Contact Karen with questions 15:15:01 Topic: Use Cases 15:15:12 -> http://www.w3.org/dpub/IG/wiki/UseCase_Directory Use case directory 15:15:13 Markus; move on to wiki activities http://www.w3.org/dpub/IG/wiki/UseCase_Directory 15:15:29 s/Markus;/Markus:/ 15:15:58 Markus: structure of use case directory is also somewhat arbitrary, expect it to change later on 15:16:28 ...two initial use cases from naka-tobira needs input 15:16:36 ...and transclusion 15:16:56 ...both are still state "new" and no need to change yet 15:17:33 ...we will probably leave use cases as "new" until we have a large sample and blessing from larger group 15:17:44 ...new use cases on math from jean 15:17:59 Subtopic: Math use cases 15:18:05 -> http://www.w3.org/dpub/IG/wiki/MathML_UC Math Use cases 15:18:39 Jean: there are 2 different kinds of mathML - content-based and presentation-based MathML 15:19:10 ...most browsers have taken a stab at presentation-based MathML. It is easier. 15:19:44 ...We talk of separation of content and presentation. In math, presentation can change meaning of content. 15:20:06 ...There needs to be a way to render MathML in general. Lack of native support in web engines. 15:20:50 ...second use case http://www.w3.org/dpub/IG/wiki/MathML_UC#MathML_2 is for dynamic use of math 15:21:43 ...this is done with presentational MathML. user interacts with math. It is only when get to very high level math that require content MathML 15:22:07 q+ 15:22:11 q+ to mention (1) Math WG is interested in case 2, and (2) ask how case 3 would be authored. 15:22:40 .....3rd case http://www.w3.org/dpub/IG/wiki/MathML_UC#MathML_3 involves using MathML with interactivity that uses results 15:23:07 ,,,connects computational results of research outside of the publication 15:23:17 s/,,,/.../ 15:23:33 ...these use cases were written by Peter Krautzberger of MathJax javascript library 15:23:35 q? 15:23:58 ack Bill_Kasdorf 15:25:59 Bill: a common use case: publisher input variables on graph, and changes visual display. Does this require content MathML or is presentational OK? 15:26:15 ack Bert 15:26:15 Bert, you wanted to mention (1) Math WG is interested in case 2, and (2) ask how case 3 would be authored. 15:26:23 Jean: to start with, presentational may be OK. The goal is to get something supported 15:26:59 Bert: I am on Math WG. Use case 2 is already in progress in Math WG 15:27:11 -duga 15:27:40 q+ 15:27:44 ...question about use case 3 - who will author this? who will add semantic part? 15:27:58 +duga 15:28:13 Jean: I can't say. The authoring tools that exist are designscience, LaTeX, and something else 15:29:22 ...Authoring tools are behind the scene. This needs to be part of use case. Will talk to Peter and bring back to Math WG 15:29:28 ack Bill_Kasdorf 15:30:14 Bill: Scholarly publishing often asks how researchers are using web to do their work and how they publish their work 15:31:24 ...consider whether mathematicians are doing the work or publishing it 15:32:00 Jean: there is a distinction. That is use case 3 - the interactive book. 15:32:21 ...whether this gains traction remains to be seen, but it is a use case 15:33:27 Markus: can we make use case 2 more specific in terms of interacting with math? 15:34:21 ...we expect to have many use cases of interaction. This may benefit from having specialized examples. 15:34:33 ...How does this interact with math? 15:34:46 Jean: will talk to Peter about adding examples. 15:34:47 q+ 15:34:54 ack ivan 15:35:49 Ivan: general question: Have heard that current status of MathML implementation is bad. 15:36:13 ...what kind of additional documentation would be helpful to publishing industry? 15:36:26 ...what would improve the state of MathML support? 15:36:40 Jean: there have been some one on one discussions 15:36:54 ...Peter K and Jean will do a call to action 15:37:29 for publishers to adequately specify what their needs are for browser and reading system vendors 15:37:54 s/for/...for 15:38:32 Bert: this is a regular topic for Math WG as well 15:39:09 ...Firefox tries to do the right thing. Chrome had some security issues, so shut it off, probably need some engineering help 15:39:16 ...if have ideas, let Bert know 15:39:48 +1 Jean 15:39:54 Subtopic: book semantics 15:40:11 scribe: azaroth 15:40:40 Tzviya: I mentioned this briefly, in HTML structural semantics don't rewflect the issues we have. H1 is the highest structure, and in books that's nested in many other levels 15:40:59 ... typically there is part or chapter first, so it would be good to have structure that reflects part and chapter before H1 15:41:18 ... Chapter is typically labeled H1 and h1 in print would be h2, making it confusing or it gets tagged incorrectly 15:41:25 q+ 15:41:29 ... the highest level gets a div, and then h1 so it's not correct 15:41:38 ack ivan 15:42:07 Ivan: To be technical, there is something called a role attribute which is defined and something HTML5 acks as a possible attribute even if not in the WG 15:42:39 ... at first glance this attribute could be used for that, question to Tzviya if that is correct. It can be put on any element so can give the right semantics 15:43:10 ... the problem with this, and where this group may come up with requirements, at the moment the way that html5 defines the possible values that can be used for role is fairly restrictive 15:43:18 Markus: it's only aria 15:43:39 q+ 15:43:46 Ivan: Where we would go with the requirement would be to have some sort of mechanism whereby the allowed values could be extended in view of this requirement 15:43:55 ... that might be one way of solving the issue, if I understand 15:44:07 Tzviya: I think roles could be appropriate if able to be extended 15:44:24 Markus: We just need an agreement on what to use. Could be rdfa or microdata etc. At the moment a big ? 15:44:33 Ivan: FOr other reasons rdfa not appropriate 15:44:43 Markus: No need to discuss solutions, just to make sure use case is clear 15:44:50 ... Need to answer the question why you want to do this 15:45:19 ... GOtten that back from html WG before -- need to understand why you want to do this, so need to document extra reasons 15:45:27 q? 15:45:33 ack Bill_Kasdorf 15:45:33 ack Bill_Kasdorf 15:45:53 Bill_Kasdorf: Quick comment -- one side is the semantic, the other side is the implied structure of the document starting with H1 15:46:11 ... as pointed out publishers want to define structure outside of the H* structure. Not just semantic. 15:46:26 Markus: Gets interesting quickly, eg glossaries and dictionaries and relations that have meaning 15:46:38 ... descendants can have implied or explicit semantics depending on their parents. 15:47:10 ... Don't think it's a fair request to expect html5/svg to incorporate domain specific rules natively Need to have extensibility independent of the core specs 15:47:23 ... No one else on queue, so no more questions? 15:47:35 -duga 15:47:49 ... Again, request to update, and willing to work with you on it. 15:48:02 scribe: tzviya 15:48:18 Subtopic: social reading 15:48:42 Rob: social reading use cases 15:48:55 +duga 15:49:07 .....four basic and simple use cases 15:49:30 ... http://www.w3.org/dpub/IG/wiki/Anno_Basic_1 a simple comment made by a user 15:50:00 ...may wish to make the comment public 15:50:09 comments are mostly for identity 15:50:34 ...use case 2 http://www.w3.org/dpub/IG/wiki/Anno_Basic_2 for tagging "this is mine" 15:51:07 ... use case 3 structured comment, review for quality 15:51:49 q+ 15:52:02 ... use case 4 - private comment, not for public platform but does need to go from one device to another 15:52:09 q+ 15:52:12 ...such as from my nook to my ipadf 15:52:22 ack ivan 15:52:34 s/ipadf/ipad 15:52:46 -JeanKaplansky 15:53:06 ivan: refer only to open annotations 15:53:42 ...open annotations does not define all the technical mechanisms for porting data (for example) 15:54:11 ...something like that is probably necessary. 15:54:36 ...this requirement goes way beyond OA and may involve many other groups 15:55:05 Rob: agreed. Relevant groups need to be filled out. The list could be very long 15:55:32 ...Could pull in SVG and media fragments or assume by reference 15:56:31 Ivan: we should take one of simpler use cases and people who have worked on this should do thought experiment to determine what is needed 15:56:55 ack fjh 15:57:45 Frederick: we need to understand that some things are external. 15:58:15 ...It would help use cases to understand what has been done already and what needs to be done. 15:58:36 ...we need to narrow scope because this is such a broad area 15:59:01 Rob: OA group has some implementation experience. 15:59:26 ...Scope question - are we talking about annotating EPUB or web? 15:59:45 ...being more specific would be helpful 16:00:22 +1 to considering web as part of the scope 16:00:31 ...internal/external question - approach in dpub should not be just internal to publication, but approach whole web (IMO) 16:00:56 markus: agreed. Approach the whole web. We are looking to bridge the gap 16:01:01 +1 to bridging 16:01:27 Markus: ask Rob to continue adding use cases 16:01:49 Topic: future issues 16:01:59 -duga 16:02:04 -fjh 16:02:06 ...if have use cases, talk to Markus or Madi 16:02:07 -azaroth 16:02:09 -Bernard 16:02:11 -plinss 16:02:16 meeting adjourned 16:02:17 -Vlad 16:02:21 +1 Tzviya 16:02:26 -Bill_Kasdorf 16:02:28 -Tsviya 16:02:29 -Bert 16:02:30 -mgylling 16:02:33 rrsagent, draft minutes 16:02:33 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2013/08/27-dpub-minutes.html karen_ 16:02:33 -Ivan 16:02:46 -Karen_Myers 16:02:50 zakim, who is here? 16:02:50 On the phone I see Sharad 16:02:51 On IRC I see Bernard, Sharad, Bert, azaroth, mgylling, tzviya, fjh, karen_, Zakim, RRSAgent, ivan, trackbot, plinss, sandro 16:03:28 trackbot, stop telcon 16:03:28 Sorry, ivan, I don't understand 'trackbot, stop telcon'.
