Mark: My implementation is coming on nicely
15:30:32 [Steven]
... the RDFa part needs to be modularised still

15:31:18 [Steven]

Topic: XHTML1.1 Namespace for rels
15:46:30 [Steven]
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-in-xhtml-tf/2007Sep/0216
15:46:52 [Steven]
Ben: There is a problem that the XHTML namespace doesn't end with a hash or slash
15:48:20 [Steven]
Mark: In the section on unprefixed values, I say that it uses the XHTML namespace with a hash on the end
15:48:42 [Steven]
... but we should move away from the idea that these are namespaces
15:49:13 [Steven]
... so we are not talking about changing the XHTML namespace, but defining the prefix
15:49:57 [Steven]
... but there is a problem with overlap with the role attribute
15:50:22 [Steven]
... they are so close, they ought to use the same system
15:50:45 [Steven]
Shane: There can't be multiple default prefixes for CURIES
15:51:23 [Steven]
Ben: But rel can have a magic property using reserved words
15:52:28 [Steven]
Steven: I would be happy if we could avoid special rules and magic
15:53:15 [Steven]
Ben: I think it is a special case because of backwards compatibility
15:53:30 [Steven]
... rel="foobar" is not even allowed
15:53:41 [Steven]
Mark: It is if you have a @profile
15:54:01 [Steven]
... so there are docs with a profile, with non-HTML rels
15:54:07 [Steven]
... and quite valid therefore
15:54:55 [Steven]
Ben: So the specific issue
15:55:19 [Steven]
... we do need a default prefix URL, alsoi that ends in a hash or slash
15:55:52 [Steven]
Steven: Why does it matter?
15:56:09 [Steven]
Mark: Because of round-tripping, which strictly RDF doesn't support
15:56:33 [Steven]
... but is a sort of standard practice
15:56:56 [Steven]
.. in one case we would have the concept of xhtmlnext, as opposed to xhtml:next
15:57:12 [Steven]
... it is only convention
15:57:20 [Steven]
s/.. in/... in/
15:59:44 [Steven]
Ralph: I like the idea of Shane's to use Apache redirecting to redirect xhtmlnext to something else
16:00:34 [Steven]
Mark: WHy do we care; we can add a hash without a problem
16:00:46 [Steven]
s/WH/Wh/
16:01:28 [Steven]
Mark: We can add the relations to their own subnamespace
16:01:37 [Steven]
... otherwise just straght to the XHTML namespace
16:02:08 [Steven]
s/strag/straig/
16:02:13 [benadida]
example http://creativecommons.org/ns#
16:02:24 [Steven]
Ben: THat is the CC namesapce
16:02:28 [RalphS]
Shane: XHTML already has things under xhtml/ so I would expect objections to the simple concatenation xhtmlnext
16:02:30 [Steven]
s/TH/Th/
16:03:00 [benadida]
/1999/xhtml/ns#
16:03:50 [Steven]
Mark: In the Modularization schemas we have 1999/xhtml/datatypes
16:04:03 [benadida]
/1999/xhtml/vocab#
16:04:11 [benadida]
/1999/xhtml/?#
16:04:12 [Steven]
... so we could have 1999/xhtml/vocab# or something
16:04:41 [Steven]
Ben: I like the word vocab as being general
16:04:53 [Steven]
... anyone object?
16:05:16 [Steven]
SHane: Mostly harmless
16:05:21 [Steven]
s/SH/Sh/
16:07:00 [benadida]
PROPOSE that we use 1999/xhtml/vocab# as the prefix for next, prev, etc...
16:07:31 [Steven]
Ben: Deciding about nofollow is another issue
16:07:52 [Steven]
Ralph: Second
16:07:58 [Steven]
Ben: Opposed?
16:08:50 [Steven]
Mark: We can't speak for the whole XHTML2 WG, but I think it is the best option
16:08:58 [Steven]
Mark: +1 to it
16:09:20 [Steven]
RESOLUTION: that we use 1999/xhtml/vocab# as the prefix for next, prev, etc..
16:09:56 [ShaneM]
New draft of rdfa-syntax is at http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/2007/ED-rdfa-syntax-20070927/
16:10:19 [Steven]
Ben: This doesn't solve the issue of whether we should special-case the the legacy rels
16:10:26 [Steven]
... we'll treat that another week
