tantek points out the wide variety of syntaxes to choose from, including non-JSON. the charter gives us a first stake in the ground. what we must do is expressing the concepts in some syntax.

#
dret
tantek says we must first agree on conceps, and then we can decide on the syntax.
#
bblfish
I wonder where json without json-ld would make sense
#
tantek
JSON is a good stake in the ground to express the concepts
#
cwebber2
if we don't settle on a standard and a wide variety of serializations are possible, will implementations be compatible?
#
tantek
there is no need for JSON or JSON-LD in practice to build these systems - as many of us have figured out
#
tantek
and deployed
#
elf-pavlik
can someone scribe when dret speaks? computer i use today has keyboard in it lang :(
#
Loqi
it'll be ok
#
hhalpin
Note that schema.org has a large vocabulary and is a deployment success without requiring the RDF data model.
#
tantek
hhalpin: same with microformats
#
hhalpin
So I think it's premature at this point.
#
tantek
huge deployment - no strict RDF data model was needed
#
dret
there may be more ISSUEs connected to ISSUE-7, i guess?

#
rhiaro
namespacing doesn't matter if everyone agrees on one vocab right, like mf2 or schema.org - but as soon as someone wants to coin their own term in a decentralised way (maybe if they want to expand AS2 with a new content type) and describe it, the documentation for that should be some way discoverable, which is why namespacing is useful, JSON-LD or otherwise... as I understand, anyway

#

#
rhiaro
forgetting nitty gritty debates about whether linked data is any good, it boils down to discoverability of documentation
#

elf-pavlik is working on http://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg/Social_Web_Glossary, any help greatly appreciated.
#
hhalpin
I made my comments in the mailing list
#
elf-pavlik
hhalpin: i think i added them to wiki page
#
tantek
rhiaro, I don't think namespaces (like URI bound) are necessary for experimental extension/expansion
#
elf-pavlik
thanks Arnaud !
#
hhalpin
yep, I recommend we use terms the rest of the community uses rather than reinvent new ones
#

Thanks for starting Elf!

next agenda item are the user stories.
#
dret
last week agreed: develop user stories. evan created a first set of user stories.
#
rhiaro
tantek, is what people do with experimental microformats is add eg. an x- prefix?
#
AnnB
seems like a good effort to me, but I'm worried I don't know what "standard" terminology is to contribute
#

q+ re: creating lists of stories where a story can appear on multiple lists
#
Zakim
sees elf-pavlik on the speaker queue
#
tantek
rhiaro - or a vendor prefix -vendor-
#
sandro
"The user stories are intended as the basis for a survey, to help people in the group understand the features others in the group find important or not-so-important. They do not constitute any kind of exhaustive list or agreement about what features are required by API candidates."
#
rhiaro
but if I see someone's x-newmf I don't know how to find out what that's for, even as a human, unless I maybe read their blog or about page or ask them on irc
#
tantek
note that such experimentation has been used with some success in CSS
#
elf-pavlik
tantek, rhiaro can we try to avoid double conversation?
#
rhiaro
sorry, yes
#
rhiaro
laters..
#
dret
goal of the user stories is not to define committed user stories, but more a list of stories people are interested in. they should give input to people putting forward proposals for the Social API.

#
tantek
please keep the stories short too

evan wants to have a flat list as well, if we want to organize, then that should be overlayed and not hardcoded into the list of stories.

#

arnaud claims victory on the agenda item for user stories.
#
rhiaro
tagging lower overhead because you don't need to go fetch urls etc, higher because we'd need to agree on consistent tag names...
#
dret
bill explains IBM connections (and i have a very very hard time understanding what he's saying).
#
elf-pavlik
bill-looby: can you speak little slower please?
#
AnnB
sorry, but I'm not clear on what happened w bill-looby's suggestion to have some user stories about integration
#
elf-pavlik
AnnB: he can add them and then create section with link to group them
#
AnnB
thanks elf
#
elf-pavlik
can you scribe now dret ?
#
dret
connections offers file sharing, wikis, activities for project management, and more things. it has an Atom-based API, it also supports AS.
#
Zakim
-hhalpin
#
elf-pavlik
bill-looby: peopole can just post to connections and let it do all the socializing
#
AnnB
would appreciate if bill-looby could put summary or link later? this would be hard for me to scribe
#
dret
IBM gets many requests for making integration easier. customers want to take a reference to an object in their system, post it to connections, and then have connections track all of the interactions around that object.
#
AnnB
but sounds interesting
#
dret
* annb, thanks for feeling for me!
#
elf-pavlik
dret just wait for generating minutes to put on wiki ;)
#
AnnB
bill-looby: most important 'building block' is "person"
#
AnnB
... and where their identity is stored
#
dret
important building blocks are "abstract objects", with the object being stored anywhere, while the metadata is stored/managed somewhere else.
#
AnnB
.... need to define how to track an object, compared to tracking person
#
AnnB
... plus, notion of "place"
#
dret
(( i am officially giving up for this agenda item. )
#
elf-pavlik
rhiaro i could do low level sctions which we can use as tags with [[#Social Profiles]]
#
AnnB
others can help
#
tantek
has to leave at top of the hour.
#
rhiaro
elf-pavlik Lists is probably easier now we already have examples of that, tags probably just overcomplication.. I think I'm used to mediawiki syntax enough to make links now :p
#
AnnB
... first integration for IBM was content mgmt sys with Connections
#
AnnB
... questions about which "side" supports likes, comments, follows .. etc
#
elf-pavlik
rhiaro those two don't exclude each other
#
rhiaro
elf-pavlik ...although... might be useful when looking at a flat list to see which lists a story belongs to. So maybe both is helpful
#
elf-pavlik
more complement
#
dret
seems like connections mostly needs a robust model of identity and linking.
#
rhiaro
yes ^

here's a good overview on basic scribe commands: Scribe 101: http://www.w3.org/2008/04/scribe.html
#
AnnB
however, I note that the command "trackbot, end meeting" needs to be added at the very end, in the section "After the call"
#
dret
anybody knows the minutes publishing process? http://www.w3.org/2015/02/10-social-minutes.html is there but https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg seems to expect that minutes are available at https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg/2015-02-10-minutes
#
AnnB
wseltzer, or some other W3T member, will probly have to add that
#
AnnB
(I'm referring to my comments about Scribe 101)
#
AnnB
dret, hmm .. I don't know .. are we supposed to manually move them to the toher page?
#
AnnB

#
AnnB

#
elf-pavlik
dret, if you have any issues with minutes please ping me here
#
AnnB
Arnaud, when I gave the "generate minutes" command .. rrsagent responded that it made them and gave a link ...
#
AnnB
.. but when I clicked the link, I didn't have access
#
dret
thanks, elf, i may take you up on that...
#
AnnB
... does some specific person have to generate the minutes for it to happen properly?
#
AnnB
... when dret did it, the link worked for me
#
elf-pavlik
sometimes i do right after starting meeting: rrsagent, make records public
#
AnnB
yes, elf, they are fine now
#
AnnB
I see that
#
AnnB
but, when I first gave the generate minutes command, at the end of the meeting, the link given didn't work, at least not for me
#
Arnaud
AnnB: not that I know of
#
Arnaud
the minutes should get the same ACL as the log
#
AnnB
aaargh; mysteries
#
AnnB
you'd think
#
Arnaud
which is set at the beginning: (9:58:31 AM) trackbot: RRSAgent, make logs public
#
Arnaud
can you access them now?
#
AnnB
when one issues initial command "trackbot, start meeting" ... does trackbot then do all the commands such as invite rrsagent, make logs public, etc?
#
AnnB
(appears that way)
#
AnnB
yes, Arnaud .. I can get to the minutes now
#
Arnaud
I guess it helps to get trackbot to ask rrsagent?
#
dret
does https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg/2015-02-10-minutes look ok? all hail rhiaro for the online thingy!

I have question, or suggestion, for one of the user stories ...

should I add my question into the wiki?
#

or make a link to a talk page?
#
AnnB
or ... ??
#
AnnB
bblfish_, my question has to do with a story you entered ...
#
AnnB
... maybe I should just ask you directly?
#
bblfish_
ok, I am here
#
AnnB
oh, cool!
#
bblfish_
as it happens :-)
#
AnnB
just a sec .. I have to find it...
#
AnnB
on the story titled "Follow a neighbourhood group"...
#
AnnB
... in step one, you call out a "Freedom Box"
#
AnnB
... it seems to me it would be better if you could put a generic term for that type of box, rather than ref a specific tool
#
AnnB
... for one thing, I think it's distracting to link out to a specific tool
#
AnnB
... secondly, I'd like to know what the general concept is for that tool
#
AnnB
... (I can guess, but I'm not the world's top geek, so I might guess wrong)
#
AnnB
... reactions?
#
AnnB
---------------------------
#
AnnB
I also have a question for <whomever>
#
AnnB
what's the point of putting the "Existing Platforms" section on the User Stories page?
#
bblfish_
A a Freedom box is pretty generic. It's just a GPLed OS and the idea is that you should be able to put all your data on it. They don't yet know how to do it.
#
bblfish_
there are some great talks on the FB.
#
bblfish_
Was there not a URL there?
#
bblfish_
By Eben Moglen of the Free Software Foundation
#
bblfish_
It's a way to get the interest of free software developers
#
AdamB
rather then calling out a specific technology or "product" could it be more generic and just say personal server ?
#
AnnB
yes, bblfish, there is a URL there .. but to me, that's what's distracting
#
AnnB
personally I find it interesting, and will go read on my own
#
bblfish_
ok, I am not against personal server. That's what the freedom box is.
#
bblfish_
Perhaps we can say Personal Server ( e.g. Freedom Box )
#
AnnB
"personal server" sounds much more generic to me
#
AnnB
what's the added advantage of calling out Freedom Box?
#
bblfish_
yes, fine. But what about just putting "( e.g. Freedom Box ) " right after it
#
AnnB
similarly why wouldn't you call out some other sort of personal server?
#
AnnB
sorry to be slow; I just don't understand
#
AnnB
not trying to be argumentative
#
bblfish_
IT's all about the philosophy of the freedom box.
#
aaronpk
fwiw I was also curious about the mention of the freedom box brand
#
AnnB
I get that bit, and I'm with you in spirit
#
bblfish_
It's about freedom
#
AdamB
yeah i get that too
#
aaronpk
just seemed weird to mention what is essentially a trademark rather than a generic term like "personal server"
#
bblfish_
transparency of the code
#
aaronpk
even the wikipedia article for freedom box calls it a "personal web server"
#
AnnB
explain that a bit more to me, Henry
#
bblfish_
well its a whole philosophy. What is the point of having a personal server if all the code on it is own by a corporation, and you have no idea what they do with your info there
#
AnnB
the bit about transparency
#
AdamB
i was thinking that we'd want the user stories to be vendor agnostic
#
AnnB
do other personal servers not have transparency?
#
AnnB
why is that crucial to call out here
#
bblfish_
if the source is closed they are not transparent
#
aaronpk
i fail to see why that is important for the user story
#
bblfish_
the Freedom Box does not have a vendor
#
AnnB
(BTW, I'm all for freedom, transparency, all power to the people .. and etc! :-)
#
bblfish_
It's a concept
#
aaronpk
freedombox is a foundation, so it's essentially the same thing
#
aaronpk
it's a centralized authority whether or not they believe in similar ideals
#
AdamB
how is calling out Freedom Box in the Follow a neighbourhood group user story critical to that story?
#
AdamB
couldn't the neghbourhood group just as easily be running somewhere else ?
#
aaronpk
yeah, i thought the whole point of the user stories is that the physical location of the server is not important
nicolagreco and danbri joined the channel
#
bblfish_
As I said make it a personal server if you want.
#
bblfish_
the physical location of the server is important in those stories that make it important
#
bblfish_
it is only the first set of stories where no physical location is noted that they are not important
danbri1 and cwebber2` joined the channel
#
bblfish
it is important because we want to show how a distributed social web is going to work
#
bblfish
user stories are like unit tests
#
bblfish
they contain specifics that are just there to test the concept
#
AnnB
does calling out "Freedom Box" indicate a physical location?
#
AnnB
or, does saying "physical server" lack some info?
#
bblfish
AnnB: I said I am ok with calling it a physical server
#
AnnB
thanks
#
bblfish
I just say you can give an example of a Freedom Box as a physical server
#
AnnB
but reading the subsequent comments, I had the feeling you think some info might be missing .. such as physical location
#
bblfish
well I'd like the box to be in your home
#
bblfish
that's the point of the Freedom Box.
#
AnnB
I see .. as opposed to rented from someone else?
#
bblfish
as opposed to being in the cloud
#
AnnB
aha
#
aaronpk
re-reading that... it seems there is a word missing "and switches his Social Web Server"
#
bblfish
I am ok with the cloud too, but it's good to have a home box
#
AnnB
are those 2 diff user stories? one in cloud and one in home?
#
bblfish
so I want us to concentrate on a box, that the user owns, and that he can plug into his home
#
bblfish
if someone wants to make a cloud user story that's fine
#
AnnB
is the key point that the server is totally under the control / ownership of the user?
#
bblfish
AnnB: that's exactly it
#
bblfish
"the server is totally under the control / ownership of the user?"
#
bblfish
he owns all data, and the point of the FB is that you know you own all of it
#
bblfish
so then there is no magic, we're calling up a cloud service where all the data is actually stored
#
AnnB
FB in this case meaning "Freedom Box" ... (as opposed to, my brain jumped already to Facebook ... omgosh)
#
AnnB
haha
#
bblfish
he's a great orator
#
AnnB
thanks, I'll be pleased to watch that
#
bblfish
now the equivalent of a Freedbom Box for a company like Boing is a Sun Rack :-) ( I'd have said that when I was working at Sun )
#
AnnB
hehe
#
bblfish
ie a really big machine
#
AnnB
so, for the first sentence of the "Follow a Neighbourhood Group" story ..
#
bblfish
the idea is that all the employees would have a profile page, and be able to connect among them and with people from different companies, governments, etc in one click
#
aaronpk
"Boing" hehe
#
AnnB
Gerald McBoing Boing
#
AnnB
(Amer children's book .. was it?)
#
AnnB
anyway .. back to the dang sentence
#
AnnB
.. is it full and correct to say, "Joe and his family moves into a house and switches his Social Web Server running on a personal server." ... ?
#
bblfish
yes, though now you have twice the word Server
#
AnnB
... oh yeah, good catch
#
AnnB
actually, that brings up a small nit of English I wondered about, that someone (aaronpk?) mentioned above .. why do you say "switches"
#
AnnB
?
#
aaronpk
i was wondering if it was supposed to be "switches on" or "switches to" or something
#
bblfish
"plugs in"?
#
bblfish
"switches on his Personal Server running the Social Web Software"
#
AnnB
bblfish, are you trying to get at any concept of moving from a previous service to this one in his home?
#
bblfish
he's move from a previous home, plugged in his FB and has the same domain name as he had before
#
bblfish
so all his contacts and social relations are intact
#
aaronpk
you should probably stop abbreviating FreedomBox as FB, just saying ;)
#
tantek
wait what? that's pretty funny
#
AnnB
I know .. those dang initials
#
Loqi
tantek: elf-pavlik left you a message 2 hours, 38 minutes ago: voilá: https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg/Social_API/User_stories#Creating_new_grouping_of_User_Stories
#
AnnB
although, for me it also implies my father
#
tantek
I was going to raise an issue about referring to FreedomBox at all
#
AnnB
anyway ... back to beeswax...
#
bblfish
it's a habit with gnu folk to "detourner" words
#
aaronpk
we've been through that tantek
#
tantek
specifying FreedomBox is too plumbing-specific
#
tantek
scrolls back
#
AnnB
detourner?
#
bblfish
well if you say Freedbom Box you avoid having to describe a lot of other things, which I now have to describe
#
AnnB
sorry to be such a pain Mr. Bblfish
#
bblfish
"hijack"
#
AnnB
I'm a good 'shill" for people who won't understand
#
bblfish
well then of course the tweet length is more difficult to keep
#
AnnB
detourner = hijack?
#
AnnB
hmm
#
bblfish
not quite hijack
#
AnnB
kidnap?
#
bblfish
"divert"
#
bblfish
transform
#
bblfish
like "gnu" and "new"
#
AnnB
Changer de direction; .. yes, divert sounds like it
#
AnnB
oh man, now we've really followed the bunnies
#
tantek
the point is that "Freedom Box" brings a lot of assumptions that I don't think are relevant to the user story
#
AnnB
(altho I personally love that language stuff)
#
tantek
it could be an XBox, or an AppleTV, or whatever
#
aaronpk
tantek: bblfish was okay with changing it to "personal server"
#
bblfish
those would not have the same meaning
#
AnnB
right; we're trying to tease out what the crucial bits are
#
AnnB
yes, he is
#
tantek
I agree AnnB that specifying Freedom Box is confusing
#
AnnB
I just wondered if saying "Personal server" is full and complete
#
AnnB
we all agree I think
#
tantek
or "home server" ?
#
AnnB
hmm
#
tantek
because it seems like location is the key aspect being implied here
#
tantek
whereas I have a personal (virtual) server
#
tantek
but it's not at my house
#
aaronpk
i like home server
#
bblfish
1. You own the box 2. the software is transparent. 3. when you move it sets up the server so that you have the same domain name 4. It should be easy to use and safe
#
bblfish
5. you put all your data on the box
#
AnnB
one point Henry just made that might be important is that, Joe and family just moved .. and when he plugged in his server, he still has all his contacts, social relations, domain, etc
#
tantek
the "software is transparent" feels out of scope
#
AnnB
doesn't have to port that stuff from somewhere else
#
tantek
AnnB - sure, but "home server" handles that
#
bblfish
mhh, my story does not make enough of the "he moves and keeps all his contacts. " I should add a line for that

no "normal" user cares about "software is transparent" or even has a clue what it means
#
aaronpk
agreed that "software is transparent" is out of scope
#
AnnB
ok, just testing if we've captured the full intent yet

bblfish: I think you'll have better luck with folks supporting the user-story if you go with a generic user-centric label like "home server" rathern than any brand or any other geeky/academic constraints like "software is transparent"

#
bblfish

tantek
I suggest avoiding use of "FB" unless you want people to think you're referring to the Facebook silo
#
AnnB
