14:22:10 <sandro> joe: Almost every site I found, like Josh's site on open gov data, ...   they all require logins.
14:23:03 <ChrisBeer> That is actually I think a better open (@ken) IMO - we can't really self reference or write "original research" things on Wikipedia, however, we can write on mediawiki and use our work as references and links within the appropriate articles.
14:23:10 <Karen> Sandro: if our community was active and monitoring
14:24:05 <sandro> kevin: Maybe double-posting between wikipedia AND our wiki
14:24:15 <ChrisBeer> All sites need logins - anon. edits on wikipedia tend to be scrutinised and aren't liked that much within the community unless its an obvious correction done by someone on the fly
14:24:22 <sandro> joe: Yes, if our stuff is valuable, we should put it there.
14:24:36 <Daniel_Bennett> yes, we should cite w3c when appropriate. especially to the standards

15:07:24 <george> thank you all - i look forward to exploring more with all
15:07:26 <sandro> topic: Provenance Incubator group
15:07:36 <ChrisBeer> I would put forward libraries as a good case study in that sense - has practical and obvious benefits, is already in use, is currently being made semantic.
15:07:39 <Daniel_Bennett> Provenance has interesting overlaps with us
15:08:01 <Zakim> -Brand
15:08:22 <johnlsheridan> zakim, mute me
15:08:22 <Zakim> johnlsheridan should now be muted
15:11:13 <Daniel_Bennett> and for the public, the provenance of govt data is quite important, especially as the data is echoed through gov sites and non-gov sites
15:12:21 <Zakim> -Jim
15:12:25 <Daniel_Bennett> and as legacy data is copied from paper or old proprietary formats to electronic open standard formats.
15:12:32 <ChrisBeer> and yet how many (for instance) PDF files produced by .gov.* are digitially signed for instance - my experience is that solving prov. is as much about a shift in public sector culture as it is about tech
15:12:51 <Cory> Don't need to sell me, need to know how we are going to support this in semweb!
15:12:59 <ChrisBeer> (oh - rhetorical - not many .gov files are signed)
15:13:26 <ChrisBeer> <content> <has digisig> <value> :)
15:13:53 <Cory> <content> is graph, resource or triple?
15:14:23 <sandro> http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/prov/wiki/Provenance_Dimensions
15:14:54 <Daniel_Bennett> digital signatures is a closed system that can be helpful or not. I would say having a web of echoes and references around the web can be really valuable whether or not hashes or sigs are included.
15:15:03 <ChrisBeer> @Cory - has to be resource, or instance of resource (a "copy" in a publications sense) if its a file. signing a dataset presents its own prov. probs.
15:16:05 <Daniel_Bennett> another reason to make government data easier to copy and reference.
15:16:16 <ChrisBeer> @Daniel - Prov is linked to trust - public only cares if the information is "official" or not - echoes and refs not simple enough
15:16:36 <ChrisBeer> *simply
15:16:50 <sandro> http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/prov/wiki/Use_Cases
15:16:51 <Cory> But a resource is not owned by any particular graph,
15:17:19 <sandro> wow, that's a lot of use cases....
15:18:00 <Daniel_Bennett> hmmm. i think that most people prefer easy to find data than "signed" documents. "trust" is usually oft repeated, but usually a secondary process when a problem arises.
15:18:26 <Daniel_Bennett> also most data is granular and is hard to sign each datum.

15:18:56 <sandro> joe: digital signatures?
15:19:12 <sandro> yolanda: it's not a use case for us, but it's important
15:19:36 <annew> digital signatures for public laws as well as bills from the 110th congress
15:19:40 <Daniel_Bennett> no one can keep john from speaking up. UNMUTE JOHN!
15:19:42 <ChrisBeer> @Cory + @Daniel - think like a user, all other prov issues aside - public either wants first hand data/files/info from a .gov.* domain (which by inference is always "official") or if viewing second hand and wanting verfication of .gov.* prov, will check on .gov.* anyway

15:21:52 <ChrisBeer> +1 daniel - Prov + .gov.* + SM is a major issue we could use input on
15:23:31 <ChrisBeer> (@edsu - thanks - I'll be waving that around a work tomorrow :) )
15:23:35 <sandro> johnlsheridan: the kind of data publishing we're doing requires provenance tracking, especially through transforms.    your uses capture this well.   This is important work.
15:24:25 <sandro> johnlsheridan: We've experimented with this for RDF haven't settled on a solution/approach yet.   We're going to need to do much more, and quickly.
15:24:37 <sandro> yolanda: What vocabs?
15:24:49 <sandro> johnlsheridan: "Provance Vocabular" and "Open Provenance Model":
15:25:00 <sandro> q?
15:25:08 <edsu> http://purl.org/net/provenance/ ?
15:25:33 <johnlsheridan> yup
15:25:36 <sandro> yolanda: They should be somewhere on our wiki....
15:25:36 <Daniel_Bennett> thinks we should look at Dublin Core as important to this
15:25:58 <sandro> zakim, who is here?
15:25:58 <Zakim> On the phone I see Thomas, Sandro, johnlsheridan, Cory, Ken, edsu, Daniel_Bennett, Karen_Myers, George, joec, Brian (muted), ??P27, ??P31
15:26:00 <johnlsheridan> sure, dc terms, but how far do we stretch them
15:26:01 <Zakim> On IRC I see annew, joec, Karen, Daniel_Bennett, george, edsu, johnlsheridan, Cory, RRSAgent, Zakim, tb, ChrisBeer, hughb, trackbot, sandro
15:26:06 <Zakim> -Thomas
15:26:19 <edsu> johnlsheridan: you work with jeni at the uk archives right? http://www.jenitennison.com/blog/node/133
15:26:24 <sandro> ack annew 
15:26:26 <Cory> DC seems unusable, as the people are not resources
15:26:37 <johnlsheridan> Yes, Jeni is doing some work for me
15:26:57 <sandro> annew: A whole body of work of digitigal archivists from UCLA, eScience, lets have a longer conversation
15:27:03 <Daniel_Bennett> first is to promote just using Dublin Core, author, pub, license, and using permanent URLs is a good start. 
15:27:17 <sandro> yolanda: talking to ....
15:27:20 <johnlsheridan> +1 Daniel
15:27:32 <joec> DDMS is a US government mil spec extending Dublin Core for governments
15:27:32 <johnlsheridan> Thanks Yolanda!
15:27:36 <ChrisBeer> @John thinking about @Daniel's comment on DC - would actually recommend you explore RDA - already mapped to DC and it will be Pubs/Archive specific
15:27:42 <annew> Annewas to escience activity at UCLA and the digital archive research
15:27:55 <annew> *Anne's reference was 
15:28:01 <edsu> Daniel_Bennett: agreed
15:29:06 <annew> UCLA earlier research http://www.gseis.ucla.edu/us-interpares/
15:29:11 <johnlsheridan> there is a really tight synergy with gov linked data
15:29:29 <sandro> Daniel_Bennett: let's just attend each other's meetings
15:29:39 <annew> InterPARES (International Project on Permanent Authentic Records in Electronic Systems)
15:30:00 <Daniel_Bennett> not just- at least
15:30:05 <sandro> yolanda: 4 overlap between Prov and HCLS; but no person overlap with eGov yet
15:31:12 <ChrisBeer> @John http://dublincore.org/groups/libraries/rda/
15:32:27 <sandro> yolanda: first F2F probably at WWW, in North Carolina in ?April?
15:32:38 <edsu> apr 26-30 ; http://www2010.org/www/
15:32:46 <Zakim> -Brian
15:32:46 <annew> thanks yolanda!
15:32:47 <sandro> ADJOURN
15:32:52 <Zakim> -Ken
15:32:53 <Zakim> -joec
15:32:53 <Zakim> -Karen_Myers
15:32:54 <Zakim> -George
15:32:54 <Zakim> -johnlsheridan
15:32:57 <Zakim> -??P31
15:32:59 <Zakim> -edsu
15:33:01 <Zakim> -Sandro
15:33:04 <Zakim> -??P27
15:33:14 <Daniel_Bennett> hmm. ok bye.
15:33:18 <edsu> :-)
15:33:20 <ChrisBeer> @John RDA takes transforms into account too I believe, in the sense that it diffs between abstract "source" and copies in any format
15:33:22 <Zakim> -Daniel_Bennett
15:33:36 <annew> somebody turn off the lights! bye
15:33:47 <johnlsheridan> thanks @chris
15:33:52 <Daniel_Bennett> but still on IRC. where the real convos happen ;-)
15:33:53 <edsu> ChrisBeer: my personal opinion is that it's early days for rda
15:33:55 <sandro> there is a motion sensor.  they got off by themselves.  :-)
15:34:11 <edsu> ChrisBeer: and it's also very library/print oriented
15:34:42 <ChrisBeer> @Sandro - "Resource Description and Access" (RDA) is a new content standard for resource description being developed on the foundations of library cataloguing practice established in the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR).
15:34:44 <Daniel_Bennett> see link that Chris put up: http://dublincore.org/groups/libraries/rda/
15:34:59 <edsu> sandro: it's a big tome of new international cataloging rules, that is getting expressed somewhat as rdf vocabulary by folks in the dublin core community
15:35:07 <ChrisBeer> @Sandro - basically it's new SemWeb standard focused on publications
15:35:35 <ChrisBeer> Geared towards digital content as well
15:35:49 <edsu> ChrisBeer: somewhat yes, but that's not its focus
15:36:05 <edsu> at least in my limited understanding :-)
15:38:09 <ChrisBeer> It's a big part of why they moved from MARC21 in my (also limitied) understanding. However it is definately geared towards archiving and cataloguing of any publication, so it complements other core semweb techs nicely
15:38:23 <Zakim> disconnecting the lone participant, Cory, in T&S_EGOV()9:00AM
15:38:27 <Zakim> T&S_EGOV()9:00AM has ended
15:38:29 <Zakim> Attendees were +49.178.404.aaaa, Sandro, Thomas, +1.703.880.aabb, Cory, +1.703.994.aacc, johnlsheridan, edsu, Ken, Brian, Kevin, Daniel_Bennett, Karen_Myers, +1.202.690.aadd,
15:38:32 <Zakim> ... +1.202.564.aaee, joec, George, [IPcaller], +1.410.975.aaff, Brand, Jim
15:39:19 <ChrisBeer> and it lets you include webpages which makes online archival of electronic resources easy for any gov org to manage - let the librarians take care of it for you ;)
15:39:20 <Daniel_Bennett> MARC ... MODS ... Dublin Core, we should include explanation on our site.
15:39:33 <ChrisBeer> Agreed
15:40:18 <edsu> i guess it wouldn't be the first time people advocated for metadata in gov web pages :) http://dublincore.org/dcgapwiki/
15:41:28 <ChrisBeer> Technically you have to by law here. I'm currently setting up my Depts/Ministries centralised pubs area on our site - using both our official metadata standard + RDA which gets released in 6 months or so. Bye!
15:42:26 <ChrisBeer> 2.30 am here - off to bed with me I think
15:44:01 <joec> joec has left #egov
