<dug> comments at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-resource-access/2009Aug/0055.html

RESOLUTION: Incorporated resolutions in 2009-07-24 snapshots of mex and rt accepted

Review of action items

Bob: Notes that good progress has been made on action items and and reminds members to keep an eye on due dates

Progress on ws-frag

ram: needs a few more days to polish

bob: fpwd needs to be out by sept (next month) in order to hold our schedule

ram: that's acceptable

Issue-7365 http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=7365

bob: objection to proposal?

RESOLUTION: Issue-7365 resolved as proposed

Issue-7235 http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=7235

<dug> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-resource-access/2009Aug/0070.html

Dug: explains issue and proposal

<dug> ** New dialect

<dug> definitions MUST include sufficient information for proper application.

<dug> For example, it would need to include the context (which data) over which

<dug> the filter operates. ***

bob: append proposed text to previous proposal?

asir: when does context change?

dug: context of xpath changes from envelope to event data

context may change for other uri too, like actionURI

Asir: i don't recall discussing change of context being discussed

<dug> "... a new dialect might be defined to support filtering based on data not included in the notification message itself."

Gil: generic use of xpath is insufficient as it doesn't tell the context

therefore, ws-e needs a new uri to convey the context

Asir: it's new to me that uri indicates context

Dug: filter always needs context

Tom: do we need context to complicate thing?

Dug: yes, we have filter on action, topic, etc. beside just event data itself

Asir: uri needs to point to stable xpath

Dug: maybe to separate flexibility to another issue

Bob: we can define a uri for backward compability, folks will be able to define a filter accordingly

Asir: it's ok if this is a simple case

<asir> Asir: if we were to define our own namespace name then this would be a unique case and not set any precedence

Dug: we have to do it as gil explained the use cases

Asir: it's not clear what is replaced

Dug: two parts: one is to swap out uri; the other is the text

<dug> new text is in: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-resource-access/2009Aug/0070.html

figuring out the consolidated proposal...

asir: make uri to xpath 1.0?

daves: a different uri for xpath 2.0 then?

<asir> Here is the draft proposal

<asir> 1. Append to Section '[Body]/wse:Subscribe/wse:Filter/@Dialect

<asir> '

<asir> *** New dialect definitions MUST include sufficient informalion for proper application. For example, it would need to include the context (which data) over which the filter operates. ***

<asir> 2. Replace http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xpath-19991116 with http://www.w3.org/2009/02/ws-evt/Dialects/XPath10

<dug> 3. and similar for enum

bob: any object to the above proposal to 7235?

RESOLUTION: Issue-7235 resolved with proposal above without objection

Issue-7270 http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=7270

<dug> Unless otherwise noted, all URIs are absolute URIs and URI comparison MUST be performed according to [RFC 3986] section 6.2.1.

<Ram> test

yves: it's better to stay within uri instead of iri

Bob: any objections to the proposal?

ram: any exception to the general rule?

dug: i couldn't find any...

RESOLUTION: Issue-7270 resolved as proposed

Issue-7160 http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=7160

RESOLUTION: Issue- 7160 resolved as proposed

New Issue-7426

RESOLUTION: Issue-7426 accepted as a new issue

bob: ban the use of iri where uri comparison is used?

<dug> can we see some text?

AI for yves to propose text for 7426

<asir> ACTION: Yves to propose text for issue 7426 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/08/25-ws-ra-minutes.html#action01]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-97 - Propose text for issue 7426 [on Yves Lafon - due 2009-09-01].

Issue-7196 http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=7196

<asir> Didn't you resolve it last week?

<asir> doubly resolved!

RESOLUTION: Issue-7196 resolved (or resolution confirmed)

Issue-6533 http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6533

yves: explains the issue

dug: why do we need this?

yves: we need to specify the property of that operation

dug: do we need to do the same for "getstatus"?

yves: we should spell out for all safe operations

<gpilz> +1

dug: then we need to apply it to all specs

asir: why not idempotent?

<asir> Here is a link to Feb discussion ... http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-resource-access/2009Feb/0045.html

yves: we could do that if people like it

gil: this is a constraint on implementations
... we should do it for other specs as well

<dug> +1 obviously

gil: find all safe operations first

<scribe> ACTION: yves to include all safe operations in all specs [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/08/25-ws-ra-minutes.html#action02]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-98 - Include all safe operations in all specs [on Yves Lafon - due 2009-09-01].

Issue-6401 http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6401

<gpilz> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-resource-access/2009Aug/att-0057/wseventing_6401-6.html

gil: explains the new proposal 6401

looks ok to me

<dug> interesting - I'm missing the section header for appendix A when I look at the html version too - but the word doc is ok

<dug> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-resource-access/2009Aug/att-0061/ws-eventing-6401-6-dug2.doc

dug: some editorial changes, remove duplicates about mex

<Bob> Dug presents an amended proposal

<Ram> I would like to understand this sentence in Dug's revision: "An Event Source there MUST NOT exist more than one EventDescription document."

ram: why that constraint?

dug: it's in the original proposal

gil: more than ED document complicates relations to NW

asir: i don't fully understand the requirement
... to relate ED and NW

dug: one ED doc should be returned, more than one adds complexity
... one ED doc hides complexity

asir: multiple docs is supported by mex in multi sections

<Zakim> dug, you wanted to ask a clarifying question

dug: what subscriber do with multi docs?

asir: client handles multi-docs according to the standards

gil: we are profiling mex
... we make it clear how different parts are related

<asir> Gil - i was only trying to help you! Nothing more.

<dug> sorry - power went out

gil: if two ED docs and two NW docs are returned, then which goes which is not clear

<asir> Vow .. are we closing 6401?

+q

<dug> never! :-)

<dug> I can send in a new rev with the typo that Ram noticed fixed

<dug> if people want

li: would like to read it

ram: we would like to postpone it until next week

bob: review dug's proposal next week as basis of 6401

<DaveS> Goodnight

<gpilz> good job li!

bob: declare victory for today...
