    General issues. Introduced Tom De Nies as a new working group member from IBBT.

  2. PROV-DM

    A status update on the dm was given. Both prov-dm and prov-n are pretty much ready to go for review on monday. prov-dm-constraints will be worked on this weekend. Luc has set-up issue numbers that general comments (grammer, etc) on these documents should be tagged with. The issue numbers can be found in the agenda.

  3. PROV-O

    PROV-O will be ready to go by monday and be made available in mecurial repository. In addition to the current set of reviewers, MacTed and Sam agreed to try to review as well.

  4. Prov-Primer

    The primer will be ready to release on Monday. It was agreed that collections would be postponed until the next working draft of the primer.

  5. PAQ

    Graham and Paul gave a status update on the PAQ. They think they have addressed most issues. They plan to release something for review by next week if all goes well. There was a discussion around what to use to substitute for entity-uri.

  6. Namespace Unification

    Paul reported on an email conversation with Jeni Tennison confirming that using a url with a hash was ok for xml. The group voted to use a common namespace http://www.w3.org/ns/prov# . Paul agreed to create an html index for this namespace and consult Ivan about having content negotiation to the owl file.

  7. Collections

    Luc raised the problem of naming relations for collections. There was limited comment.

  8. Substitute for entity-URI in PAQ

    The group returned to the conversation around what to use instead of entity-uri in the PAQ. In order to support, the retrieval of provenance for other provenance constructs (e.g. activity). Luc suggested to use the term "resource". Graham and Paul agreed that this is maybe a good option and to investigate more.
