<IanWilson> ACTION: Marc to keep time schedule - due 2006.6.19 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2008/06/19-emotion-minutes.html#action01]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-17 - keep time schedule [on Marc Schröder - due 2008-06-19].
<IanWilson> Marc asks whether we agree that XML is the format we should progress with
<IanWilson> Ian says connection to other groups (who seem to all be using XML) will be very difficult unless we do not use XML
<IanWilson> Andy says Commercial organizations will have difficulty accepting anything but XML
<IanWilson> Bill says that OWL has flexibility
<felix> I vote for using XML cause I think it meets the requirements fair enough (gut feeling) and is known much wider than OWL which will help spreading the use
<IanWilson> Bill has shown with his example (http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/billj/custom-descriptor-challenge/) OWL can be use sub classes as our specification calls for

<IanWilson> After a vote (Bill abstention due to lack of XML knowledge) we agree to move forward with XML as our format of choice
<marc> this link contains a set of links to things from existing markup languages that we could build upon
<IanWilson> After surveying various other current XML specifications points made are that they are complimentary to what we are trying to do
<IanWilson> Marc notes that we are not trying to redefine existing language features in our languages
<IanWilson> Instead we could look at how they have already solved problems we need to solve and perhaps use their solutions or be inspired by them
<marc> next item
<marc> e.g. "simple cases should look simple"
<marc> ... or "structure should be explicit enough to avoid confusion"
<IanWilson> Here is a more general set of best practices : http://www.xfront.com/BestPracticesHomepage.html
<IanWilson> Marc notes that apparently a first working draft does not contain an XML schema
<IanWilson> so we should focus our discussions on syntax
<IanWilson> Andy says we should focus on incorporating other languages as much as possible
<IanWilson> Ian says perhaps we can bias our representation towards being explicit
<IanWilson> Bill asks to clarify the definition of "explicit" and "implicit"
<IanWilson> Marc explains about EARLs implicit structure
<IanWilson> Felix mentions that we have already agreed some of the points

<IanWilson> Marc asks how other would like to follow the discussions
<IanWilson> Bill would like to follow the discussions
<IanWilson> Ian says that the dynamics are different between group and private communicatuions
