They are mapped on the RDF 1.1 and SPARQL 1.1 specs, so it make sense. 17:11:52 q+ 17:12:01 ack me 17:12:02 ... Also the CG report is built as a "patch" of those existing specifications. 17:12:30 gkellogg: it makes sense to keep the recommentations -- if someone mentions the Turtle spec, it has to still be there 17:13:02 ora: how do we proceed to create a new version of each spec? 17:13:08 q+ 17:13:13 ack ora 17:13:17 ... do they all have to go through the heavy process of being updated? 17:13:20 q+ 17:13:31 ack csarven 17:13:58 csarven: I don't think that al the specs will eventually need a next version. 17:14:21 ... Having 2 editors min per spec is a way to keep the work running, in my experience. 17:14:56 ... As for the release, any version that we have right now could be turned into an editor's draft. 17:15:09 ... The FIrst Public Working Draft is not expected to be already mature. 17:15:15 q+ 17:15:37 ... This is just the version that we are starting with. 17:15:41 ack TallTed 17:16:02 TallTed: unfortunately, I think that all the documents need to be updated as a batch. 17:16:12 q+ 17:16:23 ... SPARQL 1.1 is aligned with RDF 1.0, and there are similar disconnections in the stack of documents. 17:16:36 ... This is causing problems in the real world. 17:16:48 ... We have the power to fix this, we should. 17:17:20 ... It might need that we call them 2.0 rather than 1.2, as there will be breaking changes. 17:17:23 q+ 17:17:25 q- 17:17:25 ack pchampin 17:17:42 ack ora 17:17:43 q+ 17:17:45 pchampin: +1 to csarven and TallTed 17:18:03 q+ 17:18:20 ack ktk 17:18:22 q+ to note that the charter says we'll roll editorial errata into the new specs. 17:18:26 ora: I'm not opposed to that, but my worry is that there will be demands to update other parts of these documents, that are not related to RDF-star. 17:18:48 I think that pandora's box is already open, and pretending that it's opened at the back (where we can't see) will do no-one any favors in the end. 17:18:55 q+ 17:19:04 ack olaf 17:19:05 ktk: what would be the "RDF-star spec" once we update all the other ones? 17:19:40 olaf: back to what csarven said earlier: I don't think it is as easy to start with the existing specs, 17:19:55 q? 17:19:58 ... because they are not using ReSpec, and we probably want to start with ReSpec documents. 17:20:05 ack gkellogg 17:20:05 I meant content-wise not formatting. 17:20:17 gkellogg: I believe they are in ReSpec, but a very old form of ReSpec. 17:20:32 ... We could automate the process. 17:20:56 ... Re 2.0 vs 1.2, I'm not aware of any breaking changes that the CG report introduces. 17:21:19 ... We will also need to include errata, one of them is important for the RCH WG (about canonical N-Quads). 17:21:48 ... Re the pressure to do new things: that would require us to update the charter. 17:22:08 ... We might accept to do that once the RDF-star part is ready, but not before. 17:22:18 ack gtw 17:22:18 gtw, you wanted to note that the charter says we'll roll editorial errata into the new specs. 17:23:26 gtw: agree with TallTed: once we are at updating the specs, we need to fix those inconsistencies 17:23:52 ack ora 17:23:52 ... It's important to find alignment in these specs as we are touching them. 17:24:14 gtw: some of that alignment falls under the charter item regarding addressing errata 17:24:28 ora: I like how the SPARQL spec and others are organized: overview, then a list of different specs 17:24:39 +1 to an overview document, and specs should probably refer to each other, as SPARQL does. 17:25:08 ... We should break up what lies ahed into parts; 17:25:12 q? 17:25:19 +q pubrules 17:25:19 ... then we may find out along the way that some of those parts are actually revisions of an existing spec 17:25:33 -q 17:25:53 q+ 17:25:57 ack pu 17:26:02 ack csarven 17:26:03 ack csarven 17:26:27 csarven: my point about editors drafts was about the content, not the formatting 17:26:43 https://www.w3.org/pubrules/doc 17:26:44 ... I believe that the editors drafts can be anything, even markdown. 17:26:54 ... The FPWD must abide by pubrules (link avove) 17:27:40 ... If the old spec use an old version of ReSpec, if it passes the rules, then that would be OK. 17:28:23 ... We are not even forced to use ReSpec, what matters is passing the pubrules. 17:28:56 q+ 17:28:56 ora: are there objections about using ReSpec? 17:28:59 q+ 17:29:12 ack gkellogg 17:29:28 gkellogg: I have a lot of experience with ReSpec 17:29:37 q+ different approaches to formatting and editorial preference considerations 17:30:02 q+ to mention formatting and editorial preference considerations 17:30:03 ... I can't see the files or mercurial, but my memory is that they are in the ReSpec format already. 17:30:28 ... It makes easy to validate the rules. 17:31:02 ... Also, a tool called PR-review is able to format a preview and a "diff" for every PR. 17:31:04 q+ 17:31:13 ack pchampin 17:31:27 Gregg, only for one doc per repo? 17:32:17 ack csarven 17:32:17 csarven, you wanted to mention formatting and editorial preference considerations 17:32:31 Yes, one doc per repo. So, an rdf-concepts repo, for example. 17:32:55 I see. Thx for the clarification. 17:33:33 csarven: in the Solid CG, the editors of each spec decide which tooling they want to use 17:34:03 q? 17:34:09 ... OTOH If you want different contributors to jump in easily, picking one tool for all the specs is helping. 17:34:10 http://www.w3.org/ns/spec 17:34:47 https://solidproject.org/TR/protocol 17:34:47 https://solidproject.org/ED/protocol 17:35:30 ... those are examples of Solid specs annotated as RDFa with the 'spec' ontology 17:36:10 ... each normative requirement has its own IRI, and a machine readable description 17:36:28 ... This is relatively new, not used in ReSpec and Bikeshed right now. 17:36:50 ... These annotation do not interfere with pubrules. 17:36:57 https://solid-contrib.github.io/specification-tests/coverage 17:37:12 ... They can be useful for describing test cases. 17:37:13 There are also respec tags for identifying tests associated with some normative statement. 17:37:32 ack ora 17:38:11 ora: trying to understand the spectrum of possiblity: we can use ReSpec together with those annotations? 17:38:18 csarven: yes 17:39:01 ora: I like the idea of these new tools, but I would suggest that we use one tool for all specs, and pick ReSpec. 17:39:09 +1 to picking one tool, and if docs are already in ReSpec, we should use that. 17:39:14 q+ 17:39:15 q+ 17:39:24 ack pchampin 17:39:29 q+ 17:41:57 ack gkellogg 17:42:00 pchampin: I can create a first "spec" repo 17:42:52 gkellogg: the naming convention is usually to use the short-name of the spec as the name of the repo 17:43:04 ack ktk 17:43:05 q+ 17:43:08 ... I can be part of the effort to migrate the existing specs 17:43:14 I think two specs are definitely going to be needed. So, IMHO, we may want to consider starting with two specs: RDF-star and SPARQL-star. 17:43:15 ... but that will need more people 17:43:39 ACTION: pchampin to create a firsr "spec" repo 17:43:40 Created https://github.com/w3c/rdf-star-wg-charter/issues/52 -> action 52 create a firsr "spec" repo (on ) due 8 Dec 2022 17:43:56 q- 17:44:05 ACTION: everybody to reflect on what they think is missing in the CG report 17:44:06 Created https://github.com/w3c/rdf-star-wg-charter/issues/53 -> action 53 reflect on what they think is missing in the CG report (on ) due 8 Dec 2022 17:44:08 maybe create an issue for this that people can chime in on. 17:44:12 Topic: scheduling 17:44:28 ora: I realized that once a month, I will have a conflict with this timeslot 17:44:48 q+ 17:45:00 ... this is not the end of the world, but if other people may want to change? 17:45:06 q+ 17:45:44 ack TallTed 17:45:49 TallTed: this timeslot is fine for me in general. 17:46:17 ... if we are going to look for something else, I suggest we use a Doodle poll of some kind. 17:46:21 ack gkellogg 17:46:25 ... Email discussions on this kind of questions go on forever. 17:46:42 q+ 17:46:51 gkellogg: I think we had a doodle pool, and this was the slot that came up. 17:47:11 ... Personally I could make do 1 or 2h later, but that's ok. 17:47:23 ack pchampin 17:47:53 The current schedule works perfectly for me (lunch time in US EST), but I can adjust if needed. 17:48:04 I'll have frequent though inconsistent conflicts if we move 1 or 2 hours earlier on Thursdays 17:48:42 pchampin: the doodle that we had was for the kick-off. Maybe it was convenient for some people that day, but not on a regular basis 17:48:47 q+ 17:49:06 ack csarven 17:49:19 ACTION: ktk to set up the doodle for the recurring time 17:49:20 Created https://github.com/w3c/rdf-star-wg-charter/issues/54 -> action 54 set up the doodle for the recurring time (on ) due 8 Dec 2022 17:49:59 q? 17:50:10 csarven: being based in Europe, this slot is ok for me because it does not conflict with my other meetings 17:50:39 ora: let's keep this time slot until the doodle pool gives its result 17:51:00 ... ideally, we can send it during the week, and discuss it next Thursday 17:51:40 ... I anticipate that as the group progresses, we might divide in task forces, 17:52:04 ... and the whole group will not need to meet every week. 17:53:01 olaf has left #rdf-star 17:54:17 previous meeting: https://www.w3.org/2022/11/17-rdf-star-minutes.html 17:54:36 exit 17:54:40 next meeting: https://www.w3.org/2022/12/08-rdf-star-minutes.html 17:54:46 RRSAgent, draft minutes 17:54:46 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2022/12/01-rdf-star-minutes.html pchampin 17:57:53 s/what is missing from the CG report/organization of the WG/ 17:58:31 RRSAgent, draft minutes 17:58:31 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2022/12/01-rdf-star-minutes.html pchampin 18:24:18 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 18:30:48 gkellogg_ has joined #rdf-star 18:41:24 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 18:50:24 gkellogg_ has joined #rdf-star 18:54:54 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 18:55:55 gkellogg_ has joined #rdf-star 19:00:16 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 19:01:18 gkellogg_ has joined #rdf-star 19:02:45 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 19:05:24 gkellogg_ has joined #rdf-star 19:21:53 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 19:46:02 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 19:58:52 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 20:03:21 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 20:07:09 gkellogg_ has joined #rdf-star 20:08:12 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 20:24:56 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 20:40:00 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 20:58:23 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 21:03:11 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 21:05:52 gkellogg_ has joined #rdf-star 21:07:04 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 21:15:09 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 21:24:54 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star 21:28:38 gkellogg_ has joined #rdf-star 21:33:25 gkellogg has joined #rdf-star
