14:08:16 <manu> Introduction: Niklas Lindstrom
14:09:07 <MacTed> lindstream: consultant in Sweden, working with RDF for 6+ years, semantics and fidelity of expression are prime interests
14:09:43 <MacTed> ... coming back to RDFa from API perspective, but now considering Microdata/mapping concerns
14:10:11 <manu> Topic: Updates on HTML WG position on TAG note
14:10:28 <manu> http://www.w3.org/2011/06/30-html-wg-minutes.html#item09
14:10:49 <MacTed> manu: HTML WG has discussed what to do about TAG note; basic response is "need information"
14:11:05 <Steven_> q+
14:12:16 <MacTed> Steven_: all the more reason why we should send a formal objection 
14:12:24 <MacTed> manu: better that the TAG does that
14:12:26 <Steven_> ack me
14:13:37 <MacTed> manu: HTML WG has basically asked TAG to make their concerns more clear and formal, before they will act
14:14:01 <MacTed> Steven_: if TAG does so, that's fine.  if not, then we should step up.
14:14:38 <MacTed> manu: that's the path we'll take
14:14:44 <manu> Topic: Review official position e-mail on TAG issue
14:14:54 <manu> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdfa-wg/2011Jul/0007.html
14:16:30 <MacTed> manu: ...reviewing official position email draft, position by position...
14:17:44 <MacTed> ... "CONCERN: Multiple specifications for the same task" -- effectively, same concern as TAG has expressed.  
14:18:00 <gkellogg> q+
14:18:02 <MacTed> ... not "which spec should exist?" but "should there be two specs?"
14:18:47 <lindstream> q+
14:19:00 <manu> ack gkellogg
14:19:03 <MacTed> gkellogg: 2 key questions -- should there be 2 markups, and what is range of data to be marked up?
14:19:34 <MacTed> ... i.e., what is the purpose of metadata markup in HTML?  presumably to generate data compatible with other W3C specs, e.g., RDF
14:19:50 <manu> ack lindstream
14:20:46 <steven__> steven__ has joined #rdfa
14:22:34 <MacTed> q+
14:22:51 <MacTed>  (discussion)
14:24:23 <lindstream> q+
14:24:35 <MacTed> ack MacTed
14:24:54 <manu> ack MacTed
14:25:10 <manu> MacTed: This is a range issue - what use cases are supported?
14:25:14 <manu> ack lindstream
14:25:40 <MacTed> lindstream: apart from use cases (what), microdata raises concern of *how*
14:26:18 <MacTed> ... how much do you expose to an expert as opposed to a newbie?
14:27:07 <MacTed> manu: is the important thing, how much complexity do new people have to deal with straight-away?
14:27:58 <MacTed> lindstream: that's the gist.  e.g., if something looks like a date, is that enough, or does it have to be specifically typed, etc?
14:28:18 <scor> bear in mind that the reason why md was created is because RDFa was covering too many use cases and was overkill for the basic web developers... the TF should focus on identifying practical use cases which RDFa covers (and not no md) which make sense for regular web developers (the audience of md)
14:29:51 <MacTed> manu: `CONCERN: Consensus on "No Change"` -- TAG must know that this really isn't an option
14:30:02 <lindstream> q+
14:30:57 <MacTed> lindstream: it's very bad to have two specs for the same thing... 
14:31:45 <MacTed> manu: `CONCERN: Key implementers will choose to not be involved.`  XHTML and XForms both had task forces to figure out best way forward; neither was successful because key players didn't play
14:32:06 <manu> ack lindstream
14:32:15 <MacTed> ... advice is, make sure the list we've sent gets involved
14:32:56 <MacTed> ... `CONCERN: Agreement and then non-action` -- everybody agrees on plan, but nobody acts on agreement...
14:33:19 <MacTed> ... advice is to actively review commitments and report on follow-through
14:34:38 <MacTed> ... `CONCERN: Slow creation of Task Force` -- if it takes too long to create TF, other WG (RDFa, HTML, others?) timelines are jeopardized
14:35:13 <MacTed> ... advice is to prioritize this TF effort
14:35:39 <lindstream> q+
14:35:51 <manu> ack lindstream
14:36:34 <MacTed> lindstream: conflicting specs have happened before. this is opportunity for W3C to show they can handle such conflicts...
14:39:18 <MacTed> Steven_: does TAG think that creating this TF is their job?
14:39:19 <ShaneM> ShaneM has joined #rdfa
14:39:35 <MacTed> manu: nobody wants the job...  everybody's waiting to see who steps forward
14:39:48 <MacTed> ... we'll nudge TAG to accept responsibility
14:40:07 <MacTed> ... `CONCERN: TAG Note is not actionable` 
14:40:36 <MacTed> ... advice: formalize objections & concerns, so that something actually comes of this
14:42:03 <MacTed> ACTION: manu to revise email to TAG based on today's discussion, with "last comments" due ASAP mailing list 
14:42:04 <trackbot> Created ACTION-87 - Revise email to TAG based on today's discussion, with "last comments" due ASAP mailing list  [on Manu Sporny - due 2011-07-14].
14:42:25 <manu> Topic: Thoughts on RDFa Basic vs. RDFa Advanced
14:42:35 <manu> http://manu.sporny.org/rdfa/rdfa-core-simplified/diff-20110331.html
14:43:12 <MacTed> lindstream: Microdata seems to be surface data with no fidelity. 
14:43:39 <MacTed> ... can quickly be mapped to triples, if you base off URI of current document
14:44:56 <MacTed> ... vocab and profile mechanisms could be used to add fidelity
14:45:25 <MacTed> ... somewhat akin to GRDDL
14:46:17 <manu> This is somewhat akin to the JSON-LD coercion approach: http://json-ld.org/spec/ED/20110615/#type-coercion
14:47:01 <MacTed> manu: points out similarity of JSON-LD coercion approach: http://json-ld.org/spec/ED/20110615/#type-coercion
14:47:11 <Zakim> +??P2
14:47:57 <MacTed> lindstream: and also to GLUON...
14:47:58 <gkellogg> q+
14:49:25 <manu> ack gkellogg
14:49:35 <MacTed> lindstream: this might also answer how to represent RDF connections in RDFa
14:49:43 <manu> q+ to note browser manufacturers don't like this.
14:50:01 <lindstream> q+
14:50:26 <MacTed> gkellogg: putting profile in RDFa Advanced seems to make this a less useful path forward...?
14:50:27 <manu> ack manu
14:50:27 <Zakim> manu, you wanted to note browser manufacturers don't like this.
14:51:54 <MacTed> manu: browser vendors are expressing preference for non-RDFa APIs, because they think RDFa API makes caching and other performance issues harder to address
14:52:23 <MacTed> manu: trouble with profile is that browser has to stop processing, retrieve profile doc, and then resume processing
14:52:54 <manu> ack lindstream
14:52:59 <MacTed> ... browser vendors just don't like profile...
14:54:30 <MacTed> lindstream: put profile in Basic, but allow basic API processing *without* profile application (and thus low fidelity).  Advanced brings profile processing (and high fidelity)...
14:55:20 <manu> zakim, who is on the call? 
14:55:20 <Zakim> On the phone I see lindstream, scor, manu, MacTed, gkellogg, Steven, ??P2
14:55:38 <ShaneM> zakim, ??P2 is ShaneM
14:55:38 <Zakim> +ShaneM; got it
14:56:58 <MacTed> Topic: Philip's comments on APIs 
14:56:58 <MacTed> manu: should be taken seriously, as a key browser implementer...
14:58:20 <Steven_> q+
14:58:27 <MacTed> manu: maybe we should sit on WHAT WG, mozilla, other channels, and pester them about API thoughts
14:58:53 <MacTed> ... we do want a path that makes it easy for browser vendors to implement
14:58:58 <Steven_> q-
14:58:59 <lindstream> q+
14:59:41 <MacTed> ... "easy to implement in Javascript doesn't mean easy to implement in a performant way"
15:00:04 <manu> ack lindstream
15:01:18 <MacTed> lindstream: performance concerns seem addressable by low-fidelity microdata-ish RDFa Basic. 
15:01:31 <MacTed> q+
15:01:37 <manu> ack MacTed
15:01:59 <manu> MacTed: It seems that the browser vendors are mostly concerned about human interaction - most of what we're takling about is machine interaction.
15:02:12 <lindstream> q+
15:02:54 <manu> MacTed: Basic to Advanced progression makes a great deal of sense to me - initial pass - low fidelity. Once there is something there for human to deal w/ then we do more advanced / less performant mechanism.
15:03:43 <MacTed> lindstream: interesting consideration is "end users" vs "re-users" even more than "human" vs "machine"
15:04:19 <lindstream> q+
15:04:24 <scor> manu: we should not be pestering them
15:04:30 <scor> manu1: ^^
15:04:50 <MacTed> manu: anyone willing to sit on WHAT-WG channel and ask questions?
15:05:06 <MacTed> lindstream: will be polling relevant existing contacts...
15:05:10 <manu> ack scor
15:05:23 <scor> +1
15:05:47 <MacTed> manu: right, this is not about pestering, but about checking for concerns with APIs, and figuring out how best to address...
15:06:12 <MacTed> ... correcting misundersatndings, etc.
