15:08:20 <tinkster> Ivan: W3C will hopefully allow us to use profile URIs like the ones I'm posting.
15:08:30 <manu1> PROPOSAL: The two default profile URLs should be http://www.w3.org/profile/rdfa-1.1 and http://www.w3.org/profile/html-rdfa-1.1

15:09:24 <manu1> ACTION: Ivan to setup the default RDFa profile URLs with the systems team
15:09:24 <trackbot> Created ACTION-67 - Setup the default RDFa profile URLs with the systems team [on Ivan Herman - due 2011-02-24].

15:09:42 <Zakim> ok, Steven_; the call is being made
15:09:43 <Zakim> +Steven
15:09:57 <tinkster> Steven_: do we need the "1.1" in the URI?
15:12:15 <tinkster> manu: we need a version number in case we want to remove terms/prefixes in future versions.
15:13:27 <tinkster> ... and creating an "rdfa-latest" profile would create incompatibilities in documents when it changes.
15:14:19 <tinkster> Ivan: for most people, who will not express the profile explicitly, this breakage will happen anyway as parsers will start using a new profile by default.
15:15:10 <tinkster> Steven: just wanted to make sure this had been thought through.
15:15:21 <tinkster> manu: personally I want the version number in there.
15:15:22 <manu1> Topic: Hypertext Coordination Group Participation
15:16:37 <tinkster> manu: we'd like to participate in the co-ordination group.
15:17:59 <tinkster> (people discuss Peter Mika's RDFa usage data)
15:18:32 <tinkster> manu: huge sample size; lots of non-trivial uses of RDFa.
15:18:58 <tinkster> ... at least 430,000,000 pages using RDFa.

15:23:58 <tinkster> manu: any issues we've missed?
15:24:29 <tinkster> Toby: I've not yet provided responses for mine (draft for one, no draft for the other yet)
15:24:33 <ivan> ISSUE-70?

15:24:33 <trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2010/02/rdfa/track/issues/70
15:24:47 <tinkster> ShaneM(?): we've not discussed issue 70 yet.
15:25:01 <tinkster> manu: mostly seems to be editorial/won't fix.
15:25:20 <manu1> Topic: ISSUE-70: RDFa Core 1.1 LC comments about versioning from Jeni Tennison
15:26:03 <manu1> scribenick: manu
15:26:17 <manu1> Ivan: I think we discussed some of this before
15:26:54 <manu1> Ivan: I think what she's asking for is that processors should be able to recognize whether or not they're recognizing a 1.0 vs. 1.1 document.
15:26:55 <webr3> q+
15:27:01 <manu1> ack [IPcaller]
15:28:04 <manu1> Nathan: As far as I can tell, I think she's saying that if she uses the same processor for a RDFa 1.0 vs 1.1 document there's no way for her to tell the difference between the two?
15:28:19 <manu1> ShaneM: There is a @version attribute in 1.1 - but only in XHTML
15:31:39 <manu1> Manu: ... explains what he thinks that Jenny wants ...
15:33:58 <ShaneM> Isn't this what she wants? http://www.w3.org/2010/02/rdfa/sources/rdfa-core/Overview-src.html#a_history
15:36:25 <ShaneM> we said "There SHOULD be a @version attribute on the html element with the value "XHTML+RDFa 1.0""
15:37:29 <manu1> ShaneM: @version is required for XHTML+RDFa 1.0 documents.
15:37:34 <manu1> Ivan: We don't say that
15:37:46 <manu1> ShaneM: I didn't mean to imply that - that's how my processor works.
15:37:56 <manu1> Ivan: My processor doesn't do anything w/ @version attribute
15:38:39 <manu1> Ivan: I don't see any way to allow RDFa 1.0 processors to process RDFa 1.1 documents w/ @prefix etc.
15:39:28 <manu1> Ivan: I think what she's asking for is guidance, not a new processor feature that ensures that RDFa 1.0 processors can process RDFa 1.1 documents w/ RDFa 1.1 attributes.
15:39:35 <manu1> scribenick: tinkster
15:40:01 <tinkster> manu: does anyone believe that @version will help processors?
15:43:53 <tinkster> ivan: @version is useful for Jeni's first question, but useless for the second.
15:46:04 <tinkster> ShaneM: should we document techniques for processors to conform to 1.0 and 1.1?
15:46:28 <tinkster> ivan: we could mention @version as a switch for modes?
15:46:38 <tinkster> ShaneM: we could also use <!doctype>
15:47:03 <tinkster> ivan: in many XML processors, it's simpler to get the attribute than to find the doctype.
15:47:59 <tinkster> manu: i don't think we should change processing rules. we could add a section on compatibility though.
15:48:39 <tinkster> manu: overall i think our goal should be to tell people to just use 1.1.
15:48:43 <ivan> q+
15:48:52 <manu1> ack ivan
15:49:44 <tinkster> for a conformant 1.1 processor, if i get a 1.0 document, what's the proper behaviour?
15:49:51 <tinkster> s/for/Ivan: for/
15:50:00 <tinkster> manu: process as 1.1.
15:50:01 <ShaneM> q+ to discuss 1.0 support
15:50:11 <manu1> ack ShaneM
15:50:11 <Zakim> ShaneM, you wanted to discuss 1.0 support
15:51:24 <tinkster> ShaneM: if I see "1.0", then surely the correct behaviour is to treat it as 1.0. otherwise we're as bad as HTML5. ;-)
15:52:24 <tinkster> ivan: it's quite simple to switch.
15:53:11 <tinkster> manu: it would be strange if we suggested @version to detect but didn't define a @version attribute in 1.1.
15:53:34 <webr3> q+
15:53:55 <tinkster> manu: we'd have a big fight with HTMLWG if we added @version.
15:53:58 <manu1> ack [IPcaller]
15:54:21 <tinkster> toby: points out that HTML4, XHTML 1.x, HTML 3.2 and HTML 2.0 all had @version.
15:55:38 <ShaneM> why is it a bad idea to give people the opportuntity to tell a processor what version of RDFa is in a document I write?  why?
15:55:47 <ShaneM> s/I write/they write/
15:55:47 <manu1> because they won't use it
15:55:56 <manu1> and it becomes useless very quickly if it's optional
15:56:10 <manu1> and if it's not optional, their documents break - same issue w/ @version in HTML4 vs HTML5
15:57:31 <tinkster> webr3: we need to not just announce which version of RDFa is being ignored, but whether RDFa is being used at all.
15:58:37 <tinkster> manu: to completely ignore any document that doesn't have @version will not work - google, yahoo, etc want to get as much information as possible, whether or not document authors stuck to the rules.
15:58:42 <tinkster> ivan: agrees
16:00:01 <ivan> q+
16:00:13 <tinkster> We can require @version to be conformant for authors without forbidding consumers from being liberal in what they accept.
16:00:46 <manu1> ack ivan
16:01:42 <tinkster> ivan: my approach - an RDFa 1.1 processor that sees a 1.0 @version attribute SHOULD/MUST attempt to maintain backwards compatibility.
16:02:08 <ShaneM> Note that I do not think we need to specify any of this in RDFa 1.1.  We said it in 1.0.  incompletely.  that horse has left the barn.
16:02:28 <tinkster> ... and thus we should allow people to use version="RDFa 1.1" for those people who want to target a specific version.
16:03:09 <ShaneM> FYI @version in XHTML+RDFa has a value of 'XHTML+RDFa 1.1"
16:04:52 <tinkster> ShaneM: we could say this in core. @version is still in the spec, we just don't say authors SHOULD use it any more.
16:06:11 <tinkster> manu: OK, we need to come up with @version values for HTML4+RDFa, HTML5+RDFa.
16:06:21 <manu1> version="HTML+RDFa 1.0"
16:06:22 <manu1> version="HTML+RDFa 1.1"
16:06:24 <manu1> version="HTML4+RDFa 1.1"
16:06:27 <manu1> version="HTML5+RDFa 1.1"
16:06:32 <webr3> RDFa 1.1
16:06:40 <manu1> version="RDFa 1.1"
16:07:22 <ShaneM> version="RDFa11" ?
16:07:30 <tinkster> Toby: I think I look for version =~ /RDFa\s*([0-9\.]+)/i
16:07:53 <webr3> rdfa="1.1"
16:08:54 <tinkster> Ivan: Nathan suggests rdfa="1.1", on the root element. Not such a bad idea.
16:09:08 <webr3> if you see @version = 1.0 then infer rdfa="1.0"
16:09:27 <Steven> I would rather argue for the use of an existing attribute
16:10:13 <Steven> <meta about="" property="rdfa:version" content="1.1"/>
16:10:25 <tinkster> ShaneM: Ben would say that many authors can't access <html> - they're using wikis and CMSes. What are they supposed to do?
16:10:37 <Knud> the default version is the latest available RDFa spec?
16:10:47 <ShaneM> knud: yes
16:11:12 <tinkster> Toby: Steven's idea would require parsing RDFa to know how to parse RDFa?
16:11:55 <webr3> i have to go for 10 minutes sorry, can return
16:12:00 <tinkster> manu: We're past the hour now, so bye bye to those who can't stick around.
16:12:03 <Steven> Sorry I can't stay, have to get kids
16:12:16 <Zakim> -tinkster1
16:12:22 <Zakim> -Steven
16:19:23 <manu1> ShaneM: There is an issue w/ requiring @version
16:19:54 <manu1> ShaneM: If we want to introduce an rdfa attribute in the root element in rdfa core and assign it the value of "1.1" - I don't know about the HTML WG folks.
16:20:40 <ShaneM> http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-SVG11-20020108/#version-att
16:22:57 <manu1> Nathan: RDFa is seen as an extension of HTML, not a part of HTML - if it's an extension, do we need a version for the extension?
16:23:24 <manu1> Nathan: In some cases it'll be seen as part of HTML in others it'll be seen as an extension - @version doesn't apply to everything.
16:23:36 <manu1> Nathan: No way to detect a version when people want to just place snippets in there.
16:24:08 <manu1> version="*RDFa 1.0*
16:24:11 <manu1> version="*RDFa 1.1*
16:24:14 <manu1> version="*RDFa 2.0*
16:26:19 <ShaneM> PROPOSAL: introduce @version in RDFa core with a value of RDFa 1.1.  If it sees the 1.0 string, then it is processed as 1.0.  If it sees 1.1 it processes as 1.1. if it sees nothing, it will be treated as the latest version of RDFa (currently 1.1).
16:27:33 <tinkster> -1 (SVG compat)
16:28:28 <manu1> zakim, who is on the call?
16:28:28 <Zakim> On the phone I see ShaneM, manu1, Ivan, Knud, Benjamin, [IPcaller]
16:28:33 <ShaneM> so we are back to the 'rdfa' attribute?
16:30:48 <webr3> does svg not use a doctype?
16:31:31 <Zakim> -Knud
16:33:24 <manu1> PROPOSAL: Re-introduce @version in XHTML+RDFa 1.1. If an RDFa Processor sees the string "RDFa 1.0", then it is processed as 1.0. If it sees "RDFa 1.1", it is processed as 1.1. If the processor does not see @version in XHTML+RDFa, the latest processing rules are used. If a Host Language doesn't allow specification via @version, the latest processing rules are used.
16:34:02 <tinkster> +1
16:34:06 <ShaneM> +1
16:34:35 <ivan> +1
16:34:36 <Benjamin> +1
16:34:36 <manu1> +1
16:34:46 <manu1> RESOLVED: Re-introduce @version in XHTML+RDFa 1.1. If an RDFa Processor sees the string "RDFa 1.0", then it is processed as 1.0. If it sees "RDFa 1.1", it is processed as 1.1. If the processor does not see @version in XHTML+RDFa, the latest processing rules are used. If a Host Language doesn't allow specification via @version, the latest processing rules are used.
16:34:50 <webr3> +1 (but recognise caveat that RDFa always has to maintain backwards compat the same way HTML does w/ different rules for processors, and XHTML essentially needs it's own per version strict rules  modes)
16:35:31 <ivan> zakim, bye

16:41:07 <manu1> RRSAgent, help?
16:41:07 <RRSAgent> I'm logging.  Sorry, nothing found for 'help'
16:41:16 <manu1> RRSAgent, publish minutes
16:41:16 <RRSAgent> I have made the request to generate http://www.w3.org/2011/02/17-rdfa-minutes.html manu1
16:47:03 <webr3> manu, still around?
16:47:28 <manu1> yup
16:47:52 <webr3> ok, perhaps a stupid question, does RDFa 1.0 have HTML support (not xhtml)
16:48:08 <manu1> nope
16:48:15 <manu1> well, yes and no
16:48:17 <manu1> not officially
16:48:27 <manu1> but everybody's processor will work on an HTML document that contains RDFa.
16:48:42 <manu1> and I have a feeling that people will be lax about the @version attribute as well
16:49:09 <manu1> (meaning, if the processor sees @version="..." it will process it regardless of whether or not it's an HTML4, HTML5 or XHTML1 document)
16:49:11 <webr3> okay.. then i have to say a couple of things..
16:50:34 <webr3> RDFa Core from here on always needs to be backwards compatible, versionless, and have a set of processing rules that take in to account bc (like HTML does), xmlns must not be supported (for authors) in HTML, and HTML+RDFa shouldn't mention it, XHTML+RDFa host profiles will always need to be explicitly versioned, and have their own set of per version rules
16:51:18 <webr3> and some note that specifies the switching mechanism for XHTML+RDFa, if you see 1.0 use 1.0 processor, if 1.1 use 1.1 processor, and so forth
16:51:44 <webr3> other techs that are versionless, like HTML, SVG, just have to use the latest processing rules and author guidelines at all times
16:56:18 <tinkster> RDFa 1.1 kinda gives us an alternative version switch going forward.
16:58:49 <tinkster> RDFa 2.0 could simply define a profile URI <http://www.w3.org/profile/rdfa-2.0> and make it 404. This profile could then my used by authors to hide elements from RDFa 1.1 processors, while RDFa 2.0 processors would know all about the magic 404 profile and look inside the element for juicy 2.0 goodness.
17:01:37 <webr3> tinkster, did you see jhigman looking for you earlier btw?
17:01:42 <webr3> in #swig
17:09:32 <ShaneM> tinkster: 404?  eww
17:10:28 <tinkster> Use a "urn:" then - whatever. Something an RDFa 1.1 processor can't dereference.
