The document Abstract and Status sections

Abstract:

Linked Data Notifications is a protocol that describes how servers (receivers) can have messages pushed to them by applications (senders), as well as how other applications (consumers) may retrieve those messages. Any resource can advertise a receiving endpoint (Inbox) for the messages. Messages are expressed in RDF, and can contain any data.

Self-review on (developing-specs checklist):

  • Language basics
    • Payload contents are left to implementor discretion, so associating languages overall or inline is described by the specs for the chosen syntax or vocabulary.
  • Defining language values - n/a
  • Declaring language at the resource level - n/a
  • Establishing the language of a content block - n/a
  • Establishing the language of inline runs - n/a
  • Text Direction basics
    • See language basics
  • Background information - n/a
  • Handling direction in markup - n/a
  • Choosing a definition of 'character' - n/a
  • Defining a Reference Processing Model
  • Including and excluding character ranges
  • Using the Private Use Area
  • Choosing character encodings
  • Identifying character encodings
  • Designing character escapes
  • Storing text
  • Specifying sort and search functionality
  • Defining 'string'
  • Indexing strings
  • Referencing the Unicode Standard
  • Typographic support
    • The spec defines an underlying protocol for moving data, rather than the user interfaces or interactions on the data, so this is n/a.
  • Local dates, times and formats
    • mostly n/a re: payload, but maybe we should add a note about notifications containing date information containing appropriate timezone stuff etc?
  • Markup - Defining elements and attributes - n/a
  • Defining resource identifiers
    • Receivers are in charge of generating URLs for new notifications, not sure if we need to mention IRIs?
  • Providing for content negotiation based on language
  • Plain text support - n/a
  • ​Identifiers should be case-sensitive.
  • [ Request for review]

Implementations

Some of these implementations are tested or known to work per spec. However, they haven't gone through the official tests suite yet (as of 2016-10-18, pending the tests suite itself). Implementation reports will follow. Refer to https://github.com/w3c/ldn/blob/master/implementations/readme.md for most up to date version of this list.
