We have had the wide review, we had several comments that we have acted upon. 20:10:16 ... We have based our Exit Criteria on the Time Ontology one 20:10:38 ... Feedback received was very positive but asked for examples so we have included several now. 20:11:00 ... These are in an appendix. Still working on them. 20:11:17 ... Had different understandings even within the group as to how to use the ontology. 20:11:34 ... We'll add these modelling approaches to the examples. 20:11:47 ... Apart from that, limited changes since the previous WD 20:11:58 ... Fixed some minor errors. 20:13:01 ... Split out the systems capabilities module. Used to have limited implementation evidence in old SSN so we have flagged it as at risk. We can make it non-normative if no evidence. 20:13:10 q? 20:13:40 eparsons: There seems to be a lot of change going on. 20:13:53 ... How much is tidying up content and how much is significant. 20:14:19 ahaller2: Changes in the last few minutes have been minor (hash for slash) 20:14:34 ... Making sections/sub sections etc. 20:14:35 q+ 20:14:51 ahaller2: In the last 4 weeks, very few errors. Really all about the examples. 20:15:21 ack next 20:15:29 eparsons: So the doc is stable 20:15:31 ahaller2: Yes 20:16:11 KJanowic: There hasn't been any work on the ontologies for weeks. We've been looking at the examples, the modules etc. Not the ontology 20:16:14 q+ 20:16:20 ack next 20:17:00 q+ 20:17:20 Yes, but you will see that these are examples, change logs, figures, etc 20:18:11 Phil: Did you get feedback on the interleaving of SOSA and SSN? 20:18:47 Armin: Not per se. There were several comments about the lack of examples, SOSA examples, but not on the presentation itself. 20:19:04 ... We've had lengthy discussions in the subgroup about this. 20:19:31 Phil: There's a reference to SSN system way before it gets defined. Please check. 20:19:33 q+ 20:19:37 mlefranc has joined #sdw 20:19:42 q+ 20:19:56 ack next 20:19:58 ack ahaller 20:19:59 ack next 20:20:47 Linda: I've not been following closely, but to be clear, the last WD was on 4 May and you're saying that this new ED is not really different from the published WD. 20:20:56 ahaller2: True. 20:21:30 ahaller2: It feels different because the ToC looks so different, but if you do a diff on the doc, apart from the examples etc. you'll see little change. 20:21:52 ahaller2: There were 2 errors fixed in the ontologies 20:22:08 Linda: ReSpec is showing 2 warnings (security and HTTPS URLs) 20:22:32 tidoust: You don't need one for this doc, I think. There isn't one in the Time Ontology either 20:22:46 ... And don't worry about the HTTPS thing - I'll fix that. 20:22:49 ack next 20:23:39 mlefranc: I'd like to say to Linda that all of the wide review, we asked people to look at the ED, so they've seen the latest version 20:25:17 q? 20:25:32 [ssn-system is mentioned in 5.2.2 but not introduced by then so needs some explanation] 20:25:47 mlefranc: Maybe we switch the horizontal sections around 20:25:50 ahaller2: That would do it 20:26:39 phila: What is the current status of implementations? 20:26:52 ahaller2: We have some at GSA, who have implemented SOSA 20:27:04 ... couple of million samples there 20:27:12 q+ 20:27:26 ... Several members working on implementations. We know Siemens is implementing it too. 20:27:40 q+ to mention need to have producers and consumers in implementations 20:27:42 ... we have the SSN Usage doc from earlier that needs updating 20:27:56 ... Only concern is around system capabilities 20:27:59 s/We know Siemens is /We know Siemens is looking into 20:28:01 ... hence splitting it up. 20:28:04 q+ to ask difference with dataset 20:28:20 ack next 20:28:43 ack next 20:28:44 tidoust, you wanted to mention need to have producers and consumers in implementations 20:28:53 KJanowic: What is the time line on the implementations? Esp given the direction on producers and consumers 20:29:12 tidoust: Yes, the Director would like to see both sides. The time line is basically end of June. 20:29:54 ... If we resolve to publish CR now, it will take a couple of weeks to arrange the Director's call. CR must be at least 4 weeks, so we would need an extension. 20:30:13 ... If we get one, it's going to be in a dormant mode, just to let the process run. 20:30:37 q+ 20:30:51 ack next 20:30:52 mlefranc, you wanted to ask difference with dataset 20:30:52 ... You really need to end the active work by the end of June. You should be able to show progress with implementation by then 20:31:16 joshlieberman has joined #sdw 20:31:40 mlefranc: Can I query the meaning of producers and consumers? So if we find evidence of producers, we need to find consumers of it? 20:31:47 tidoust: Not necessarily of the same dataset 20:32:00 mlefranc: There are lots of ways of using it 20:32:26 tidoust: The 3rd bullet in the exit criteria might cover this?? 20:32:47 tidoust: If it's captured there, you're fine. 20:33:13 mlefranc: if I develop an ontology that extends SOSA/SSN, does that count as an implementation? 20:33:42 tidoust: Where would you do that? The Director is interested in what's in public and in software. 20:34:05 mlefranc: We've got news from IETF to create a European standard based on SSN 20:34:24 tidoust: If it's in the pipe, that's good, even if it's not completed. 20:34:32 +1 for mlefranc 20:34:38 +q 20:35:01 ack next 20:35:03 eparsons: A consumer doesn't have to be software or a service, it can be someone extending the ontology 20:35:13 tidoust: It has to match the criteria in the document. 20:35:32 KJanowic: Because this is an ontology, consumers will include other ontologies. 20:35:38 ack next 20:35:39 tidoust: I don't see a problem with that. 20:36:13 DanhLePhuoc: The WoT WG has been discussing this a lot 20:36:23 ... So does that show usage? 20:36:35 ... And it's also being looked at for iot.schema.org 20:36:57 tidoust: The transition to Proposed Rec, the implementation should already be there. 20:37:44 ... Again, refer to the wording of the exit criteria [paraphrase] 20:38:16 eparsons: So in terms of a vote this evening, what's the appropriate wording? 20:38:27 * /s/IETF/ETSI 20:38:34 [I note there's a recent comment from Dirk Jan Venema that needs an answer too: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-sdw-comments/2017May/0024.html] 20:39:19 * @tidoust --> we will make an example specifically to address his question 20:39:33 phila: It might be... That the Editor's draft at @@@ be published as a Candidate Recommendation subject to, switching sections 5 and 6 around 20:40:19 q+ 20:40:23 phila: It might be... That the Editor's draft at @@@ be published as a Candidate Recommendation subject to, switching sections 5 and 6 around, and the Exit Criteria be updated in line with advice from the Director 20:40:31 ack k 20:40:58 KJanowic: If we're listing what will be done, then the examples in the appendix might be improved. 20:41:12 * but this is non normative section, tidoust said yesterday we can do it 20:41:57 tidoust: That comment came today, it's going to be addressed. 20:42:12 phila: Is that going to lead to a change? 20:42:36 mlefranc: There's one use case here that means one of us can write a use case to cover this. 20:42:47 phila: So you're talking about adding another example to the appendix? 20:42:52 mlefranc: Yep. 20:43:13 PROPOSED: That the Editor's draft at http://w3c.github.io/sdw/ssn/ be published as a Candidate Recommendation subject to, switching sections 5 and 6 around, and the Exit Criteria be updated in line with advice from the Director 20:45:05 eparsons has joined #sdw 20:45:08 PROPOSED: That the Editor's draft at http://w3c.github.io/sdw/ssn/ be published as a Candidate Recommendation subject to, switching sections 5 and 6 around, and the Exit Criteria be updated in line with advice from the Director 20:45:17 q+ to insist once more on exit criteria just in case 20:45:31 ack t 20:45:31 tidoust, you wanted to insist once more on exit criteria just in case 20:45:36 q+ 20:45:55 tidoust: Just to insist on the exit criteria once more. This is what the Director will look for - you'll have to prove it. 20:46:22 Thanks, we will look at the wording one more time 20:46:25 q+ 20:46:33 ... I had a call with the Director earlier today (about the Time Ontology) and he was asking about how each bullet would be proved. 20:46:45 ack a 20:47:12 http://w3c.github.io/sdw/ssn-usage/ 20:47:15 ahaller2: I am worried by the 'and' there... that makes it difficult 20:47:38 ... If we look at the usage of the old one, evidence might be missing for some classes and properties 20:47:51 ... I'm worried about making it too hard. 20:47:58 q? 20:48:06 ack m 20:48:15 ack a 20:48:15 ack next 20:48:20 q? 20:48:20 present+ 20:48:26 q? 20:48:40 mlefranc: For the 2nd point, I'd say something like it's an OWL ontology - every class must not be equivalent to OWL nothing. 20:48:49 q+ 20:48:57 ... No 2 classes conflate and... 20:49:13 ... and in the 3rd bullet, 2nd sub bullet... I think it's implied 20:49:37 ... Since you can say that if a sub class is used, so is its parent class 20:49:50 ack k 20:50:12 KJanowic: May I propose that we do the wordsmithing outside the meeting 20:50:25 q+ 20:50:39 q+ 20:50:44 q+ 20:51:21 ack m 20:51:21 Phil: Changing the exit criteria is quite an important decision. The group has to be comfortable that the exit criteria can be met. 20:51:31 I'm back I think... 20:52:00 mlefranc: I'm not talking about modifying the exit criteria, just the way that people will understand what they say. 20:52:21 ... I'm fine with it, as long as we change in line with Director's adavice 20:52:27 ack next 20:52:53 ahaller2: We don't want to change the exit criteria, Maxime was just saying that one point subsumes another. 20:53:30 q+ 20:53:32 ack next 20:54:38 [I have to teach a class in 5 min, if there would be a vote on moving SSN/SOSA to CR, I would vote +1] 20:54:42 ack next 20:54:44 KJanowic: Maybe this due to the technical language that we're using. We have to show implementation evidence. We're discussing how to word what is there 20:55:02 Linda: Are you confident that we can prove implementations? 20:55:30 ahaller2: If it's 4 for each class or property, we might need to make some non-normative 20:55:50 Linda: Then you might want to make those bits non-normative 20:56:14 q+ 20:56:23 eparsons: If we progress this, you have a month to work on the implementations, during which time there is the potential that some bits may fall out. 20:57:31 q- 20:57:43 phil: If you say here are 4 consuming bits of software, and there's one class that is used only once, I doubt that would be a problem. The Director is able to make a judgement call. 20:57:49 q+ 20:57:49 ... Goal is to prove usefulness. 20:57:57 ack next 20:58:24 Linda: I don't fee that confident about voting on this. It feels a little last minute and rushed. 20:58:38 ... I don't want to stop it, but I'm not comfortable. 20:58:47 q+ 20:58:48 eparsons: Well, you can vote zero. 20:58:54 ack next 20:59:21 ahaller2: On Linda's comment - can we make it explicit that the WG has 5 days to comment on the vote? 20:59:32 Linda: Can that go in the wording of the vote 21:00:20 PROPOSED: That the Editor's draft at http://w3c.github.io/sdw/ssn/ be published as a Candidate Recommendation subject to, switching sections 5 and 6 around, and the Exit Criteria be updated in line with advice from the Director. These changes to be made ASAP and the WG informed that it has been done. Any objection should be raised within 5 days of that notification. 21:01:49 +1 21:01:52 +1 21:02:07 +0 21:02:10 +0 21:02:12 +1 21:02:31 phila: Notes that Raúl sent a +1 in his mail 21:02:41 +1 21:02:43 *(and two other +1 recorded in the mailing list) 21:02:57 [KJanowic dropped from IRC but I would assume a +1 from him as well] 21:03:33 RESOLUTION: That the Editor's draft at http://w3c.github.io/sdw/ssn/ be published as a Candidate Recommendation subject to, switching sections 5 and 6 around, and the Exit Criteria be updated in line with advice from the Director. These changes to be made ASAP and the WG informed that it has been done. Any objection should be raised within 5 days of that notification. 21:04:13 eparsons: So Armin, the quicker you can get that done, the better. But it's still tight. 21:04:20 ahaller2: I'll do it right after the call. 21:04:23 q+ 21:04:27 ack next 21:04:28 eparsons: Any more questions? 21:04:43 Linda: I think there were more on the mailing list? 21:05:04 Linda: Bill supported it 21:05:29 -> https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-sdw-wg/2017May/0257.html Bill's vote 21:05:47 RRSAgent, draft minutes v2 21:05:47 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2017/05/31-sdw-minutes.html phila 21:06:01 woo - hoo 21:06:05 thanks to everyone! 21:06:07 eparsons: Good job, editors - lots of work has gone into this. 21:06:16 RRSAgent, draft minutes v2 21:06:16 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2017/05/31-sdw-minutes.html phila 21:06:16 bye 21:06:22 bye 21:06:23 bye 21:06:28 night all !! 21:07:23 RRSAgent, draft minutes v2 21:07:23 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2017/05/31-sdw-minutes.html phila
