15:04:43<DanC>yvesr, so http://moustaki.org/swic/ is another linked data implementation? do we have a list of those in the wiki?
15:04:50<DanC>and are you going to the WWW2007 workshop?
15:05:24<yvesr>DanC: I am not:-(
15:05:37<yvesr>and, yes, it is another linked data implementation:-)
15:06:01<DanC>does it do GRDDL, by chance?
15:07:18<yvesr>well, it relies heavily on SWI rdf parser
15:07:30<yvesr>and SWI does not support it so far
15:07:53<DanC>do you know where SWI rdf parser request-for-enchancements belong?
15:07:54<yvesr>but, well, in a near future... :-)
15:08:18<yvesr>yes - there has been some discussion about it on the ML recently
15:08:55<DanC>I'd appreciate a link to such discussions from http://esw.w3.org/topic/GrddlImplementations
15:10:13<yvesr>well - it is still in the *early* stages:-) by that, I mean that it has been mentionned once so far I think
15:10:53<DanC>still, I'd appreciate a link... something like "discussion of a GRDDL implementation in swi prolog has begun"
15:12:26<DanC>ACTION doesn't see linked data among www2007 workshops. http://www2007.org/prog-Workshops.php
15:12:31<DanC>maybe it's a dev-day session?
15:12:37<DanC>dev-track...
15:13:11<yvesr>btw, is grddl specific to xslt transformation from any xml doc to rdf/xml?
15:14:20<yvesr>or can is there a mean to plug anything to get from any kind of doc to rdf/xml?
15:15:29<DanC>it's theoretically possible to use other transformation languages than XSLT, but I haven't seen it done much
15:17:19<DanC>http://www2007.org/prog-Developers.php#friday
15:17:52<DanC>A:|Linked Data in the Developers Track at WWW2007
15:18:46<DanC>A:Friday, 11 May 10:30-06:00 for 1H30
15:19:16<DanC>A:see also [http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/LinkedData.html|linked data design note] by timbl, [http://dig.csail.mit.edu/2005/ajar/ajaw/Help|tabulator]
15:19:49<DanC>A:is there a list of linked data implementations in the wiki? [http://esw.w3.org/topic/NetworkedData|NetworkedData] sounds close
15:21:02<DanC>A:[http://del.icio.us/connolly/www2007+semantic+web|bookmarked under www2007+semantic+web]
15:26:08<danja>ericP, you ok for www2007?
15:26:31<DanC>danja, seen this "Geo extension - new template on Wikipedia" discussion? http://www.mail-archive.com/microformats-discuss@microformats.org/msg07345.html
15:26:53<danja>not yet - thanks DanC
15:26:57<DanC>oh. non-terrestrial. hmm.
15:27:00<ericP>danja, i'm scheduled to attend and present. is this for chairing or some other responsibility?
15:27:39<danja>just checking you'll be there ;-)
15:28:09<DanC>ACTION suffers a firefox crash when posting the wikipedia geo thing to delicious. :-/
15:29:26<danja>does that mean the open street map folks will be cycling around the canals of mars..?
15:31:51<danja>phew, those discussion pages are a nightmare
15:35:33<danja>is Oliver Thereaux present? (dunno nick)
15:37:26<danja>no EliasT? grr, means I've got to post a mail anyhow
15:44:08<dajobe>hmm, must think about www2007 planning
15:44:18<dajobe>step 1. get there. step 2. ???? step 3. profit!
15:45:15<danja>;-)
15:46:28<danja>I'll buy you a beer as a start towards step 3.
15:46:40<dajobe>I think I might go to the tagging workshop
15:53:28<dajobe>I guess I don't need to go to a mashup tutorial
15:54:05<dajobe>ahh, so that's what Harry was doing the other day
16:11:14<LotR>how is getting drunk a step towards profit?
16:52:26<yvesr>DanC: i have just been playing with implementing grddl whithin the SWI semweb package: it doesn't seem that hard - I am already able to parse most of http://www.w3.org/2003/12/rdf-in-xhtml-xslts/complete-example.html
16:52:39<yvesr>well, still some work to do though:-)
16:53:15<DanC>cool, yvesr !
21:25:33<er4z0r>hi folks
21:26:36<er4z0r>Little question about RDF: When do I use <rdf:Description rdf:about and whe do I sue rdf:Description rdf:ID ?
21:26:52<er4z0r>s/sue/use/g
21:27:34<DanC>always use rdf:about. (unless you want a much longer answer)
21:31:27<er4z0r>DanC: hmm, as I understood it, rdf:about means "i am referring to the EXISTING resource balbla" while rdf:ID defines resource blabla. So using rdf:about will propably cause no trouble when blabla is already defined while rdf:ID would be a "redefinition". As this situation might not be seldom in the WWW using rdf:about will cause less pain.
21:31:36<er4z0r>DanC: Deduction correct?
21:32:27<DanC>sorta
21:33:08<DanC>the only difference between rdf:ID and rdf:about is syntax. there is no semantic difference. rdf:ID provides some guard against duplication at the XML level
21:33:21<DanC>but otherwise, rdf:ID="foo" is exactly the same as rdf:about="#foo".
21:34:08<DanC>both of them refer to ....#foo , and hence, assert that it exists.
21:34:39<DanC>(that's the longer answer)
21:36:40<er4z0r>DanC: ok, thank you.
21:37:31<er4z0r>ACTION has to do a presentation on RDF tomorrow
21:37:40<er4z0r>just ruling out potential pitfalls
21:40:48<DanC>where are you presenting? can you say?
