Hi I mean
14:01:37 [Steven]
Mark is in a delayed train so may be 15 mins late
14:01:40 [Zakim]
SW_BPD(rdfxhtml)9:00AM has now started
14:01:44 [Steven]

14:01:44 [Zakim]
On the phone I see no one
14:01:45 [Zakim]

14:03:19 [RalphS]
Topic: integration of RDF/A syntax into XHTML specs.
14:03:34 [RalphS]
Steven: integration is proceeding. We hope it will be done by the end of this week.
14:04:08 [RalphS]
Ralph: will this TF be given a URI of an editor's draft for us to glance at?
14:04:13 [RalphS]
Steven: yes, absolutely
14:04:27 [RalphS]
... to speed up the process we're inclined to say now "comment on the Last Call draft"
14:04:42 [RalphS]
... as if we issue another WD now it will delay Last Call
14:04:57 [RalphS]
... every time we reissue a draft we get lots of new comments that prevent us from exiting Last Call
14:05:36 [RalphS]
... so we'd like to give the TF a final Last Call
14:05:54 [RalphS]
Ralph: can we see a "final" editor's draft?
14:05:54 [RalphS]
Steven: if you really, really want
14:06:40 [RalphS]
Ralph: it would be reasonable to ask the TF to restrict its comments to "show stoppers"
14:07:35 [benadida]
Ralph: if integration finished this week, then next week's telecon is probably when you decide readiness for publishing
14:07:41 [benadida]
Steven: yes
14:07:58 [benadida]
... the integration will be done this week, though we might not be in last call next week.
14:09:06 [benadida]
Ralph: how does the XHTML WG share editors' drafts?
14:09:14 [benadida]
Steve: nightly build URL that I'll send along
14:09:42 [benadida]
Ralph: so we can look at the nightly build over the weekend
14:12:57 [benadida]
ACTION: once Steven sends editors' draft of XHTML2, all TF members take a look and comment on showstopper issues only

14:19:34 [RalphS]
Topic: Issue 9; <link href='...'>
14:19:52 [RalphS]
Steven: so the proposal is that <link> should be equivalent to <a>?
14:20:09 [RalphS]
... other option is to say that only <a> is intended to be clickable
14:20:23 [RalphS]
Ben: note that <link> has the special semantics of 'refers to parent element only'
14:20:46 [RalphS]
Steven: <link> currently has the property that the links are often accessible in the browser
14:20:52 [RalphS]
... e.g. <link rel='next'>
14:20:57 [RalphS]
... shows up in a menu
14:21:08 [RalphS]
... what's new in XHTML2 now is that <link> is permitted in body
14:21:16 [RalphS]
Ben: is content permitted in <link>?
14:21:22 [RalphS]
... if so, what does it mean?
14:21:43 [RalphS]
Steven: yes, content is permitted. It's a question whether <link> is display:none
14:22:19 [RalphS]
Ben: it's a decision for the HTML WG to say whether link is display:none by default and can be overridden by stylesheets
14:22:43 [RalphS]
... would it be the case that the value of display can be overridden in a stylesheet?
14:23:10 [RalphS]
Steven: the attribute that makes <link> clickable is not specifiable in a stylesheet
14:23:37 [RalphS]
... since href is now permitted everywhere, this raises the question of whether every element now becomes clickable
14:24:13 [MarkB_]
MarkB_ has joined #swbp
14:24:27 [RalphS]
... the HTML WG's current feeling is that the href is accessible to the user in some way but not necessarily rendered in the same way as <a>
14:25:21 [RalphS]
Ben: this could be an issue for users if href has both RDF semantics and other semantics
14:25:39 [Zakim]
+??P7
14:25:47 [MarkB_]
zakim, i am ?
14:25:47 [Zakim]
+MarkB_; got it
14:26:04 [RalphS]
Ralph: could be a user interoperability problem; href seems likely to get some presentation semantics which might differ between browsers
14:27:10 [RalphS]
-> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-in-xhtml-tf/2005Dec/0016 "Discussing Outsanding Issues - Issue #9" [Ben 2005-12-11]
14:27:51 [RalphS]
Ben: is the HTML WG leaning towards making href on other elements behave differently than on <a>?
14:28:06 [RalphS]
Steven: I think that <meta> and <link> are display:none
14:28:34 [RalphS]
... but the question still arises on what happens of the stylesheet does make it displayable
14:29:23 [RalphS]
... my feeling is that if <link> or <meta> is made visible it should not appear as a primary clickable link
14:29:55 [RalphS]
Mark: as soon as we say that href is a left-clickable link everywhere this makes things consistent
14:30:22 [RalphS]
... then if we say these elements are display:none by default [we are compatible with older browsers]
14:30:59 [RalphS]
... right-button on a <blockquote>, for example, would be a nice way to show a menu of all links from this quote
14:31:28 [RalphS]
... not unlike what browsers do to create a menu bar for <link rel='next'>
14:32:55 [RalphS]
Steven: the question is where to draw the line between the XHTML specification and user agent behaviour
14:33:13 [RalphS]
... whether [user agent behaviour] should be made normative or not
14:34:11 [RalphS]
Ben: the question of default value of display really only applies when the <link> or <meta> is not empty
14:34:44 [RalphS]
Mark: I suggest we say that the link content is an rdfs:label that applies to the subject
14:35:19 [RalphS]
... with inline text [content] a clever browser can use the rdfs:label in its menu
14:36:29 [RalphS]
Ben: <li href=''> is clickable, right?
14:36:47 [RalphS]
Mark: yes, and with the primary means of navigation
14:37:20 [RalphS]
Ben: so the question is whether <link> and <meta> are consistent with this
14:37:50 [RalphS]
Mark: I don't think it would be right to make a special case for this except by adding display:none
14:38:36 [RalphS]
Ben: so we agree here that <link> and <meta> are clickable but the HTML WG may decide to add display:none
14:39:13 [RalphS]
Steven: so the suggestion is that any element with href is clickable [in the primary method] when it is visible?
14:39:14 [RalphS]
Ben: yes
14:40:41 [RalphS]
PROPOSED: This Task Force concurs that href on any element that is visible makes that element clickable using the primary user agent mechanism but that <link> and <meta> may be display:none by default at the HTML WG's choice
14:41:03 [RalphS]
so RESOLVED
14:41:18 [RalphS]
Topic: RSS in RDF/A
14:41:32 [benadida]
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-in-xhtml-tf/2006Jan/0063.html
14:41:56 [benadida]
the bug is:
14:41:57 [benadida]
<ul id="#items"
14:41:57 [RalphS]
Ben: note Ian Davis' correction
14:41:59 [benadida]
should be
14:42:06 [benadida]
<ul id="items" about="#items">
14:43:11 [RalphS]
Ralph: please add the namespace declaration
14:43:37 [RalphS]
Ben: the primary question here is about the rdf:Seq
14:44:03 [MarkB_]

14:44:50 [RalphS]
(that link is on the -> http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/BestPractices/HTML/ HTML TF home page)
14:45:32 [RalphS]
-> http://www.xforms-wiki.com/bin/view/Main/LanguageRdfAExampleRSS LanguageRdfAExampleRSS
14:46:20 [RalphS]
Ben: I wrote 0063 without using any syntactic sugar; i.e. rel="ref:_1"
14:47:22 [RalphS]
... can we use rdf:li ?
14:47:43 [RalphS]
Mark: unless you use [XML] Schema, you don't get the html <li> semantics if you use rdf:li
14:48:30 [RalphS]
Ben: can we use rdf:li to avoid needing _1, _2, etc. Having to use XML Schema is fine.
14:48:51 [RalphS]
-> http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-syntax-grammar/#section-Syntax-list-elements 2.15 Container Membership Property Elements: rdf:li and rdf:_n
14:49:21 [RalphS]
Mark: alternatively, we could say that html:li has rdf:li semantics
14:51:29 [RalphS]
... hasn't rdf:Seq been replaced by lists?
14:51:51 [RalphS]
Ralph: rdf:Seq is not deprecated, but lists have important semantics that indicate that the list is complete
14:52:10 [RalphS]
Mark: rdf:Seq has semantics of saying _ordered_ lists
14:52:35 [RalphS]
... in your 0063 example you've used <ul> -- unordered list
14:52:56 [RalphS]
... we could use the HTML semantics to advantage; create rdf:Seq or rdf:Bag
14:53:33 [RalphS]
Ralph: not clear
14:54:05 [RalphS]
Mark: do we expect anything to make use of the ordered/unordered semantics?
14:54:16 [RalphS]
Ralph: I would think so, since HTML has those semantics
14:54:46 [RalphS]
Ben: I'm in favor of looking at ordered vs. unordered semantics
14:55:39 [RalphS]
Ralph: so an important question from the HTML point of view is whether authors using <ol> and <ul> intend to say "... and this is the complete list"?
14:55:56 [RalphS]
Steven: given the start attribute, I would not want to make a commitment to what authors intend
14:56:35 [Zakim]
-Steven
14:56:47 [RalphS]
ACTION: Ben write out a proposal for how OL and UL turn into rdf:Seq and rdf:Bag
14:57:02 [RalphS]
Mark: there's a new type list in XHTML 2; an <nl> -- Navigation List
14:57:34 [RalphS]
... so <ol> might be an rdf:Seq and every other type of list is rdf:Bag
14:58:02 [RalphS]
Ralph: perhaps <nl> is like rdf:Alt, since you choose one navigation path :)
14:58:15 [RalphS]
... but I don't think we really want to overload things that much
14:59:35 [RalphS]
-> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-in-xhtml-tf/2006Feb/0015.html
15:02:45 [RalphS]
Ralph: it's clear that Section 2 does not follow the TAG's instructions
15:02:57 [RalphS]
... what is less clear is whether the ambiguity is critical
15:03:26 [RalphS]
... how about "do not follow" rather than "incorrect"
15:03:42 [RalphS]
Mark: I don't mind "incorrect" if they really don't follow the TAG's instructions
15:04:55 [RalphS]
Ralph: propose to add the sentence "pecifically, the
15:04:55 [RalphS]
examples in this section use the same URI to refer to both a Person
15:04:55 [RalphS]
(or a group of people) and a document.
15:04:56 [RalphS]
"
15:04:59 [RalphS]
Ben: OK with me
15:05:02 [RalphS]
Mark: OK with me
15:05:22 [RalphS]
... there are two levels at which the URI confusion is happening; one at the foaf level and the other at the URI level
15:06:42 [RalphS]
Ralph: it feels a mistake to me to omit the subject of the triples, particularly in section 2.2.3
15:07:51 [RalphS]
... as this is explicitly the nature of this URI debate
15:08:03 [RalphS]
... let's not sweep this under the rug as we do know what the current RDF/A syntax spec says
15:08:13 [RalphS]
Mark: that's fine with me
15:09:03 [RalphS]
Ralph: we can note that there is a philosophical debate going on but let's not dodge that; the Primer should show what the Syntax spec says must be generated
15:10:25 [RalphS]
RESOLVED: we agree that the rest of the triple can be added before publication
