14:36:44 <libby> hm

14:36:56 <crschmidt> no dc_swig

14:37:01 <libby> eek!

14:37:05 <libby> ah well

14:37:23 <libby> and no dajobe!

14:37:26 <dajobe> hmm, hold on

14:37:34 <Yoshio> EricPs slide : http://www.w3.org/2005/Talks/28-DAWG-SWIG/

14:37:37 <chaalsBOS> Chaals (Charles McCathieNevile): Ex W3C staff (WAI / SWAD-E / QA), currently "between jobs". Interested in Semantic Web for accessibility (people with disabilities - in my spare time I am vice-presidente and burro especial of a spanish-language accessibility group, fundacion sidar http://www.sidar.org - accessing the web), multilingual stuff and cultural things. (By training I'm a medieval historian)

14:38:10 * bandri didn't trawl for scribing

14:38:20 <bandri> but if folks could take turns typing here that'd be great

14:38:22 <bandri> bandri is now known as danbri

14:38:40 <dajobe> B:|Eric Miller's SWIG 2005 slides

14:38:40 <dc_swig> Titled item B.

14:38:55 <libby> cheers dave!

14:39:11 <dc_swig> C: http://www.w3.org/2005/Talks/28-DAWG-SWIG/ from libby

14:39:30 <libby> C:|EricP's slides on DAWG

14:39:30 <dc_swig> Titled item C.

14:48:17 <danbri> question: how much do we care about trying to scribe discussion? vs just capturing links?

14:48:25 <danbri> i lean towards link capture at least...

14:49:32 <Yoshio> it would help if one enters his question...

14:49:53 <Yoshio> s/his/his or her/

14:49:59 * las2 notes that audibility varies around the room

14:50:00 <danbri> em: i wondre if the DAWG can take advantge of the Interest Group to help shape future directions

14:50:33 <danbri> ...balance aspects of having something 'rock solid' but take ages... vs quicker but less stable, etc

14:50:49 <danbri> ...how to help dawg?

14:51:09 <danbri> ericp: most help the IG could provide is... in spec, we have various bits of the spec written in red, flaged as an issue

14:51:14 <danbri> ...input on those bits esp useful

14:51:52 <danbri> em: some of the issues aren't explained v clearly for external input

14:52:41 <chaalsBOS> asked whether there was some resourced plan to resolve difficult things in a version 2, or if the public are going to get into a panic about making sure the first version has the things we need.

14:53:22 <chaalsBOS> [response was that this is likely to be based on response to the first version - if we want more, implement what we get as a start ]

14:53:25 <danbri> danbri: rdf query / xml query relation

14:53:33 <danbri> em: xml gives us typed literals

14:53:37 <danbri> s/em/ericp/

14:54:08 <danbri> ...used a subset of xml functions/operators

14:54:30 <danbri> ...people who are used to doing xslt or xquery will have at least some familiarity

14:54:48 <danbri> jjc: how clsoe to last call?

14:55:01 <danbri> ericp: hoping for end march for most docs

14:55:21 <danbri> jjc: some issues from rdfcore and webont were postponed beyond wg, due to lack time/effort

14:55:31 <benja_> what does "xml gives us typed literals" mean in this context? that the type-related stuff from xquery can be lifted to dawg?

14:55:49 <dajobe> benja_: read the sparql query WD

14:56:52 <danbri> anyone care to scribe more?

14:57:05 <AndyS> The evalaution of, say, "?x < 5" is based on XML schema datatypes of if ?x is bound to "3"^^xsd:integer then it woudl pass that test

14:57:34 <benja_> the relevant part being "In addition, SPARQL imports a subset of the XPath functions, listed in table 11.2, which are invoked by name within a SPARQL query. These operations are taken from the XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Functions and Operators [17]." <http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-rdf-sparql-query-20050217/#tests>?

14:59:14 <AndyS> yes - section 11.1 and section 11.2 (which has table 11.2) - make sense?

14:59:28 <benja_> yes

14:59:33 <benja_> thx

15:00:15 * chaalsBOS can scribe this talk

15:00:27 <las2> Chris Bizer (w/ Jeremy, Hayes, Stickler)

15:00:29 <chaalsBOS> Chris Bizer, talking about SPARQL and named graphs

15:00:47 <las2> /msg chaalsBOS all yours.

15:01:02 <chaalsBOS> using WITH and FROM to determine which bits of data you query over

15:01:12 <danbri> thanks chaals (&las2)

15:01:15 <chaalsBOS> so you can do trust weighting and so on over the sources

15:01:31 <benja_> (benja_ reads sparql draft) a==a is false for literals and bnodes?

15:01:38 <chaalsBOS> and only collect information from people we actually trust...

15:02:01 <chaalsBOS> So think of a dataset - a background graph and some named graphs

15:02:22 <chaalsBOS> will talk about implementing them, signing them, and talk of use cases (versioning and provenance)

15:02:28 <chaalsBOS> Implementations.

15:02:39 * chaalsBOS wonders if these slides are online somewhere

15:03:04 <chaalsBOS> NG4J implements this stuff for Jena

15:03:18 <danbri> A:|SwigAtTp2005

15:03:18 <dc_swig> Titled item A.

15:03:32 <danbri> A:+[http://beta.foaf-project.org/2004/media/wp-content/moblog-images/2005-02-28_143010_4866_0.jpg]

15:03:32 <dc_swig> Added comment A1.

15:03:33 <chaalsBOS> API that works on named graphs

15:03:55 <chaalsBOS> A "quad" API

15:04:03 <chaalsBOS> new slide

15:04:28 <chaalsBOS> THere is an XML syntax (TriX)

15:05:00 <chaalsBOS> so you can use any XML tool. But it is verbose. (looks like ntriples re-encoded in XML, to me)

15:05:02 <danbri> A:+[http://beta.foaf-project.org/2004/media/wp-content/moblog-images/2005-02-28_150851_7242_0.jpg] (Chris Bizer)

15:05:02 <dc_swig> Added comment A2.

15:05:14 <chaalsBOS> Also TriG, based on Turtle

15:05:19 <chaalsBOS> two syntaxes...

15:05:52 <chaalsBOS> interesting with respect to GetGraph in SPARQL

15:06:12 <chaalsBOS> being able to accept trig/trix formats allows different optimisations

15:06:29 <chaalsBOS> From implemetation experience:

15:06:36 <chaalsBOS> repositories fill up quickly.

15:07:07 <chaalsBOS> Wildcards might also be useful - for example to backup data...

15:07:22 <chaalsBOS> Publishing with signatures.

15:07:44 <chaalsBOS> Take a graph, relate it to provenance / digital signature stuff.

15:08:01 <chaalsBOS> (some implementation detail, code example in TriG)

15:08:51 <chaalsBOS> signing a staement inside the statement through some kind of sha_1

15:09:20 <chaalsBOS> or signing something where there are multiple named graphs, and signing a few of them at once in a graph.

15:10:19 <chaalsBOS> Some use cases of NG4J - a list including SWED (faceted browser), source code versioning (/me glad to see that), ontology evolution, and so on.

15:11:38 <D[a]vey> D[a]vey is now known as Davey

15:11:54 <benja_> what I've always been unclear about re this work -- if I aggregate the graphs http://foo/1 and http://foo/2 and store the result as TriG and publish at http://bar/, and someone else tries to load http://bar/ and aggregate it, what happens? so I claim that http://foo/1 says X; do they have to believe that http://foo/1 says X in order to store that http://bar/ says that http://foo/1 says X?

15:12:06 <chaalsBOS> Questions...

15:12:16 * danbri updates http://esw.w3.org/topic/SwigAtTp2005

15:12:47 <chaalsBOS> Q - is there another reason for using this stuff in sparql than avoiding loading a lot of namespaces?

15:13:14 * chaalsBOS not clear what the answer is

15:13:30 <chaalsBOS> Danbri notes that DanC has tried to get Turtle published as SWIG note

15:13:54 <chaalsBOS> someone notes N3 (as a hack of unknown status but wide use) is in the SPARQL spec

15:14:13 <chaalsBOS> Q- observations on scalability?

15:14:22 <chaalsBOS> Stephen - working on it

15:14:30 <las2> /msg RRS testing whether I fixed msgs

15:14:40 <danbri> nope :)

15:15:01 <chaalsBOS> Jeremy - Jena is triple oriented. Named graphs moves towards quad-based view.

15:15:09 <chaalsBOS> Chris- we are not using Jena that much

15:15:19 <Yoshio> someone in "someone notes N3 ..." is Kendall Clark

15:15:22 <chaalsBOS> ... we have our own database backend

15:15:52 <chaalsBOS> JJC (Jeremy) so there are two routes - you can build on a triple- or quad-based structure

15:16:04 <chaalsBOS> AndyS - Jena has a quad-based thing: SPARQL

15:16:23 <chaalsBOS> RRS - Timbl has log:includes in N3. What's the relation between that and named graphs

15:16:39 <chaalsBOS> JJC is thinking - will get back to you

15:16:39 * bijan wonders how widely used N3 really is

15:16:55 <chaalsBOS> RRS - it is a relation etween a formula and a statement

15:17:09 * chaalsBOS thinks a bit of it is widely used, and the cool stuff isn't so common

15:17:21 <las2> /msg danbri trying again :-)

15:17:29 <chaalsBOS> las2 nope

15:17:30 <danbri> nope x2 :)

15:18:22 <chaalsBOS> JJC - this is about how you can collect stuff up and compare things, passing pieces of data. THe idea is that we have avoided something that is not well-documented in n3, where it might merge blank nodes.

15:18:47 <chaalsBOS> ... also, n3 formulae are hard to name, so harder to re-use.

15:19:02 <Fabien_> Named Graph Website http://www.w3.org/2004/03/trix/

15:19:10 <chaalsBOS> bijan: THere are other kinds of variables in n3 formulae that don't appear in named graphs. How do they nest?

15:19:20 <chaalsBOS> JJC - they will nest

15:19:52 <chaalsBOS> Bijan - as an object, not subgraph. In n3 formulae they are a bit mixed - sort of an object, sort of a subgraph.

15:20:10 <chaalsBOS> ... I think there are a lot more issues. Named Graphs and N3 are not designed to support the same thing

15:20:23 <chaalsBOS> JJC one design appraoch is to do as little as possible

15:21:30 <chaalsBOS> Jos - our experience is that there are two kinds of names. Seperate documents, whose URI can be used, and graphs that have names so you pass them by value.

15:21:52 <chaalsBOS> Bijan - if the literal form of the graph is its name, they are not mutable

15:21:58 <chaalsBOS> JJC nor are named graphs

15:22:13 <chaalsBOS> Jos - there is a trade-off. We get long graphs. But it is working

15:22:35 <chaalsBOS> PatrickS - you are using graph as name not graph as graph

15:22:50 <chaalsBOS> PhilT - have an issue with dimensions and abstractions

15:23:11 <chaalsBOS> ... when I look up associated syntax implementations they are dimension specific - we have triples, or quads

15:23:20 <chaalsBOS> ... and there are things that go to higher dimensions

15:23:47 <chaalsBOS> ... but syntax is ased on dimension. Is there a value to astracting the syntax further?

15:23:52 <chaalsBOS> bijan: makes sense

15:24:03 * chaalsBOS starting to get lost around his belly-button fluff

15:24:20 <chaalsBOS> JJC See the triple-oriented thing as an attempt to be as simple as possible

15:24:29 <chaalsBOS> ... think that might have been too simple

15:24:36 <chaalsBOS> PhilT notes that was deliberate

15:25:26 <chaalsBOS> JJC reification, which came from using triples, doesn't work well enough and isn't enough of a solution, which motivates moving to quads. ut then you get another indirection case, and you want to move to quintuples...

15:25:44 <chaalsBOS> Coffee break. Return at 10h45 boston time

17:53:32 <danja> hi benja

17:53:37 <danja> you in Boston?

17:54:45 <benja_> no, unfortunately... no money for that kind of thing...

17:55:03 <benja_> you?

17:55:03 <danja> heh, me neither

17:55:08 <benja_> right =)

17:55:19 <benja_> have a look at http://himalia.it.jyu.fi/~benja/ff-screenshots-2005-02-27/

17:55:51 <benja_> I note you have two blogs, according to your published RDF: http://dannyayers.com/ and http://dannyayers.com/.../site_admin

17:56:15 <danja> hey, that's looking good

17:56:38 <danja> site_admin? hmm - something weird in template

17:57:11 <danja> desperately need to update that FOAF

17:58:20 <danja> _:Orlando foaf:status "pushing up daisies" .

17:58:38 <danja> :-(

17:59:14 <danja> what's the current position with FF re. releases?

17:59:29 <benja_> I have two versions of the pets -- the ones in the FOAF have neither URIs nor IFPs, so they don't get smushed...

18:00:01 <danja> (meeow!)

18:00:14 <benja_> danja: unfortunately still not close :-( -- it seems like it's still going to be months until we have a nonprofit set up

18:00:35 <danja> aw. Good to see you're keeping at it though

18:00:59 <danja> any developments with that patent issue?

18:00:59 <benja_> otoh, if we get the statement from the lawyer, we might find another legal entity willing to distribute it... (need to put legal statement on my todo)

18:01:44 * danja cringes at legal issues

18:03:12 <benja_> the site-admin has the rdfs:seeAlso, but http://dannyayers.com is what the acutal RSS uses =-p

18:03:29 * danja adds to to-do

18:03:47 <danja> ah, before I forget...

18:04:36 <benja_> [urgh, I broke my smushing code. now I have 12 dannys around. argl!]

18:04:42 <benja_> hm?

18:04:58 <danja> must get those other 11 working

19:47:53 <bandri2> yep it's closed, sorry. it would've been unfair on the w3c admin folks to keep things open... they're busy w/ running 100s of meetings now

19:48:14 <DAllemang> Thanks for the info - saved me a trip downtown.

19:48:28 <bijan> Er...

19:48:30 <bijan> If you want to come

19:48:34 <bijan> Come on down :)

19:48:34 <DAllemang> Hi Bijan!

19:48:37 <bijan> Hiya

19:48:44 <DAllemang> Oh, good. you're one of the people I wanted to see

19:48:45 <bijan> Really, SWIG is different from other groups

19:48:51 <bijan> If you want to sit in, please come on

19:48:52 <DAllemang> Oh, good.

19:48:56 <DAllemang> what room are you in?

19:48:57 <bijan> just don't expect food ;)

19:49:08 <DAllemang> I can manage that myself, not to worry . . .

19:49:15 <DAllemang> after all, I live here.

19:49:19 <bijan> :)

19:49:38 <DAllemang> Is Guus Schreiber there? I am particularly interested in BP

19:49:46 <bijan> Yes

19:49:48 <bandri2> you could probably break in, the security's not so tight... (but no name badge, lunch etc...)

19:49:50 <DAllemang> Actually, I think it is really Alan Rector who I'd like to see

19:50:10 <DAllemang> Oh! I thought it was tomorrow morning.

21:25:45 * mortenf notes that linking in to filmtrust is hard - all the pages are restricted...

21:27:03 <bijan> Yeah

21:27:11 <bijan> That's part of the IRB restrictions

21:27:16 <bijan> We could lift some

21:27:21 <bijan> Probably

21:27:25 <mortenf> ah, didn't realise that was a problem

21:27:30 <bijan> But we have to be careful from an ethical point of view

21:27:33 <mortenf> sure

21:27:56 <bijan> But I suspect that anything that is public to other users can be public period

21:28:05 <bijan> But we'll prolly have to check with the board

23:49:16 <Mkflow> hi to all

23:52:49 <Mkflow> is there anyone? i have a trouble with latex, i've installed it 1 hour ago,

23:53:54 <Mkflow> i have a .tex, if i launch latex for create pdf with \documentstyle[]{report}

23:54:10 <KjetilK> \documentstyle is _ancient_

23:54:23 <Mkflow> it goes well. with \documentstyle[a4paper]{article} latex tells me that a4paper.sty is not present

23:54:23 <KjetilK> you probably want \documentclass

23:54:47 <KjetilK> oh, ok

23:54:55 <KjetilK> which OS ?

23:55:34 * JibberJim hasn't done any latex in years... memories...

23:56:04 * KjetilK likes LaTeX for a lot of stuff, but "the right tool for the job"

23:56:14 <Mkflow> well, the problem was that

23:56:41 <Mkflow> my attention fault at this hour, ok, i thank you

23:56:48 <KjetilK> hehe, np

23:57:07 <KjetilK> \documentclass was introduced in LaTeX2e

23:57:27 <KjetilK> but there are still a lot of LaTeX 2.09 installations around

23:57:41 <KjetilK> and a lot of code, pre-1990 stuff.... :-)
