The SPARQL Maintenance (EXISTS) Community Group has been proposed by Andy Seaborne:<\/p>\n
The “SPARQL Maintenance (EXISTS)” Community Group is a forum to discuss and address problems with the “EXISTS” feature in SPARQL 1.1.<\/p>\n
The SPARQL 1.1 suite of specifications<\/a> and the SPARQL 1.1 test suite<\/a> are frozen. A process exists to record errata and that will be one input to any working group chartered to revise SPARQL.<\/p>\n In the meantime, SPARQL is being used in real-work systems in industry and public-sector. The user community expects a high degree of conformance across implementations.<\/p>\n The EXISTS feature has been found to be problematic. This feature is used by the RDF Data Shapes Working Group<\/a>.<\/p>\n This community group will create CG Notes and accompanying test suites to describe one or more improvements with an emphasis on maintaining compatibility.<\/p>\n This group is not producing specifications.<\/p>\n Any tests produced by the will submitted to the RDF Test Suite Curation CG<\/a> for long-term stewardship.<\/p>\n You are invited to support the creation of this group<\/a>. Once the group has a total of five supporters, it will be launched and people can join to begin work. In order to support the group, you will need a W3C account<\/a>.<\/p>\n Once launched, the group will no longer be listed as “proposed”; it will be in the list of current groups<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please send us email on site-comments@w3.org<\/a><\/p>\n Thank you, The SPARQL Maintenance (EXISTS) Community Group has been proposed by Andy Seaborne: The “SPARQL Maintenance (EXISTS)” Community Group is a forum to discuss and address problems with the “EXISTS” feature in SPARQL 1.1.
