Open issue with no Keyword

<johnarwe_> http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6191

John: Unclarity in the spec regarding a COSMOS test case. Does MS implementation read the text a different way?
... Issue is whether documentAliases are allowed to contain relative URIs.
... Meaning of "URI prefix" in the spec--does it allow relative URIs

<johnarwe_> smlif 5.4.2 defines rule binding, on rulealias defers to uri prefix matching (defined by smlif not by rfc3986)

<johnarwe_> smlif 5.4.1 defines URI prefix, in this passage: Two URIs, one called the prefix, and one called the target participate in URI prefix matching. The target is said to match the prefix if and only if the target, truncated to the length of the prefix, is equal to the prefix as defined in section 5.3.1 URI equality.

<johnarwe_> If we interpret URIs in that passage to mean "the URI production of RFC 3986" then it implicitly says the URIs are absolute

<johnarwe_> (based on 3986 sections 3 and 4.1) in 3, URI production, scheme is required. in 4.1, a URI ref is defined as a URI or a relative ref

<johnarwe_> smlif 5.4.2 calls both rulealias and documentalias values URI prefixes: The ruleBinding element is used in SML-IF to express rule bindings. In any given binding the set of rule documents is that subset of rule documents in the interchange model with an alias that matches the URI prefix given by the content of the ruleAlias element. The set of model documents in the binding is that subset of the documents in the interchange model with an alias that matches t

Kumar: Actual content could be relative URI, absolutized via [baseURi]: therefore logical value is always an absolute URI.
...Kumar: actual content of documentAlias / ruleAlias

<johnarwe_> "actual content" refers to value of markup. comparison would be done after transformation to absolute URI.

Kumar: Add in 5.4.2 a non-normative:

<johnarwe_> concrete proposal draft: smlif 5.4.2, betw existing parag 2 and 3: Note: Since the URI prefixes specified as rule and document aliases are aliases, they are subject to all of the processing for aliases as described in [5.3.3].

<johnarwe_> (might also append to that draft): For example, if they are relative references then they would be transformed to absolute URIs before comparison.

<johnarwe_> concrete proposal draft: smlif 5.4.2, betw existing parag 2 and 3: Note: Since the URI prefixes specified as ruleAlias and documentAlias elements are aliases, they are subject to all of the processing for aliases as described in [5.3.3]. For example, if they are relative references then they would be transformed to absolute URIs before comparison.

RESOLUTION: No objections to this proposal.

John: Will paste text into the issue and change Keyword to "Editorial".
... No review is required.

Issue 6205: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6205

<trackbot> Created ACTION-205 - Set up Len for access to CVS. [on Michael Sperberg-McQueen - due 2008-11-13].

Test Case Discussion Continued

Features list (distributed by Kumar)

Kumar: Will need to send out list of mapping of features to COSMOS test.

Kirk and MSM are satisfied to have the team proceed without our exhaustive review of the test case. Kirk and MSM will bring up comments as they find appropriate in the future.

Other items

<johnarwe_> This document is also available in these non-normative formats: XML.

Len: SML 1.1 reference to non-normative format. Only format is XML, but you don't get an XML document.

Kumar: This is not an SML bugzilla issue.

<johnarwe_> is MSM still listening?

Kumar: Will send email to Web Admin to help us with this.

Len: List of editorial minor editorial corrections.

John: Easier in this case to open one bug to handle editorial issues.

Len will open bug for these corrections.

<johnarwe_> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-sml/2008Nov/0006.html

Len: Issue re: sml:locid.

MSM: We should not/cannot standardize on these issues. A human may be required to set up a model in another environment.
... Yes, it is a problem for interoperability. But we are not sure of the extent to which it is resolvable.
... Len will not push the issue.

John: Transition meeting schedule for one week from today in the morning.

Adjournment: 3:47 pm ET.
