I'm really afraid of this.... 16:32:24 Can you type that in? 16:32:32 PROPOSAL: call http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/directGraph/ default mapping in both title and URI (but keep the possibility to talk about a direct mapping there) 16:32:37 mhausenblas: lets change to default mapping, and if there is a discussion on direct vs default, having it in the other doc 16:32:44 +1 16:32:49 +1 16:32:52 +1 16:32:56 +1 16:32:56 +1 16:32:58 +1 16:33:01 +1 16:33:02 +1 16:33:04 abstain. 16:33:08 -1 16:33:11 -¾ 16:33:19 abstain 16:34:17 mhausenblas: I understand eric's objection, but I don't understand alex's objection 16:34:34 http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/defaultMapping 16:34:45 "A Default Mapping of Relational Data to RDF" 16:35:15 +1 to juansequeda 16:36:34 exactly. 16:36:49 I don't see it as just about the name. 16:37:05 q+ 16:37:19 betehess 16:37:37 ack hhalpin 16:38:52 hhalpin is proposing what mhausenblas already proposed 16:39:17 macted: default is a behaviour and not a definition 16:39:24 ... the default behavior can change 16:39:59 mhausenblas: we should open an issue and let the semantics sub group come up with the direct mapping definition 16:40:17 my understanding: Direct Mapping is a simple wrapper for RDB in RDF. I was expecting the WG to discuss about which features would be interesting to have in a Direct Mapping, as a definition. The Default Mapping is somehow defined in terms of r2rml. 16:41:20 ACTION: Hausenblas to create an issue for the default vs. direct mapping 16:41:21 Created ACTION-77 - Create an issue for the default vs. direct mapping [on Michael Hausenblas - due 2010-11-02]. 16:42:25 RESOLUTION: call http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/directGraph/ default mapping in both title and URI (but keep the possibility to talk about a direct mapping there) 16:43:25 q+ to answer about the publication details 16:43:35 hhalpin talking about publication details 16:43:52 its 4 days to be courteous :) 16:44:02 Michael: we note the three objections (Eric, Alexandre and Ted) regarding the resolution 16:44:03 so this is already not very courteous 16:44:13 but I think the Systems Team understands :) 16:44:28 betehess is talking about publication details 16:44:46 http://www.w3.org/2002/01/tr-automation/techs.rdf 16:45:10 I thought the short-name agreement was /TR/r2rml 16:46:19 RRSAgent, draft minutes 16:46:19 I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2010/10/26-rdb2rdf-minutes.html mhausenblas 16:46:21 the Webmaster needs: the group(s) this spec belongs to. Please see: http://www.w3.org/2002/01/tr-automation/techs.rdf 16:46:33 q+ 16:46:39 the Webmaster also needs a short description 16:47:06 ack hhalpin 16:47:27 q- 16:48:08 hhalpin: can eric actually change the uri and agrees? 16:48:08 q+ 16:48:34 q+ to speak about dependencies 16:48:41 cygri: the R2RML uses default mapping everything. the only place that direct mapping is used is in the title of the doc and the uri 16:48:53 ack betehess 16:48:53 betehess, you wanted to speak about dependencies 16:48:59 mhausenblas: question that hhalpin has is if eric has the time and willing to do that 16:50:27 Could we just copy an "English" version of Eric's document into the R2RML? Is that necessary 16:51:05 betehess: there might be the case that we will have to remove the reference to the Direct Mapping document. I 16:51:16 .. I'm not sure but this can be the case 16:51:29 cygri: is this for normative or informative reference? 16:51:39 ... does it make a difference? 16:51:46 betehess: I'm not sure. I need to ask 16:55:17 I still do not think it is that incomprehensible without the default-mapping doc! 16:56:09 http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/r2rml/Overview.html 16:56:11 macted: we have had external views stating that they don't understand R2RML doc without the default mapping 16:57:10 -soeren 16:57:40 will people understand r2rml FPWD without the direct mapping text? 16:57:51 Have we really checked its readability with a real database person (as opposed to logicians), who is really a target audience? 16:58:03 A related specification is A Direct Mapping of Relational Data to RDF [DIRECT]. It defines a fixed “default mapping”. In the default mapping of a database, The structure of the resulting RDF graph directly reflects the structure of the database, the target RDF vocabulary directly reflects the names of database schema elements, and neither structure nor target vocabulary can be changed. With R2RML on the other hand, a mapping author can define high 16:58:03 customized views over the relational data. 16:58:52 replace first two sentces with: “This WG will define a fixed “default mapping” from a database to RDF.” 16:59:05 People in some Oracle groups understand the R2RML doc perfectly and thinks its too easy! 16:59:33 "too easy" is not a valid objection to anything. 16:59:43 -Alexandre 17:00:10 PROPOSAL: replace the second paragraph, first two sentences of http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/r2rml/ “This WG will define a fixed “default mapping” from a database to RDF" and create and editorial note re discussion 17:00:13 cygri and mhausenblas are talking about who to rephrase the default mapping section of the intro 17:00:32 +1 17:00:40 This new Proposal will make the previous proposal obsolete 17:00:43 +1 17:00:48 +1 17:00:52 +1 17:00:57 +1 17:01:00 abstain 17:01:06 +1 17:01:08 +1 17:01:09 +1 17:01:23 +1 17:01:27 i don't know who will understand this doc 17:01:51 eric - is that an objection or an abstain? 17:02:00 abstain 17:02:04 I mean, I'm hoping we can link these two documents up. 17:02:15 but if we can't do it in the FPWD we can do it when we agree things are baked. 17:02:26 RESOLUTION: replace the second paragraph, first two sentences of http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/r2rml/ “This WG will define a fixed “default mapping” from a database to RDF" and create and editorial note re discussion 17:02:45 no objections to this proposal.
