#
tantek
good morning #social WG!
#
tantek
harry, arnaud are you live in IRC?
#
harry
I am as well
#
tantek
great!
#
harry
I forwarded you all the IEs I could find.
#
harry
Tell me if you want to discuss now
#
harry
There may be more missing, and I've been trying to get sysreq to fix the system
#
harry
but I cannot spend any more time trawling through the archive and arguing with sysreq that their system is broken.
#
harry
So, do you want to go through them now?
#
harry
or after the call?
#
tantek
harry - agreed re: sysreq and their system is broken.
#
tantek
I'm happy to raise this to the AB if you like
#
harry
My feeling is we should have only *implementers* and that Semantic Web vocabularies do not count as implementaitons.
#
harry
Thanks tantek, please do.
#
tantek
Here is my proposed alternative process for IE applications:
#
tantek
1. create a W3C account to login to the wiki (which requires agreeing to all the W3C IE participation requirements, contribution licensese etc.)
#
tantek
3. join IRC here (#social) and ask the chairs to review your application
#
Arnaud
I disagree with the "only implementers*
#
tantek
ZERO use of email or broken W3C forms
#
Arnaud
the w3c too often fails to include users which are hard to get involved
#
Arnaud
in my experience users can be very helpful
#
tantek
harry I agree that we should ONLY have IEs who are implemeters, and I would add, and are *deploying* *live* on their *own sites* with *public* URLs that they share and we can go verify.
#
harry
I agree users could be helpful.
#
Arnaud
tantek is back on his soapbox :)
#
Arnaud
I guess he never is off though ;-)
#
tantek
Arnaud you're wrong about users and involvement etc. especially in the "social web" realm.
#
tantek
Very wrong.
#
harry
Tantek, we have a number of real working proprietary implementers with large user-bases (IBM, SAP, etc.) thta we can't ignore
#
Arnaud
you're entitled to your opinion :)
#
tantek
that's how you get endless email garbage threads
#
tantek
like most federated/social/decentralized discussions for the past 10 years
#
Arnaud
I think you're wrong about requiring people to have a public domain to qualify as expert
#
tantek
Arnaud - not my opinion - fact based on email archives of numerous lists for the past decade
#
harry
However, the main issue is people who basically denial-of-service attack the WG with weird designs who aren't actual users
#
harry
and who are at best hobbyist implementers
#
Arnaud
there is plenty of interesting stuff going on behind firewalls
#
tantek
Arnaud - domains are cheap - if people can't afford that, they likely aren't real developers or experts.
#
Arnaud
the web is not only public
#
Arnaud
that's your opinion
pfefferle joined the channel
#
tantek
and if they can't code simple static HTML pages to put on their domain they are not experts
#
tantek
we don't want people that can only write email
#
tantek
we have too many of those already
#
harry
+1 tantek
#
harry
However, I think we need to keep proprietary implementers
#
Arnaud
but we don't need to argue over this
#
tantek
Arnaud the non-public web can wait for specs to work for the public web
#
harry
So let's say "there must be proof of implementation, ideally in a public URL"
#
Arnaud
we already agreed that we could all vouch for invited experts
#
tantek
no, not ideally
#
tantek
sorry, if you can't ship on a public URL you are not a *web* expert
#
tantek
you may be a web *academic* but you're not an expert
#
harry
"but exceptions are to made to those with proof of employment at an implementer"
#
Arnaud
you're free to use your own criteria, just don't force it on others
#
tantek
then that implementer can join W3C
#
harry
Tantek, in general we are talking about social products at IBM, Boeing, SAP, etc.
#
harry
That's pretty non-academic.
#
tantek
harry - those are W3C Members
#
Arnaud
tantek, to me that's non sense
#
tantek
they don't need IE status
#
harry
But we also have non-members, Sugar, Jive, etc.
#
harry
with the same issue re IE status.
#
tantek
so either you're a W3C member and you just join
#
Arnaud
but I'm not going to try and convince you
#
Arnaud
I understand that's how you see it
#
tantek
OR you're at some other big company and your big company should join W3C
#
Arnaud
that's fine
#
tantek
OR you're an independent in which case you have to *prove* your expertise
#
tantek
we are not going to take your word for it
#
harry
In general, for *big* companies, as agreed with W3C Management, we give them 6 months.
#
tantek
Arnaud - you seem to have no criteria for expert
#
harry
For independents, I agree that we can hold to the "public" case.
#
tantek
so I don't see how your opinion is helpful to *choosing* experts
#
harry
For W3C member companies or those with 6-month IE status that W3C wants to be member companies, then I am OK with behind firewall products.
#
tantek
and saying "that's just your opinion" is not helpful
#
tantek
harry, right. either people pay to play, or they ship public to play.
#
tantek
very simple.
#
harry
Arnaud, what do you think of my suggestion?
#
harry
For W3C member companies or those with 6-month IE status that W3C wants to be member companies, we accept behind firewall products, otherwise we will require public URIs and working code.
#
harry
Then we should revisit the Invited Experts with this new criteria.
#
tantek
I strongly agree
#
tantek
either join W3C and pay, or ship public URL
#
harry
Well, we give them 6 months to join.
#
harry
to see if they find the process useful etc.
#
tantek
sure that's fine
rhiaro_ joined the channel
#
tantek
even I'm not sure if our process is useful :P
#
harry
We'll see.
#
tantek
so far I'm not optimisitic - e.g. by the amount of schema handwaving occuring on the wiki
#
harry
I'm trying to make sure the WG doesn't descend into insanity by virtue of being spammed by people with useless "ontologies" and code no-one uses.
#
tantek
harry - yeah, that's already happened to the mailing list
#
tantek
it's become useless
#
harry
'll see re schema.org
#
harry
Well, lets correct that by revisting IEs.
#
tantek
I'm trying to keep the wiki sane but it's a lot of work
#
tantek
harry - schema-org is a who-cares until someone from the oligopoly (Google/MS/Y!/Yandex) joins
#
harry
Those IEs that don't fit the criteria and want to talk vocabularies can be redirected to Social IG
#
tantek
because there is no evidence of *any* social web usage of any schema-org action/activity
#
tommorris
I think Google et al. may have been burned with betting on OpenSocial and watching it fail.
#
harry
I'd like to see Google/MS/Y!/Yandex join.
#
harry
Anyways, Arnaud - do you agree with my revisiting the IE requirement?
#
tantek
harry me as well. so we can table any discussion of schema-org until they do.
#
harry
I say we give people who are already IEs a one-month grace period rather than abruptly kick them out, but we announce this.
#
harry
One month should be enough time to set-up working code with a URL in this space for an independent.
#
tantek
harry - document your IE criteria immediately on the wiki under your name here: https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg#Invited_Expert_Approval
#
harry
Anyways, I don't hear from Arnaud, so let's add this to agenda.
#
tantek
rather, *update* your IE criteria per what you said above
#
harry
I am strongly against seeing either wiki or mailing list becoming useless.
#
tantek
harry, you don't have to wait for Arnaud - go ahead an update your wiki entry
#
tantek
I'll add subheads to make it more obvious
#
Arnaud
tantek: in my experience people are granted IE status when they are well known entities
#
Arnaud
like David Wood in the RDF WG
#
tantek
doesn't matter if you're against it - the email list is a lost cause
#
harry
I am kind of against this.
#
tantek
unless you start drastically kicking people off
#
harry
Many well-known entities are, to quote Ben Laurie, "certifiably insane"
#
tantek
Arnaud - someone is not a well known entity unless they have a public URL
#
tommorris
An even looser criteria: if you are proposing some technology to base this stuff on, there needs to be an actual implementation of it. I've yet to see an implementation of Hydra or a full implementation of LDP.
#
harry
Agreed Tommorris
#
tantek
if you don't have a personal website you may as well not exist on the social web
#
harry
I'm not into vapourware
#
Arnaud
you don't even need to ask David why he should be granted IE status
#
tommorris
I've seen LDP implementations but none seem to implement Indirect Containers. I'd rather not build on technology that hasn't yet been implemented. ;-)
#
harry
I'd rather not build on anything until it has some real working code and real users.
#
harry
I think IBM will likely have real working code and real users for their LDP product
#
harry
I am not so sure re the other efforts in this space,.
#
harry
So, we should just be fair and clear.
#
harry
I'll document my criteria and we can discuss it in the call.
#
tantek
I have no idea who David Wood is. URL?
#
harry
Re Hydra, all effort on it seems to have stopped about a year ago, unlike say schema.org and ActivityStreams 2.0
#
tantek
this isn't the "social word of mouth take my word for it known entity" working group
#
tantek
this is the "social *web*" working group
#
tantek
no public social web URL, no IE status. very simple.
#
tantek
harry, I've never even heard of Hydra (except in Captain America and Greek mythology) before seeing it on the wiki
#
tommorris
tantek: David Wood = lead author of the book 'Linked Data: Structured data on the Web' (2013, Manning) - http://www.manning.com/dwood/
#
tantek
so who bothered to take the time to document Hydra? and why?
#
tantek
who is using Hydra actively on their personal public website?
#
harry
I think we let the author in as an IE due to his pointing out his work on Github
#
harry
I admit we should have looked closer.
#
harry
I detest people who try to force their particular hobbyhorse solution (that has no users or industrial uptake) down people's throats
#
harry
So let's try to avoid that at all costs. That hurts the WG and it hurts the W3C
#
tantek
tommorris - that's a nice URL for a *book*. Do you have a URL for David Wood himself?
#
tommorris
tantek: nope.
#
tantek
I really don't care if someone has published a dead tree book about some concept.
#
tommorris
(I was Googling because I keep track of RDF-land but hadn't heard of him.)
#
tantek
If you claim to be an expert about "Structured data on the Web" - let's see your *website* with "Structured data"
Arnaud1 joined the channel
#
harry
good luck with that :)
#
tantek
harry - we can ignore people who don't create websites, because it is irrelevant what they propose - they will never build anything.
#
tantek
you're not going to email your way into building a website.
#
harry
Anyways, my proposal is we suggest the new improved IE criteria for the WG during this call
#
harry
and then we give folks a "one-month" grace period
#
Arnaud1
this only reflects one use case
#
tantek
harry - I agree, let's make that clear on the call
#
harry
Well Arnaud, you gotta come up a good criterion. After seeing what's happened on the mailing list, I think we need to beef up the criteria to actual implementations with actual users.
#
Arnaud
what's the "new improved IE criteria"?
#
Arnaud
I really don't know why you keep referring to what happend on the list as bad
#
tantek
Arnaud, W3C SocialWG participation criteria in general: pay to play, or publish publicly on the social web to play.
#
Arnaud
first, there has been little traffic
#
Arnaud
tantek: no, I don't agree with that
#
Arnaud
that is YOUR criteria
#
tantek
Arnaud, you're welcome to handhold the academics and armchair enthusiasts then
#
tantek
and harry's now
#
tantek
read the log
#
tantek
Arnaud - where's YOUR criteria? all you've done so far is reject mine. and rejection of criteria is not critieria itself.
#
Arnaud
what log? irc?
#
tantek
yes. what other log is there?
#
Arnaud
gee, read back the log :)
#
Arnaud
don't keep repeating the same thing please
#
Arnaud
I have no time for this
#
tantek
right, I have no time for academics and armchair enthusiasts
#
tantek
you apparently do
#
Arnaud
you're free to disagree not to ignore what I'm saying
#
Arnaud
speaking of which I have a call to be on now
#
tantek
Arnaud if you have criteria then document it on the wiki: https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg#Arnaud
#
tantek
so far all you've documented is a rejection of my criteria, which is not criteria
#
Arnaud
stop telling me what to do
#
tantek
I will keep repeating requests for this until you provide it
#
Arnaud
it's in the log, you can put copy/paste in the wiki if you care
#
Arnaud
you're good at giving others "clerical actions", so have it your way :)
#
harry
This is my proposal:
#
harry
I do suggest that Arnaud find alternative criteria.
#
tantek
Arnaud - I see no criteria from you in the log - go ahead and provide a permalink to it in the log and I'll happily copy to the wiki: http://socialwg.indiewebcamp.com/irc/social/2014-09-23
#
harry
Being "well-known" is not enough, as lots of unproductive folks are well-known.
#
harry
I'd like to keep this WG productive.
#
tantek
harry - depends on how we define "well-known"
#
tantek
so here's a sample definition
#
tantek
when you search for the person's name on Google
#
tantek
on the FIRST PAGE you see a result for their PERSONAL WEBSITE
#
tantek
if not, they are not "well known
#
harry
Tantek, that's too harsh, no-one controls Google.
#
tantek
fine, first TWO pages
#
harry
We should let them email us working code and real users as evidence thereof.
#
tantek
we should let them email us a URL to working code and real users
#
tantek
or drop a URL here in IRC
#
tantek
frankly, if "well-known" is your criteria, perhaps that's more appropriate for the Social IG
#
harry
Exactly, that criteria I think is fine for IG
#
harry
just not for WG
#
harry
going to get dinner
#
harry
nick harry-dinner
#
harry-dinner
hehe
#
tantek
Social WG should focus on existing implementations and implementers
#
tantek
everyone else is welcome to contribute to the Social IG
#
rhiaro_
Hola. Apologies I can't make the call this evening, I'll be between trains. I have, however, booked tickets and flights for TPAC. And in less than two weeks, my life will be back to normal and I'll be able to get my shit together and perhaps actually contribute something..
#
sandro
I suggest (1) the chairs and staff contact reach consensus on any candidate before they are approved, and (2) approval be based on what needed expertise they bring to the group.
#
sandro
There's no need to say anything about running code or "real users".
elf-pavlik joined the channel
#
tantek
sandro - exactly. and per Harry and my criteria, we (chairs+contact) are not going to reach consensus on any IE application that does not have a public social website. I for one will veto.
#
tommorris
tantek, Arnaud: my apologies for non-attendance. I have an office leaving drinks to go to.
#
tantek
tommorris - your explicit regrets are noted. thanks.
#
elf-pavlik
ekiga echo test sounds ok but Zakim SIP sounds pretty bad, i may need to listen and type on IRC if voice doesn't work
#
jasnell
tantek: please define what you mean by "public social website" in this case. What's the exact criteria
#
tantek
public - URL you can curl
#
tantek
social - content posted which mentions other people or other social web content
#
tantek
(mentions via URL reference, not just name)
ShaneHudson joined the channel
#
tantek
that's a good start
#
jasnell
so: any existing implementor of on-premise social software designed to be used behind the firewall is automatically excluded?
#
tantek
web = HTML served over HTTP from a URL
#
elf-pavlik
tantek i got it back online! $ curl -H "Accept: application/ld+json" https://wwelves.org/perpetual-tripper/
#
tantek
jasnell - for IE status - yes. if all you have is behind firewall, you don't get to be an IE.
#
tantek
You may still join W3C and participate as a W3C member
#
tantek
frankly I have yet to see useful standards feedback from any "only behind firewall" contributors.
#
tantek
URLs to exceptions welcome
#
jasnell
http://www-03.ibm.com/software/products/en/conn, http://www-01.ibm.com/software/integration/business-process-manager/library/documentation/ are two. Both are on-premise software packages designed for behind the firewall usage, both implement Activity Streams in social business scenarios, and both come from a major contributor to this WG
#
jasnell
plus, your criteria is not specific enough
#
tommorris
I believe IBM are members of the W3C, no?
#
jasnell
what URL am I supposed to be able to curl?
#
jasnell
if I produce behind the firewall, on-prem software and have a public website to sell my stuff, does that count?
#
jasnell
or are we talking about the url of deployed instances of that software?
evanp_ and evanp joined the channel
#
jasnell
the point is: if you're going to attempt to put a restriction like "public social website", you need to be clear what you mean
#
jasnell
because your definitions are too vague
#
tantek
jasnell - irrelevant because IBM is a W3C member.
#
evanp
Hi all
#
evanp
T-5 minutes
#
evanp
elf-pavlik: hello!
#
tantek
like I said, criteria for participation in WG is:
#
elf-pavlik
Zakim, list
#
Zakim

#
Zakim

#
tantek
EITHER pay to play (W3C member) or publish publicly on the social web to play.
#
tantek
ergo if you're a W3C member, you're done. join and participation. no further criteria.
#
elf-pavlik
IMO with nice coordiantion with IG and CG we can avoid tensions and still make it possible for everyone interested to participate
#
jasnell
what does "publish publicly on the social web" mean?
#
wilkie
elf-pavlik: nice work as usual with organization. please, if you want to delegate anything, I can help.
#
tantek
jasnell - publish - with permalink

Aside: I am opposed to https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg/2014-09-23#Meeting_with_Schema.org_team_.40TPAC without having any such representative join the wg. All schema-org members are W3C members thus they should join the socialWG if they want to participate in the meeting.

so this resolution didn't address my proposal

bblfish: there has to be more open and agreement about what the use cases are before we start spec
#
harry
No, the Interest Group has official status and is not open to everyone.
#

It requires an IE status. It just has no patent commits.
#
harry
You should read the charters bblfish.
#
jtauber
bblfish: WG isn't bound by IG
#

harry, CG then most peole can join
#
Arnaud
the problem is more about scope, the IG is much more open ended
#
Zakim
sees elf-pavlik, jasnell, harry on the speaker queue
#
Arnaud
I think it's reasonable to have the IG develop use cases
#
Arnaud
but the WG ought to agree on which ones are relevant to this WG

So, we let the development of use-cases happen in IG

evanp

sees jasnell, harry on the speaker queue

and then they bring them up to WG when mature.

#

+0.8... this seems to be too broad for me... where's the limit? access control, login, ...

#
evanp

#
harry
believe it's resolved.
#
bblfish
+1 for swat0, but not for limiting to that.
#

#
jtauber
do we scribe "resolved" for straw polls?
#
tantek
jtauber no, straw polls are not resolutions.
#
jtauber
thought so
#
tantek
jtauber that's up to the chair to make an official resolution
#
jasnell
-1... it ought to be up to the chairs when and whether to reintroduce use cases to the discussion
#
markus
my vote doesn't take harry's addition into consideration

strongly object to that comment

#

aww, cheer up
#
Arnaud
ok, I'm good with that resolution
#
harry
PROPOSAL: Only the chairs can decide when to introduce new use-cases into the discussion, and then the rest of the use-case discussion should happen in the IG or be off-topic
#
bblfish
thanks sandro for spotting that
#
tantek
we can start talking test cases when we we have one or more drafts being implemented on the way to a CR
#
tantek
do we have any such working drafts?
#
harry
RESOLUTION: SWAT0 is the initial use-case
#
harry
Although at some point would like to see test-cases :)
#
jtauber
evanp: reasonable to have social data syntax use cases for TPAC?
#
sandro
Harry, it's already up to the chairs to decide that. Don't limit their power via the Exception Proves The Rule.
#
harry
Sandro, that's a proposal to clarify the scope.
#
jtauber
MarkCrawford: happy to ensure focus of IG is requirements of WG over next few weeks
#
elf-pavlik
i propose to move it to mailing list and go on with other agenda points soon
#
evanp
+1
#
jasnell
alternative PROPOSAL: Anyone can propose a use case discussion on the mailing list or wiki but the chairs will decide whether the use case is put on the agenda/queued for discussion.
#
harry
And ask people to move use-case discussion to IG until appropriate, as judged by the WG chairs.
#
Arnaud
note to scribe: please, clean up the mess with all the different "RESOLUTION", and make sure only the real one is labelled as such in the minutes
#
harry
jasnell, the WG mailing list is not appropriate for an open-ended use-case discussion by anyone. That's why we have the IG.
#
evanp
Should we ask for initial use cases for social data syntax by TPAC (end October)?
#
harry
We need to clarify what forum is useful for which kind of discussion.
#
ShaneHudson
From the IG?
#
evanp
ShaneHudson: yes
#
jasnell
harry: I didn't say open ended use-case discussion. I said propose a use case discussion that the chairs can choose to accept or not
#
Arnaud
harry, but anyone can propose the WG adopts a use case developed in the IG
#
jtauber
straw poll: Should we ask for initial use cases for social data syntax from the IG by TPAC (end October)?
#
bblfish
+1 but it's still something that the group has to then agree to here
#
tantek
+1 with deadline the *Tuesday* before TPAC so we have a chance to review
#
jtauber
+1
#
jasnell
+1 for asking the IG for use cases
#
harry
Yes, but you have that discussion on the IG list, not the WG list. When you think you have something ready after discussion at the IG, then you can propose to the WG.
#
markus
+1 if the IG is fine with that
#
MarkCrawford
+1
#
harry
We need to keep signal-to-noise ratio on WG mailing list and wiki better.
#
harry
And we need more people to contribute to the IG
#
ShaneHudson
I agree with Tantek that it would be good to have it ready before TPAC to review
#

Also, I'd prefer to use the term "vocabulary" rather than "ontology" lest we sound silly

doesn't make sense to make it optional.. we can nevertheless ensure that JSON-only clients can process documents

I am *for* providing syntax *options*
#

elf-pavlik
also markus just raised concern about optional requirement
#
harry
Note that the charter requires JSON as a basis.
#
tantek
-1 on JSON-LD as a required basis
#
jasnell
the AS2 ontology approach allows us to use JSON-LD and HTML5 syntax options, and also allows turtle
#
elf-pavlik
evanp: we had straw pool 2 weeks ago and JSON-LD had big support
#
ShaneHudson
+1 harry, JSON as a basis with JSON-LD as an option
#
harry
Discussion of XML alternatives etc. are out of scope
#
Arnaud
harry, are you saying that JSON-LD doesn't qualify as JSON?
#
harry
Happy to bring those up in the IG.
#
Zakim

#
harry
No, JSON-LD is a subset of JSON.
#
markus
+q to ask tantek why he objects to use JSON-LD
#
Zakim
sees harry, markus on the speaker queue
#
harry
So we're happy to have JSON-LD either as a requirement (if group gets consensus) or as an option.
#
jtauber
evanp: many proposals in front of us use JSON-LD
#
Zakim
sees harry, markus, sandro on the speaker queue
#
sandro
q+ to ask how tantek is thinking the "Social Data Syntax" can work without having a required syntax
#
tantek
I object to *requiring* JSON-LD
grantmacken joined the channel
#
jasnell
no, JSON-LD is JSON with some additional bits. JSON-LD can be parsed as JSON without requiring any of the JSON-LD processing model
#
Zakim
sees harry, markus, sandro, bblfish on the speaker queue
#
sandro
Ah, Tantek wants to allow microformats
#
wilkie
some systems only use xml :)
#
markus
markus: tantek, could you please elaborate on why you object to json-ld and what you mean by making it optional
#
elf-pavlik
JSON-LD also allows microformats as vocab
#
Zakim
sees harry, markus, sandro, bblfish on the speaker queue
#
jtauber
tantek: JSON-LD can be documented options but we should allow HTML5 + microformats
#
Zakim
sees harry, markus, sandro, bblfish on the speaker queue
#
evanp
ack harry
#
Zakim
sees markus, sandro, bblfish on the speaker queue
#

(side note that HTML5 + microformats can be turned into a JSON document via the parsing rules)
#
jtauber
harry: charter says JSON is requirement
#
wilkie
I feel that argument means RSS should be our leading example because of its prevalence heh
#
sandro
Social Data Syntax
#
sandro
A JSON-based syntax to allow the transfer of social information, such as status updates, across differing social systems. One input to this deliverable is ActivityStreams 2.0.
#
elf-pavlik
evanp, can you ask for extra 15min time for this call please?
#
tantek
there is canonical JSON output from microformats parsers
#
evanp
elf-pavlik: will do
#
bblfish
I kind of agree with the points about RDFa/microformats but then we can make it simple: The protocol could be put in terms of RDF then
#
Zakim
sees markus, sandro, bblfish on the speaker queue
#
jasnell
a minimal JSON syntax can be defined and adopted that is IDENTICAL to the serialization that JSON-LD provides
#
Zakim
sees markus, bblfish on the speaker queue

The charter is pretty old :)
#
harry
I'm very pro being implementation driven.
#
sandro
tantek: Since the charter was written, it's become mistaken, as we now have microformat-providing servers working well
#
harry
We should get back to schema.org folks invite for TPAC.

There is no reason why json and microformats can not both be options, they would work the same way more or less (as microformats can be parsed as JSON anyway as pointed out)

#

#
Zakim
sees sandro on the speaker queue
#
tantek
why put something simpler (microformats) in terms of something more complex? (RDFa)
#
elf-pavlik
I think we *need* more conversation over mailin list before we discuss it during teleconf
#
jtauber
bblfish: linked data principles whether in JSON-LD, RDFa microformats
#
elf-pavlik
tantek, i find RDFa simler
#
evanp
q?
#
Zakim
sees sandro on the speaker queue
#
tantek
disagree that it's difficult for servers. more personal social websites are serving HTML5+microformats than RDFa.
#
Zakim
sees sandro on the speaker queue
#
jasnell
Note: We already agreed previously to split Activity Streams 2.0 into separate Syntax and Vocabulary. The Vocabulary would define the Activity ontology. This vocabulary can be represented in JSON, JSON-LD, HTML, or any other syntax.
#
evanp
ack sandro
#
Zakim
sees no one on the speaker queue
#
harry
The last thing I want to revisit is the microformat vs. RDFa vs. microdata debate.
#
tantek
harry - right
#
elf-pavlik
evanp, I would like to ask last 5 minutes to discuss *Meeting with Schema.org team @TPAC*
#
tantek
and I want to avoid making that kind of decision politically for sure
#
jtauber
sandro: one format or variety of interchangable formats?
#
evanp
elf-pavlik: thanks, I will try to get us to that
#
tantek
as opposed to by documented adoption
#
harry
We have chosen ONE required format, JSON, in the charter. Other syntaxes are optional.
#
jasnell
What I suggest is: At a minimum, to address the charter requirement, we require a minimum-to-implement JSON serialization that is compatible with JSON-LD but does not require an implementer to use the JSON-LD processing model to understand
#
jtauber
evanp: charter does specify JSON
#
bblfish
I think the social web is so big, that in then end you have to accomodate a few different syntaxes. But we MUST agree on the model
#
harry
+1 and not a required @context element or "@" namespaces, although I hope folks will use this.

for the "required" JSON syntax in the charter, I would propose the canonical JSON output of microformats parsers: http://microformats.org/wiki/microformats2#simple_microformats_2_examples

tantek: will you just veto a non-microformat direction regardless of discussion and charter? I think JSON-LD and microformats are both very good and can be both used without too much trouble.
#
tantek
markus - yes, documented on w3.org/wiki/socialwg documents and in detail on indiewebcamp.com
#
jtauber
aaronpk: HTML + microformat is just syntax

#
tantek
not data/evidence driven
#
jasnell
tantek: what about my suggestion?
#
tantek
so is requiring JSON - but we unfortunately froze that into the charter
#
wilkie
I'm not sure that's true, nor do I see a lot of data on anything
#
harry
It was felt in chartering that ONE syntax was needed, and JSON was kinda simple.

I'm pretty sure JSON is widely supported haha

harry - serving JSON is *extra work* = not simple
#
aaronpk
and XML was widely supported 10 years ago, so...
#
ShaneHudson
Focusing on the actual model will avoid problems with JSON one day going out of fashion (in the same way as XML)
#
elf-pavlik
sandro: how about developin library which will bridge all exisitng indie web deployments into new standard we recommend
#
tantek
whereas *everyone* on the *web* has to serve HTML
#
tantek
so the *simplest* approach was to just add microformats to that HTML
#
sandro
sandro: I'm hoping folks using microformats can be happy with this JSON-social-data-syntax via some conversion libraries
#
Arnaud
queue related commands don't need to prefix with "Zakim,"

#
bblfish
In my view the vocabulary is a secondary issue, once we get agreement on the modelling
#
bblfish
then it's just a question of name space
#
tantek
bblfish - do you have example of such on your own site at a permalink that we can inspect?
#
tantek
I'm having trouble following your assertions in the abstract.
#
bblfish
what do you mean "of such"
#
tantek
where such = "vocabulary", "modeling", "name space" in your statement
#
tantek
s/statement/statements
#
Loqi
tantek meant to say: where such = "vocabulary", "modeling", "name space" in your statements
#
bblfish
yes, my basis point is RDF, then I am happy with any vocab that does the job and is accepted
#
bblfish
currently I use foaf a lot, and other vocabs
#
bblfish
if we can get activity streams to be described in terms of RDF, then the minimum requirement is there
#
tantek
bblfish - I'm surprised as an RDF person that when I ask for a permalink (URL), you instead provide prose.
#
tantek
thank you
#
bblfish
you can get it in N3 or rdf/xml
#
bblfish
have not gotten around to give it back in JSON-LD
#
bblfish
want to do that when I have my LDP server finished
#
bblfish
ah or turtle too
#
bblfish
on my ldp rww-server it will then also generate an html5 view by using the data from any of those formats
#
bblfish
it does that dynamically in the browser
#
bblfish
using JS
#
bblfish
you don't of course need a special server to do that, plain Apache will do. That server just makes it much much easier for people to get things right
