tantek: next issue explicit or implicit typing
#
aaronpk
jasnell: the current approach is to depend on explicit types. the implicit approach was talked about at the F2F but not followed up on
#
aaronpk
...i'm sure an implementation could choose to do implicit if it wanted, but right now the approach is explicit
#
aaronpk
tantek: is there anyone here who would like to propose implicit typing?
#
bblfish
I suppose implicit typing would require rdf:domain and rdf:range
#
aaronpk
...specifically how to do it
#
eprodrom
Not me and I believe the current typing is good
#
aaronpk
???: I don't have an opinion on this, but if you wanted to, you'd specify the domain and range
#
tantek
s/???/bblfish
#
aaronpk
...and then an rdf inferencing engine would be able to infer it
#
aaronpk
...but we don't want to make people rely on this in the beginning, better to make it explicit
#
hhalpin
yep, its highly unlikely anyone will use RDF(S) inferencing.

Zakim

#
aaronpk
tantek: we were using a lot of jargon at the f2f and we didn't all agree necessarily
#
bblfish
I wonder if this can be subsumed by use cases
#
aaronpk
AnnB: we do have lloyd, chair of the vocab task force in the IG
#
aaronpk
tantek: no this isn't for vocabulary, just in prose
#
aaronpk
AnnB: a glossary is similar to teh vocabulary no?
#
aaronpk
eprodrom: the problem was that we have a use case that speaks abotu federating profiles, uses "federate" as a verb without clearly saying what that means
#
aaronpk
...the idae was that we would grab some of the jargon terms and nail them down

lloyd: my perspective is federation through vocabulary is a circular argument
#
aaronpk
...to me it was a discussion about having a central resource to do the federation or is the standard going to allow direct multi-point to multi point federation
#
aaronpk
tantek: that's not what the issue was about, just that we couldn't agree on what federation meant

...which is great in a lot of ways, but is also difficult cause we can go all over the place
#
aaronpk
...had a lot of discussion on the mailing list and on the telcon last week
#
aaronpk
...one of the big items of feedback is the format of the requirements we have is probably not sufficient to develop a candicate proposal for
#
Zakim
+ +1.408.335.aaee
#
aaronpk
...in discussion with teh other chairs, in order to move forward, we proposed a mechanism and schedule for pushing the process forward
#
aaronpk
...the idea is in three steps
#
aaronpk
...first step is take the list of requirements we have now,
#
aaronpk
...things like creating social connections, posting new content, repsonding to content
#
aaronpk
...using each fo the high level groupings to create a user story
#
aaronpk
...we have about 10 high level groupings, so we create a set of 10 user stories
#
aaronpk
...would have those ready to go for next week, Feb 10
#
aaronpk
...and then if we generate more user stories in that time that's great, btu can definitely commit to taking the requirements we have and turning them into user stories
#
aaronpk
...will be doing this on the wiki so people can review
#
aaronpk
...we'l talk about it next week Feb 10, and over the week of 10-17 working group participants will use +1 -1 +0 voting on the wiki page
#
aaronpk
...to upvote/downvote user stories
#
aaronpk
...on 17 feb we come out with a set of 0-10 user stories that we use to measure our candidate proposals
#
aaronpk
...there's nothing in this keeping us from developing candidate proposals
#
aaronpk
...from the point of view of the chairs and w3c team, if we have a good set of user stories we agree on, it will be much easier t oaccept the validitiy of proposals that come in
#

#
aaronpk
AnnB: i feel like the IG failed the WG in that we were supposed to define a bunch of use cases but it didn't happen
#
AdamB
how does the swat0 use case differ from something like this: https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialig/Use_Case_TF/Profile_Use_Cases/Social_Profile_Creation
#
aaronpk
...adam and I have spent some time int he last couple days, we have a ton of use cases described in a narrative format
#
aaronpk
...but we didn't get them into a common use case template
#
aaronpk
...after this meeting last week when there was discussion about havsing distinct step 1-2-3 use cases, tried to do that with one of them and adam tried to do a few more
#
aaronpk
...my question is your call now for user stories, is that comparable to use cases?
#
aaronpk
...what more oculd we do here to be useful
#
aaronpk
eprodrom: i think the idea behind user stories is 3-5 sentence paragraph that talks about a process someone goes through satisfying a need
#
aaronpk
...there may be multiple functional points in that process, but we're talking abotu end users satisfying requirements using a particular tool
#
aaronpk
...also does anyone have an understanding of user stories that is far different fomr that?
#
aaronpk
tantek: there is a key implicit question of "why"
#
aaronpk
...it's good to document in steps, ann's example of social profile creation is a good step in that direction
#
aaronpk
...when evan and i developed swat0 years ago, there was a clear motivation of why behind the user story
#
aaronpk
...this is osmething people do today, they take pictures and post them and tag each other
#
aaronpk
...it was based on existing behavior
#
aaronpk
...the why is an important aspect of any use case
#
aaronpk
...the example ann posted of social profile creation, people are creating profiles all the time, its' useful to ask why are they doing that
#
aaronpk
...there are no service where you just createa profile for its own sake, you're doing it for a reason
#
aaronpk
AnnB: i was thinking the narrative in these describes the why
#
aaronpk
...in the case of profile, pretty much all other actions depend on the profile being createdin the first place
#
aaronpk
... were trying to boil it down into twitter-like succinct steps
#
aaronpk
...we have some exmaples out there, would be useful to get some feedback now
#
aaronpk
...would be interested to know how these are different from user stories
#
tantek
note that last week there was consensus about requiring "tweetable" summaries of use-cases / user-stories, so I summarized as such for SWAT0: http://tantek.com/2015/029/t1/swat0-posts-tags-mobile-photo-comment and in tweet form: https://twitter.com/t/status/560921112767242241

#
aaronpk
AnnB: might be too brief. in some cases we might get stuck tyring to make it too short
#
sandro
KevinMarks, you mean like a screenshot of twitter rejecting your really long tweet? :-)
#
aaronpk
tantek: the point is if it feels like it's not fittin,g it probably needs to be broken into multiple stories
#

#
tantek
ack sandro
#
Zakim
sees no one on the speaker queue
#
aaronpk
...but perhaps we should expand our horizons now
#
aaronpk
sandro: mostly want to ask evan about this, thought i heard him volunteering to rethink the requiremetns into a corresponding set of use cases
#
aaronpk
...while I love the precision of the profile use case and swat0, but even sketching out briefly to find out if that's what people want out of the WG
#
AnnB
seems to me there needs to be more than SWAT0
#
aaronpk
...once we have that we can delve more into fleshing them out
#
AnnB
but which?
#
AnnB
and how do they get approved?

thanks tantek!

...there's a federation case in the profile use case, but I don't think federation is applicable to social API so not somtehing we'll deal with this time around

bblfish: the "tweet" constraint is a deliberate forcing function for simplification, and reducing "essays" which tend to otherwise occur

bblfish, you typed too many words without commas; I suspect you forgot to start with 'to ...'

...that voting should include: +1 you would use that yourself, but also +1 you would implement that in a client or +1 you would implement that on a server
#
sandro
+1 voting should be about whether you'll implement on server, implement on client, buy products using it, ... etc, or somehow see it as harmful or problematic.

#
aaronpk
...this seems like the best way forward
#
aaronpk
...we don't have to accept all the user storeies
#
aaronpk
...what we didn't want is open-ended user stories
#
aaronpk
...what we wanted is user stories that we use to psuh out the API draft and know the benchmarks of it
#
Zakim
sees eprodrom, sandro on the speaker queue
#
aaronpk
...at least a rough consensus
#
AnnB
right, sandro .. my point is I don't want something ranked lower because I don't vote that I will implement it
#
jaakko
my team would like to be building a prototype in the upcoming weeks but we're still uncertain about the technology choices. we have the user story and source data to be consumed and published in a activity stream. what would be the best way to go about building a proto?
#
aaronpk
...we did rat-hole really badly last week, we had users bringing up implementation level details abotu how they wanted the plumbing to work
#
aaronpk
...we dont' want to do that in the user stories
#
aaronpk
...they have to be implementation independent at this point
#
aaronpk
...let's try to stay on focus on the mailing list, and if people want to have more technical discussions about plumbing, that's off topic for the WG and you can do that in the IG

#

Again, we had to do this because we didn't have agreement on requirement list
#
aaronpk
...it was my intention to get candidate stories up ASAP, if you have something you'd like to throw in there you can do it
#
aaronpk
...I did not mean t osuggest it was not ok to add user stories
#
Zakim
sees no one on the speaker queue
#
harry
So rough consensus on a small set of user-stories seems reasonable to push through
#
AnnB
btw, I agree with bblfish that this discussion is kind of confusing .. sounds like the chairs had some discussion on the side, and have a plan
#
aaronpk
tantek: okay does that help clarify the proposal?
#
aaronpk
...does everyone understand this week vs next week?
#
harry
Yes, chairs have regular meetings, that's normal AnnB

Text I had was " PROPOSED by 10 Feb user stories on wiki to be voted on between 10-17 Feb with approval on 17 Feb"
#
bblfish
that's fine, just trying to get the understanding of the timetable clear.
#
bblfish
When can we expect the first stories to be down?
#
harry
particularly when Working Group needs to focus on getting chartered deliverables though.
#
eprodrom
+1
#
AnnB
of course harry
#
dromasca
+1
#
eprodrom
bblfish I can't commit to having them ready before 10 Feb
#
AnnB
+1 (I think)
#
sandro
+1 with "votes" being feedback about user stories, and who cares about them, more than up-vs-down
#
eprodrom
But I will try to work on them in the next 48 hours
#
AdamB
+1
#
bblfish
+1 though we need to have some template stories up a.s.a.p so that we know how people want to write up u.stories
#
tantek
+1 for "I would use this user story personally", +1 would implement this story on the client, +1 for would implement on the server
#
AnnB
oh .. that's not what I thought this vote was about
#
aaronpk
???: we'l see a few user stories come out as most exciting
#
tantek

#
aaronpk

#

RESOLVED: accept evan's proposal for the next two weeks. week 1 is to propose user stories on the wiki, week 2 is to vote on them
#
aaronpk
bblfish: evan just wrote that he won't have anything up by the 10th
