My apologies for the confusion over Tuesday's meeting 15:05:57 bhyland: Sandro kindly called the vote 15:06:05 scribe: PhilA 15:06:10 scribeNick: PhilA 15:06:12 Frozen version of BP doc is    https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/gld/raw-file/4dbafa673d70/bp/index.html 15:06:41 bhyland: We had 17 or so votes. Mostly with +1, but some with fractions 15:07:02 bhyland: But a 0 from Dave Reynolds and a -1 from MakxDekkers 15:07:19 bhyland: Do we have any room to address MakxDekkers' concerns 15:08:37 sandro: I think so. Procedurally we can make changes as long as everyone's happy with them. The question is how can we assess that everyone's happy with them within the time frame we have 15:08:56 q+ 15:08:56 ... so if the changes discussed on this call are non-controversial then we should be OK 15:09:33 bhyland: I'll say on behalf of the editors that we'll make these changes. The suggestions are right, there's no push back on the changes proposed and we're happy to fix them 15:09:41 sandro: You mean in Makx's e-mail 15:09:45 bhyland: Yes 15:09:50 Makx 15:09:55 Makx's email http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-gld-wg/2013Dec/0093.html 15:10:01 bhyland: His and Dave Reynolds' concerned too 15:10:09 s/concerned/concerns/ 15:10:33 bhyland: Dave was questioning the 5 star scheme usage - and I agree 15:10:52 Dave Reynolds's email: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-gld-wg/2013Dec/0080.html 15:10:56 bhyland: He was questioning the word Web site - I didn't know what else to call it. OK# 15:11:19 bhyland: He had other concerns with which I don't disagree 15:11:32 sandro: Several people talked about the 5 star - how do you plan to address that? 15:11:47 sandro: I heard people being unhappy with 'diluting the 5 star brand' 15:12:15 bhyland: I'm happy to delete it altogether as long as there's a link to the 5 star system in the glossary then I'm happy to have it out of the BP doc 15:12:36 sandro: Anyone else? 15:12:40 +1 for removing it 15:12:49 sandro: My inclination is just to remove it but it's not a show stopper for me 15:13:15 https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/gld/raw-file/4dbafa673d70/bp/index.html#VOCABULARIES 15:13:24 scroll down a bit to the "Vocabulary Creation" 15:13:28 section 15:13:34 q- 15:14:05 MakxDekkers: I had 3 major points. 15:14:31 ... in section 3 it says that the doc will highlight how LD modelling differs from other formats - but then it doesn't 15:14:40 ... so either that needs to be removed or we need to add what it says 15:15:12 bhyland: I think step N needs to be in the BP doc. I'm disappointed that I didn't I didn't add more on that. My preference is to put in another paragraph 15:15:39 .... I think there should be a paragraph there. I think there was some language that got cut out. So I want to propose some non-controversial language 15:15:46 ... I'd like the opportunity to put it back in 15:16:00 ... but I don't want to upset anyone at this stage 15:16:13 ... but I think I can write something there that's not controversial 15:16:26 sandro: Do you think you have that para written somewhere? 15:16:37 bhyland: No, but I can follow up directly after the call 15:16:57 bhyland: I don't want to start searching around for the old version that has it 15:17:34 MakxDekkers: The second part is under provide basic metadata - the way it's formulated now, it sort of says that you must give those descriptors but they're not all always relevant 15:18:02 ... I also know from experience that not all of things are always available or relevant. My proposal is to say 'may include' not must 15:18:14 ... and MAY, not SHOULD 15:18:30 bhyland: So better qualification 15:19:24 I don't see the SHOULD here "When modeling Linked Data, it is a best practice to provide basic metadata, including MIME type, publishing organization and/or agency, creation date, modification date, version, frequency of updates, contact email for the data steward(s). In subsequent sections, further guidance on the use of vocabularies, as well as a vocabulary "checklist" are provided as further informative guidance as they play a key role in the Linked Dat[CUT] 15:19:30 bhyland: This is a problem in real life is that agencies overlook this. I don't think using MAY not SHOULD will change behaviour. Some of those things get missed when they really shouldn't be optional 15:19:38 Am I missing something? 15:20:05 MakxDekkers: The first argument is that you have some resources where those things don't exist. For e.g. I don't get updated 15:20:20 MakxDekkers: The implication is a MUST - and it's context-dependent 15:20:36 ... the basic metadata is different for differnet kinds of resource 15:20:49 bhyland: How about we say 'if it is available, one may include' 15:21:05 "… in can be helpful to include…"? 15:21:10 s/in/it 15:21:11 MakxDekkers: Say it as you like as long as people who read this afresh don't think that they MUST provide these descriptiors 15:21:46 MakxDekkers: And in section 8 - that's a show stopper for me. It really should say follow your nose 15:21:55 bhyland: I agree completely. That was an oversight. it must be in there 15:21:57 s/descriptiors/descriptors 15:22:49 MakxDekkers: And then for consistency with DCAT - you should mention the Loc URI sets. I like Lexvo but it's maintained by one person. I'd be happy to keep it, but the LoC URI set is the most authoritative for this kind of info 15:23:07 PhilA: MakxDekkers - LoC and not EUPO NAL?? 15:23:42 bhyland: I don't think we should link to a one person project 15:23:44 q? 15:23:49 bhyland: Any other opinions about this? 15:24:20 sandro: I'm not familiar with Lexvo, but yes, we should link to LoC 15:24:43 bhyland: Thank you - I will go back and re-read your past messages. I need to do that 15:24:45 q+
