BP Doc

deirdrelee: about teh BP document

<deirdrelee> Caroline_: thanks to everyone, there were a lot of meetings and mail exchanges that helped the doc a lot

https://www.w3.org/2013/dwbp/wiki/Comments_to_be_considered_in_the_last_call_working_draft

<deirdrelee> ... regarding the table here on comments to be considered, we started this thinking there would only be a couple, but now it's huge

<deirdrelee> ... we sent an email yesterday with all the commits we did, the resolved updates in the document

<phila> -> w3c.github.io/dwbp/bp.html Lastest editors' draft

<deirdrelee> ... i don't know if you had a chance to take a look

<deirdrelee> BernadetteLoscio: in the column of the table, we have resolution/implementation

<deirdrelee> ... some are in red because they have not been implemented yet or have been partially resolution

<deirdrelee> ... we made a lot of progress. for the comments we resolved, there is a commit for each comment

<scribe> scribe: Caroline_

deirdrelee: is there any big change in terms of BP being added or removed?

BernadetteLoscio: the biggest changes are on the data vocabulary section
... the 2 BPs about reuse vocabs and standardized terms were merged

<scribe> ... new they became BP 15

UNKNOWN_SPEAKER: on data preservation section Phil did a review and changed some of the BPs
... maybe Phila could talk about it
... we also had changes on usage and use terms

<BernadetteLoscio> http://w3c.github.io/dwbp/bp.html#Reuse

UNKNOWN_SPEAKER: we proposed with annette_g and ericstephan to write "republication'
... on the section http://w3c.github.io/dwbp/bp.html#Reuse

<phila> Subtitles

<phila> Intended Outcomes

UNKNOWN_SPEAKER: annette_g and phila worked on subtitles

<gatemezi> It's the first time I see the use of the term "republication" in a doc on reusing data

UNKNOWN_SPEAKER: we can discuss the API
... we need some help with the BP access real time

table: https://www.w3.org/2013/dwbp/wiki/Comments_to_be_considered_in_the_last_call_working_draft items 43 and 58
... the BP is the one bellow

<BernadetteLoscio> http://w3c.github.io/dwbp/bp.html#AccessRealTime

table: we had some discussions about it with annette_g

we need some help with the approach to implementation and the example

scribe: to improve the approach to implementation and the example

<annette_g> I think we were hoping to find someone with experience with streaming

PWinstanley: I will take a look on the comments
... it is the BP ericstephan and I did
... we have loads of information on that

<annette_g> I can help

BernadetteLoscio: annette_g would you have time to talk about it?

annette_g: yes

ericstephan: I haven't had a chance to look at those comments yet
... I'd like to help

annette_g: the things we need help with was the idea of streaming

<ericstephan> I am working with streaming data

annette_g: it is a point about real time data

deirdrelee: ericstephan, PWinstanley and annette_g can discuss that

<annette_g> yay Eric!

BernadetteLoscio: thank you

<ericstephan> and time series databases that collect streaming data (influxdb)

<laufer> In think streaming is different from real time data

:)

BernadetteLoscio: about the API documentation
... item comments bellow

<gatemezi> Hmmm.. because you can also have real time streaming data ...

<BernadetteLoscio> , 45, 46 and 61

BernadetteLoscio: there are mainly about the examples

<laufer> We can have a video stream...

<BernadetteLoscio> http://w3c.github.io/dwbp/bp.html#documentYourAPI

BernadetteLoscio: because the examples are related to geospatial data

<laufer> it is different of an array of sensor information published in real time

<gatemezi> I suggest to have the definition in the glossary of the two terms

BernadetteLoscio: there is the link for the BP http://w3c.github.io/dwbp/bp.html#documentYourAPI
... about the examples

deirdrelee: you are looking for good examples that are not from the geospatial domain?

BernadetteLoscio: it would be nice if we had a real example
... we discussed that would be nice if we had an example of API that also shows the documentation

<laufer> https://arrayofthings.github.io/

deirdrelee: I should be able to help with that

<trackbot> Created ACTION-275 - Help with the example of bp http://w3c.github.io/dwbp/bp.html#documentyourapi [on Deirdre Lee - due 2016-05-06].

phila: this new data usa site is a visualization site , an app that would be a good example of gatemezi point
... it give us an example of reuse

<phila> -> DataUSA

<phila> DataUSA

annette_g: about the API

deirdrelee: if it is documentation about the API

annette_g: we were thinking for both
... if we build a API sample and check the documentation to see how it work

BernadetteLoscio: that would be good because we can also use the API as an example for other BPs

ericstephan: PWinstanley and I found that
... we could show an example using an API collectiong real time data

<gatemezi> Cool that DataUSA phila

ericstephan: I wrote a HTML form useing a DWBP example
... I put in our repository

<ericstephan> dwbp-realtime-example.html

ericstephan: just to let eveyone know

deirdrelee: I will look at that

<laufer> maybe this could help - http://www.markus-lanthaler.com/hydra/

<newton> @phila I spend some time trying to find a way of solve that issue with the fragment urls on the dwbp-example and I did it: http://w3c.github.io/dwbp/dwbp-example.html#dataset-structural-metadata

BernadetteLoscio: it would be nice if it is using the same example we have about transports

ericstephan: we try to build about bus crossing
... we tried to came back to the bus scenario

deirdrelee: BernadetteLoscio and I will take a look on that

<ericstephan> yes that's fine

I can take a look also :)

<ericstephan> I just wanted you to know if helpful

<Zakim> phila, you wanted to ask if the API could be functional

phila: do you want to have a function API?
... it would be as simple as possible

<ericstephan> javascript with a json object in the html

<BernadetteLoscio> I like the idea :)

phila: a real function API for fictional buses

ericstephan: when we talked about it a couple of weeks back people said that we shouldn't do something that might desapear

<ericstephan> +1 phila

phila: if we create a bus thing the API could be a javascript code in the doc

ericstephan: was +1 to phila

newton: I like the idea of doing an API
... I have concerns if someone is reading the document that person could think that it is an example of doing an API
... we just want to show that API working
... not an example of how to do an API

<annette_g> The data wouldn't have to really change

<gatemezi> FYI, I really like the way at southampton here http://data.southampton.ac.uk/datasets.html, and the way they describe catalogs and apps. Maybe could be used as implementation of some BPs?

<ericstephan> @annette_g I liked your idea about swagger to document an API

BernadetteLoscio: if we make this clear on the text it wouldn't be a problem

<annette_g> I think Swagger will be the most complex part of it

deirdrelee: I see the potential problem there

<laufer> Maybe we can use Hydra Core Vocabulary to document the API (A Vocabulary for Hypermedia-Driven Web APIs)...

deirdrelee: one thing is the API and another is the documentation
... BP 23 or 24 show that
... a guideline could be more of what newton was talking about
... if we do provide an API we could point out why approaching this way or another is good

BernadetteLoscio: I agree

<annette_g> we do have text about such things, but we need an example

BernadetteLoscio: for making an API I think we discussed that we shouldn't give guidelines on how to build APIs
... we should be more careful about it

<ericstephan> that's a good point BernadetteLoscio

BernadetteLoscio: it is about frameworks to help building API

<gatemezi> +1 to BernadetteLoscio point

BernadetteLoscio: it would be nice to have a real API
... the focus should be how to access the data using an API instead of building an API

deirdrelee: to enhance the examples and incorporate some of the things we discussed today

BernadetteLoscio: about the intended outcomes

<BernadetteLoscio> http://w3c.github.io/dwbp/bp.html#LocaleParametersMetadata

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qAX-nW2lditnyYt0MQdK0Jc-9IflWbcHI-yagT-EfA8/edit#gid=0

phila: my motivations to write that way was that we agreed that we wouldn't use "machine should be this"
... no should or must added

annette_g: I wasn't sure if we should start with "that" or "to"

phila: the subject of the sentenced is the intended outcome

<gatemezi> I was wondering why the links of the BPs do not deref to the specific part in the doc...Is it a browser issue or just me having this "small issue"?

annette_g: just writing it in future tense might solve it
... some of them are already in future tense

BernadetteLoscio: before we sent a message that we were using the future
... we had comments saying that should be in the present

<phila> Current To enable data consumers to know that data that is referred to from the current dataset is unavailable or only available under different conditions.

<ericstephan> back to the future?

phila: let's take this example
... changing that to:

<phila> Consumers will know that data that is referred to from the current dataset is unavailable or only available under different conditions.

<ericstephan> Just be consistent imo

BernadetteLoscio: if you don't mind you may change

phila: I will do it

action phila to change all the phrases of intedend outcomes to present. E.g. Consumers will know that data that is referred to from the current dataset is unavailable or only available under different conditions.

<trackbot> Created ACTION-277 - Change all the phrases of intedend outcomes to present. e.g. consumers will know that data that is referred to from the current dataset is unavailable or only available under different conditions. [on Phil Archer - due 2016-05-06].

BernadetteLoscio: we still have the BPs about feedback and up to date access, which we will work with annette_g
... it was a great team work this week
... we are really happy. Thank you everybody for the contributions!

<annette_g> Eds are really great, too!

<gatemezi> Yes, great Eds!

<phila> We're very close to a documetn freeze

BernadetteLoscio: we will try to finish everything and as soon we finish this I we will freeze the document
... so the WG participants can review the changes

<phila> Time is very tight

BernadetteLoscio: in the beggining of next week we might finish it

deirdrelee: I will try to get back on Tuesday

BernadetteLoscio: as soon as we finish it we will let the group know
... it is important to keep in mind that we shouldn't do big changes after Monday
... if anyone has a big change to make, please do it before Monday
... you can go to the commit that is on the table https://www.w3.org/2013/dwbp/wiki/Comments_to_be_considered_in_the_last_call_working_draft and see the changes

deirdrelee: you prefer to release the next working draft and then the final one?

antoine: yes
... when it is ready to last call we are willing to publish as a working draft

riccardoAlbertoni: we ask the group to guve us feedback about the document
... about editorial things and the way we are editing it

deirdrelee: it is good to dedicate complete meeting on that as all

<phila> phila: Just to say thank you to Antoine and Riccardo for all their continuing work. The WG should indeed give the work some proper attention.

deirdrelee: we can dedicate a complete Friday to DWV and DUV

phila: thank you both of you

deirdrelee: we will have to vote to publish it as a final working note
... we need to be aware of what has been made
... is our responsability to keep up with it as well

<ericstephan> https://www.force11.org/meetings/force2016

ericstephan: I did go to the force11 conference last week

<ericstephan> https://figshare.com/articles/Stephan_DUV_Poster_Force2016_pdf/3179935

DUV

ericstephan: I had a conversation with ??

<ericstephan> https://www.w3.org/community/scholarlyhtml/

ericstephan: it is a very interesting network in terms of metadata this https://www.w3.org/community/scholarlyhtml/
... there are good contributions to be made

<phila> One of the key people in that CG as well as Peter M-R is Robin Berjon, until recently the HTML editor

ericstephan: they are not using SPARQL, they are using JSON-LD

<ericstephan> Compliance to Best Practices Metadata #1, #2, #4, Data Licensing #5 Identifiers #10, #12, Vocabularies #15, #16

ericstephan: I do want to have that on the data usage vocab
... maybe we can have on both vocabs
... some of the editing comments BernadetteLoscio provided we are working on that

deirdrelee: between now and the final working note you will put out another working draft?

ericstephan: yes

deirdrelee: now to 3 weeks we can freeze and vote

<phila> So we're looking at big voting session on 20 May?

deirdrelee: then we can move on to the final working note

<ericstephan> When can the DUV have Berna back? :-)

<annette_g> A truly impressive portion of that big table has been resolved.

deirdrelee: by next week we try to freeze and see how it goes

<BernadetteLoscio> soon Eric ;)

<ericstephan> great :-)

yes, annette_g! :) thank you so much for all you help!

phila: I agree but May 20 is already late in our schedule

<BernadetteLoscio> Annette, and they are implemented already ;)

phila: I think May 20 is the latest we have

<ericstephan> Caroline_ I meant to say that SPAR ontologies not sparql

<annette_g> bye all!

deirdrelee: talk to you all next week

<riccardoAlbertoni> thanks .. bye

<laufer> bye... nice...

thank you ericstephan for this correction :)

<gatemezi> Ciao!
