THE IDEARPAD LINK FOR TODAY IS:
1) REVISED XDI GRAPH PATTERN DOCUMENT AND CORRESPONDING XDI STATEMENT DOCUMENTS
We
reviewed a new version (2011-04-12) of the XDI Graph Patterns document
together with a second document, XDI Statements for XDI Graph
Patterns. The Kavi links for these documents have now been fixed:
The
changes in this version were to the Link contract and Messaging
patterns to reflect a simpler approach to $do structures -- see topic #3
below.
# DRUMMOND start XDI TC wiki page with XDI messaging examples.
2) $WORDS AND +WORDS
Drummond
explained that the semantics of $ words are specied by the XDI TC,
whereas the semantics of +words are specfiied by an open community
process in which the XDI TC or any other body is just a participant,
e.g., a Wikipedia model. This means $ words are very limited set of
"reserved words" that are exclusively for specifying either: a) the
grammar of the XDI graph model itself, or b) the universal requirements
of the XDI protocol.
3) XDI MESSAGING PATTERN
Drummond,
Mike, and Yuriy from the OpenXDI Project have spent time on this over
the past week. The OpenXDI wiki has a page showing the first examples
at:
We
discussed message IDs and message state. Bill explained his rationale
for a sequential or predicatable ID for message verification. Drummond
shared the view that the minimum requirement is for a unique ID, but not
require a more specialized ID.
We
agreed that we should experiment with messaging implementation, much as
we did two years ago with X3 and Markus Sabadello's XDI4J code base.
Bill
noted that there may be encoding issues with some of the data: URIs in
these examples. He pointed out the Data URI converter available at:
4) NEXT CALL
Due
to workload for the upcoming Internet Identity Workshop, there will NOT
be a call next week. The next call will be Thursday April 28 at the
regular time.
------------
ONGOING ISSUES LIST
Each of these is a candidate for the agenda for future calls.
* TRANSACTIONAL INTEGRITY FOR XDI (added 2011-03-24)
Since
versioning, as one example, involves multiple transactions that must
be commited as a group, we will need to address transactional
integrity. Specifically, we need to define how this will be handled at
the protocol level, vs. the implementation level.
* PROPOSED CONSTRUCTS/OPERATORS FOR XDI
Discuss the following wiki page originally posted by Giovanni:
* DICTIONARY STRUCTURE
Mike would like an example of the PDX dictionary as soon as we can do it.
* EQUIVALENCE SEMANTICS
Close on whether we need an additional $ word that is the equivalent
of Higgins Personal Data Model (PDM) semantics of h:correlation,
which is not as strong as $is.
* COOL URIS
Continue previous discussion about the use of standard RDF URIs in XDI:
