I think I should provide a rationale 16:19:00 +1 to Jeremy. I suggest masking it optional taks away most of the pain. 16:19:29 masking/making 16:19:38 JeremyCarroll: If you need to compare things, C14N is a requirement. If you want to do logical operations over it then you need to do the C14N. We need to specify how to do compare, but not every application needs to do compare 16:20:16 JeremyCarroll: Making it optional seems like the key change. 16:20:38 JeremyCarroll: I prefer doing in L2V mapping, but was easier as an implementor do it in the XML parser 16:20:57 q+ 16:21:13 JeremyCarroll: At some point will need to compare an XMLLiteral from RDF/XML and Turtle, wherew will we do the work? I think right now we're saying to do it durring the compare 16:21:23 q+ 16:21:32 q+ 16:21:41 editorially, we could motivate this by use cases: "For use cases which motivate equivalence between XML literals, generators of XML literals rfc2119:SHOULD canonicalize XML literals by XML Canonicalization" 16:21:48 ack AndyS 16:22:13 AndyS: You said that the XML comunity has done some work on equality? 16:22:42 JeremyCarroll: XML C14N talks about equality, XML infoset doesn't. 16:22:54 JeremyCarroll: Namespaces are an example of this. 16:23:18 JeremyCarroll: XML C14N addresses what to do with XML Namespaces 16:23:28 ack pfps 16:23:29 JeremyCarroll: There are not perfect answers here. 16:24:08 pfps: If reading from an XML document, I understand why you need to get this right, but if your not using XML documents. In Turtle you can treat them as string 16:24:26 Guus: This could be in RDF/XML no RDF Concepts? 16:25:35 if this is optional as a datatype, then we can have two kinds of xml literals with different mappings and values. 16:25:39 JeremyCarroll: I think pfps, I think XMLLiteral should compare as a String, and RDF/XML should do the XML C14N, but in Turtle don't do anything. Only works if hand codded perfectly. 16:26:14 gavinc: pfps's approach sounds OK 16:26:35 ... i've used XML literals a fair amount. I don't think XML literal meets any of its original use cases. 16:26:51 ... you can't use it for fragments 'cause c14n talks about documents 16:26:58 ... fragments get strange 16:27:13 hmmm - xc14n is all about fragments not documents ... 16:27:23 ... adding formatted XML into RDF seems like a good use case, but we can't use c14n 16:27:35 in this pfps proposal, what is the L2V map? what are the literal values? c14n or text? 16:27:47 ... we and others put escaped XML into strings 16:28:21 Guus: I don't want to spend a huge ammount of time on this issue. 16:28:24 q? 16:28:30 q+ to correct Gavin's backwards 16:28:34 s/escaped XML/escaped HTML 16:29:09 q+ 16:29:10 Zakim, unmute me 16:29:10 JeremyCarroll should no longer be muted 16:29:12 zakim, mute me 16:29:12 PatH should now be muted 16:32:21 ack ericP 16:32:25 ACTION gavinc raise issue around formated text literals 16:32:25 Sorry, couldn't find user - gavinc 16:32:35 ACTION Gavin raise issue around formated text literals 16:32:35 Created ACTION-124 - Raise issue around formated text literals [on Gavin Carothers - due 2011-12-07]. 16:33:01 ack gavin 16:33:17 ack JeremyCarroll 16:33:18 JeremyCarroll, you wanted to correct Gavin's backwards 16:33:23 ericP: ... said stuff about XML C14N ... 16:34:01 Guus: what is the impact? 16:34:33 ericP: for some use cases, generators should use XML C14N 16:34:38 q+ 16:34:43 editorial... 16:34:58 ericP: Pushing back on only being in RDF/XML 16:35:23 JeremyCarroll: That's a large editoral change. 16:35:57 JeremyCarroll: Muddling up use cases with normative text is not a direction I want the specs to do 16:36:01 s/do/go 16:36:27 Topic: Turtle and SPARQL escapes 16:36:55 Guus: is there consensus? 16:37:30 AndyS: I thought Richards desire and ericP's desires could be resolved with character escapes 16:37:52 AndyS: SPARQL can go on with a at risk feature. 16:38:20 q+ 16:38:41 AndyS: Haven't seen a responce from ericP 16:38:50 ericP: I see all of it as an improvement 16:38:51 +1 from me 16:39:57 +Arnaud.a 16:40:24 -Arnaud_LeHors 16:40:48 If this has consensus, SPARQL-WG can proceed as described in http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg/2011OctDec/0229.html 16:44:02 The 'committee' heuristic: always make as few binding decisions as possible. 16:45:07 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-wg/2011Nov/0249.html (first comment) 16:45:51 "Is escaping the URI-legal, non-alphanumerics as character escapes acceptable to you?" 16:46:33 shall we create an action to make the text? 16:46:51 : [a-zA-Z0-9-] | \\[URI-legal, non-alphanumerics] 16:46:54 ? :D 16:47:23 Topic: Named Graphs 16:47:44 q+ 16:47:53 q- 16:47:56 Guus: There have been some messages on the uses of the 4th column 16:47:59 ack gavinc 16:48:02 q+ 16:48:34 Guus: IRI in the 4th column seems to be the consensus 16:48:53 AZ: It is still useful to have Literals in the 4th column 16:49:14 Guus: has to be extreamly compelling to change the design 16:49:44 AZ: For temporal RDF, people are annotating with VALUE, not a IRI 16:50:00 q+ 16:50:30 AZ: other proposals that annotate with trust values, which again, are values. 16:50:44 zakim, unmute me 16:50:44 PatH should no longer be muted 16:50:50 ack PatH 16:51:12 PatH: Allow literals in 4th positions, one can imagine uses 16:51:27 PatH: I don't think we have preserve existing desgin, we don't have one 16:51:43 strong +1 PatH 16:51:49 PatH: Should not prohibit values in fields in RDF 16:52:40 JeremyCarroll: Original design had a 5th column 16:53:22 JeremyCarroll: When you think about it, you want to talk about small graphs (molecules).

The design is about making choices. You get inter op by having a design and limitations. 17:04:53 q+ 17:05:32 JeremyCarroll: The goal of named graphs was to add the least amount of change to address new use cases. 17:05:52 JeremyCarroll: I don't see allowing literals in the 4th field to be anything other then us failing to do our jobs 17:05:53 Does any TriG parser enforce one-use of an IRI to id a graph? 17:06:51 zakim, unmute me 17:06:51 PatH should no longer be muted 17:07:07 q? 17:07:19 q+ to ask to finalize escape item 17:07:35 If it's doomed to be an IRI, then we should be more precise about what that IRI refers to 17:07:35 Jeremy: the purpose of a standards body is to make decisions in the design 17:07:47 pchampin: no one wants to restrict what the 4th column can be 17:08:02 Jeremy: not to provide general machinery that can be used in a non-interoperable fashion 17:08:29 Jeremy: previous group went for Subject, Predicate, Object as a triple, not three general items 17:08:45 Jeremy: we should specify what the 4th column is specifiying 17:08:45 pchampin: going back to older proposal graph is not labeled not by an IRI but by a resource 17:08:55 ack pa 17:09:01 ack pchampin 17:09:02 Jeremy: making it identify the graph is clear and works with the previous spec 17:09:41 PatH: I'm sympathetic with JeremyCarroll's position. I like that design. I've been working there for some months, but that it's untenable. 17:09:50 ... quad stores violate that design. 17:10:09 ... we need to rethink what that 4th position is 17:10:17 ... we shouldn't tie ourselves up 17:10:48 +1 to pat 17:10:52 Guus: If the IRI is not forced to denote, then we should make very clear why it's an IRI 17:11:43 Topic: Back to Escapes 17:11:56 (this discussion invalidates my action 119) 17:12:04 The set of character escapes for the local part of prefix names is ~.-!$&'()*+,;=:/?#@%_ (token: PN_LOCAL), the set of URI-legal, non-alphanumerics (path, query and fragment). 17:12:10 Any generated IRI is still subject to rule governing the legality of IRIs. e.g. og:audio\:title (This does not cover one way or the other (1) adding %xx with unescaped % in PN_LOCAL (2) \u escapes in Turtle) 17:12:23 I will escape now:-) 17:12:29 -PatH 17:13:19 #! ;) 17:13:58 PROPOSAL: The set of character escapes for the local part of prefix names is ~.-!$&'()*+,;=:/?#@%_ (token: PN_LOCAL), the set of URI-legal, non-alphanumerics (path, query and fragment). 17:13:59 +1 17:14:01 +1 17:14:38 Zakim, unmute me 17:14:38 MacTed should no longer be muted 17:15:45 ISSUE-67 17:15:47 The set of character escapes for the local part of prefix names is ~.-!$&'()*+,;=:/?#@%_ (token: PN_LOCAL); i.e., the set of URI-legal, non-alphanumerics (path, query and fragment). 17:15:48 ISSUE-67? 17:15:48 ISSUE-67 -- \xxxx escaping in prefixed names -- open 17:15:48 http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/track/issues/67 17:16:02 ISSUE-74? 17:16:02 ISSUE-74 -- Prefixed names and slashes -- open 17:16:02 http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/track/issues/74 17:16:45 +1 to proposal, with my insert :-) 17:16:48 Zakim, mute me 17:16:48 MacTed should now be muted 17:17:31 PROPOSAL: resolve ISSUE-74 with -- The set of character escapes for the local part of prefix names is ~.-!$&'()*+,;=:/?#@%_ (token: PN_LOCAL); i.e., the set of URI-legal, non-alphanumerics (path, query and fragment). 17:17:35 +1 17:17:43 +1 17:17:43 +1 17:17:59 RESOLVED 17:18:26 trackbot, end meeting 17:18:26 Zakim, list attendees 17:18:26 As of this point the attendees have been Peter_Patel-Schneider, AZ, Scott_Bauer, AndyS, +31.20.598.aaaa, gavinc, MacTed, Guus, AlexHall, ericP, +1.850.377.aabb, Arnaud_LeHors, 17:18:27 RRSAgent, please draft minutes 17:18:27 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2011/11/30-rdf-wg-minutes.html trackbot 17:18:28 RRSAgent, bye 17:18:28 I see no action items 17:18:29 ... charlesgreer, +1.415.586.aacc, JeremyCarroll, PatH, NickH, pchampin, Arnaud 17:18:31 -Peter_Patel-Schneider
