PROPOSAL: Accept the minutes of last meeting http://www.w3.org/2012/01/17-RDB2RDF-minutes.html

<ivan> +1

RESOLUTION: Accept the minutes of last meeting http://www.w3.org/2012/01/17-RDB2RDF-minutes.html

Towards CR

Michael: Two REC-Track documents
... R2RML and DM
... http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/r2rml/ - R2RML
... http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/directMapping/LC/Overview.html - DM

Ashok: Wondering what happened to the datatype mapping section

<cygri> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdb2rdf-wg/2012Jan/0026.html

Ashok: Did you Richard and Eric discuss and sort out?

Richard: Yes

Eric: Looking at it ATM

(Eric and Richard discuss the datatype mapping section)

Richard: relevant sections are http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/r2rml/#datatype-intro and http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/r2rml/#datatype-overrides
... as well as http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/r2rml/#non-string-columns
... and http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/r2rml/#natural-mapping

(Eric and Richard still discuss the datatype mapping sections re normative and informative)

Richard: Eric, how about if we say that DM only applies to SQL 2008 datatypes
... core part

Michael: Our VoIP system again, damn
... give us a moment please
... I don't know what was the last thing you heared

<Souri> If this point is not normative anyway (b/c it addresses data type outside SQL core 2008?), what's the harm in just marking that point as informative?

Richard: In essence it is about the fallback handling of unknown, vendor-specific extensions (just use the string representation)

<juansequeda> +1 to RIchard's analogy to HTML

<dmcneil> +q

Michael: Let's see what other reasons there might be to not go CR today

David: If my impl casts to str and I always return "" is this compliant?

Richard: Yes

Michael: Isn't the impl experience part of the next phase?

Ivan: Border-line - if this is known in advance, then we should avoid it

(Eric and Richard continue the discussion around datatypes - seems to have shifted to re implementation)

Ivan: I've heard the arguments already a thousand times - can we deliver, now?
... I've sent in comments on DM, most of which has been taken care of by Juan
... though on the set theoretical stuff

Eric: I took care of it, yes

PROPOSAL: The WG believes that all issues that have been brought up during the LC phase concerning R2RML and DM - as recorded in http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/wiki/Last_Call - have been addressed.

<ivan> +1

Dave: Not all have been addressed

Ivan: The proposal is about comments outside from the WG

Richard: David, I addressed most of your issues as well (but didn't find time to react to them via mail)
... the unresolved ones are naming of classes and regarding parent-child referencing object maps

<cygri> http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/r2rml/diffs/1.187-1.188.html

Ivan: As far as I'm concerned we have addressed all the technical issues
... David's comment is re implementations have been done properly

PROPOSAL: The WG decides to transition the two REC-Track documents R2RML and DM to CR as of the W3C Process Document.
... The WG decides to ask the W3C Director to announce the Call for Implementations to the Advisory Committee.

<dmcneil> +q

<Souri> What is the deadline?

<Souri> +1 to ericP's suggestion

David: can the naming stuff be done after CR?

Michael: No, we need to do it now

PROPOSAL: The WG believes that all issues that have been brought up during the LC phase concerning R2RML and DM - as recorded in http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/wiki/Last_Call - have been addressed.
