16:22:48 <sandro> cygri: Why not name the different escape mechanisms, then use those names when saying which kind is allowed where.   eg "Local Name Escaping", etc.
16:23:21 <sandro> ... "Magic Special Character Escaping" is \t stuff.      etc.   Then say which you can do each place.

16:23:57 <sandro> ericP: Sounds reasonable.
16:24:08 <sandro> ... I'll present two options.
16:24:10 <ericP> cygri: editorial proposal: name the escaping mechanisms and reference the names in e.g. IRI, local names, strings
16:24:16 <davidwood> ack sandro
16:25:26 <cygri> +1 sandro, to giving *some* explicit name to these escape mechanisms also makes talking about this stuff much easier

16:26:12 <sandro> sandro: if you can't come up with good names for the types, then just use type-1-escaping, type-2-escaping, etc.   And have a table of which works where.

16:35:16 <ericP> PatH: do graph labels mean the same thing in different data sets?
16:35:27 <ericP> ... these questions affect other decisions

16:37:46 <davidwood> Subtopic: Islands 🌴
16:37:57 <pfps> ?? to David's channelling of Andy
16:37:58 <ericP> davidwood: in AndyS's island terminology, two graphs may use a uri in the 4th slot to mean different things
16:38:41 <ericP> AndyS: the island idea was that there's a *social* step of assembling the data, and we're interested in that step
16:38:51 <ericP> PatH: does it have technical consequences?
16:38:55 <davidwood> Pat said, "What [2] says is that *the same* URI when used in one graph can mean something completely different when used in another graph, and that *this is perfectly correct* and even in fact *consistent*. What this means is that every URI in every graph is interpreted locally to that graph, which in effect makes every URI into a blank node (since this is how blank nodes are interpreted.) This is dissolving the entire Web in a kind of universal solvent."  (w
16:39:04 <ericP> ... must the machinery support it?
16:39:28 <ericP> PatH: the obvious consequence is that the machinery that we have shouldn't force false consequences
16:39:42 <PatH> that was andy
16:41:03 <PatH> btw, that mention of bnodes was wrong, I acknowledge.
16:41:05 <ericP> davidwood: in linked data, we say that using the same IRI in different places means the same thing.
16:41:44 <ericP> AndyS: i think trying to address this technical hampers progress because we assume there's a single technical solution
16:42:13 <ericP> ... saying that "there's good practice and bad practice" is a weaker way forward
16:42:40 <ericP> PatH: what "less ambitious" solution do you have in mind?
16:42:48 <sandro> q+
16:42:54 <ericP> ... there are datasets out there, people use them in various ways
16:43:09 <ericP> AndyS: we have claimed we will solve some use cases
16:43:16 <ericP> ... maybe that's too ambitious
16:43:35 <ericP> ... we don't want to solve those use cases, we want to give folks machinery to solve those use cases
16:43:42 <ericP> ... we just have to not mess them up
16:44:10 <PatH> q+
16:44:21 <davidwood> ack sandro
16:44:24 <ericP> davidwood: separating tech from social issues is helpful

16:44:42 <Zakim> -pchampin
16:45:13 <ericP> sandro: in editing Why_Graphs this AM, these are all things that people want to standardize
16:45:42 <ericP> ... i don't think you can do any of these 5 things without defining semantics to trig
16:46:05 <ericP> ... how can i do <shared web crawler> and <archiving web crawler> in the same world?
16:46:17 <PatH> +1 sandro.
16:46:25 <ericP> ... all use trig as a simple and obvious solution but they use it with different semantics
16:46:42 <ericP> ... could scribble into trig some info about how it's being used
16:47:08 <ericP> ... i think 2 and 3 share a semantics, and 4 just says you need bnodes shared between graphs
16:47:23 <ericP> ... 3 semantics:
16:47:36 <ericP> ... .. relation between name and graph is log:semantics
16:47:48 <ericP> ... .. relation between name and graph is owl:sameAs
16:47:59 <ericP> ... .. no relation between name and graph
16:48:39 <sandro> <a> owl:sameAs { <s> <p> <o> }
16:48:42 <pchampin> pchampin has joined #rdf-wg
16:48:45 <zwu2> sounds a bit odd :)
16:48:52 <ericP> ivan: so for owl:sameAs, an RDF graph becomes an OWL individual
16:49:34 <ericP> MacTed: when i say "Joe" and i say <http://joe.example/#> i mean the same joe
16:49:41 <AndyS> q+
16:49:46 <ericP> ... when you say "Joe" you mean Joe Jr.
16:50:05 <sandro> pfps, in OWL2 is an owl:Ontology a kind of individual?
16:50:34 <ericP> ... likewise when you say <http://joe.example/#> you mean Joe Jr.
16:51:00 <pfps> sandro, you just asked a question that does not really have an informal answer
16:51:05 <AndyS> q-
16:51:38 <sandro> pfps, do you agree with AZ?       (No in Direct Semantics, Yes in RDF-based semantics)   ?
16:51:40 <ericP> ericP: when i write a language, i expect the compiler to give me errors
16:52:01 <ericP> PatH: you can expect to discover inconsistency
16:52:17 <ericP> ... the role of semantics is to deliver to you the fact that there's an abberation

16:52:44 <ericP> MacTed: i have the impression that folks are trying to prevent such abberations from occuring
16:52:58 <PatH> q-
16:53:01 <ericP> PatH: i don't think that [preventing abberations] can be done
16:53:56 <AZ> isn't TriG just a syntax?
16:53:59 <pfps> sandro, in OWL 2 Direct Semantics owl:Ontology does not appear
16:54:02 <ericP> ... if an IRI is used as a graph label in a trig doc, and used as a label for another graph in another doc, is it the same thing?
16:54:18 <ericP> q?
16:54:37 <ericP> AndyS: i've never seen it meant to label different things
16:54:51 <ericP> ... if it's contradictory, you've screwed up
16:54:58 <ericP> q+
16:55:24 <ericP> sandro: i think the labeling relation is different
16:55:29 <ericP> ... (generally)
16:55:51 <ericP> AndyS: if you allow that, you'd allow it to be a partial description

16:59:01 <davidwood> ack zwu
16:59:03 <ericP> ericP: i think the common usage of SPARQL gives the answer here

17:02:48 <davidwood> q?
17:03:02 <pchampin> pchampin: shouldn't we focus on what a trig file *means*, rather than what we will *do* with it?
17:03:29 <ericP> davidwood: we've come back to this point several times: specifically, what do we want to do with a quad
17:03:31 <pchampin> pchampin: the question might be harder to answer, but then the answer to the other questions would  follow
17:03:53 <ericP> ... is it fair to say that these five use cases are divergent enough to keep us from making a solution?

17:04:54 <sandro> http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/wiki/TF-Graphs-Designs
17:05:02 <ericP> sandro: in the Why_Graphs, if you use trig in the intuitively obvious way, you end up with inconsistent uses

17:09:59 <AZ> q+
17:10:13 <ericP> ... in trig, there are cases where the 4th column is a label for something like time
17:10:51 <davidwood> ack AZ
17:10:51 <ericP> ... thinking of these things as graphs doesn't fit with all of the intuitions we want to express
17:11:03 <ericP> AZ: +1 to PatH
17:11:37 <AndyS> That wasn't my concern.  1) feels too much like complete replumbing to the deployed data web. (2) explaining it to people unless we define graph literals in Turtle.
17:11:43 <ericP> ... with one syntax, we have a way of express stuff that we other way we can't express
17:12:03 <ericP> ... we could standardize trig and nquads
17:12:44 <sandro> sandro: TriG and N-Quads prejudice against solutions like Graph Objects (N3).
17:12:52 <ericP> sandro: those prejudice against solutions like Graph Objects (N3)
17:13:32 <PatH> Trig prejudices against 4th field as a time parameter.
