16:13:38 [cygri]: ericP: there was internal debate in I18N on this
16:13:46 [ericP]: -> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-core/2012JulSep/0119 Martin J. Dürst says a document has an encoding
16:14:23 [cygri]: ... Addison wanted us to say that a document is a sequence of Unicode chars, but Martin said, no, a document has an encoding
16:14:40 [cygri]: ... I believe Martin is always right
16:14:53 [cygri]: ... They asked us to support any encoding
16:15:03 [cygri]: ... We said we only do UTF-8
16:15:26 [cygri]: ... I can send an email saying we go with Martin's story
16:16:06 [cygri]: davidwood: ok, I have re-assigned ACTION-190 to you
16:16:58 [cygri]: ericP: This (?) is tricky to do in ReSpec but easy at publication time, so please go ahead with the publication request

16:18:52 [ericP]: -> https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/rdf/raw-file/default/rdf-turtle/index.html Turtle Ed draft
16:19:45 [cygri]: (discussion of the date in the ED)
16:19:59 [davidwood]: Looking at https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/rdf/raw-file/default/rdf-turtle/index.html#in-html it looks like action 191 is complete.
16:20:55 [Zakim]: +FabGandon
16:20:55 [cygri]: davidwood: The section on embedding Turtle in HTML appears to be talking sufficiently about escaping.
16:21:19 [davidwood]: Close ACTION-191
16:21:19 [trackbot]: Closed ACTION-191 Add escaping to Turtle in HTML.
16:21:21 [cygri]: Guus: Let's call ACTION-191 done
16:22:04 [ericP]: scribenick: ericP
16:22:17 [cygri]: topic: Semantics
16:22:29 [ericP]: davidwood: hard to address issue 109 without Pat and Peter
16:22:32 [cygri]: davidwood: Pat and Peter not around, so let's move on from this one
16:22:44 [cygri]: topic: Cleanup items
16:23:11 [ericP]: davidwood: four open issues
16:23:16 [cygri]: davidwood: Four open issues here. Can we get through a couple of them?
16:23:27 [cygri]: ISSUE-25?
16:23:27 [trackbot]: ISSUE-25 -- Should we deprecate (RDF 2004) reification of statements? -- open
16:23:27 [trackbot]: http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/track/issues/25
16:23:58 [cygri]: subtopic: ISSUE-25 Deprecation of reification?
16:23:59 [ericP]: davidwood: last input from WG member was in Oct 2011
16:24:40 [ericP]: ... discussion about marking reification or aspects of reification archaic
16:24:50 [ericP]: ... we should close noting that resolution
16:25:14 [davidwood]: PROPOSAL: Close ISSUE-25 by saying that this WG will not deprecate reification of statements.
16:25:18 [cygri]: q+
16:25:22 [AndyS]: +1 to do nothing for or against reification (let it quietly slip away)
16:25:22 [Arnaud]: would be nice to briefly say why
16:25:24 [davidwood]: ack cygri
16:26:03 [ericP]: cygri: it might be a good idea to note informatively in the relevent spec section (RDF Schema) that named graphs and RDF datasets are another mechanism to accomplish the same goals
16:26:14 [TallTed]: +1
16:26:16 [ericP]: davidwood: yes, and we have to republish RDF Schema
16:26:31 [ericP]: ... Arnaud said it would be nice to know why.
16:26:43 [ericP]: ... fundamental issue is that the WG couldn't gain concensus
16:27:48 [yvesr]: +1, but it is added 'noise' to the spec, which will make it harder to understand for new-comers
16:27:53 [AndyS]: q+
16:28:01 [ericP]: ericP: are there folks using it?
16:28:16 [cygri]: q+ to mention Talis changesets
16:28:24 [ericP]: Arnaud: i used to tell people at IBM that reification was going away
16:28:30 [davidwood]: ack AndyS
16:28:34 [ericP]: ... can we doc why we don't have consensus?
16:28:47 [Zakim]: +PatH
16:28:55 [ericP]: AndyS: i'd rather not make a value judgement about reification.
16:28:58 [davidwood]: ack cygri
16:28:58 [Zakim]: cygri, you wanted to mention Talis changesets
16:29:10 [ericP]: ... it's used in fewer cases than before, but still sometimes the right thing to do
16:29:36 [ericP]: cygri: at the beginning of the WG, we mentioned that Talis used reification for their change sets
16:29:36 [TallTed]: Zakim, unmute me
16:29:36 [Zakim]: TallTed should no longer be muted
16:30:23 [ericP]: ... they've left that line of business ('cause of reificiation...?)
16:30:42 [ericP]: macted: they've left the public service part of that business but still do it in private
16:31:27 [davidwood]: q?
16:31:35 [ericP]: cygri: in private has less weight for us, but yes, we can document that there are multiple ways to accomplish these goals
16:32:21 [ericP]: PatH: it's not correct to say that named graphs provide an alternative 'cause it doesn't have a semantics.
16:32:46 [ericP]: ... reification does have a semantics; it's just not normative
16:33:21 [ericP]: cygri: the reification semantics are *neither* normative or informative
16:33:33 [davidwood]: PROPOSAL: Close ISSUE-25 by saying that this WG will not deprecate reification of statements. We will note informatively in the RDF Schema spec that named graphs and RDF datasets are another mechanism to accomplish the same goals.
16:33:40 [cygri]: s/or informative/nor formal/
16:33:47 [yvesr]: +1
16:33:54 [cygri]: +1
16:33:55 [FabGandon]: +1
16:33:55 [zwu2]: +1
16:33:57 [AndyS]: +1
16:33:59 [ericP]: davidwood: i think we don't have agreement about the text for guiding users
16:33:59 [gkellogg]: +1
16:34:02 [davidwood]: +1
16:34:02 [pchampin]: +1
16:34:04 [ericP]: ... but this is the best we can do
16:34:04 [TallTed]: +1
16:34:04 [Arnaud]: +1
16:34:05 [ericP]: +1
16:34:08 [Souri]: +1
16:34:12 [TallTed]: Zakim, mute me
16:34:12 [Zakim]: TallTed should now be muted
16:34:12 [AZ]: +1
16:34:29 [TallTed]: Zakim, unmute me
16:34:29 [Zakim]: TallTed should no longer be muted
16:36:24 [ericP]: davidwood: we have earlier issues, issue-3 and issue-6, about handling errata
16:36:37 [ericP]: ... gus summarized the errata in Oct 2012
16:36:50 [ericP]: s/gus/Guus/
16:37:02 [ericP]: davidwood: any volunteers to cleaning that up?
16:37:04 [cygri]: q+
16:37:09 [davidwood]: ack cygri
16:37:48 [ericP]: cygri: issue-3 seems to be about reviewing everything sent to the mailing list
16:37:58 [cygri]: http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/RDFCore/errata
16:38:06 [ericP]: ... issue-6 is about reviewing the well-structured errata page
16:38:26 [davidwood]: Guus' summary of errata and issues: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-wg/2012Oct/0234.html
16:38:58 [ericP]: ... some errata for RDF/XML, some for Semantics and 2 for test cases
16:39:59 [ericP]: ericP: actions on the spec editors for those specs?
16:40:19 [ericP]: PatH: action to review, incorporate and report
16:40:42 [TallTed]: Zakim, mute me
16:40:42 [Zakim]: TallTed should now be muted
16:41:13 [ericP]: Guus: my message has a long list of errata, not separated by doc
16:41:23 [ericP]: cygri: which were already captured on the errata page?
16:41:49 [ericP]: Guus: none. I intended to take only those not covered by the errata page
16:42:51 [ericP]: davidwood: we need to raise all of these as potential issues and decide which to open
16:43:41 [ericP]: ACTION: Guus to partition by document the issues in his summary and raise issues on the appropriate documents
16:43:41 [trackbot]: Created ACTION-223 - Partition by document the issues in his summary and raise issues on the appropriate documents [on Guus Schreiber - due 2013-01-30].
16:44:20 [ericP]: davidwood: in issue-62, the test cases manifest has a semantic error
16:44:39 [ericP]: ... we decided 1.5 years ago that we need to look at this.
16:45:02 [ericP]: ACTION: PatH to review and report on ISSUE-62
16:45:02 [trackbot]: Created ACTION-224 - Review and report on ISSUE-62 [on Patrick Hayes - due 2013-01-30].
16:45:06 [AndyS]: Hmm - it's used by other groups already.
16:45:14 [davidwood]: q?
16:45:30 [davidwood]: Topic: Extension Request
16:45:46 [ericP]: davidwood: this needs to be done within the week
16:45:48 [davidwood]: Draft in progress: http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/wiki/Rdf-extension.html
16:45:52 [ericP]: ... i have a draft on the wiki
16:46:07 [ericP]: ... i'm basing that off of the PROV WG's extension request
16:46:10 [davidwood]: …based on PROV-WG's extension request: https://www.w3.org/2012/08/prov-extension.html
16:46:34 [ericP]: ... next step is to make a list of our document states
16:46:43 [ericP]: ... Last Calls, CRs, etc.
16:47:19 [ericP]: ... the draft already has a list of docs, but it would be nice if editors would update their versions
16:48:11 [ericP]: ... ivan will want to see this done when he gets back from bejing
16:51:04 [ericP]: ACTION: ericP to update extension request with Turtle publication dates
16:51:04 [trackbot]: Created ACTION-225 - Update extension request with Turtle publication dates [on Eric Prud'hommeaux - due 2013-01-30].
16:52:28 [cygri]: q+
16:52:29 [ericP]: davidwood: we've been waiting for semantics and concepts to align
16:52:46 [ericP]: ... we spent two years getting consensus
16:52:54 [ericP]: ... now that we have that, they should roll out quickly
16:53:12 [ericP]: cygri: and having consensus, the editorial changes are minimal
16:53:16 [davidwood]: ack cygri
16:53:29 [ericP]: PatH: in the Semantics docs, the changes are deletions
