14:45:25 <AlexPassant> yes LeeF 
14:45:39 <kasei> good catch. should also have agreement on the iri (?)
14:45:39 <AxelPolleres> Alex: can we get the namespace http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/service-description# online before FPWD?

14:48:11 <sandro> www.w3.org/ns/sparql-service#
14:48:48 <sandro> yeah, I didn;'t mean to leave out "sparql"
14:49:35 <AxelPolleres> andyS: maybe better to not block the namespace now, since it gives it more weight, we might not want that, unless we are sure about the namespace.
14:49:46 <sandro> There MUST be a document at the namespace URI if the namespace is used in a TR.    
14:50:14 <sandro> yes, it can say "subject to change, etc"
14:50:24 <AxelPolleres> sandro: pubrules prsecribe that there has to be a document at any namespace mentioned.
14:50:27 <sandro> yes
14:50:54 <sandro> and note in the Spec where the NS is mentions.

14:51:04 <LeeF> sparql-service# vs. sparql-service-description#
14:51:08 <SteveH> it's a little confusing otherwise
14:51:13 <AxelPolleres> greg: prefer service description.
14:51:26 <sandro> "description" seems redundant to me, but I'm new.
14:51:34 <AxelPolleres> +1 to include description
14:51:37 <ericP> +1 to apathy
14:51:45 <SteveH> +0 to apathy
14:52:04 <AxelPolleres> Lee: www.w3.org/ns/sparql-service-description# be it
14:52:07 <LeeF> ACTION: Eric and Lee to request .../ns/sparql-service-description# and put a "subject to change" doc there
14:52:07 <trackbot> Created ACTION-126 - And Lee to request .../ns/sparql-service-description# and put a "subject to change" doc there [on Eric Prud'hommeaux - due 2009-10-27].
14:52:27 <AxelPolleres> eric: HTML for now there.
14:52:49 <AxelPolleres> ... anybody objecting to conneg there?
14:53:01 <sandro> html for now, RDFa and/or conneg later
14:53:06 <kasei> LeeF, will you change that ns in the doc when you are making changes today, or should I?
14:53:07 <AxelPolleres> sandro: we can do RDFa later on
14:53:08 <AndyS> if RDFa, then RDF as well please.  
14:53:16 <LeeF> ACTION: Lee to update NS in serv. description document
14:53:16 <trackbot> Created ACTION-127 - Update NS in serv. description document [on Lee Feigenbaum - due 2009-10-27].
14:53:17 <sandro> plus 6 grddl transforms.  :-)
14:53:32 <kasei> Zakim, mute me
14:53:32 <Zakim> kasei should now be muted
14:53:37 <AxelPolleres> topic: entailment document
14:53:42 <AndyS> OK if server side ;-)
14:53:52 <AxelPolleres> birte: all in CVS, looks alright for me.
14:54:03 <AxelPolleres> ... not sure how it looks for everyone.
14:54:06 <LeeF> to set access go to http://URI/URI/,access
14:54:23 <AxelPolleres> eric: you should be able to set .access
14:54:29 <bglimm> http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/docs/entailment/xmlspec.xml
14:55:26 <sandro> I see it in CVS.
14:55:29 <AxelPolleres> birte: might be a commit issue.
14:55:41 <AxelPolleres> eric: let's pick that up after the call on irc.
14:56:02 <AndyS> I see it in CVS.  last update Oct 20 15:42
14:56:11 <AxelPolleres> lee: did you address all the issues we talked about?
14:56:50 <AxelPolleres> birte: yes, but might need more reviewers, removed entailment regimes we haven't really worked on, just left RDF/RDFS
14:57:03 <AxelPolleres> lee: should be ok.
14:57:07 <sandro> 7 years bad luck
14:57:32 <AxelPolleres> topic: overall fpwd issues
14:58:20 <AxelPolleres> eric: we will turn around a lot  at grammar, how many docs have grammar in them?
14:58:43 <sandro> weird.   the mirrors say http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/docs/entailment doesn't exist, but when I did a an update -d on 2009/sparql it was created for me, with contents.
14:58:46 <LeeF> Regrets: IvanH, Orri
14:58:53 <bglimm> Zakim, mute me
14:58:53 <Zakim> bglimm should now be muted
14:59:12 <AxelPolleres> andy/eric discussing grammar...
15:00:10 <AxelPolleres> Andy: query isn't xmlspec'ed yet. is in HMTL, should be ok.
15:00:22 <AxelPolleres> ... more important things than styling so far.
15:01:05 <SteveH> +1 to aggregates
15:01:10 <AndyS> +1
15:01:12 <AxelPolleres> Lee: 60mins up, would like to continue shortly about the aggregate issues.
15:01:15 <AxelPolleres> +1
15:01:31 <AxelPolleres> andy: we may not agree, but let's start the issues.
15:01:50 <SteveH> not really , no
15:01:50 <AxelPolleres> Lee: almost all include we should include count.
15:01:52 <Zakim> -Sandro
15:02:01 <AxelPolleres> ... do we have a starting point for that?
15:02:24 <AxelPolleres> Andy: shall we start with the relational one?
15:02:25 <AndyS> COUNT, MIN, MAX, SUM
15:02:33 <LukeWM> AVG?
15:02:56 <LeeF> GROUP_CONCAT
15:03:09 <LeeF> SAMPLE
15:03:09 <AxelPolleres> basically any XPATH/XQuery funct that accepts sequences could be allowed?
15:03:10 <AndyS> StsveH - can you define it in email?  Still hazy on details (prob happy with it)
15:03:30 <pgearon> first?
15:03:33 <SteveH> AndyS, sure
15:03:34 <AndyS> XP/XQ has issues in the details
15:03:37 <AxelPolleres> e.g. string-join
15:03:41 <AndyS> SteveH, ta
15:03:46 <LeeF> STDDEV
15:04:01 <AxelPolleres> lee:  statistics, e.g. STDDEV 
15:04:17 <ericP> my pref would have been COUNT, MIN, MAX, SUM, AVG, but i think a system that has debugging from the start is a very good developer draw
15:04:28 <ericP> so also like SAMPLE
15:04:29 <pgearon> we'd be a laughing stock if we didn't include COUNT
15:04:30 <LukeWM> I'd like AVG to be called something different.
15:04:48 <AxelPolleres> COUNT  seems to be agreed.
15:05:13 <pgearon> +1 for MIN/MAX (mixed types aside)
15:05:41 <AxelPolleres> axel: MIN/MAX don't add expressivity, but  very useful
15:06:04 <AxelPolleres> andyS: actually they do add: usable in GROUP BY
15:06:42 <AxelPolleres> q+
15:07:21 <LeeF> ack AxelPolleres
15:07:34 <AxelPolleres> SUM also sounds like it has support
15:07:49 <AndyS> q+
15:07:52 <AxelPolleres> AVG might need to be named different.
15:07:53 <chimezie> q+ consensus on general, expected behavior of aggregate functions
15:08:00 <LeeF> ack AndyS
15:08:04 <chimezie> q+
15:08:07 <LeeF> ack consensus
15:08:07 <Zakim> consensus, you wanted to comment on general, expected behavior of aggregate functions
15:08:17 <AxelPolleres> Lee: different naming was suggested by Luke
15:08:19 <LeeF> q+ chimezie to discuss  consensus on general, expected behavior of aggregate functions
15:08:27 <AxelPolleres> Luke: better call it "mean"
15:08:43 <SteveH> can have AVG as an alias for MEAN
15:08:59 <SteveH> a la isURI and isIRI
15:09:01 <AxelPolleres> Lee: AVG would assume same behaviour as in SQL
15:09:16 <pgearon> MEAN implies a numeric operation, while people might try to apply AVG to other things... but what's the average of "foo" and "bar"? :-)
15:09:44 <kasei> pgearon, probably depends on the current text encoding :)
15:09:46 <AxelPolleres> Lee: would lean towards AVG
15:10:04 <pgearon> +1 for aggregates
15:10:18 <AxelPolleres> either both SUM and AVG or no arithmetic at all
15:10:32 <pgearon> I mean, for and "average" aggregate
15:10:50 <LeeF> ISSUE: Should the average/arithmetic mean aggregate be called AVG, MEAN, both, or something else?
15:10:50 <trackbot> Created ISSUE-50 - Should the average/arithmetic mean aggregate be called AVG, MEAN, both, or something else? ; please complete additional details at http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/track/issues/50/edit .
15:11:27 <LukeWM> no
15:11:33 <kasei> 0
15:11:35 <SteveH> STDDEV is quite useful
15:11:41 <AxelPolleres> Lee: Excel has a core set that includes SDTDEV, does anybody think we should include that?
15:12:12 <AxelPolleres> ... extensibility should enable including these.
15:12:40 <AxelPolleres> Lee: GROUPCONCAT very much like string-join
15:12:53 <AxelPolleres> ... we use it all the time.
15:13:02 <AndyS> Name is horrible!
15:13:09 <kasei> is the "GROUP" in that just to distinguish it as an aggregate function?
15:13:22 <SteveH> kasei, yes
15:13:26 <AxelPolleres> ... no strong feeling whether it should belong to thee core.
15:13:29 <SteveH> the name is horrible, yes
15:13:46 <KjetilK> +1
15:13:48 <SteveH> +1
15:13:55 <AndyS> 0
15:14:02 <LeeF> ack chimezie
15:14:02 <Zakim> chimezie, you wanted to discuss  consensus on general, expected behavior of aggregate functions
15:14:02 <AxelPolleres> ... I am not wedded to the name "GROUPCONCAT", aside that would we want to include it?
15:14:10 <kasei> AndyS, seems tricky without the ability to escape the underlying values first
15:14:17 <SteveH> defn, from mysql, FWIW: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/group-by-functions.html#function_group-concat
15:14:34 <AndyS> escaping?
15:14:40 <kasei> for csv
15:14:40 <AxelPolleres> chime: shouldn't we rather think of criteria of what a well-behaved function should look like?
15:14:44 <AndyS> StevbeH - does that escape sep?
15:14:59 <AxelPolleres> ... than discussing the single aggregates?
15:15:05 <SteveH> AndyS, no
15:15:12 <SteveH> not in mysql anyway
15:15:18 <AndyS> NP - add a fucntion call.
15:15:21 <SteveH> yup
15:15:27 <AndyS> q+
15:15:36 <AxelPolleres> Lee: we aren't even sure yet whether we want aggregates to define single return values.
15:15:38 <LeeF> ack AndyS
15:16:02 <AxelPolleres> AndyS: I already have a definition which ties it to a single value.
15:16:33 <Zakim> -chimezie
15:16:53 <AxelPolleres> Lee: will the issues we have discussed today go into the FPWD?
15:16:57 <AndyS> -99 to definition.
15:17:26 <AxelPolleres> Steve: already a list of candidates there, which we might extend, no definition at this point.
15:17:41 <AxelPolleres> Lee: let's continue the list ...
15:17:47 <AxelPolleres> ... SAMPLE.
15:17:48 <AndyS> q+
15:17:56 <SteveH> SAMPLE is neccesary if we don't allow aggregate values to be projected, which had support previously
15:18:18 <AxelPolleres> q+ worried about non-determinism (as usual).
15:18:20 <AndyS> ack me
15:18:23 <LeeF> ack AndyS
15:18:46 <AndyS> ah - "non aggregated variables" ??
15:18:53 <pgearon> what about just using FIRST?
15:18:58 <AxelPolleres> Lee: axel, yes it is nondeterministic, but it is very explcicitly non-deterministic.
15:19:09 <pgearon> +q
15:19:15 <AndyS> A change to design but NP.
15:19:17 <LeeF> ack pgearon
15:19:35 <AndyS> q+
15:19:54 <AxelPolleres> Paul: FIRST is fine in conncection with order by. 
15:20:03 <SteveH> q+
15:20:06 <LeeF> ack AndyS
15:20:14 <AxelPolleres> ... without order by SAMPLE is just the same as FIRST.
15:20:25 <SteveH> q-
15:21:08 <AxelPolleres> Andy: seems there are different assumptions here, don't see how you can sort the variabes coming out of a group by.
15:21:21 <SteveH> in SQL yu can do AGGREGATE (?x ORDER BY ...)
15:21:30 <AndyS> MIN or MAX nearly= FIRST?
15:21:31 <AxelPolleres> paul: honestly, it's a while since I chekced that in SQL
15:22:40 <SteveH> action?
15:22:57 <LeeF> PROPOSED: To include aggregates for COUNT, MIN, MAX, SUM, AVG and discuss others down the road
15:23:04 <SteveH> seconded
15:23:15 <bglimm> +1
15:23:17 <AndyS> +1
15:23:18 <pgearon> +1
15:23:29 <LeeF> RESOLVED: To include aggregates for COUNT, MIN, MAX, SUM, AVG and discuss others down the road, no abstentions or objections

15:24:03 <AxelPolleres> +0.95 (guess we can get around the involved issues, so fair enough)
15:24:30 <AxelPolleres> Lee: let's close... some more hint for those at ISWC
15:25:09 <AxelPolleres> ... we have a panel at ISWC, Wendesday, Oct 28, 10:30
15:25:34 <AxelPolleres> AndyS: When  will the agenda go out for F2F, was due.
15:25:49 <AxelPolleres> LeeF: aggregate issues, for sure.
15:25:58 <AxelPolleres> ... stil soliciting issues.
