 189 - Alan says this is not done
17:06:46 [MartinD]: Alanr: action 189 should be next week
17:07:01 [MartinD]: InaH: Action 185 - should be done, if I remember correctly

17:08:56 [IanH]: q?
17:09:15 [MartinD]: ... this action should be made a bit clearer
17:09:57 [MartinD]: IanH: last week we agreed rough plan how this publication can happen and there is an action on how this should be implemented
17:10:04 [IanH]: q?
17:10:07 [msmith]: sandro, the context is at http://www.w3.org/2007/OWL/meeting/2008-09-03#Pending_actions
17:10:11 [MartinD]: ... probably this week's deadline was a bit optimistic
17:10:46 [MartinD]: Sandro: apparently, a joint recommendation is a good thing, if it can be achieved
17:10:49 [IanH]: q?
17:11:03 [MartinD]: ... there need to be two resolutions to publish (from two groups)
17:11:36 [MartinD]: IanH: if Sandro is the contact on both, it might be good to watch that the process is moving ahead, a kind of monitoring
17:11:51 [MartinD]: ... we will fix the action text later
17:12:01 [IanH]: q?

17:12:23 [ewallace]: ewallace has joined #owl
17:12:34 [MartinD]: ... no Bijan yet, so we need to check later what is the status of this action
17:12:51 [MartinD]: Subtopic: Reviewing
17:13:08 [MartinD]: IanH: thank you to all who reviewed documents and gave feedback, good job!
17:13:24 [IanH]: q?
17:13:32 [MartinD]: ... one exception is the Profile - not a fault of reviewers, but there is still some discussion ongoing
17:13:40 [MartinD]: ... hope to conclude this within few days
17:13:41 [bijan]: bijan has joined #owl
17:14:03 [MartinD]: ... according to the schedule from F2F meeting, we should publish the drafts by September 15...

17:14:18 [pfps]: pfps has joined #owl
17:14:20 [MartinD]: ... perhaps people working on the docs may say if this is still realistic
17:14:21 [IanH]: q?
17:14:55 [bijan]: I'm nowhere near done my review, but I'm comfortable publishing without it (Syntax is a big document!)
17:14:55 [IanH]: q?
17:15:04 [m_schnei]: zakim, mute me
17:15:04 [Zakim]: m_schnei should now be muted
17:15:05 [MartinD]: m_schnei: let's wait for the next stage, in my case we will finish the review by Friday... but there will be some potential points that may need further discussion
17:15:08 [IanH]: q?
17:15:17 [m_schnei]: q-
17:15:21 [MartinD]: IanH: we can wait a few days to give people time to review things properly
17:15:36 [MartinD]: ... any objections to delaying the publication by a few days?
17:15:44 [IanH]: q?
17:15:46 [bmotik]: I'll try to handle the reviews of Syntax this weekend
17:15:58 [MartinD]: ... what about syntax? do we have a doc that reflects reviews by next week
17:16:00 [pfps]: it's done.
17:16:03 [bmotik]: Dnoe
17:16:10 [MartinD]: ... model theoretic semantics is done
17:16:13 [IanH]: q?
17:16:17 [MartinD]: ... what about RDF?
17:16:24 [pfps]: essentially done, needs a little bit more work
17:16:38 [pfps]: yes, I expect to be done later today
17:16:42 [MartinD]: ... is it realistic to publish it next week?

17:18:32 [pfps]: q+
17:18:36 [IanH]: q?
17:18:38 [MartinD]: ... we're in good shape, so we should be in position to vote on publication of these docs next week
17:18:41 [IanH]: ack pfps
17:19:02 [MartinD]: pfps: those people who did reviews should perhaps check that their comments are adequately reslved/addressed
17:19:18 [IanH]: q?
17:19:35 [Zakim]: +Alan
17:19:39 [MartinD]: IanH: typically, these reaction are happening, but reviewers should perhaps check that this is really happening
17:19:40 [IanH]: q?
17:19:51 [IanH]: q?
17:20:37 [IanH]: q?
17:20:49 [MartinD]: ... when editors finish updates according to the reviews, we should send a msg to WG mailing list to alert people who want to re-check...
17:20:59 [MartinD]: ... so that we can hold the vote next week
17:21:07 [IanH]: q?
17:21:19 [MartinD]: ... editors should let Ian know about the status

17:22:22 [MartinD]: ... not quite sure what to do with my review, but it might act as a basis for WG review
17:22:25 [sandro]: q+ RIF Review for OWL 2
17:22:25 [alanr]: goal would be to see what can/can't be represented in owl2
17:22:28 [IanH]: q?
17:22:31 [sandro]: q+ to ask about RIF Review for OWL 2
17:22:32 [MartinD]: ... there are more than one document

17:22:38 [m_schnei]: AFAIK, only the SKOS reference is in Last Call
17:22:38 [MartinD]: IanH: any volunteers?

17:23:38 [IanH]: q?
17:23:58 [MartinD]: m_schnei: working on a review, but not sure if there should be an "OWL WG" official

17:24:17 [IanH]: q?
17:24:21 [IanH]: ack alanr
17:24:23 [MartinD]: IanH: if Peter and Michael finish their reviews, we may consider them both and discuss (if needed)
17:24:48 [MartinD]: Alan: what aspects are you focusing on? e.g. to what extent SKOS relates to OWL profile(s)
17:25:00 [MartinD]: pfps: this has been partly done, details to follow later
17:25:18 [MartinD]: m_schnei: i'm interrested in RDF semantics and those factors
17:25:30 [IanH]: q?
17:25:47 [m_schnei]: zakim, mute me
17:25:47 [Zakim]: m_schnei should now be muted
17:25:49 [MartinD]: Alan: if you are willing to contribute your reviews, we can see if we agree on a common statement/review

17:26:54 [MartinD]: Sandro: suggestion for agenda amendment
17:27:16 [pfps]: actually, I helped write it, so I"m not sure that I *reviewed* it
17:27:38 [MartinD]: ... RIF doc review was done mostly with OWL 1 focus, maybe there can be a check on whether OWL WG is still happy with it
17:27:41 [IanH]: q?
17:27:49 [pfps]: at first blush, I can't think of any changes required (but don't let me bias the review) :-)
17:27:50 [MartinD]: ... someone other than Peter who helped writing it

17:29:02 [MartinD]: Sandro: it's about next few days, so it may be a bit tough to do it within deadlines
17:29:24 [MartinD]: IanH: not many people volunteering, perhaps we need an email to reach to other people

17:33:02 [IanH]: q?
17:33:21 [MartinD]: bcuencagrau: we have basic features in the profile

17:40:22 [IanH]: q?
17:40:31 [sandro]: the text starting "An OWL 2 RL...."
17:40:33 [MartinD]: IanH: I will update the conformance document with the modified text and I will send an email how was this implemented, so that people can comment
17:40:56 [IanH]: q?
17:40:59 [IanH]: ack alanr
17:41:02 [IanH]: q?
17:41:05 [MartinD]: ... proposals from the author re words like could, should,... will be made into the text too
17:41:19 [sandro]: Unknown, Reason=
17:41:19 [sandro]: - Resource Limits Reached
17:41:19 [sandro]: - Finished Incomplete Algorithm
17:41:19 [sandro]: - Unexpected Error
17:41:26 [MartinD]: Alan: yesterday we discussed with Sandro - there are two meanings of "unknown"
17:41:37 [MartinD]: ... unable to complete, e.g. due to resource limitations
17:41:50 [IanH]: q?
17:41:58 [MartinD]: ... another is due to finished but not guaranteed entailment alg.
17:42:22 [IanH]: q?
17:42:27 [MartinD]: ... then, if the answer doesn't make sense... we may not have a terminating message
17:42:36 [sandro]: q+ is this a test case question or an API question?
17:42:40 [IanH]: q?
17:42:45 [sandro]: q+ to ask is this a test case question or an API question?
17:42:56 [MartinD]: ... a proposal for something that would make clear that alg. ran out of resources vs. not knowing the answer
17:43:09 [m_schnei]: "Out of Resource" sounds pretty technical for a formal spec
17:43:16 [IanH]: q?
17:43:21 [IanH]: ack sandro
17:43:21 [Zakim]: sandro, you wanted to ask is this a test case question or an API question?
17:43:23 [MartinD]: ... even if these messages are present in OWL 1, there is no reason why to keep previous language
17:43:37 [MartinD]: Sandro: I pasted the three meanings of "unknown" above
17:44:05 [MartinD]: ... not sure how useful this is; it can help in test cases, but not sure how valuable this would be in API
17:44:05 [m_schnei]: {True, False, Unknown} is better than {True,False} in Prolog
17:44:27 [sandro]: I DONT think it helps in the test cases.
17:44:29 [IanH]: q?
17:44:38 [alanr]: q+
17:44:39 [MartinD]: IanH: one can perhaps distinguish even more cases to complement values of true and false
17:44:41 [IanH]: q?
17:44:46 [IanH]: ack alanr
17:44:50 [MartinD]: ... any opinions from implementers
17:45:30 [IanH]: q?
17:45:35 [MartinD]: ... one case where it makes sense is when the check hasn't been done, so it maybe undesirable to return unknow
17:45:49 [sandro]: "Completed-Unknown"
17:45:54 [IanH]: q?
17:46:21 [IanH]: q?
17:46:22 [m_schnei]: q+
17:46:25 [sandro]: Ian: {True, False, UnexpectedError, CompletedComputationButNoAnswer }

17:46:28 [pfps]: =0
17:46:32 [sandro]: +1 four cases for OWL RL
17:46:36 [pfps]: +0
17:47:03 [MartinD]: m_schnei: one can put comments re conformance, e.g. for OWL Full it cannot be avoided that "unknown" will come out
17:47:11 [IanH]: q?
17:47:21 [m_schnei]: zakim, mute me
17:47:21 [Zakim]: m_schnei should now be muted

17:47:44 [IanH]: ack m_schnei
17:47:47 [MartinD]: IanH: I will have another pass on the doc and see if people like it
17:47:49 [IanH]: q?
17:48:22 [MartinD]: Sandro: we should say that in general, one should not be returning "unknown", which may pose a conflict with an OWL test case?
17:48:35 [MartinD]: ... what about query answering issues?
17:49:10 [IanH]: q?
17:49:25 [MartinD]: IanH: we can mention something like XML query answering and show how these entailment checks would impact on QA... rather than having a complete new sections on QA
17:49:40 [MartinD]: Subtopic: Issue 144
17:49:41 [IanH]: q?
17:49:48 [Zhe]: q+
17:49:53 [sandro]: SCRIBE-CORRECTION: No, what I said was that there is nothing wrong with returning "unknown" in OWL RL.
17:49:55 [IanH]: q?
17:49:58 [IanH]: ack Zhe
17:50:05 [alanr]: also note: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-owl-comments/2008Jul/0002.html
17:50:12 [MartinD]: Zhe: we discussed this in the WG before...
17:50:32 [MartinD]: ... if we don't include the base triple we may put unnecessary burden on implementations
17:50:33 [IanH]: q?
17:50:33 [bmotik]: q+
17:50:35 [m_schnei]: q+
17:50:39 [pfps]: q+
17:50:42 [bmotik]: Zakim, unmute me
17:50:42 [Zakim]: bmotik should no longer be muted
17:50:48 [MartinD]: ... we are suggesting to simply including it, which makes life easier
17:50:50 [IanH]: q?
17:50:54 [IanH]: ack bmotik
17:50:55 [alanr]: q+
17:51:20 [MartinD]: Boris: seems like reasonable thing to do but the problem is that an axiom is not represented as one thing vs. two things
17:51:39 [MartinD]: ... what if you find both - base axiom and the reified one... then what?
17:52:00 [MartinD]: ... we may decide e.g. on forgeting the base one if reified axiom is found
17:52:06 [IanH]: q?
17:52:08 [MartinD]: ... this may cause some mapping issues
17:52:35 [MartinD]: ... then there is another issue = including the triple does not tell you what to do with it or if it is not find
17:53:00 [MartinD]: ... something along lines "from reified triple define the original"
17:53:05 [IanH]: q?
17:53:11 [m_schnei]: zakim, unmute me
17:53:11 [Zakim]: m_schnei was not muted, m_schnei
17:53:23 [MartinD]: ... should we start adding original triples if we find a reified one
17:53:39 [bcuencagrau]: Zakim, mute me
17:53:39 [Zakim]: bcuencagrau was already muted, bcuencagrau
17:53:48 [MartinD]: ... finally, I don't think this will occur often enough, so that it can cause problems with efficiency
17:53:54 [IanH]: q?
17:54:09 [IanH]: ack m_schnei
17:54:25 [MartinD]: m_schnei: without the triples it seems more stable?
17:54:39 [pfps]: Boris has made my points
17:54:41 [pfps]: q-
17:54:52 [MartinD]: ... would current RDF serializations...
17:55:31 [MartinD]: ... if it is not always avoidable to have triple in (if you want to annotate the triple without having access to the orig. ontology), would you define new ontology?
17:55:33 [IanH]: q?
17:55:47 [MartinD]: ... there might arise problems with axiom closure
17:55:58 [MartinD]: ... I would not be in favour, not necessary IMHO
17:56:07 [IanH]: q?
17:56:17 [m_schnei]: zakim, unmute me
17:56:17 [Zakim]: m_schnei was not muted, m_schnei
17:56:22 [bmotik]: q+
17:56:39 [MartinD]: Alan: what about missing base triple -- there is a syntax for it, so no major issue
17:57:08 [IanH]: q?
17:57:12 [pfps]: q+
17:57:13 [MartinD]: ... regarding michael's comment, not sure this would be a really problem, perhaps only in some profiles?
17:57:18 [IanH]: ack alanr
17:57:18 [m_schnei]: of course, you can have two ontology files, one having the spo, the other having the reification, and then having the second import the first
17:57:20 [Zhe]: q+
17:57:23 [pfps]: q+ to ask why Alan's example is monotonic
17:57:31 [pfps]: s/monotonic/nonmonotonic/
17:57:33 [MartinD]: ... issues are not really with performance, more about monotonicity...
17:57:41 [IanH]: ack bmotik
17:58:00 [msmith]: q+
17:58:27 [alanr]: last statement re OWL RL seems wrong. OWL RL has specific syntax.
17:58:31 [MartinD]: Boris: if triple is not there, one can reverse-parse it... but what would OWL-RL parser do with this... if you have RDF graph without this triple, you are missing on some inferences
17:58:43 [alanr]: conformance allows OWL RL entailment checked to take and RDF
17:58:49 [alanr]: s/checked/checker/
17:58:49 [MartinD]: ... there is no guarantee the triple will be included (as it should...
17:58:53 [IanH]: q?
17:59:18 [m_schnei]: yes, OWL Full infers the spo
17:59:28 [IanH]: q?
17:59:33 [MartinD]: ... then about monotonicity, we already have in OWL Full semantics, there is a possibility to get to non-reified version by means of reasoning...
17:59:34 [alanr]: where is there that reification implies base triple?
17:59:36 [alanr]: wasn't in RDF
17:59:57 [MartinD]: pfps: don't think Alan's example is non-mononotonic
18:00:00 [IanH]: q?
18:00:03 [IanH]: ack pfps
18:00:03 [Zakim]: pfps, you wanted to ask why Alan's example is monotonic
18:00:06 [bmotik]: q+
18:00:08 [IanH]: ack Zhe
18:00:09 [MartinD]: Zhe: still want to stress the performance issue
18:00:11 [IanH]: q?
18:00:23 [MartinD]: ... if an application wants to use this type of annotation
18:00:49 [MartinD]: ... you can imagine this is an additional burden to keep checking on info on every single triple
18:00:51 [pfps]: q+ to do a back-of-the-envelope calculation of the relative costs
18:01:19 [MartinD]: ... if base triple is out, it's possible, it's not efficient... if there is a mix of annotated and non-annotated axioms, what should we do?
18:01:20 [uli]: Zhe, perhaps this can be overcome by some clever data structures?
18:01:26 [IanH]: q?
18:01:37 [MartinD]: ... should we accept axiom with annotation and forget the ones without annotation?
18:01:50 [IanH]: q?
18:01:57 [IanH]: ack msmith
18:02:05 [MartinD]: msmith: axiom with and without annotation are structurally different
18:02:12 [bmotik]: +1 to msmith
18:02:18 [IanH]: q?
18:02:22 [MartinD]: ... this is already in the spect
18:02:26 [IanH]: ack bmotik
18:02:51 [MartinD]: Boris: we can address the concerns with performance without altering the core
18:03:27 [MartinD]: ... people can produce RDF graphs... it is safer to assume that one gets RDF graph that needs checking if things are in it
18:03:40 [MartinD]: ... we can think about ways to handle certain common cases
18:03:42 [IanH]: q?
18:04:05 [alanr]: Q: How does RDF semantics 4.18 avoid asserting positive triple for negative property assertion?
18:04:07 [MartinD]: ... the biggest problem with reification is their occurrence in different part of file = problem for parsers that need to trace this
18:04:10 [IanH]: q?
18:04:31 [MartinD]: ... suggestion: implementation should put reified triples together, one after another...
18:04:40 [alanr]: we don't have control of this in the rdf world
18:04:45 [IanH]: q?
18:04:46 [MartinD]: ... this would allow more efficient handling
18:05:27 [alanr]: rdf pipes, etc
18:05:31 [MartinD]: ... of course, we don't have any control over this... but OWL things are written in files, so we may recommend it?
18:05:41 [IanH]: q?
18:05:46 [IanH]: ack pfps
18:05:46 [Zakim]: pfps, you wanted to do a back-of-the-envelope calculation of the relative costs
18:05:50 [IanH]: q?
18:05:57 [MartinD]: Peter: there was a point about performance issue,
18:06:09 [MartinD]: ... reading a triple is expensive, even compared to running rules
18:06:19 [IanH]: q?
18:06:21 [alanr]: a whole lot? 1/3 of # axioms that are annotated
18:06:23 [alanr]: http://pipes.deri.org/
18:06:29 [bmotik]: q+
18:06:40 [MartinD]: ... if we had more triples, we are likely to increase the amount of I/O required
18:06:41 [IanH]: q?
18:06:49 [MartinD]: Zhe: maybe by 20-30%
18:07:15 [IanH]: q?
18:07:21 [MartinD]: Peter: yes, but that's quite substantial... unless we do an actual analysis, I am not prepared to support that we would save actual resources
18:08:03 [alanr]: joins more expensive than io
18:08:05 [MartinD]: Zhe: if annotation axioms does not include the base triple, we need to do additional joins in the tables...
18:08:09 [m_schnei]: q+
18:08:38 [pfps]: I'm not prepared to admit that in a decent implementation that rule processing is more exensive than adding triples
18:08:43 [IanH]: q?
18:08:47 [MartinD]: IanH: hard to establish what takes more time - loading triples into table or doing joins....
18:09:18 [MartinD]: Boris: briefly about RDF pipes... unlikely that you cannot ship related triples
18:09:24 [IanH]: q?
18:09:29 [IanH]: ack bmotik
18:09:37 [alanr]: pipes: not if they go through some hash table as part of their processing
18:09:46 [alanr]: which is likely
18:10:17 [alanr]: anyways, implementation has to handle worse case
18:10:22 [MartinD]: ... if we are processing arbitrary RDF graph, if we have guarantees that in reasonable cases the triples would be close, one can implement a thing that would basically read X triples and replace them with the base triple (if that's needed)
18:10:38 [IanH]: q?
18:10:39 [Zakim]: -Alan
18:10:44 [IanH]: q?
18:10:56 [MartinD]: .... if we make sure the triples are close to each, we can leave the spec as it is, and you have control over your implementation
18:11:22 [IanH]: q?
18:11:29 [MartinD]: IanH: what about doing the thing in tables, in a similar way as you said, filling table once?
18:11:35 [Zakim]: +Alan
18:11:55 [MartinD]: Boris: true but one may actually save on filling and re-filling the table because the axiom comes later?
18:11:59 [IanH]: q?
18:12:02 [m_schnei]: zakim, unmute me
18:12:02 [Zakim]: m_schnei was not muted, m_schnei
18:12:26 [MartinD]: IanH: sounds interesting... appropriate to take discussion offline for the interested parties, so that they come up with a proposal to resolve this...
18:12:35 [IanH]: q?
18:12:37 [MartinD]: ... ideally by not having to have base triples?
18:12:42 [IanH]: ack m_schnei
18:12:50 [MartinD]: m_schnei: I/O is perhaps not interesting
18:13:11 [IanH]: q?
18:13:20 [MartinD]: ... if we find the version of the triple but not the original triple... what is *wrong* with this (disregarding I/O performance)
18:13:37 [MartinD]: IanH: there is no reverse mapping for OWL Full though
18:13:44 [IanH]: q?
18:13:48 [MartinD]: m_schnei: I mean OWL DL
18:13:53 [IanH]: q?
18:14:00 [m_schnei]: q-
18:14:04 [m_schnei]: zakim, mute me
18:14:04 [Zakim]: m_schnei should now be muted
18:14:14 [MartinD]: IanH: but the discussion is now about OWL RL, so ... let's take this offline and see if things are resolved this way
18:14:21 [MartinD]: Subtopic: Issue 109
18:14:34 [IanH]: q?
18:14:37 [MartinD]: IanH: last time we were close to resolving namespaces in this issue?
18:14:49 [IanH]: q?
18:14:49 [MartinD]: ... no conclusions yet
18:15:24 [alanr]: :)
18:15:31 [MartinD]: Sandro: we are waiting for getting some objective... we need to find technical differences to rule one way or another
18:16:11 [MartinD]: IanH: so at the end of discussion we will somehow need to flip the coin, unless there is an agreement between protagonists
18:16:19 [MartinD]: Sandro: do we have pros and cons?
18:16:28 [Zakim]: +??P5
18:16:31 [IanH]: q?
18:16:38 [MartinD]: IanH: we looked at it from different angles and the point is in different opinions
18:17:01 [bijan]: bijan has joined #owl
18:17:04 [MartinD]: Alan: is this an architectural issue?
18:17:16 [bijan]: I won't accept TAG arbitration
18:17:22 [MartinD]: ... if this is on stake, why not bringing some else in?
18:17:25 [bijan]: zakim, who is here
18:17:25 [Zakim]: bijan, you need to end that query with '?'
18:17:35 [bijan]: zakim, who is here?
18:17:35 [Zakim]: On the phone I see MartinD (muted), Sandro, IanH, bmotik, Zhe, m_schnei (muted), Achille, uli (muted), bcuencagrau (muted), baojie, msmith, Peter_Patel-Schneider, Alan, ??P5
18:17:38 [Zakim]: On IRC I see bijan, pfps, ewallace, msmith, Achille, uli, Zhe, bcuencagrau, m_schnei, bmotik, IanH, RRSAgent, Zakim, MartinD, baojie, sandro, alanr, trackbot

18:17:46 [bijan]: q+
18:17:51 [IanH]: q?
18:18:12 [MartinD]: ... is there a suggestion where we can ask for ideas? e.g. XML WG
18:18:35 [IanH]: I would listen to TAG opinion
18:18:38 [MartinD]: Alan: do we need more time to this? next week?
18:18:54 [alanr]: yes
18:18:58 [IanH]: q?
18:19:02 [IanH]: ack bijan
18:19:37 [MartinD]: Bijan: curious about these situations, there should be some evidence which we don't have at the moment... mere judgments are not really making much difference here
18:19:53 [MartinD]: IanH: in the end there will have to be a vote on this in WG
18:20:52 [MartinD]: ... so it's really about other members of WG to make up their minds and in voting go one way or another... so far it's mainly W3C and Manchester objecting (with most being indifferent)
18:20:54 [alanr]: I object to that
18:21:02 [IanH]: q?
18:21:07 [MartinD]: ... so what about that coin idea = if no decision reached
18:21:51 [MartinD]: ... when do we expect to make this decision
18:22:04 [MartinD]: Alan: why don't we see what happens next week?
18:22:29 [MartinD]: Bijan: the issue is that one can hardly expect to get new information to change mind
18:22:41 [IanH]: q?
18:22:58 [MartinD]: Alan: it's not about changing minds but about other people getting information to understand what's going on
18:23:26 [MartinD]: IanH: let's wait until the next week if additional information appears, if not, just call for a vote
18:23:38 [IanH]: q?

18:24:58 [IanH]: q?
18:25:01 [bmotik]: There is an editor's note
18:25:08 [m_schnei]: PFPS: owl:dateTime would be the save choice
18:25:16 [pfps]: s/save/safe/
18:25:19 [MartinD]: ... this would be in syntax, Boris says it would there
18:25:55 [MartinD]: Alan: (?) what is the definition of punning at the moment?
18:25:58 [IanH]: q?
18:26:10 [bijan]: I think it's what peter says it was
18:26:11 [m_schnei]: shouldn't there be an email discussion in the past about the "which punning" question?
18:26:28 [MartinD]: ... there are a few definitions going, so which is the one we subscribe to? to explain it to people
18:26:40 [MartinD]: IanH: other issues are probably longer to discuss
