Yes, and I'm putting this resolution forward to feed the fresh discussion, and as a proposal to resolve the issue: PROPOSAL1: the notion informally known as "g-box" will be called "graph container". Alternative: PROPOSAL2: the notion informally known as "g-box" will be called "RDF container". Alternative (cf. Kingsley's email on the topic): PROPOSAL3: the notion informally known as "g-box" will be called "RDF document". Alternative (cf. Kingsley's other email on the topic): PROPOSAL3: the notion informally known as "g-box" will be called "RDF source". Personal vote: -1 for RDF document. Mostly shrug on any of the remaining 3 options but a slight preference for one of the first 2 choices. --AZ Le 09/11/2012 12:42, Richard Cyganiak a écrit : > On 9 Nov 2012, at 11:14, Antoine Zimmermann wrote: >> We had a formal resolution about the names of the g-stuff: >> >> http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/meeting/2011-10-12#resolution_1 > > I note that this WG has consistently ignored that resolution for more > than a year, and kept using the term g-box.
