08:12:51 [IanJ]
TBL: We should acknowledge that we shoud look back, but we should NOT define spec writing as descriptive. Spec writing is prescriptive. If people don't follow the protcol in the future, we have the right to go after them and say "Excuse me, you joined the club and are expected to follow the rules."

08:25:50 [IanJ]

??? university of toronto: I agree with you, josh, there are many places when constraint can be put in
09:37:57 [ivan]
templates, accessibilit elsewhere, there is a huge strength in the cms way
09:37:57 [ivan]
... they have a kind of power
09:37:58 [ori]
I think the main issue is does the template designed with standards in mind

(sorry, scribe lost it at some point:-(
09:40:19 [ivan]

09:41:25 [ivan]
... accessibility is one area where content management is looking at carefully
09:41:34 [ivan]
... other areas are also talked about like mobile where more attention would improve
09:41:55 [ivan]
... we have to take a broader view of what the web is, and this is an aread where w3c can look at
09:42:11 [IanJ]
Larry: expanding view of web into the entire ecosystem of creating content would be appropriate for w3c
09:43:01 [ivan]
phil archer: we talked about accessiblity, i wonder what kind of cms sytems could be added that would add microformat, rdfa, etc?
09:43:18 [ivan]
larry: there is a real opportunity there

jeremy carroll: one of the problems Kai seems to have is that the content that is generated is not accessible or not even good html but browsers show it
09:46:23 [ivan]
... the cms should adapt stricter rules on what they are doing
09:46:49 [ivan]
... they should send error message to the browsers instead of doing it and they should send error messages instead
09:47:07 [ivan]
kai: but we should proactively clean it up things
09:47:21 [ivan]
jeremy: while cleaning up the crap we should also stop producing
09:47:43 [ivan]
kai: the system managers would have to be convinced to be able to it...
09:48:01 [ivan]
josh: there has to be a greater awareness
09:48:04 [ori]
CMS does not produce code by itself, it takes the template and the content created by the content editor. Most content editors know nothing about HTML and actually write the code using an editor provided by the CMS

...if you want to share it
13:55:40 [Karen]
...I supplied a URL to id the end point
13:55:47 [Karen]

13:55:55 [Karen]
...now use conventions
13:56:16 [Karen]
...use data structures, relationship names, and identifiers that others know
13:56:24 [Karen]

Thomas: that topic is very close to all the device API discussion and is in scope for the Workshop in december
15:59:10 [amy]
Matt: this is why we brought in two chairs. one from providers, one from browsers

"IETF GeoPriv Working Group

DanA: Dan Appelquist, Vodaphone. the reason we put forward someone to chair the group, this is one of the most important classes of API
16:00:56 [amy]
... esp if you look at the things coming out on Google, App Store. There's clearly a need in the market for this and it's just as clear as we need to do it in a secure way
16:01:27 [amy]
Thomas: there is coordination between groups
16:01:47 [amy]
Steven: why you should have a website. we heard about Metcalf's law: the value of the network square to the number of nodes
16:02:02 [amy]
.... if you do the math, if you cut network in half, halves the value
16:02:45 [amy]
... important we have one Web. Flickr, etc. there's a danger. by putting a lot of work into a site you commit yourself to it. There's no way of moving your data from one Web 2.0 site to another

... how do you know which to use, what if a better one comes along. or re: social network, you're all probably like me getting bombarded w/ requests to be a friend or work associate
16:03:35 [raman]
is there truly only one WWW? This morning I heard someone dismiss things like Intranets and other things as not part of the Web
16:03:38 [amy]
... or geneology sites. what if the site dies? if it shuts down you lose your date
16:03:53 [amy]
... Google account closed, lost Orkut, lost 4 years of mail
16:04:08 [amy]
... this partitions the web into sub webs and reduces the value of the web
16:04:20 [raman]

16:04:22 [amy]
this is why you should have your own site. aggregators could come and find info
16:04:33 [raman]
All google services let you download your data -- we call it "take your data with you when you can"
16:04:39 [amy]
... what do we need? machine readable data. you need CSS for meaning. you need to add machine readable data
16:04:49 [raman]
s/you can/you want/
16:05:02 [amy]
... when an aggregator comes to a web site it can see what the data represents
16:05:16 [DanC_lap]
DanC_lap has joined #tp
16:05:22 [amy]
... you could ask to find a place on a map, add data by combing information
16:05:44 [amy]
... rather than putting all your data on someone else's site, put it on yours w/ explicit semantics
16:05:50 [amy]
Rotan: questions?
16:05:59 [amy]
?: what if your own site fails?
16:06:03 [amy]
Rotan: google cache
16:06:13 [amy]
Steven: I'm assuming you have a back up of your data
16:06:29 [amy]
?: if your website fails, all you need is domain name

-> http://homepages.cwi.nl/~steven/vandf/2008.03-website.html "Why you should have a website: it's the law!" [Steven Pemberton]
16:06:48 [Kangchan]
think that data interoperability is really important to the end users
16:06:56 [amy]
?: i mean focusing on your own website. so your data is always accessible. so of course I completely agree
16:07:14 [amy]
??: you've said several times moving your data to your own site, how does one do that?
16:07:20 [amy]
Steven: I said that's one of the problems

Rotan: one more question from Doug. All slides and presentations will be up as part of the minutes, presenters have incuded links etc
16:07:45 [IanJ]
Hi participants: please send your links to w3t-comm if you have not done so already. Thanks!
16:08:10 [amy]
Doug: so the sites are not merely storage sites but authoring tools. certainly there's value in an authoring tool that lets you move info
16:08:13 [raman]
The key bit here is data portability: http://www.google.com/search?q=data+portability&num=25

Time tomorrow Thursday 2-2:30pm, Riviera. it seems that there are some groups that might like to make use of the time

16:10:15 [amy]

All the Lightning Talks are on my laptop, and I will be transferring the files to the W3C system very soon.
16:11:53 [amy]
... I really enjoyed the meeting today. I thought the moderators and panelists did a great job. My sense is that though we have feelings on where the web would go, we all can come together to agree that we want one web, not a semantic web, not an XML web - no walled gardens. I hope we're alll a bit more motivated, there's a way we can find a roadmap, peaceful friendly co-existence
