<AxelPolleres> ... last item is about lists and sequences. whether to deprecate them or not.

<AxelPolleres> ... concern about usage out there.

<AxelPolleres> ... RDF plans to push this to (a future?) SPARQL WG.

<AxelPolleres> http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/wiki/Comments

<LeeF> I'll take care of the rest of that one

<LeeF> from Andy

<LeeF> yes, I"m now the owner

reuse of prefixes (DB-9)

<AxelPolleres> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg-comments/2011Sep/0004.html

Axel: What about Turtle?

AndyS: Turtle does not allow this.
... it is now late in our process

Axel: Will draft response to DB

<AxelPolleres> ACTION: Axel to draft an answer to DB-9, stating that it is too late in the process for this change. [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2011/10/18-sparql-minutes.html#action02]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-543 - Draft an answer to DB-9, stating that it is too late in the process for this change. [on Axel Polleres - due 2011-10-25].

<AxelPolleres> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg-comments/2011Sep/0000.html

<AxelPolleres> steve: think I drafted a response.

subtopic: Update

<AxelPolleres> http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/wiki/PostLastCall#Update

DB-12

<AxelPolleres> DB-12 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg-comments/2011Sep/0008.html

<AxelPolleres> [[ If a graph is created implicitly by an update operation, then the behavior of the Graph Store MUST be functionally equivalent to its behavior if the graph had been created explicitly by a CREATE operation. ]]

Axel: David thinks we should add text about "CREATE GRAPH"
... problem is that doc says a graph store may remove empty graphs
... but not that it always does or does not
... so some may be dropped, and some may

AndyS: I think doc covers this via the formal semantics.

Axel: What should we proscribe?
... make a distinction between graph and non-graph aware graph stores?

<AxelPolleres> http://www.w3.org/TR/sparql11-update/#def_clearOperation

<chimezie> does that effect operations involving data?

Axel: What should I as editor do?

<chimezie> Zakim unmute me

<AxelPolleres> Axel: will try to draft another response along the lines that yes in this case, that's a bug, but, since the spec doesn't prescribe when graphs are removed and when not, the suggested text wouldn't change anything.

bglimm: outstanding comment (only one reply)

<AxelPolleres> please reply/discuss by next time the open comment Birte is dealing with on D-entailment...

<bglimm> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg/2011OctDec/0033.html

trackbot, end meeting
