Agenda
- Report on General team meeting
- Beta readiness and ArtifactOf URI proposal
- Specification and Technical web page review/cleanup
Report on General team meeting -- Kate
- Various edit passes completed on Spec
- Waiting for feedback from additional members of legal team
- Kate will continue to consolidate edits and requests that edits be saved either in Open Office or .doc format for Word (Word '97-2004) to ensure edits are not lost
- OSI is going to adopt same short form names as SPDX
Beta readiness
- Tools -- Gary
- tools are ready except for one item (see below)
- would like some volunteers to test
- need closure on ArtifactOf URI proposal
- CONCLUDED:
- If there is a known location for a doap:Project document on the web, RDF will use this as the resource URI (i.e. a named node); this will be the value for ArtifactOf URI in the tag/value format
- If there is no known location for a DOAP document on the web, RDF may represent as an anonymous node; in the tag/value format, ArtifactOfURI will have the value ‘UNKNOWN’
- RDF may generate a URI named node for the doap:Project even if document is not on the web, so that single node may be referenced in the RDF graph.
- If translating from tag/value format to RDF format, translator may choose to generate a single URI any referenced doap:Project having name and homepage pair are the same
- Comments: this would make the RDF graph neater, but adds work to translator
- Technical Doc -- Kirsten
- Technical training PPT needs updating due to some terminology change
- Kirsten to send suggested updates to Kim
