[Round of introductions]
<VladimirAlexiev> 3 people already expressed interest in Rules, and 2 in Compact
<VladimirAlexiev> role of SHACL as application profile: to describe the connection between N ontologies being used together
<VladimirAlexiev> https://github.com/w3c-cg/awesome-semantic-shapes is a list of implementations of SHACL and SHEX and related things (eg shape induction tools, generating stuff from SHACL, etc)
Nick: the WG works in public, so people can follow the work even if they don't participate
<nicholascar> Charter: https://www.w3.org/2024/12/data-shapes.html
Nick: deliverables are SHACL 1.2
Core and SPARQL Extensions, in the first phase
... Holger has started moving those documents
Holger: The content is basically the same as the CG drafts
Nick: We can start editing right away. Holger did volunteer. We need additional 1 or 2 co-editors for each spec
Gregg: I understand that the charter includes RDF 1.2 features
Holger: every feature enhancement
request should go in an issue in GH
... we have been cautious not to break previous version
<betehess> SHACL 1.2 can only be touched in Phase 1?
Holger: other features can be added later
<AndyS> Same Q as betehess
AlexB: can we go back to SHACL 1.2 after phase 1?
Nick: we'd like to have Core finished before we can really work on additional specs
<VladimirAlexiev> @gkellogg I also asked about "shacl on graphs" and Nick said "can be handled in the other deliverables. https://github.com/w3c-cg/awesome-semantic-shapes/tree/VladimirAlexiev-patch-1#specifications has a section "SHACL on graphs" that lists some related things (we should merge it to https://github.com/w3c-cg/awesome-semantic-shapes pretty soon).
<VladimirAlexiev> You're welcome to add approaches there!
Nick: the intent is to see good progress on the first 2 deliverables
<Zakim> AndyS, you wanted to ask about email vs GH issues discussions
AndyS: I'm not advocating for one or the other
Nick: I'd favor GH issues
Eliana: let's try to keep things in GH
<VladimirAlexiev> +1 for github issues vs email!
<ajnelson-nist> If we choose to use just the one GitHub repository, perhaps Issue tags might be sufficient for organization. Some Issues might be cross-topic naturally.
Carine: Some groups have 1 repo/spec, others all their specs in 1 repo. Only 1 repo makes it easier for issues that impact several documents
Nick: Let's keep 1 repo for the
moment
... (going through the other specs in the charter)
... SHACL 1.2 Inferencing Rules, SHACL 1.2 Profiling, SHACL 1.2
Compact Syntax and SHACL 1.2 User Interfaces
Next WG meeting will be in 2 weeks, but chairs and staff meet next week, so if you're interested in editing, get in touch with us preferably before next monday.
<simonstey> I'm interested in editing the Inferencing Rules Spec.
<betehess> Not sure I like the idea of multiple meeting times...
