I'm looking into combining Eric's test suite with the one from Gregg and Andy 16:09:23 ... also, additional tests for more coverage were submitted 16:09:40 q+ 16:09:42 q+ to discuss sandro's proposal for ordering the tests 16:09:52 ... also a proposal to change the test suite to make it easier to check results 16:09:57 ... we plan to do all of these things 16:09:58 ack AndyS 16:10:28 AndyS: We've already asked people to run the tests. No we change them again. What about the process? 16:11:02 ... Secondly, there is no right order of triples in the files. Concerned about putting too much emphasis on testing line by line 16:11:22 gavinc: I'm not too concerned about the process. We did not announce availability of a test suite. 16:11:30 ack ericP 16:11:30 ericP, you wanted to discuss sandro's proposal for ordering the tests 16:12:18 ericP: Regarding ordering of statements, there is indeed no mandated order. One could argue for the order implied by the algebra 16:12:23 ... Dave Beckett's proposed change is very useful for readers. 16:12:58 ... So I'm sympathetic to his request, despite agreeing in general that the test suite should depend on graph isomorphism and not order 16:13:13 q+ to state 16:13:42 ... Sandro proposed to put the atomic tests before the other tests, to make it clearer why a parser fails the tests 16:14:54 guus: Concerned about timeline. Want to publish ASAP. 16:15:17 gavinc: The test suite was supposed to be published with the PR. Some implementers are complaining why it wasn't. 16:15:25 ... so would get it out immediately 16:15:57 ericP: I appreciate the difficulty of having a moving target for implementers, but this is also where we get help from the community to get the test suite into good shape 16:16:16 q+ 16:16:17 guus: Decision on March 20 for the test suite needed to go to PR? 16:16:33 ack Guus 16:16:33 Guus, you wanted to state 16:16:49 gavinc: What is the process for updating the document to add link to the test suite, point out changes? 16:17:01 guus: Sandro said that already 16:17:13 sandro: We can't change the published document 16:17:29 ... but can change our web page 16:17:48 zakim, unmute me 16:17:48 Ivan should no longer be muted 16:17:51 ericP: We could also republish the document, with editorial changes 16:17:52 q+ 16:17:56 sandro: I suppose we could 16:18:22 ... never heard of anyone doing this, but why not 16:18:32 ReSpec actually has a way to show the test suite location in the head of the document. 16:18:47 ivan: The document points to the wiki. The wiki has the details. We don't need to change the document. 16:18:57 gavinc: There's also an error in the list of changes. 16:19:08 guus: We can fix that for PR publication. 16:19:26 ... So we should change the wiki page now, and fix the list of changes when going to PR. 16:19:47 gavinc: Where is this link to the test suite in the document? I don't see it in the status section. 16:20:17 ivan: In the CR request wiki page 16:20:30 gavinc, what's inaccurate in the changes since last doc? 16:20:36 ... And that can be fixed, it's just a group-internal document. 16:20:38 s/doc/publication/ 16:21:17 ericP, "Renaming for STRING_* productions to STRING_LITERAL_QUOTE style names rather than numbers " "Local part of prefix names can now include ":" " "Turtle in HTML ", were all in Last Call 16:21:18 guus: Gavin, can we get everything complete in two weeks? 16:21:20 CR ends March 26th 16:21:20 gavinc: Yes. 16:21:23 q- 16:21:54 q- 16:22:00 ack ivan 16:22:28 " The Candidate Recommendation period ends 26 March 2013" 16:22:37 [discussion of when exactly CR ends] 16:23:12 The minimal duration for this CR period is until 26 March, 2013. 16:23:13 guus: It should have said that it ends no earlier than 26 March (?) 16:23:43 ericP: My mistake. 16:23:55 ... In my defense, I did it from a plane. 16:24:06 guus: We didn't spot it. 16:24:07 s 16:24:42 sandro: We have lots of ways to reach out to the community. 16:25:18 q+ 16:25:30 zakim, mute me 16:25:30 Ivan should now be muted 16:25:35 ericP: We should decide what the structure will be regarding EARL reports. Do we keep separate syntax and semantic tests, or unify them so that each test has a "parse" and "graph match" result (?) 16:26:13 AndyS: Rather than asking people to do two things on each test, why not just keep them separate? 16:26:34 sandro: Being able to parse, but not correctly handle, is not worth reporting. 16:27:09 gkellogg: The way EARL works, we can't have it report that the test was both parsed and processed. 16:27:22 q- 16:27:33 gavinc: We have positivie and negative syntax tests, and evaluation tests. 16:28:02 ericP: We said before that there is no reason that a semantics test isn't also a syntax test. 16:28:17 q? 16:28:19 sandro: Sure, but there is no reason to formalize that. 16:28:49 [scribe missed some discussion] 16:29:10 sandro: Do we require every implementer to submit EARL? Or is it fine if they just say "I passed all tests" 16:30:23 +1 andy: the test suite might change, so "passed all the tests" isn't good enough 16:30:25 AndyS: Concerned about people just saying they passed the tests if we are changing the test 16:30:37 ... Rigorous testing is black and white 16:30:44 sandro: I find that compelling. 16:31:02 topic: Semantics 16:31:23 guus: Peter was asking whether ED URL is the right version 16:31:36 Peter: Pat got the latest version up. 16:32:05 pfps: I think it's okay for FPWD 16:32:18 q+ 16:32:23 ... It's not yet done, has pointers to things that still need to be done 16:32:39 ... So none of the issues should need to delay FPWD 16:32:50 ... One issue, as far as I know 16:33:00 zakim, unmute me 16:33:00 Ivan should no longer be muted 16:33:04 ... Antoine noted correctly that the WG decided something 16:33:41 ... The term "vocabulary" is overloaded 16:33:58 ... Pat changed the technical definition, and Antoine thinks it's a significant change 16:34:09 it does not change the world, but it changes something 16:34:09 ... My impression is that it's a technical issue internal to the semantics 16:35:03 e.g., {

} would entail { rdf:type rdfs:Resource} 16:35:05 ... I think Antoine is technically correct, but it doesn't matter, at least not to implementations 16:35:14 q+ 16:35:46 q+ 16:36:08 ... Also, blank node scope. It's a hot potato being passed back and forth between semantics and concepts 16:36:19 ... Pat passed it back to concepts, but concepts doesn't have it yet 16:36:39 ... Can be sorted out after FPWD 16:39:17 cygri: I can review the document, saying if I see any issues with moving to FPWD. I will have more detailed comments too, but this can wait 16:39:40 AZ: If we want to change the way interpretations are defined, then it needs a collective WG resolution. 16:40:12 ... And Semantics used blank node scope, which Concepts doesn't define yet. 16:40:19 q- 16:40:20 q- 16:40:26 ... No other critical issues. 16:40:41 guus: Then I can put decision about Semantics FPWD on next week's agenda 16:40:41 q? 16:40:44 ack me 16:41:10 ... Thanks to Pat and Peter for moving this forward so quickly 16:41:13 Topic: Concepts 16:41:35 We have open issue on scope of blank nodes 16:41:40 ISSUE-107? 16:41:40 ISSUE-107 -- Revised definition of blank nodes -- open 16:41:40 http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/track/issues/107 16:42:00 I will scribe 16:42:01 i can do 16:42:27 cygri: the issue has been open for a while... we had some concrete proposals 16:43:03 ... now that we have a semantics draft that relies on this makes the issue more pressing 16:43:22 ... it is a joint issue between the 2 documents 16:43:35 ... we need to ensure to keep them consistent 16:44:17 ... I'm quite busy at the moment so I can't spend much time on concepts at the moment 16:44:30 ... this won't change in the next 2 weeks 16:45:25 We are under time pressure.. according our schedule we should publish it in two weeks 16:46:01 cygri: Given that semantics is just going to FPWD concepts isn't that late 16:46:37 ... the docs have tight dependencies.. the sooner we go LC with concepts the bigger the risk for semantics if we need to change something 16:46:45 q+ 16:46:49 q+ 16:47:00 zakim, unmute me 16:47:00 Ivan was not muted, ivan 16:47:03 ... they should probably be updated in lock step and ideally should go to LC at the same time 16:47:39 guus: I will put it back on the agenda in two weeks, is that OK? 16:47:42 cygri: sure 16:47:57 guus: I will put it on the agenda for March 20 16:47:58 q- 16:48:07 q? 16:48:14 ack ivan 16:48:30 gkellogg_ has joined #rdf-wg 16:48:53 ivan: As an FPWD, I would be okay with publishing the Semantics today 16:49:18 q+ 16:49:37 FPWD has administrative work attached etc 16:49:44 +1 to publish ASAP for FPWD. (?? Just add a list of items to discuss in the status.) 16:50:12 ... not necessary to solve all the technical issues 16:50:13 q- 16:50:20 ivan: I'd be happy making a decision this week 16:50:28 guus: I prefer to have two reviews. 16:50:31 I've already said that I think that the current document is fine for a FPWD. However, for a FPWD I think we need reviews. 16:50:56 I think that a message should go out to the WG that a vote on FPWD is on for next week for semantics. 16:50:58 zakim, mute me 16:50:58 Ivan should now be muted 16:51:27 topic: JSON-LD 16:51:54 guus: There was an extensive (to say the least) review from Sandro 16:52:07 ... Can we get a 2nd review? 16:52:45 sandro: Should that review happen before or after my comments are addressed? 16:53:15 ... Depends on whether the editors want a 2nd opinion on some of the changes 16:53:35 I'll step up, do my best 16:54:22 gkellogg: We will discuss Sandro's comments in our next call on Tuesday. 16:54:43 sandro: I think JSON-LD is great, the design is solid and I have no concerns about it. My comments are mostly editorial. 16:54:57 ... Some issues about how conformance is stated and forward compatibility. 16:55:22 ... The main editorial question is regarding editorial division between this document and the API document. 16:55:27 q+ 16:55:38 ... I want this document to be complete as an RDF syntax. 16:55:49 ... Have a complete mapping to RDF in this document. 16:56:08 ack gkellogg 16:56:22 gkellogg: I liked your suggestion to have a brief summary of the RDF transformation algorithm 16:57:10 ...
