17:29:04 [DanC]
point being: that extensibility with a framework such as CDF makes sense, but extensibility in general does not. [?]
17:29:05 [timbl]
s/it/XML extensbility: Possible only with a framework providing some form of semantics

agendum 3. "issue namespaceState-48" taken up [from DanC]
17:30:55 [ht]
http://www.w3.org/1999/10/nsuri is in an odd state
17:31:03 [DanC]
-> http://www.w3.org/2005/07/13-nsuri URIs for W3C Namespaces 1.36 2006/01/20
17:31:12 [ht]
it says "A new version of this document is available. "
17:38:32 [DanC]
TBL: one comment was that "Namespace Changes over Time" doesn't make sense
17:39:16 [ht]
http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/doc/namespaceState.html
17:39:27 [noah]
From the finding: "Colloquially, we often speak of “adding a name” to a namespace. Here we prefer to speak of “defining a name” or otherwise licensing the interpretation of a name."
17:39:33 [Norm]
Precisely.
17:41:01 [DanC]
NM: section 4 could cite the finding more locally
17:41:51 [DanC]
... section 4 i.e. http://www.w3.org/2005/07/13-nsuri#Policy
17:45:12 [noah]
Suggestion (rough not exact): a) leave title of section 4 b) In that section, say something like "The TAG finding 'The Disposition of Names in an XML Namespace' explains how the use of a particular namespace may evolve over time. At the W3C, it is important for a group to state clearly its expectations for how namespaces it controls will..."
17:45:29 [noah]
...and the continue with the text already in the doc, edited if necessary.
17:46:46 [DanC]
ACTION TBL: accepted on 8 Mar 2005, provide a draft of new namespace policy doc (http://www.w3.org/1999/10/nsuri). in progress. tbl would like to confirm with Ian that there's nothing pending on Ian's side [CONTINUES]
17:48:27 [noah]
In that section, say something like "The TAG finding 'The Disposition of Names in an XML Namespace' explains how the use of a particular namespace may evolve over time. At the W3C, it is important for a group to state clearly its expectations for how use of the namespaces it controls will..."
17:48:29 [ht]
zakim, who is making noise?
17:48:40 [Zakim]
ht, listening for 10 seconds I heard sound from the following: noah (8%), Ht (14%)
17:49:25 [noah]
Dan if you commit this, you'll need to create a hyperlink for the TAG finding.

Hi Ian
17:52:18 [Ian]
I was pinged on the topic of nsuri...
17:52:33 [Ian]
I heard:
17:52:36 [Vincent]
Dan is updating the nsuri document to add a reference to the TAG finding in section 4.
17:52:37 [Ian]
1) TAG ok with http://www.w3.org/2005/07/13-nsuri
17:52:40 [Ian]
2) Add a ref
17:52:42 [Ian]
+1 to adding ref.
17:52:55 [Ian]
The document has already been announced as "en vigeur" to the chairs.

17:54:05 [Ian]
Bjoern had expressed some concerns.
17:54:11 [Ian]
Would you like to see them?
17:54:52 [timbl]
Ian, would you like to join the call for a bit?
17:54:55 [DanC]
Ian, wanna dial in? or not bother?
17:55:10 [Ian]
Sure.
17:55:15 [Ian]
zakim, what's the code?
17:55:15 [Zakim]
the conference code is 0824 (tel:+1.617.761.6200), Ian
17:55:19 [DanC]
http://www.w3.org/1999/10/nsuri v 1.63 2006/04/25 17:54:40 is obsolete
17:55:33 [Zakim]
+Ian
17:56:37 [noah]
Responding to Dan's request that I hatch yet a bit more text:
17:56:41 [noah]
The draft currently says:
17:56:42 [noah]
Groups SHOULD document those expectations in [or clearly linked from] the Namespace Document.
17:57:09 [Ian]
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/2006Feb/0000.html
17:57:31 [noah]
How about putting after that: "Draft TAG Finding Associating Resources with Namespaces provides additional guidance on the creation of such namespace documents."
17:57:51 [DanC]
-> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/2006Feb/0000.html Comments on URIs for W3C Namespaces Bjoern Hoehrmann 01 Feb 2006
17:59:04 [DanC]
"Specifications that define namespaces SHOULD explicitly state their policy with respect to changes in the names defined in that namespace."
18:00:42 [DanC]
HT: not sure about "this specification" indexical in the examples..
18:02:14 [ht]
"The definitions of names in this namespace will not change from those given in the June 13 2007 version of the Foonly spec [ref. dated URI]"
18:02:25 [Ian]
q+
18:02:35 [DanC]
yes, that's an improvement to example 1, HT
18:02:49 [Vincent]
ack Ian
18:03:14 [ht]
... "Subsequent versions of thte Foonly spec which make any substantive changes will do so in a new namespace"
18:03:33 [Zakim]
-Ian
18:04:47 [timbl]
For example, the namespace document could contain text along the following lines.

PROPOSED: that http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/doc/namespaceState.html and http://www.w3.org/2005/07/13-nsuri 1.54 address namespaceState-48

18:22:10 [DanC]
(I think that's a high bar; I raraly meet it myself.)
18:22:15 [noah]
+1 to Tim's comment.
18:24:14 [DanC]

Hi Norm, DanC,
19:07:37 [Ian]
Does this look ok for Chairs:
19:07:44 [Ian]
Dear Chairs,
19:07:44 [Ian]
Today the TAG reviewed and made some editorial clarifications to
19:07:44 [Ian]
"URIs for W3C Namespaces" [1], which became effective 15 March
19:07:44 [Ian]
2006 [2]. A reference to the TAG finding "Associating Resources
19:07:44 [Ian]
with Namespaces" [3] was also added. I do not believe the changes
19:07:45 [Ian]
will have any impact on the publications process.
19:07:47 [Ian]
I have attached a document that highlights differences from the
19:07:49 [Ian]
version announced on 15 March.
