Thema classification does not go beyond WWII 15:22:45 Bill_Kasdorf: When within a domain, require details of that level 15:23:40 ...this gets to a separate point - I don't think we should get into vocabularies, other than providing the mechanism for creating them 15:23:52 ...we can provide keywording 15:23:54 q- 15:24:00 ack ivan 15:24:14 ...some people wish for OWP to do things it can already do 15:24:46 ...Some people want ONIX-lite, but what parts are of interest? 15:25:29 ivan: we have terminology problems among communities 15:25:45 ...schema.org contains main classes and properties 15:26:04 ...others contain classifications 15:26:37 http://blog.schema.org/2012/05/schemaorg-markup-for-external-lists.html 15:26:38 ...the approach of schema.org is to accept agreed upon but external terms. They do not want to standardize that 15:27:46 ...this link points to a description of what schema.org will accept in a specific circumstance, in this case, wikipedia URIs 15:28:53 ...what we need to agree upon is what schema.org will accept - what classes and properties, allowing for volatility within the specification to which they point 15:29:25 q+ 15:29:31 ack TimCole 15:30:15 Bill_Kasdorf: there are so many different sides to publishing, and not all needs are aligned 15:31:18 Tim: another issue with things like ONIX, in addition to volatility, is the way that they are used 15:31:42 ...every publisher uses it differently - not a standardization success 15:32:05 ...the library world has attempted to add missing tags, such as imprint 15:32:05 ?+ 15:32:41 q+ 15:33:17 Bill_Kasdorf: Recipients of metadata would like to see consistency, and publishers would like to see recipients standardize implementation 15:33:31 q+ 15:34:25 liza: is standardizing thema? is a recommendation for schema within scope of this group? 15:35:35 ack philm 15:37:05 philm: agree that using vocabularies from different areas might be a good idea. ONIX sends a message with a lot of useful data, but some of it is not useful to web 15:37:44 ...GS1 has useful info, but it doesn't have contributor element, so they used BISG best practices for ONIX 15:38:17 ...We also need to look at different audiences. STM audience and general audience are going to be very different. 15:38:37 ack ljnd 15:38:41 ...Trade content is not often online, but STM content is often online. 15:39:08 ljdn: Flexibility of allowing different vocabularies, but I would argue that trade books are not online YET 15:39:23 +1 Laura 15:39:29 +1000 Laura 15:39:32 ...there may be a case for search engines to index the structure vocab of book for search 15:39:38 from the EPub blog a comment on about sufficiency of ONIX contributor codes and Library of Congress MARC relator codes for comic books: https://code.google.com/p/epub-revision/issues/detail?id=23 15:40:03 Well, it's a real thing we do at Safari 15:40:04 ...probably want to web-enable books, even if do not sell them as online books 15:40:33 ...amazon has categories, B&N has categories, we should make categories 15:41:03 liza: i get nervous when i hear ONIX-lite, because it sounds like we are creating a new standard and stepping on ONIX toes 15:41:22 Tzviya, not make caegories, just be aware that the publisher is not solely in control of describing their own books 15:41:28 Vendors can as well 15:41:35 s/caegories/categories/ 15:41:36 q+ 15:41:40 ...but it makes sense to take a subset of currently available specs 15:42:52 Bill_Kasdorf: There is a medical vocab called UMFLS (?) with 1 mil concepts, maintained by NIH - one slice of STM 15:43:02 q+ 15:43:23 s/UMFLS/UMLS/ 15:43:51 ...issues arising, like subject, contributor, rights. Being able to base this on existing standards - point to an existing code list 15:44:13 ack brady_duga 15:44:38 ...keywords is also important - author may not know what BISAC is, but can list keywords 15:45:23 brady-duga: a little nervous about putting just metadata and no data on internet, people want to find information, not just metadata when they search 15:45:42 ack Julie 15:46:00 liza: agree, but I think it's reasonable for a search to lead to where can find information, not the actual info 15:46:06 Sorry - I am in the portion of my trip when the call drops, so I can't really respond more. 15:46:54 +1 to Julie, this is the start 15:46:56 julie: re: onix-lite concerns: BISG committee looking at schema.org and first identifying where connections already exist 15:47:11 ...there are probably more holes than there are connections 15:47:23 q+ 15:48:51 ...we may be able to identify where current schema.org elements mimic ONIX. i.e. we may not have to create ONIX-lite. 15:49:18 Bill_Kasdorf: it may be a recommendation of how to include ONIX info in schema.org. 15:49:37 liza: this group could then write rec of HOW to include the info and how to process 15:50:16 +q 15:50:18 ack ivan 15:50:18 Bill_Kasdorf: we have been focusing on schema.org. Is there anything else from OWP that we should look at? 15:51:00 ivan: reinforce what Julie said: the first thing to do is look at existing vocabularies in schema.org to see if the exist, then add deltas 15:51:27 -aaff 15:52:11 ...to answer Bill's question, in core OWP specs, there are no major tech change or improvement to implement 15:52:22 ...we can act as go-between 15:52:48 ack gcapiel 15:53:35 gcapiel: process of getting new properties into schema.org is tricky and not completely transparent. Still a good idea, but there are other ways to do it 15:54:00 ...there are other vocabularies like microdata and RDFa 15:54:05 -duga 15:54:23 ...the challenge is what search engines will pick it up 15:55:14 Ivan: the first thing to do is talk to the people involved and sit down with people who represent this industry (BISG or others) 15:55:24 ...and make our intentions clear 15:55:37 liza: is this an action item for ivan? 15:55:58 Ivan: it might not be for this group, might be appropriate for BISG 15:56:42 dauwhe has joined #dpub 15:57:21 Ivan: would need closer rep from Editeur if we invite schema.org reps to a meeting 15:58:08 Bill_Kasdorf: this group has a strong book bias, but this is far-reaching 15:58:11 q+ 15:58:16 ack tzviya 15:59:11 tzviya: I thought we had agreed to narrow scope to books because that is who the representation is and we had to narrow it down 15:59:43 Ivan: if we take an exercise like ONIX, it helps to start with a smaller unit like books 16:00:20 ...I am happy to invite reps from schema.org, but I don't want to step on BISG's toes 16:00:28 +q 16:00:56 Julie: BISG would be interested in making sure that our work is checked over by schema.org and we have a stamp of approval 16:01:03 ack TimCole 16:01:45 TimCole: there is also a CG looking at bibliographic extensions (BibEx).
