00:03:33 <mdupont> review?
00:03:38 <mdupont> like a lister?
00:05:09 <mea_culpa> ok
00:05:23 * mea_culpa is cleaning out the frige
00:20:36 <danbri_lap> ericP, still around?
00:21:03 <ericP> yup, t'sup ?
00:21:36 <danbri_lap> i'm trying to debug db again, i had a plan...
00:21:43 <danbri_lap> but i don't know enough sql.
00:22:25 <danbri_lap> idea was to write a query that checked to make sure each value in subject (or object, or predicate) column has a corresponding key/value pair in the lookups table...
00:22:58 <danbri_lap> select distinct subject from triples, resources where NOT resources.keyhash=subject
00:23:09 <danbri_lap> ...was what i had in mind, but that's not quite right.
00:23:12 <danbri_lap> any clues?

00:29:01 <ericP> oops, forgot about you
00:30:09 * danbri_lap pouts
00:30:34 <danbri_lap> i left some scribbles at end of http://esw.w3.org/topic/RubyRdfDatabaseSetup
00:30:47 <danbri_lap> ' Find me any numbers from 'triples' table that don't have a lookup in 'resources' (consistency concerns...). And vice-versa.'
00:31:07 <danbri_lap> seems like a useful sanity check to have
00:31:11 <ericP> SELECT triples.subject FROM triples LEFT OUTER JOIN resources ON triples.subject=resources.keyhash WHERE resources.keyhash IS NULL
00:31:39 <ericP> gotta run
00:31:44 * danbri_lap adds a 'distinct', found two suspects

01:31:33 <danbri_lap> no, separate issue... someone recommended it to me as an alternate sql engine worth supporting
01:32:06 * danbri_lap nearly finished w/ debugging... it was the uri hashing stuff fwiw

05:40:49 <DanC> are bitzi and musicbrains connected at all?
05:41:20 <deltab> mb uses bitzi's bitcollider hashes
05:41:20 * DanC is moving some songs from iTunes on a mac to his linux laptop; trying to do it in an RDF-happy way
05:42:07 <DanC> I've got python code grokking the itunes plist format now... so I can do stuff like pick out the filenames of all the tracks in some playlist
05:42:31 <DanC> ... and link them to the current directory (so that I can then scp them)
05:46:56 * DanC installs zinf
05:52:14 <eikeon> DanC: MusicBrainz has Python bindings to their musicbrainz library... from which it is pretty easy to write a script to start pulling down RDF for mp3s.
05:52:44 <DanC> cool.
05:54:50 * DanC noodles on best names for mp3/ogg files... something like a bitcollider hash, I suppose...
05:55:35 * eikeon ended up using the track id -- not very human readable... but that's what the metadata is for ;)
05:56:02 <DanC> track ids collide if you put a lot of files in the same place
05:56:05 <DanC> no?
05:57:04 <eikeon> I was assuming not... but may be wrong. #musicbrainz would know for sure.
05:57:43 <DanC> oh, I thought you meant like 1, 2, 3 for track 1 off this CD, track 2, and so on
05:58:03 * DanC digs zinf
05:58:40 <DanC> it magically figured out the song/artist name, even though I didn't preserve them in the filenames when I did the scp
05:58:56 <DanC> perhaps I have itunes to thank... maybe there's some ID3 stuff in there.
06:05:39 <eikeon> It might be finding them via musicbrainz and a TRM it calculates from the mp3. So the metadata need not even be in an ID3.
06:07:41 <DanC> ooh... cool... 'tip this artist' thingy in zinf
06:07:47 * DanC is doing DRD/DRM research
06:11:25 <DanC> booh... zinf throws away work without asking.

16:35:16 * danbri waves
16:35:16 <nym> hey _joshua
16:35:30 <nym> i'd like to discuss geo a bit
16:35:56 <danbri> works for me
16:35:56 <nym> if you're able
16:36:12 <danbri> I have a teleconference in 20 mins, so a little distracted (and on phone now)
16:36:24 <nym> okay well i'll just say what i have to say
16:36:32 <danbri> type away! :)
16:37:28 <nym> i think dc:title and dc:description are fine for nesting within geo, although i really would like to see that you add accuracy since it can be used to give a rough estimate of where someone is without being super specific
16:38:25 <nym> ie, someone wants to show where they live, but only be approximate to 3 miles so they won't have people coming to their door
16:38:43 <nym> speed on the other hand, i think i'll create another module for
16:38:53 <nym> it probably will be fairly simple
16:39:25 <nym> i just would rather not cloud the geo functionality by having multiple modules that do similar things
16:40:06 <nym> er, when i said geo i ment geocoordinate rdf
16:41:28 <nym> the accuracy thing is intended at being explicit about which data is fuzzy and which data is precise
16:47:06 <nym> well, i need to run
16:47:14 <nym> brb
16:47:39 * danbri acks that representing accuracy issues is a problem

17:42:16 <libby> sure...
17:42:23 <libby> er, where did I put it...
17:43:19 <libby> the ones startith with t_ are ok I think: http://swordfish.rdfweb.org/discovery/2003/04/www2003/, but it's all a bit unfinished
19:12:29 <sandro> What's the big news you'd tell someone about RDF in the past 6 months (since datatypes were added)? xml:base, and social meaning section removed, and .... And "it's time to implement, etc"
20:16:37 <nym> hey heya
20:16:37 <nym> danbri: back
20:40:24 <nym> hey mortenf
20:41:20 <mortenf> hey nym.
20:42:09 <mortenf> re the precision thing, danbri once talked about doing some properties like near, close etc.
20:42:18 <nym> mortenf: cool
20:42:34 <danbri> some vague discussion of that w/ zool when we were in Amsterdam...
20:42:43 <mortenf> also, some more precise, like closeBy100Meters, closeBy1Kilometer etc. (fibonacci?)
20:42:45 * nym isn't familar with zool
20:43:09 <mortenf> spacenamespace - space.frot.rg
20:43:14 <mortenf> s/.rg/.org/
20:43:23 <danbri> zool == Jo Walsh
20:43:33 <nym> oh, it's a nick :)
20:43:44 <nym> danbri: do you not care for my method?
20:43:45 <mortenf> actually, opencyc does have some like near and close.
20:43:59 <nym> danbri: in regards to accuracy
20:44:02 <danbri> nym, i've not studied it, sorry...
20:44:19 <danbri> (just busy!)
20:44:32 <mortenf> nym, it's kind of the same problem we talked about yesterday, with defaults - remember, it's all about triples...
20:44:46 <nym> Accuracy
20:44:46 <nym> The geospatial accuracy of your coordinates. If you are purposely being fuzzy about your location, pick a point near your location and under accuracy, put an aproximate distance to your real location.
20:45:05 <nym> mortenf: i don't think i understood it completely
20:45:39 <nym> are you saying an accuracy module would be more appropiate?
20:45:43 <mortenf> well, if you have a subject, that has a property that is some object (value), that's a triple.
20:46:07 <mortenf> and, it's not possible in the rdf model to quantify the triple, like you want to.
20:46:59 <nym> explain 'quantify the triple'
20:47:27 <mortenf> put a measure on it, like accuracy.
20:48:04 <nym> oh, the issue of defaulting
20:48:15 <nym> ok
20:48:30 <mortenf> but you're right in the sense that the accuracy is a "problem", it's just that there's currently no (good) solutions.
20:48:49 <danbri> <Person><livesWithin1000MetresOf><Place g:lat="..." g:long="..." g:alt="..."/></etc
20:49:21 <nym> yikes
20:49:24 <nym> that's not nice
20:49:32 <mortenf> that could work, but also has the opposite problem of the accuracy not being a number...
20:49:46 <mortenf> i.e. hard to work with.
20:50:17 <nym> so the answer is not to support it?
20:50:38 <mortenf> this is why i think the spacenamespace project is interesting, since it (also) defines regions (with opencyc), so that instead of a precise point, you state that you are inside a region.
20:51:08 <nym> i don't see why you couldn't nest an accuracy element in the geo module
20:51:13 <mortenf> often, this what is really interesting, finding stuff "nearby" (in the same region).
20:51:25 <mortenf> nesting doesn't work in rdf.
20:51:31 <nym> with nested in the accuracy element, distance, and units
20:51:44 <nym> oh, no wonder
20:51:58 <mortenf> try to think of it as triples, not XML.
20:52:01 <nym> my understanding of rdf is still fairly limited
20:54:17 <danbri> 'nest' is a concept that doesn't really make sense in RDF's terms, since nothing is inside anything else.
20:54:56 * danbri still hoping #rdfig will rubberstamp http://esw.w3.org/topic/OldeWorldeWebServices today ;)
20:55:24 <danbri> i was all psyched about it....
20:56:07 <mortenf> I see your point, but what about the other description languages (WSDL, RDDL)?
21:05:29 <danbri> they're a bit different, but yeah there's a relationship
21:05:37 <danbri> this is more for 'legacy' service types
21:05:49 <mortenf> true, plus it's rdf...
21:06:14 <danbri> mortenf, am just talking w/ libby about a thing we're planning in swad-europe...
21:06:22 <mortenf> yeah?
21:06:27 <danbri> ...to get European semweb reseaarchers and research 'on the map'
21:06:37 <danbri> using rdf/foaf/geo/etc descriptions...
21:06:53 <mortenf> oh, so 'on the map' literally?
21:06:54 <danbri> one issue we're avoiding for now is the firstname/surname/lastname/etc muddle...
21:06:56 <danbri> yep :)
21:07:01 <mortenf> ;-/
21:07:11 <danbri> kinda a rush as ilrt want to make some postcards pre-www2003
21:07:13 <mortenf> (the draft is in a tab)
21:07:25 * danbri grins
21:07:35 <danbri> can you offer interim advice...?
21:07:49 * mortenf checks calendar
21:07:55 <danbri> is the draft public...?
21:08:46 <mortenf> hmmm, not really, too drafty, but http://dublincore.org/documents/name-representation/ is good.
21:09:05 <mortenf> i.e. thought-provoking.
21:09:29 <mortenf> I still haven't made up my mind about a "recommendation"...
21:09:29 <danbri> aww, nothing's too drafty for foaf!
21:09:37 <mortenf> :)
21:09:47 <danbri> the key is sticking disclaimers everywhere... blah 'release early, often' blah...
21:10:06 <mortenf> I promise I'll do it tomorrow (it is after all the first tab to be done!).
21:10:34 <mortenf> at least there'll be something that can be discussed.
21:10:43 <danbri> ok thanks! didn't mean to hassle, just getting that 'looming rollout' feeling, it's time to get a few 1000 more foaf docs out there and see how it works
21:11:01 <mortenf> it's fine, I promised...
21:11:14 <danbri> and we got this specific thing (libby, got an url?) we're gonna try, which might accidentally cause a foaf rollout if we're not careful :)

21:21:49 <mortenf> re the worksIn examples: that's the region/point/accuracy problem right there, it seems from a point-based view that libby work in two distinct places...
21:22:06 <libby> yeah
21:22:17 <libby> but it works colloquially, like livesin
21:22:49 <libby> I dunno. I'm sortof happy with just nearestAirport, because the rest seems to be an (intersting) can of worms....

21:23:07 <mortenf> (for now)

21:24:39 <libby> E:because it's interesting to find out where SW researchers are located.
21:24:40 <dc_rdfig> Added comment E7.
21:27:38 <mortenf> thought: would a foaf-hosting service, combined with a generator, be interesting, or do everyone (interested) have access to their own web space?
21:28:08 <danbri> most early adopted geeks do, lots of others don't.
21:28:29 <danbri> slim line between a 'foaf hosting' service, vs LiveJournal, Slashdot etc site(s) that do their own value-adding...
21:28:43 <danbri> (not that that's a bad thing)
21:28:53 <mortenf> it would be just for a (single) foaf file.
21:30:56 <mortenf> hmm, which airport namespace uri is the best, i use http://www.daml.org/2001/10/html/airport-ont# - the megginson one is dead.
21:31:21 <danbri> looks good to me. derefs usefully too
21:32:22 <mortenf> plus, it's the used in the daml url referenced...
21:32:31 <mortenf> s/the used/the one used/
21:34:08 <danbri> mortenf, don't suppose you have any Restaurant Review data for Denmark?
21:34:16 <danbri> (since you've got all those addresses...)
21:34:24 <mortenf> hmm, I don't, but I haven't looked for any.
21:34:54 <mortenf> are you thinking of reviews and/or opening hours etc.?
21:34:56 * danbri interested, should you come across such
21:34:59 <danbri> all of the above.
21:35:02 <mortenf> :)
21:35:08 <danbri> homepages etc, photos...
21:36:37 <mortenf> we do have aok.dk - all about copenhagen (actually run by my employer, large company...) - ex.: http://www.aok.dk/E/V/CPHDK/0006/66/97/cs1.html
21:37:31 <mortenf> (btw, that place is the best belgian beer bar in the city)
21:39:45 <mortenf> unfortunately, the company took part in a lawsuit on the wrong side of deep links :(
21:48:57 <nym> are there any 'review' modules in rdf?
21:51:04 <DanC-AIM> /me waves from MIA
21:51:41 <danbri> hi Dan!
21:52:41 <DanC-AIM> .time met
21:52:41 <datum> Mon, 07 Apr 2003 22:52:41 MET

21:52:59 <danbri> DanC, I got some restaurant review data (using chefmoz-based markup) loading into my rdfquery system, thanks to Grubstreet (wiki) folk exporting RDF views
21:53:09 <danbri> ...am looking for concrete next steps
21:53:35 <danbri> one idea was to compare different modelling styles, flat doc-centric RSSish approach versus modelling restaurants versus their reviews more explicitly.
21:54:07 <danbri> And to show harvesting of reviews from personal web sites, merged with ChefMoz, merged with Wiki-datadump...
21:54:15 <DanC-AIM> Hmmm. Concrete... Yeah, djw's notes on restaurant reviews weren't quite a concrete use case
21:54:23 <danbri> Hard re getting critical mass though, as data is so fragmented.
21:54:55 <danbri> I got a bunch of frenchie stuff today (bert's; benoit's); chefmoz is US-centric but thin splattering across the planet. And excellent coverage of london thanks to Grubstreet.
21:55:07 <DanC-AIM> Critical mass? How about starting with something that would be useful to just yoy?
21:55:15 <danbri> I think the namespace mixing might be a good next step...
21:55:18 <DanC-AIM> S/yoy/you/
21:55:39 <danbri> for me, i'd love a bristol-oriented vresion of Grubstreet, but will wait till CGI::Wiki stabilises before trying that
21:55:55 <danbri> I did find and augment the review of the restuarant over the road here in bristol.
21:56:15 <danbri> One prob with 'for me' is i never know where I'll be. Hmm, well I know about Budapest. So that's a goal...
21:57:29 <danbri> I would like a way of scribbling 'I went here and this is what I thought of it' into the Web. Maybe I'll do just that...
21:57:54 <danbri> Maybe with voice/wav/mp3 annotation, that'd be interesting to do.

21:58:26 <DanC-AIM> You might try playing with timbl's self-answering question stuff.
21:58:44 * danbri don't remember that... a faqamatic-ish bot?
21:59:30 <DanC-AIM> Tim's stuff is documented in swap/doc/ I think.

22:08:00 <DanC-AIM> Didja see my restaurant-review-from pda?
22:08:12 <DanC-AIM> Ooh! Ethernet in the room.
22:10:52 <danbri> yes, that was nice!
22:11:00 <danbri> I think Bert keeps his list in pda too fwiw
22:11:35 <danbri> I have idea for focus: using foaf:homepage of restaurant to smush reviews together from multiple sources
22:11:40 <danbri> ok gotta run, bye
22:12:27 <DanC-AIM> I'd smush on phone number, for restaurants.
22:13:14 <mortenf> yeah, that'd probably also work if they move or change their name.
22:14:23 <danbri> good pt
22:14:41 <mortenf> but yeah, nn.

23:38:00 * DanC recovers from small panic attack
23:55:54 <danbri> DanC, does your wearable gizmo make it easy to make sound recordings?
23:56:19 <danbri> (eg. you might record comments on a restaurant by speaking into it instead of typing...)
23:56:45 <danbri> Libby and I tried reviewing restaurants on our mobile phones by sending SMS messages once, but was unfeasibly fiddly.
23:57:08 <danbri> another part of the puzzle: discovery of nearby entities automatically, foaffinger/jrendevous etc...
