<sandro> trackbot, start meeting

<HadleyBeeman1> Thanks, Sandro :)

<trackbot> Meeting: Government Linked Data Working Group Teleconference

<trackbot> Date: 24 October 2013

<gatemezin> Hi all.. sorry I will be on irc..

<sandro> gatemezin, JoaoPauloAlmeida you folks calling in?

<sandro> scribe: DeirdreLee

<JoaoPauloAlmeida> sorry I need to leave

<JoaoPauloAlmeida> I messed up the daylight saving time

<JoaoPauloAlmeida> my apologies

<sandro> no worries

DeirdreLee: Fadi commits to one implementation for DCAT, probably on Irish Open Data that we've already been working on

<scribe> ACTION: hadleybeeman to follow-up with fadmaa and johnerickson on whether there are commitments for DCAT implementations [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2013/10/24-gld-minutes.html#action01]

<trackbot> Error finding 'hadleybeeman'. You can review and register nicknames at <http://www.w3.org/2011/gld/track/users>.

@sandro: based on timeline, we have to decide in today's call whether we are proceeding to REC track

<gatemezin> sandro , yes. I called before but I was not able to listen the conf. So I dropped the call

hadleybeeman: there is a commitment from DERI, but not another commitment confirmed
... correction, there is another commitment confirmed from John Erickson

@sandro: comment on spec from Tom Baker on DCAT spec & profile - will this effect moving to REC track? probably not, as it is more an editorial issue

hadleybeeman: commitment from bhyland to have updated version of best practice doc by 10th November

boris: I was talking to ghislain about best practice document. What is the deadline for the updated version of this doc?

hadleybeeman: absolute deadline is the end of the year, but it would be good to have an updated version well enough in advance to account for feedback & review

<gatemezin> +1 to have an updated version (almost final) version by mid November

boris: the URI section and SKOS section will be improved on in the document

hadleybeeman: it would be great to finalise this document and have it approved as a WG Note by 3rd wk of Dec, so the final draft should be ready a month before, so 3rd week of Nov,
... so in order to allow for group discussion, the draft should be ready by 10th Nov

@sandro if needs be, we could skip the public draft stage

@hadleybeeman is any other help needed for best practice doc?

<sandro> PROPOSED: Advance DCAT to Candidate Recommendation, with the exit criteria of each term dcat namespace being properly used by two or more data sources

@boris not yet, editors will work on it first and then get back to us

<sandro> PROPOSED: Advance DCAT to Candidate Recommendation, with the exit criteria of each term in the dcat namespace being properly used by two or more data sources

@sandro: how terms from other vocabularies are been used with dcat should not effect the exit criteria, difference between if we're evaluation the DCAT spec or profile

<TallTed> +1 as sandro suggests, i.e., track (profile-based) DCAT usage broadly, with narrower (vocab-based) exit criteria

hadleybeeman: if having a separate spec and profile is causing us trouble, perhaps this will also cause issues in the transition meeting

<gatemezin> +1 to Sandro proposal ... I will try to help consumers like this one opendata.montpelliernumerique.fr/Les-donnees?format=rdf to use the latest version of DCAT.

<gatemezin> ..I hope to convince them ;-)

@sandro: we need to discuss practical details of implementation and exit. But fadmaa is needed for this conversation

a?

@sandro: can hadleybeeman do the transition request?

@sandro: most difficult part is to go through comments page and write a couple of paragraphs of an overview, and just make sure everything has been addressed

@sandro: describes Tom Baker's comment..

scribe: don't think it's a blocking issue, shouldn't stop us doing CR today, but should be addressed

PhilA: in two months time it's christmas eve :)

hadleybeeman: makes sense to have conversation with Fadi and John present

PhilA: issue isn't specific to DCAT, it's an ongoing issue of how vocabularies/profiles fit together

@sandro: investigating what public data sources w3c have and could implement as DCAT....will look into it further

<gatemezin> @Sandro, It could be great that work... If you need a volunteer for that, I am IN ;-)

@sandro: the proposal wasn't on the agenda, so people weren't given chance to attend and voice opinion specifically

scribe: will follow up with an email after for people to write their +1s or to object

<hadleybeeman> PROPOSED: Advance DCAT to Candidate Recommendation, with the exit criteria of each term in the dcat namespace being properly used by two or more data sources. (as typed above)

@sandro: +1

<hadleybeeman> +1

+1

<PhilA> +1

<boris> +1

<TallTed> +1

<PhilA> yay!

<gatemezin> +1

<hadleybeeman> RESOLVED: Advance DCAT to Candidate Recommendation, with the exit criteria of each term in the dcat namespace being properly used by two or more data sources
