13:15:50 [Paolo]
so slide 6 summarize proposals on first question
13:16:07 [Paolo]
that was "Given information regarding where to access data on the provenance of a resource state representation, what form does that information take and how do we obtain the provenance data? "
13:16:41 [Paolo]
slide 7
13:17:05 [Paolo]
proposals for Q2, embedding provenance into an HTML doc: "How can a browser find the information on where to access provenance data, referred to above, for an HTML document that was downloaded, so that its provenance may be retrieved? "

13:21:27 [pgroth]
q?
13:21:37 [pgroth]
q?
13:21:50 [sandro]
"There may be data regarding the provenance of a thing accessible from multiple sources."
13:22:18 [Paolo]
item 1 -- there may be multiple services providing provenance, or multiple prov URIs for an entity state
13:22:39 [Paolo]
this has implications for access
13:23:12 [sandro]
smiles: not the intent to suggest the data is the same.
13:23:23 [GK]
Different provenance from different sources could be different, even inconsistent. IMO.
13:24:00 [pgroth]
Proposal: Provenance of a thing can be found at multiple sources
13:24:13 [olaf]
+1 to "There may be data regarding the provenance of a thing accessible from multiple sources." (and this provenance information may differ)
13:27:58 [Paolo]
Tim: can we just state provenance without referring "of ...(Bob etc)"?
13:28:30 [Paolo]
Tim: main point is multiplicity
13:28:53 [GK]
I would say that (provenance data) is a web *resource* - the state representation is what is actually transferred.
13:29:04 [zednik]
provenance metadata may be available from many sources and need not be globaly consistent?
13:29:29 [pgroth]
Proposal: Provenance of a "bob" can be found at multiple sources

13:30:27 [zednik]
I redact the use of consistent in the earlier comment
13:30:44 [Paolo]
this is about location. the point of consistency to be addressed later
13:31:22 [tlebo]
I retract (we are not talking about the model)

13:31:44 [Paulo]
is this source in the "real world" or it does not matter?
13:32:10 [Luc]
accepted: Provenance of a "bob" can be found at multiple sources
13:32:44 [Paolo]
Smiles: we are not discussing nature of source just now
13:33:05 [GK]
Anyone can say anything about anything... including provenance.
13:33:25 [JimMcCusker]
+1 to AAAP
13:34:43 [pgroth]
q?
13:34:54 [GK]
KISS: start with easy cases, then address identified gaps.
13:35:31 [Paolo]
Paulo: whatever the solution to provenance encoding, it should be non intrusive wrt the underlying data
13:35:49 [tlebo]
paulo: not changing a bit of a BOB while still being able express provenance of a BOB.
13:36:09 [Paolo]
smiles: we are agnostic, some encodings may be intrusive
13:36:26 [Paolo]
Paulo: at least one encoding should not be intrusive
13:36:39 [Paolo]
smiles: the opposite may also be true
13:36:54 [smiles]
Proposed: The information required to obtain access to some provenance of a thing may be supplied in many different ways, and we do not aim to enumerate them all.

q+
13:40:15 [tlebo]
q+ protocols that allow third parties to submit pointers to provenance of a BOB.
13:40:24 [Luc]
PROPOSED: The WG effort will concern how the provider of a BOB can supply information required to obtain access to some provenance of that BOB (which may, as a side effect, include recommendations on how others can do the same).
13:41:10 [Paolo]
on third point
13:41:40 [Luc]
ACCEPTED: The information required to obtain access to some provenance of a BOB may be supplied in many different ways, and we do not aim to enumerate them all.
13:42:01 [Paolo]
olaf: this is focused on apporaches to provide provenance, but it is also important to allow provider to associate provenance /as part of the "thing"/
13:43:05 [Paolo]
pgroth: propose to replace supply with obtain
13:43:16 [Paolo]
luc: or "embed"?
13:44:31 [tlebo]
pgroth: first-party ONLY providing access. OUT OF SCOPE: third party providing information about accessing provenance.
13:44:38 [Paolo]
pgroth: example: WG is concerned with how a /data provider/ supplies provenance about it

q+ to ask about third parties submitting pointers to first parties (which first parties can choose to include in their access descriptions)
13:45:28 [Paolo]

q-
13:46:26 [tlebo]
(e.g. First Party is New York Times that makes article)
13:46:44 [Paolo]
satya: do we need a distinction between first party and third parties (as in ex. above)
13:47:39 [tlebo]
are we failing to support "down stream" provenance of a BOB created?
13:48:04 [Paolo]
satya: eg embedded HTML link may not be from first party -- distinction may be difficult to make in practice
13:48:17 [tlebo]
luc: provider vs author.
13:48:19 [GK]
Third party provenance: NYT vs blogger not distinguished - trust is an orthogonal issue. The resource provider has privileged access for indicating provenance sources - I think that's unavoidable.
13:48:26 [pgroth]
q?
13:48:27 [tlebo]

ack tlebo
13:48:48 [Zakim]
tlebo, you wanted to ask about third parties submitting pointers to first parties (which first parties can choose to include in their access descriptions)
13:49:06 [Luc]
q+
13:49:31 [Paolo]
tlebo: WG effort seems to be focused on first parties -- does this allow us to accept third party provenance of Bob's?
13:49:34 [GK]
The point of the scope is to simplify things: so initially, make choices that simplify. Later consider alternatives.
13:50:20 [Yogesh]
q+
13:50:29 [Paolo]
tlebo: a provider should be able to accept additional provenance of its Bob from a third party. this is key to establish a web of provenance
13:50:46 [GK]
It's not up to the provider to "accept" third party provenance assertions. The web allows anybody to say...
13:50:49 [Satya]
How is defining the scope of the user affecting the workload of the PAQTF?
13:51:06 [pgroth]
ack Luc
13:51:22 [GK]
It avoids having to initially consider problems of third party discovery.
13:51:30 [GK]
^^ @satya
13:51:54 [Satya]
@GK How? What are the problems of third party discovery?
13:52:09 [pgroth]
q?
13:52:15 [pgroth]
ack Yog
13:52:22 [tlebo]
smiles: first party provenance-of-BOB publishers accepting third party provenance-of-BOBs and choosing to include them is NOT out of scope.
13:52:24 [tlebo]
q-
13:52:38 [tlebo]
q+
13:52:40 [GK]
@Satya: I have a resource without provenance. You publish provenance about that resource. How does someone else discover that provenance?
13:52:58 [Paolo]
Luc, smiles: w elmit the scope for the first draft only
13:53:15 [Paolo]
s/w elmit/we limit
13:53:40 [GK]
Sure, first draft only.
13:53:56 [Satya]
@GK They either query the resource itslef (for embedded link) or they "llok it up on the web"
13:54:08 [Satya]
itslef> itself
13:54:09 [tlebo]
"letting third parties do what they want" is insufficient, because we are failing to support DISCOVERABILITY (which is part of ACCESS).
13:54:30 [GK]
@Satya: first approach requires provider to cooperate. Latter is default - what more to specify?
13:54:38 [tlebo]
q?
13:55:05 [Paolo]
yogesh: starting point for discovering provenance is the provider
13:55:19 [pgroth]
ack tl
13:55:45 [Satya]
@GK why as a WG we are mandating "bob" providers to give access to the provenance of "bob"?
13:56:32 [GK]
@Satya, we're not. Just focusing first on those that want to.
13:56:44 [Paolo]
tlebo: NYT should be able to supply provenance of its own image, but also of new versions of that image that may have been manipulated by somebody else
13:56:50 [SamCoppens]
q+
13:57:28 [tlebo]
q-
13:57:29 [Paolo]
pgroth: the example is orthogonal to this proposal
13:57:49 [GK]
Nothing is being excluded as an eventual possibility...
13:58:03 [Paolo]
provenance being downstream etc is not the point here
13:58:08 [pgroth]
q?
13:58:08 [Satya]
@GK Anybody may want to - why should we discriminate between "first", "second" etc. providers?
13:58:14 [GK]
... my view (an experience) is that when a simple solution is on the table, it's much easier to see how tio engibneer more advanced solutions.
13:58:30 [GK]
@SDatya. Who said anything about disciminating.
13:59:26 [Paolo]
Luc: should the draft editors be free to decide, as per previous point just accepted
13:59:50 [Satya]
@GK We are trying to categorize "bob" providers as first, second, etc parties
13:59:54 [GK]
We rule out nothing in the longer term.
14:00:27 [sandro]
[[ Apologies, I need to step out for ~60 minutes, with my laptop, so no webcams either. Very sorry. ]]
14:00:55 [GK]
@Satya - I think one must recognize that the provider of a resource has control over metadata that accompanies that provision. I see that is a given. Beyond that, not attempting to categorize.
14:01:30 [pgroth]
q?
14:01:35 [Satya]
@GK ok - then we don't have to specify this explicitly since it is open/implicit anyway

q?
14:04:51 [GK]
I think you meant to say "How do you find what it is provenance _of_"?
14:05:00 [Paolo]
is this for this TF? the model has a notion of "prov container"
14:05:41 [Paolo]
smiles: question is, what do you need (I,L, etc.) to gain access to provenance
14:05:48 [pgroth]
q?
14:06:56 [GK]
@paolo - I agree it's a model issue, but I think it's highly desirable that retrieved provenance data identifies what it is referring to.

14:07:07 [pgroth]
ack Luc
14:07:53 [Paolo]
satya: is the question how you associate P and I?
14:08:45 [GK]
That is an assumption.
14:09:14 [Paolo]
satya: realistic scenario is that you don't start from provenance, you start from the data (entity state)
14:10:43 [GK]
One could imagine doing a web search to provide the most accurate available instance of some some data: in this case one might find provenance first, then use that lo locate the resource.
14:10:59 [Paolo]
clarification: I is the URI (reference to) an entity state, not the entity state itself
14:11:33 [Luc]
q?
14:11:44 [JimMcCusker]
I think we've found another Bob...
14:12:02 [Paolo]
satya: not clear how we identify entity states in the first place
14:12:08 [GK]
My assumption is that BOBs have URIs (or may have URIs)
14:12:50 [GK]
For a genuinely static resource, it's possible R == I (resource URI == BOBN URI)

q?
14:17:40 [Paolo]
q?
14:18:43 [Paolo]
satya: are we assuming we have a "provenance container" with a single URI P for a set of provenance assertions?
14:19:44 [GK]
My default position is that provenance is on the web, and as such may be a resource, and as such may (and often should) have a URI. That deals (IMO) with 80-90% of the access mechanism.
14:20:21 [Paolo]
smiles: either you need the ID (I) of a specific Bob, or the association is apparent and that's not needed
14:20:47 [Luc]

ack Luc
14:22:21 [Paolo]
satya: don't think we should get into the "inverse relationship" P -> I
14:23:21 [GK]
I would say that for the purpose of provenance *interchange*, it should be explicit what the provenance is about, even if it's implicit in its original form.
14:25:09 [Paolo]
pgroth: it must be an issue, cannot just be ignored.

I can easily imagine a single RDF graph (provenance resource) that actually contains provenance of several BOBs.
14:26:01 [GK]
Ah, it's not about saying the resource is about one subject *only*...
14:26:27 [tlebo]
what slide is option B on?
14:26:31 [GK]
... just requiring that any given provenance information is explicit about what it's about.

I'm uncomfortable about defining invariant perspective in terms of properties... I suppose it works from a DL perspective, but I think of it more like a contextual constraint.

When A is an IVP of B, assertions that are enduringly true of B are also enduringly true of A. Further there may be some additional assertions that are only transiently true of B but are enduringly true of A.

@tlebo it is about relation between what is invariant about one bob and what is invariant about another - specifically that if one is the subset of another, then the provenance of one includes the provenance of another

(Maybe "enduring truth" -> "invariant truth")
16:39:44 [Satya]
@zednick - exactly the question I wanted to ask
16:40:20 [GK]
"tlebo - problem is that sameness can be hard to pin down, so appealing to it creates problem. At some intuitive level, there is a degree of sameness.
16:41:05 [pgroth]
@zednick @Satya - yes absolutely, entity state is just a way to identify entities through some invariant properties, no?

"corerespondence" assumes discrete properties to refer to. This is why I prefer definition in terms of assertions rather than interms of properties.

@GK I find a problem with defining in terms of assertions - in that it is not the assertions which need invariance. I agree that properties are invariant to some perspective/for some asserter.

As someone who is not anti-OWL but also not familiar with OWL, I hope we can minimize the amount that I (and people with similar background) have to learn...
19:45:39 [Yogesh]
pgroth: can we do this in owl and have an rdf-s schema?
19:47:15 [Yogesh]
Deborah: start in owl to ensure ontology modeling mindset. But try and use only parts that can map to RDF-S and flag those portions that do not map.

good point from khalid - from what i have heard, i think we need subclass, subrole, cardinality restrictions, value restrictions
