Should we set up meeting with Philippe circa July 17? 20:11:13 q- 20:11:18 Dave: Partial agenda for DCAT meeting tomorrow. 20:11:36 ... Behind on reviewing comments. Do not know what we might 20:11:44 SCRIBE JUST LOST AUDIO 20:12:03 scribenick: kcoyle 20:12:16 q+ 20:12:26 DaveBrowning: may need more time before meeting with philippe 20:12:33 +1 to have more time 20:12:45 ... there is work to be done before 20:13:15 +q 20:13:18 ... question for tomorrow's meeting: is what we have to concern ourselves with is the blackout period around TPAC? 20:13:34 PWinstanley: I'll ask Philippe about that 20:13:47 ack riccardoAlbertoni 20:14:06 AndreaPerego has joined #dxwg 20:14:12 riccardoAlbertoni: agree that we need more time because of amount of feedback 20:14:20 present+ 20:14:25 ... need to do some planning 20:14:26 ack alejandra 20:14:38 alejandra: also agree to push meeting back 20:14:59 ... in DCAT group we don't have a way to connect unless Simon sets up a webex 20:15:15 ... since Simon isn't in the call do we have another option? 20:15:30 DaveBrowning: looks like the meeting is still scheduled on webex 20:15:45 RRSAgent, draft minutes v2 20:15:45 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2019/07/09-dxwg-minutes.html AndreaPerego 20:15:50 alejandra: is there an agenda? 20:16:05 RRSAgent, make logs world 20:16:09 RRSAgent, draft minutes v2 20:16:09 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2019/07/09-dxwg-minutes.html AndreaPerego 20:16:11 DaveBrowning: a draft agenda, yes. It's on the wiki 20:16:40 topic: Profile definition and new use case 20:17:05 RRSAgent, draft minutes v2 20:17:05 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2019/07/09-dxwg-minutes.html AndreaPerego 20:17:34 PWinstanley: lots of conversation so far. No one here today from S Hemisphere, but are there other comments? 20:17:37 q+ 20:17:42 ack aisaac 20:17:51 SCRIBE IS BACK 20:18:03 aisaac: I'd like to get rid of Rob's use case from the discussion 20:18:14 scribenick: tomB 20:18:25 Antoine: Notion of profiles that play different roles. 20:18:37 ... For the guidance and PROF vocabulary - centered around this notion. 20:18:58 Peter: You propose whether to accept the use case? 20:19:12 q+ 20:19:16 q+ 20:19:23 Can we add the link to the proposed UC here? 20:19:25 Antoine: It needs tidying. 20:19:25 ack annette_g 20:19:43 Annette: Just needs to have example added. 20:19:56 ... I could not vote for it in current form. 20:20:05 q+ 20:20:17 Peter: Propose that we include pending tidying up. 20:20:26 ... If we can agree it is something we can work on. 20:20:34 ... Otherwise still hanging around. 20:20:43 Annette: Oddities about how it is written 20:20:55 +1 Annette - needs more clarity 20:21:03 ack kcoyle 20:21:14 Proposed UC: https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/issues/978 20:21:41 Karen: More sceptical. Tautology here: specs that have certain qualities in them. 20:21:57 ... Am pretty sure there are existing profiles that could not be described this way. 20:22:20 ack aisaac 20:22:25 ... If not based on particular standard... A particular style of profiles. 20:22:41 q+ 20:22:48 Antoine: Maybe does not capture everything, but captures several cases we want to answer. 20:23:20 ... Terminological issues - essential problems around "specification roles" - needs to be cleaned. 20:23:33 ack kcoyle 20:23:40 ... Ready to accept that more work needed - more than "tidying up". 20:24:00 Karen: Someone will pick an example that meets this use case, but not examples that do not. 20:24:07 q+ 20:24:14 q+ 20:24:27 ack aisaac 20:24:42 ... One example is not enough - need broader view. Not universal enough to fit in our work. More like a long-tail sort of thing. Relevant for specific communities. 20:25:31 Antoine: Agree in theory - alot of what UC focuses on should not happen. We know this is not always be the case. Relevant to definition of specific component. No one-to-one re: roles. 20:25:34 q+ 20:26:02 ack AndreaPerego 20:26:03 ... Would hope we would not have to address the case of representation - confusing in real world - good to be ready. Would prefer Rob to elaborate. 20:26:52 "Documents that perform multiple roles, such as multiple discrete sets of requirements, suggestions etc need provide stable identifiers for each logical grouping of specifications." 20:27:01 Andrea: Unsure about this UC. What is missing is problem statement. There was some discussion on GH about multiple roles. But issue that derives from our view of profiles - that they have "roles" 20:27:18 ... But reader of UC document might have no clue what the problem is. 20:27:45 ack kcoyle 20:27:48 ... Difficult for people not involved in this discussion. 20:28:34 Karen: Posted (above): "documents that perform multiple roles" - and we all recognize that there may - "discrete sets of requirements" - "each logical grouping of specifications". 20:28:34 q+ 20:28:38 q+ 20:28:51 q+ 20:29:05 ... It is not a database but a specification document. 20:29:22 ... I don't like calling them roles. 20:29:55 ... The part about identifying different parts makes no sense. 20:30:19 ... Fine if you have grouped things this way, but what about DCAT? Must address. 20:30:26 ack AndreaPerego 20:31:16 Andrea: Fact that we have multiple roles - a matter of fact. Why do we need a UC? Or can we simply state it? 20:31:26 ack TomB 20:31:41 TomB: The more I hear about this UC the less I like it 20:32:17 ... it sounds to me like - I don't like the idea of looking at things as roles, and looking at a profile as though it has discrete sets of anything 20:32:37 ... I know that machine-ready profiles would have units 20:33:00 ... are we talking about what profiles *are* or on what they should be? 20:34:11 RRSAgent, draft minutes v2 20:34:11 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2019/07/09-dxwg-minutes.html AndreaPerego 20:34:19 q+ 20:34:22 ... This WG has yet to take a decision on whether to continue work on the profiles vocab. There are requirements for DCAT and CONNEG on what profiles *are* but the vocab is looking at what profiles *should be* - and we might not have the time for this 20:34:28 ack aisaac 20:35:09 q+ 20:35:17 Antoine: Re: what profiles should be - but we can accept a use case - hint that it is a possibility. 20:35:21 ack annette_g 20:35:58 Annette: This is helpful if we think of single documents that break into parts, but collection of expressions of profiles. 20:36:20 ... Someone might publish guidance: machine-readable + plain text + images... 20:36:36 ... When you have a collection of guidance along with machine-readable schema. 20:37:13 ... Feel like rather than saying "profiles" negotation, but "schema" negotiation - the machine-readable part. 20:37:53 ... We need to sort this out because it is important. Agreed definition that works would be a big contribution. 20:37:55 annette_g said it's not only about the machine-readable part (I really want this to appear as it's important ;-) ) 20:38:10 Peter: Caught up in words? Venn diagram approach better? 20:38:38 Annette: Everyone has pieces that they are important. 20:38:57 Peter: Enterprise Architecture has "viewpoints" - define specific VPs? 20:39:15 ack kcoyle 20:39:17 Annette: Approach this afresh. Agree on concepts before we agree on wording. 20:39:39 Karen: Can we put action on Rob or someone to make this profile-specific, not specification-specific. 20:39:41 q+ 20:39:52 ack aisaac 20:39:52 ... If it defines profiles, needs to be about profiles. 20:40:04 s/of single documents/not of single documents/ 20:40:37 so then it may be out of scope 20:40:46 Antoine: Reluctant to ask Rob to do this. Understand need for generality, but if profiles based on other things - but Rob suggesting something more general. 20:41:06 q+ 20:41:13 ... If we ask him to focus on profile. Thisis not about things based on other things. 20:41:22 ack kcoyle 20:41:30 q+ 20:41:54 ack aisaac 20:42:09 s/Thisis/This is/ 20:42:18 Karen: If it is not about profiles, it is out of scope. We are not about defining specifications. Could be useful to help clarify, but. 20:42:31 Antoine: Rob's use case applies to things that are []. 20:42:43 Karen: You say it applies to CONNEG but not DCAT? 20:43:05 Antoine: Depends on what we call profiles. GUIDANCE could have been about both points. 20:43:19 ... I see Rob's UC applying to CONNEG. 20:43:22 q+ 20:43:33 q+ 20:43:38 Peter: But only to the bit that applies to specifications about specifications - not atomic specs? 20:44:04 Antoine: No, because CONNEG does. 20:44:21 Karen: Labels of the use case are about "profiles". 20:44:58 Antoine: Then we need to clarify. But in description of UC, talks about things about other things. 20:44:59 q- 20:45:19 ack AndreaPerego 20:46:19 []: Sometimes we go around and around. When I see title of UC, assume it is about profiles. 20:46:48 s/[]/AndreaPerego 20:46:55 ... Still confused: not clear what we had decided about profiles. Just semantics, not syntax? As long as we do not clarify at this level, discussions never ending. 20:47:24 Peter: Talking in circles for half an hour. 20:47:37 ... We are still pretty confused about profiles. 20:47:41 q+ 20:48:12 ... I think we can park this. We have not yet decided what to do about PROF vocabulary. 20:48:13 ack TomB 20:49:39 RRSAgent, draft minutes v2 20:49:39 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2019/07/09-dxwg-minutes.html AndreaPerego 20:50:01 +1 to TomB 20:50:15 +1 the problem is that we can't agree on words... 20:50:23 proposed: to defer discussion of the UC and focus on definitions of profile as the *are now* for the conneg and dcat docs 20:50:38 s/the/they 20:50:49 +1 20:50:51 Peter: Propose to focus on definition of profile as they are now for CONNEG and DCAT (agreeing with Tom's point). 20:50:54 +1 20:50:56 +1 20:51:03 +1 20:51:03 +1 20:51:05 +1 20:51:11 +1 it's a pity but if it can help the discussion 20:51:26 q+ 20:51:26 +1 for now 20:51:44 q- 20:51:44 Peter: we need to recognize that time is running - we need to complete CONNEG and DCAT 20:51:58 q+ 20:52:28 ack aisaac 20:52:32 ... If we do that, will be in position to decide whether we need a Note - would be a pity not to nail it after all the work. 20:53:00 resolved: to defer discussion of the UC and focus on definitions of profile as the *are now* for the conneg and dcat docs 20:54:06 Antoine: Very much recognize problem. If we do not give it space, will resurface. 20:54:19 Peter: Clarify part w.r.t. roles. 20:54:38 Antoine: If we can be strict about not considering "roles"... 20:55:02 ... PROPOSE that we use Rob's UC to discuss what roles can be played with respect to specifications, and park issues there. 20:55:37 proposed: that use case #??? shall be used for discussions on the roles played by profile "representations" and that discussions about these matters should not interfere in other discussion spaces 20:55:52 +1 20:55:54 q+ 20:55:57 s/???/978 20:56:00 ack TomB 20:56:28 -1 if we call them "roles" 20:56:30 TomB: Are you saying that the discussion about the UC will continue, but on a separate track? 20:56:39 aisaac: yes 20:56:58 +1 20:57:00 +1 that the discussion be on a different track from defining "profile" for CONNEG and DCAT 20:57:09 +1 20:57:11 +1 20:57:14 +1 20:57:26 +1 20:58:03 Karen: I really need something more specific that "roles". 20:58:13 q+ 20:58:26 ack TomB 20:59:13 TomB: I also don't like the term 'role' but agreed with the essence of the proposal that it moves to a track that is separate from the conneg and dcat discussion of profiles 20:59:44 Karen: I would like to see the resolution change to say... 21:00:12 q+ 21:00:22 s/more specific that/more specific than/ 21:00:32 q- 21:00:37 q+ 21:00:39 q- 21:00:46 ... Rob does not use the word "role" here, in that sense. He talks about requirements - requirements embedded in documents. 21:01:19 ... I would like to see us talk about something other than "roles" - "functionalities"? Documents do not have roles - as a desirable. 21:01:42 Peter: You agree that this is only partly parked, and we can pull parts of out as needed. 21:01:58 Karen: Would like to have it wholly parked. I'm all for parking. 21:02:21 Peter: So where are we w.r.t. to Antoine's - pick at it if helpful for discussion - rather than totally parking. 21:02:52 +q 21:02:57 Karen: This idea that it is going to be used for discussions on "roles" - unclear how they fit into CONNEG and DCAT. 21:02:59 ack alejandra 21:03:33 Alejandra: [ scribe did not catch ] 21:04:21 alejandra said we maybe should have waited for Rob to discuss this 21:04:30 RRSAgent, draft minutes v2 21:04:30 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2019/07/09-dxwg-minutes.html AndreaPerego 21:04:44 Peter: We are clear on finishing requirements for CONNEG and DCAT - think we need to reject proposal until we have another discussion. 21:04:48 ... Antoine? 21:05:23 can we vote it saying we will change the word role 21:05:29 Antoine: Maybe something more precise next week? 21:05:53 Karen: Alejandra is right - we need to clarify with Rob how UC fits with CONNEG and DCAT. 21:06:10 Peter: We are parking this until clarify rel to CONNEG/DCAT 21:06:13 +1 21:06:15 Can we have a proposal? 21:06:16 +1 park until we clarify vis a vis conneg and dcat 21:06:57 Peter: We just park the resolution. Thank you all for a very engaging conversation. 21:07:11 ... It is bringing us closer to what we need for CONNEG and DCAT. 21:07:34 ... Hard to see wood for the trees, but at some point we will have to deliver. 21:07:47 q+ to ask when CONNEG will come up for its next transition 21:07:53 ack TomB 21:07:53 TomB, you wanted to ask when CONNEG will come up for its next transition 21:08:32 Peter: Will need to find out next week. 21:08:43 Thanks, bye 21:08:46 thanks all! 21:08:52 bye! 21:08:55 ...
