tadej; followed this but can't dedicate time

<fsasaki> dave: talked about this with olaf, need to follow up

<fsasaki> .. ongoing

<fsasaki> action-196?

<trackbot> ACTION-196 -- Felix Sasaki to make inheritance - overriding etc. clearer in the spec -- due 2012-08-20 -- CLOSED

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/track/actions/196

<fsasaki> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-multilingualweb-lt/2012Aug/0311.html

<fsasaki> http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/drafts/its20/its20.html#datacategories-defaults-etc

felix: inheritence and overriding colum are mutually redundant and make the function of inhertance clearer
... does everyone agree?

Yves; in broad agreement

<fsasaki> dave: old text didn't really say what overriding did

<fsasaki> .. there is several aspects like "overriding the data values of the ITS category"

<fsasaki> .. that might make it clearer

<fsasaki> .. so there wasn't a definition what is overriden

<fsasaki> .. the data values that apply to the nodes get overriden

PRAGUE + TPAC

<scribe> scribe: daveL

felix: hope eveyone can come to both, though prague is most important
... but TPAC also give opportunity to meet other W3C folk

Des; will be showing some implementations

felix; people are implementing and we need slot in agenda for this

<Yves_> i should have some data categories working and useable too (XLIFF 1.2 and 2.0 output for example)

daveL: will have some integration between CMS-LION and mose MT and perhaps XLIGG

felix: ask eveyone to add any plans for demonstrations to prague agenda page

<fsasaki> http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/wiki/PragueSep2012#Objectives

<fsasaki> "Your implementations and use cases here: ..."

<scribe> ACTION: felix to follow up on demo commitments at prague under objectives on pargue agenda page [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2012/08/30-mlw-lt-minutes.html#action02]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-206 - Follow up on demo commitments at prague under objectives on pargue agenda page [on Felix Sasaki - due 2012-09-06].

felix: you can add a point to page showing more details also.

<fsasaki> dave: people can be free to set up a page for "their" implementation to put more details in

<fsasaki> felix: sure

ISSUE-22

felix; ISSUE 22 provenance, need update

<fsasaki> dave: working on it. For actual text need to add pointers to translation agent

<fsasaki> .. where was the issue related to mtScore

<fsasaki> .. standoff just needed the pointer version added

<fsasaki> .. felix had sent a comment about "standoff prov. MUST point to a provenance record"

<fsasaki> .. how would you test conformance on that

<fsasaki> .. is it sufficient to have a URL and get a URL back

<fsasaki> felix: how would validation work?

<fsasaki> dave: several options for that in provenance

<fsasaki> .. basically a GET operation and you get something back in a certain format

<fsasaki> .. if you have a pointer to one of the records

<fsasaki> .. they need to follow a link and do an HTTP get

<fsasaki> .. to retrieve it

<fsasaki> .. but do they have to parse the record

felix: you can have ITS data category conformance by access the URL, but there is more to showcasing functionality
... so test suite is artificial, but we want to have more live tests
... so we want the functional testing to really show the usefulness
... test can cover both, we can do both at the same time
... so current test suite isn't useful for real-life implementations

<Ankit> will having a MT system translate ITS metadata (as in testsuite) tagged text be an example of functional testing?

dave: suggest implementers provide thier funcitonal test when demoing in prague

yves; can provide some examples in prague

flix; to get some feedback on test suite input and output from HTML WG

<scribe> ACTION: felix to get some feedback on test suite input and output from HTML WG [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2012/08/30-mlw-lt-minutes.html#action03]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-207 - Get some feedback on test suite input and output from HTML WG [on Felix Sasaki - due 2012-09-06].

ISSUE-34 quality data category

<fsasaki> http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/drafts/its20/its20.html#lqissue

<fsasaki> http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/drafts/its20/its20.html#lqprecis

felix: yves has update specification as above

Des: did quality score issue get resolved
... there were 4 options mentioned

<fsasaki> see mail here http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-multilingualweb-lt/2012Aug/0267.html

yves: issue of whether it is a range or a vote need to be resolved, and an attribute added if both to be supported

Des: can live without voting if it overcomplicate things

Yves: lets check if other partners such as microsoft have an interest

Des: it is a valid use case

Yves: yes, but it should be an option in that data category rather than a new data category

Des: agrees

Yves; volunteer to add a proposal so we can explore the issues

<scribe> ACTION: yves to add an option to quality precis draft supporting voting ranges [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2012/08/30-mlw-lt-minutes.html#action04]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-208 - Add an option to quality precis draft supporting voting ranges [on Yves Savourel - due 2012-09-06].

readibility of the spec

<fsasaki> .. currrently trying to re-draft parts of section 1

<fsasaki> .. disambiguation is very hard to read

<fsasaki> .. using a lot of computational linguistic terminology

<fsasaki> .. propose not to change a lot, but the prose

<fsasaki> tadej: posted a new version a while ago, aware of this problem

<fsasaki> .. whole data category talks about computational linguistic domain

<dF> perhaps tadej should mute

felix: want to have some people to review some data category text with the eye of someone form a different domain

<scribe> ACTION: tadej to review readability and make proposals to improve readability to non-localisation people [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2012/08/30-mlw-lt-minutes.html#action05]

felix; also ask Dave, David and moritz to do a general review of the draft

<fsasaki> dave: some data catgories have examples that do something which is not explained. You need to explain: here is an example how an element is selected, given the values etc.

<fsasaki> .. some of Yves ones are quite good

<fsasaki> .. I'd encourage everybody to look into that

ISSUE-36 special requirements

felix: summarised changes to special requirements and yves to include this

action; yves to add allowed characters and stroage size to specification

<dF> Happy with "forbidden characters" and "storage size" solutions as per e-mail discussion..

<trackbot> Sorry, couldn't find user - Yves_

ISSUE-41 mtConfidence

dF: harmonisation issue to be resolved, e.g. with provenance
... need more granularity on translation agent for this to advance

<scribe> ACTION: daveL to call David to advance the transagent and mtconfirdence score harmonisation [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2012/08/30-mlw-lt-minutes.html#action09]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-212 - Call David to advance the transagent and mtconfirdence score harmonisation [on David Lewis - due 2012-09-06].

dF: ask tadej what score format is relevant to text analytics

tadej: either 0 to 1 or percentage would work, but 0-1 would work and is perhaps more common

<Michael> sorry, gotta run...cheers

tadej: summarize is 0 to 1 best solution
... this is simpler to process and percentage and can be XSD float

dF: agree we will go for this option

time of this call

<fsasaki> would it work for everybody to have it one our earlier?

<fsasaki> phil: would be OK

<Ankit> works for us too (DCU)
