15:07:12 <Guus> RESOLVED: to accept the minutes of the 06 March telecon:     http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/meeting/2013-03-06
15:07:37 <gavinc> topic: Action Items

15:08:19 <gavinc> Guus: Keeping action open.
15:08:30 <gavinc> ... we'll come back to semantics.
15:08:48 <pfps> q+
15:08:57 <gavinc> Topic: Semantics
15:09:17 <gavinc> pfps: I don't see how we can move forward with the objection from AZ.
15:09:35 <AZ> q+
15:09:42 <gavinc> PatH: Apart from the objection, there are sections that haven't been written. HTML linking to fix, now using Respec, should go faster.
15:09:52 <pfps> I don't see that any of the issues that Pat is reporting should stop FPWD publication.
15:10:12 <gavinc> Guus: Shall we start with AZ's last email?
15:10:26 <gavinc> AZ: I said that the current description of blank node scope should be removed from the document.
15:10:43 <gavinc> ... should go back to the RDF 2004 for blank node semantics.
15:10:58 <gavinc> ... It introduces a number of new concepts that we haven't talked about.
15:11:19 <gavinc> ... Blank node scope has been discussed, but hasn't been agreed upon.
15:11:30 <gavinc> ... Adds other concepts that haven't been discussed.
15:12:09 <gavinc> ... ??? ...
15:12:26 <gavinc> ... Should introduce issues for all new concepts introduced in Semantics.
15:12:53 <gavinc> ... The main reason is that if it's only kept in the semantics document, then some people won't see them.
15:13:23 <gavinc> ... confident in editors of concepts and semantics ...
15:14:05 <gavinc> ... the process is not right, editors shouldn't introduce concepts
15:14:59 <gavinc> PatH: Two issues. Should ??? be in the spec at all. 2nd issue, which document should it be in. (??? blank node scope)
15:15:33 <AZ> Ok, right, Semantics and Concepts should cross reference, I agree
15:15:53 <gavinc> ... Which material goes in which document is a largely editorial choice. Noted that this material should go in RDF Concepts as a NOTE in the semantics document.
15:17:16 <gavinc> pfps: The problem is that there are outstanding issues that haven't been addressed.
15:17:27 <gavinc> ... a number of them are technical.
15:17:44 <Zakim> +??P21
15:17:52 <pchampin> zakim, ??P21 is me
15:17:52 <Zakim> +pchampin; got it
15:18:19 <gavinc> ... Chicken and egg problem. How are we going to get them addressed appropriately? This is a plee to get the semantics decided before we worry about semi-colons.
15:18:38 <gavinc> ... we're the handmaiden of the people who want to do the design.
15:19:03 <gavinc> +q to say oh yes there was.
15:19:24 <gavinc> pfps: I don't think there is a better way then to publish this in a FPWD.
15:19:35 <gavinc> PatH: It's a draft after all!
15:19:46 <gavinc> Guus: I was going to propose that.
15:19:49 <gavinc> -q
15:20:01 <gavinc> ... it's important that we get a FPWD out.
15:20:25 <gavinc> pfps: I think that we SHOULD a way forward on RDF graphs sharing blank nodes.
15:20:48 <gavinc> ... I don't know if it's THE way we'll end up using, and it doesn't have to match exactly what's in RDF concepts.
15:21:23 <gavinc> PatH: There shouldn't be a difference of opinion that's unacknowledged between RDF concepts, and RDF semantics.
15:21:56 <gavinc> Guus: I'd like to decide today on publishing a FPWD.
15:22:02 <gavinc> ... what needs to be done to make that possible?
15:22:25 <gavinc> PatH: I think putting a more prominent issue note would be adequate?
15:23:15 <gavinc> AZ: Best we can do, to go forward.
15:24:15 <cgreer> That's exactly the word JSON-LD-SYNTAX uses re blank nodes -- controversial :)
15:24:19 <cygri> ISSUE-43?

15:24:19 <trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/track/issues/43
15:24:38 <pfps> Which issue is blank node scope, or should there be a new one?

15:26:21 <pfps> unfortunately, I am unlikely to be able to be at the meeting next week
15:26:32 <tbaker> +1
15:26:50 <gavinc> Guus: If we can resolve in the next two or three weeks we should be on track.
15:27:08 <gavinc> ... do we have a series?
15:27:14 <pfps> given that I am happy with the current situation, my participation is probably not necessary
15:27:19 <gavinc> PatH: Did I misread something?
15:27:34 <gavinc> Guus: I don't like series editors.
15:27:52 <gavinc> PatH: Will remove. I thought I was supposed to.
15:28:13 <AZ> As pfps said, we should have a decision on ISSUE 97
15:28:17 <AZ> (related to semantics)

15:28:50 <pfps> q-
15:29:04 <Guus> ack AZ
15:29:18 <gavinc> AZ: Would like us to have a decision on ISSUE-97.
15:29:22 <gavinc> ISSUE-97?
15:29:22 <trackbot> ISSUE-97 -- Should the semantics of RDF graphs be dependent on a vocabulary? -- closed
15:29:22 <trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/track/issues/97
15:30:21 <gavinc> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-wg/2013Mar/0041.html
15:30:45 <AZ> AZ: we should reopen ISSUE 97, make a decision and close it again
15:30:59 <gavinc> gavinc: Can't find proposal.
15:31:03 <gavinc> pfps: Don't have one.
15:31:12 <gavinc> ... it's in the email.
15:31:27 <gavinc> Guus: Should have put this on the agenda.
15:31:53 <gavinc> ... no objections on mailing list?
15:32:24 <gavinc> pfps: well... I mean it's a change, there was chatter. RDF systems don't do what semantics says.
15:32:34 <gavinc> ... SPARQL systems do something else.
15:32:52 <gavinc> ... It's NOT a counter example, as SPARQL has an explicit "scope graph"
15:33:10 <gavinc> ... the "scope graph" plugs a hole in the 2004 semantics.
15:33:25 <AZ> q+
15:33:27 <gavinc> ... the change to the semantics is in agreement with the way SPARQL works.
15:33:29 <AZ> I did
15:33:37 <AZ> (provide the response)
15:35:00 <gavinc> AZ: Consequences of the change are not non-existent.
15:35:57 <gavinc> pfps: I'm unaware of any system that doesn't do the right thing here.
15:36:36 <pfps> PROPOSAL: reoopen and close ISSUE-97 to make RDF interpretations interpret all IRIs
15:37:11 <gavinc> PROPOSAL: reoopen and close ISSUE-97 to make RDF interpretations interpret all IRIs as per http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-wg/2013Mar/0041.html

15:37:15 <Guus> +1
15:37:16 <AZ> I emmitted claims that it has consequences, but I admit now that the advantages overcome the minor changes

15:38:53 <trackbot> ISSUE-107 -- Revised definition of blank nodes -- open
15:38:53 <trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/track/issues/107
15:39:05 <gavinc> pfps: Attempt to close ISSUE-107 next week?
15:39:27 <AZ> ow, I'm afraid one week will not be enough
15:39:38 <Guus> q?
15:39:45 <Guus> ack AZ
15:39:46 <gavinc> Guus: That concludes semantics.
15:39:48 <pfps> I'll put out a message - the idea will be to try to get discussion started - if one week is insufficient then so be ti
15:40:03 <cgreer> scribe: cgreer
15:40:22 <gavinc> topic: TriG/N-Triples/N-Quads 
15:40:36 <cgreer> gavinc: There are three syntaxes that are close to FPWD
15:40:53 <cgreer> ... I missed wrong production in wrong doc, this will be changed.
15:40:58 <cgreer> ... Otherwise they're ready
15:41:09 <AndyS> FPWD -- go for it!
15:41:31 <cgreer> gavinc: There's an error in TriG, need to add turtle as reference
15:41:49 <cgreer> ... Error in n-quads where I refer to triple rather than statement... known issues not yet fixed
15:42:15 <cgreer> Guus: We need reviews
15:42:45 <gkellogg> I'll bite
15:42:47 <cgreer> gavinc: I'd hope that reviewers can take all three
15:43:01 <cgreer> andys: I'm happy with them as is
15:43:16 <cgreer> Guus: Without review?
15:43:30 <cgreer> andys: I think they're ready for FPWD level
15:43:34 <PatH> I just posted an updated semantics document version. Hopefully this will pass muster.
15:43:38 <cgreer> Guus: I interpret that statement as a review
15:43:41 <cgreer> WOOT
15:43:59 <cgreer> gavinc: The only one that needs more attention is n-quads
15:44:20 <cgreer> ... n-quads is newer, nobody has seen it yet
15:44:38 <cgreer> andys: my statement was about n-triples
15:44:48 <cgreer> ... but we shouldn't set the barrier too high
15:45:11 <cgreer> gavinc: n-triples has already been published as well, and reviewed
15:45:17 <cgreer> ... this step just extracts it
15:45:26 <cgreer> Guus: agreed to publish all three?
15:45:35 <cgreer> gkellogg: I can postpone review
15:46:05 <cgreer> gavinc: do we intend to take n-triples and n-quads to recommendation?
15:46:19 <cgreer> ... extension says they're both notes
15:46:26 <cgreer> Guus: did we have some other agreement?
15:46:38 <cgreer> ... we can assume they're notes for now
15:47:03 <cgreer> PROPOSED: take TriG, n-triples and n-quads to FPWD

15:48:53 <cgreer> RESOLVED: take TriG, n-triples and n-quads to FPWD according to  http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-wg/2013Mar/0091.html
15:49:00 <Zakim> AZ, listening for 11 seconds I heard sound from the following: Guus_Schreiber (47%), AndyS (64%)
15:49:07 <PatH> the semantics to fpwd.

15:52:35 <gavinc> gkellogg: The decision from ISSUE-105 is not in Concepts yet.
15:52:59 <gavinc> Guus: Check with editor to see if there an issue or just editorial
15:53:33 <gavinc> markus: we addressed almost all issues sandro raised.
15:53:46 <gavinc> ... should we reserve all @words as keywords.
15:53:59 <Zakim> -cgreer
15:54:21 <gavinc> ... Sandro recommended doing that, we decided not to enforce that in the algorithm
15:54:38 <cgreer> lost audio
15:54:47 <gavinc> ... we decided to simply ignore @terms that aren't defined, just like other undefined terms
15:55:27 <gavinc> ... only two sections that contain normative statements
15:55:39 <AndyS> I found it a bit more complicated - the normative section B refers to the non-norm sections.
15:56:49 <gavinc> ... the stuff about numbers are in the algorithm spec, not the syntax spec.
15:57:03 <gavinc> ... could add more examples with numbers, but we already have a lot of examples
15:57:23 <Guus> q?
15:57:41 <gavinc> ... there are a few minor thins in algorithms that need to be ironed out.
