Roll Call
[07:04] Arnaud J Le Hors (IBM): Attendees: Arnaud J Le Hors (IBM) David Green (Tasktop Technologies) Harish K (Software AG) ian green jim conallen (IBM) Martin Sarabura (PTC) Samuel Padgett (IBM) Steve Speicher (IBM)
Approval of Minutes 21 Aug
[07:04] Steve Speicher (IBM): Arnaud: suggest to approve, hearing no objections
[07:04] Steve Speicher (IBM): approved
Namespaces
[07:06] Steve Speicher (IBM): SteveS: no update, waiting response when Chet gets back from vacation (which I believe was just 2 days ago)
[07:06] Steve Speicher (IBM): ...will reach out to them
Resource preview
Proposal to remove Link header option from Resource Preview spec (withdraw proposal)
[07:08] Steve Speicher (IBM): https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/oslc-core/email/archives/201408/msg00019.html
[07:09] Steve Speicher (IBM): SamP: proposal was to originally take it out, removing extra options for discovering it
[07:10] Steve Speicher (IBM): ...Ian raised the point on how it would be discovered in non-RDF sources (resources), so Link header is needed
[07:10] Steve Speicher (IBM): ...John went on to say that it would possibly make sense to up the conformance level to MUST have Link header
[07:11] Steve Speicher (IBM): ...Can use Prefer to optimize out the HEAD + follow Link header for preview
[07:13] Steve Speicher (IBM): MartinS: want to know what the policy to remove the extra hop?
[07:14] John Arwe (IBM): "morning"
[07:15] Steve Speicher (IBM): SteveS: various implementation experience has shown, either pre-fetching or on-demand, still produces a noticeable delay
[07:16] Steve Speicher (IBM): MartinS: believe that with newer applications, the could be built to better deal with this to avoid the slowness
Proposal: make Link header a MUST from Resource Preview spec (#6)
[07:16] jim conallen (IBM): +1
[07:17] Samuel Padgett (IBM): +1
[07:17] ian green: +1
[07:17] Martin Sarabura (PTC): +1
[07:17] Steve Speicher (IBM): Ian: getting clarity that it would only be a MUST if and only if the resource supports preview
[07:17] Steve Speicher (IBM): +1
[07:17] John Arwe (IBM): +1
[07:17] David Green (Tasktop Technologies): +1 (advisory)
[07:18] Arnaud J Le Hors (IBM): Resolved: make Link header a MUST from Resource Preview spec (#6)
Proposal to move "Displaying a Preview" guidance into separate committee note
[07:18] Samuel Padgett (IBM): https://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control/browse/wsvn/oslc-core/specs/resource-preview.html#display
[07:19] Steve Speicher (IBM): SamP: Pasted section in reference, this was taken directly from 2.0 spec and very desktop focus (nothing for mobile), very prescriptive on how the preview should be displayed
[07:20] Steve Speicher (IBM): ...suggest this be in a non-standards track doc
[07:20] Arnaud J Le Hors (IBM): The correct link to Sam's email is here: https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/oslc-core/email/archives/201408/msg00045.html
[07:22] Steve Speicher (IBM): JimC: agree that the guidance would be better separate, recently hit a problem with a device trying to render with limited JS
[07:23] Arnaud J Le Hors (IBM): Proposal: move "Displaying a Preview" guidance into separate committee note - section 5.3, except 5.3.6
[07:24] Martin Sarabura (PTC): +1
[07:24] jim conallen (IBM): +1
[07:24] Samuel Padgett (IBM): +1
[07:24] Steve Speicher (IBM): separate non-standards committee note
[07:24] Steve Speicher (IBM): +1
[07:24] ian green: +1
[07:25] Arnaud J Le Hors (IBM): Resolved: move "Displaying a Preview" guidance into separate committee note - section 5.3, except 5.3.6
Two possible improvements to specifications
[07:26] Steve Speicher (IBM): Martin Pain's note: https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/oslc-core/email/archives/201407/msg00007.html
[07:37] Steve Speicher (IBM): ACTION: on SteveS to pull together how Shapes and vocabulary should be spec'd, already on some pages such as: https://wiki.oasis-open.org/oslc-core/SpecRoadmap#Outline_.28sketch.29
[07:37] Steve Speicher (IBM): Arnaud: Martin's other point is how to make the requirements very clear
[07:37] Steve Speicher (IBM): SteveS: Sam made these changes within the Attachments spec at https://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control/browse/wsvn/oslc-ccm/trunk/specs/attachments-v3.html
[07:40] Steve Speicher (IBM): SteveS: it was very useful to break it down, such as in the LDP spec, to easily align with test suite
[07:41] Steve Speicher (IBM): MartinS: think that most clients will look to support a scenario and want to see if the service provider conforms to the set of features
[07:43] Steve Speicher (IBM): JohnA: gotten to over time, there are 2 distinct audiences: server implementers and clients/users. Most customers are interested in interop, as 2 compliant implementations doesn't imply interop
[07:44] Steve Speicher (IBM): JohnA: find that it is key to have a section/spec to focus on the normal case the enables interop, just need to make sure to write for both audiences
[07:45] Steve Speicher (IBM): Arnaud: W3C WG generally produces a set of documents for a given technology/concept: spec + primer
[07:47] Steve Speicher (IBM): SteveS: also with the growth of simple REST API docs, some of this audience expects to see how to use it quickly with code-level examples
Consider moving CM-Attachments spec to the code TC
[07:50] Steve Speicher (IBM): SamP: solving common problem on attaching "files" to change requests
[07:50] John Arwe (IBM): s/code/core/ ?
[07:51] Steve Speicher (IBM): JimC: arch management, it would be good as well
[07:52] Steve Speicher (IBM): Arnaud: seems like it would make sense to do so
[07:52] John Arwe (IBM): Anamitra has been looking at attachments already - might well have code in the pipe. Please pull him into any of those discussions.
[07:53] Steve Speicher (IBM): Arnaud: what is used beyond containers and non-rdf sources in LDP?
[07:54] Steve Speicher (IBM): SamP: just adds some conventions on how to use LDP concepts
[07:54] John Arwe (IBM): profile?
[07:55] Steve Speicher (IBM): one man's profile is another man's spec
[07:56] John Arwe (IBM): a spec by any other name would be just as un/readable
[07:58] Steve Speicher (IBM): JimC: would we use a different namespace, moving to core
[07:58] John Arwe (IBM): Anamitra is doing same as JimC - was looking at CM
[07:58] Steve Speicher (IBM): JimC: doing some private implementation, not CM now
[08:00] Steve Speicher (IBM): SamP: it is a new term in ChangeMgmt 3.0, so changing namespace should be ok
[08:01] Steve Speicher (IBM): Arnaud: will continue to evaluate this, will get with CCM chair to confirm this
Status update on various work products
[08:02] Steve Speicher (IBM): Arnaud: dialogs spec is now published in OASIS repo
[08:03] Steve Speicher (IBM): Ian: made a little progress on linking guidance, need to compare notes with JimC and ensure we have it
[08:04] Steve Speicher (IBM): ...taking it to update from submission doc from 2.0 and adding into svn
[08:07] Steve Speicher (IBM): Ian: working through various comments on some automation wg calls, still knocking out a few from email
[08:08] Steve Speicher (IBM): JohnA: have an implementor already working on this as well
[08:08] Steve Speicher (IBM): Arnaud: new business? hearing now
Meeting adjourned
