#wilkietantek: ok. evan will chair next week and I will be backup
#wilkietantek: that takes us to the next f2f which is Paris
#wilkietantek: AnnB was noting that we are requesting people sign up and looks like there are 13 participants, 1 pending visas and 2 questionable on funding. that looks like a healthy size of a meeting
#trackbotissue-18 -- We need to know if there are any other products in this space and if there are any dependencies between ldp and opensocial planned in the future? -- raised
#trackbot_issue-18 -- We need to know if there are any other products in this space and if there are any dependencies between ldp and opensocial planned in the future? -- raised
#wilkietantek: (laughs) is this part of the communication problem that we can't communicate on this issue
#jasnellhappy with letting the chairs figure this issue out
#wilkieevan: my feeling on this issue is that IRC and email and wiki are our canonical communication channels and if there are dropped balls we handled them as needed
#tantekProposal: IRC and email and wiki are our canonical communication channels and if there are dropped balls we handled them as needed. For example, concern that not everybody was reading the mailing list which is fixed by bringing up things in the wiki.
#wilkieI write what people say and don't have time to think about what they ultimately mean haha
#tantekRESOLVED: IRC and email and wiki are our canonical communication channels and if there are dropped balls we handled them as needed. For example, concern that not everybody was reading the mailing list which is fixed by bringing up things in the wiki.
#wilkiejperrault: if you go to the link, what we have here is a node-based service similar to the w3 validator except it validates against the AS2.0 spec
dret joined the channel
#wilkiejperrault: intent was 3-fold: to validate the json that comes back from a uri you provide, to validate json format, and validate terms from the spec
#wilkiejperrault: it gives you links that give back valid/invalid json and you can click on them and it will returns errors
#wilkietantek: javascript is required for the links?
#wilkiejperrault: yes, you should enable javascript. you can type the iri in and I can paste some links in irc.
#wilkieeprodrom: this is interesting. couple questions. one of the things we want to do is test implementations and this seems testing available data, which I guess we could use to test output from libraries or tools we have.
#wilkieeprodrom: how does this fit if we wanted to test the javascript implementations jasnell has done
#wilkiejasnell: this is a start that uses that implementation underneath. the intent is to give us something to start with expecting it would need to evolve with api discussions and use cases
#wilkiejasnell: this at least gets us a path to a way of testing at least a AS document
#cwebber2eprodrom: I think you might be dropping in and out
#wilkieeprodrom: one way to see this is if I were to take an implementation and put it so it could be checked with this framework and see the output is valid
#wilkiejasnell: if you have an endpoint up that publishes AS at a public url, you could give that url and at least see the format is correct
#wilkiejasnell: to check behaviors we would have to change it quite a bit. we could do it. this only checks the format, right now.
#wilkiejasnell: the intent is to throw this up on github and make the tests modular so we can add tests as we move along.
#tantekq+ to note that if the validator could have direct <a href> links to the test examples, then a consuming application could use those as test cases
#Zakimtantek, you wanted to note that if the validator could have direct <a href> links to the test examples, then a consuming application could use those as test cases
#wilkietantek: how do we use this to test consuming applications. if all the links you have could just be a-hrefs you could just use those for consuming applications as well
#wilkieeprodrom: I feel like the Person is enough to justify a Profile, or if there are other kinds of profile, we could use other objects. such as Corporation etc having profiles for.
#wilkieeprodrom: the biggest issue that a Person having a Profile that people may have other aspects or personalities
#rhiaroa person can have multiple profiles, but maybe persons and profiles don't need to be modelled separately in the vocab (unsure)
#wilkieeprodrom: for instance, my interest in baseball or poker may have different personalities facing different social areas
#wilkieeprodrom: I feel like it is a complicated and fine-tuned type of concept that can be mapped on multiple accounts
#wilkiejasnell: the multiple personas thing needs to be considered but gets complex
#wilkiejasnell: lots of different ways to resolve this issue and it is not clear to me that there needs to be one way to resolve this issue
#tantekUpdated PROPOSAL: Use Person as profile object to address issues 26 27. Ok to re-open with new information when available, still open to multiple personas e.g. via extension.
#cwebber2I don't have a specific proposal right now.
#tantekRESOLVED: Use Person as profile object to address issues 26 27. Ok to re-open with new information when available, still open to multiple personas e.g. via extension.
#wilkiethis was what I had interpreted it originally
#wilkiejasnell: the way it is currently modeled is that friend-request is the verb, which doesn't make much sense. as opposed to creating a connection between me and somebody else.
#wilkiejasnell: there is a subtle difference and worth exploring. my recommendation is to change them from activity types to object types. instead of friend-request, they'd be a friendship object.
#wilkieeprodrom: the main thing I like about this proposal is that that relationship object can have a whole CRUD lifecycle. it can be created/updated/deleted and that's a nice part of that connection.
#cwebber2having a CRUD lifecycle to an object would be nice
#wilkieeprodrom: it can even have properties that are represented. work-relationship, wife, father, etc.
#tantekAnnB I think we're ok with pushing any remaining items to next week - there are only a few.
#cwebber2fwiw I think this meeting is going pretty well
#tantekeprodrom +1 agreeing with CRUD aspects of relationships as object types
#cwebber2and I know I've been complain'y about us dragging on communicating about communicating in meetings, I think this one has been hitting important points :)
#wilkieeprodrom: the only problem I would have is that in general a lot of the semantics of AS is in the activity types / verbs, and would we be losing some part of the social software by doing this.
#wilkieeprodrom: I think the up-sides outweigh the down-sides.
#tantekPROPOSAL Deprecate "generator" and "provider" in AS2
#wilkiejasnell: I've only seen [generator/provider] used for metadata. I want to simplify and move these down. deprecate them. want to see what people think.
#wilkieeprodrom: I think the big thing about generator/provider.. I'm less concerned about provider.. the generator one plays the same role as an application generator in a facebook stream does. helps identify the application that generated the activity.
#ben_thatmustbemei think its a pretty useful item, certainly something we see examples of (facebook does with "via" links)
#rhiaroyeah, I'm going to add crediting applications to my posts, too
#wilkieaaronpk: I agree with eprodrom on this. the generator is useful to credit the application that was used. I use this to credit applications on my own streams. think it is useful to keep it.
#wilkietantek: we have one remaining issue we will move to next week. we have an open issue from elf, but he isn't here. so I say this is a reasonable progress for the hour. we should go for an hour next week as well
#ZakimAs of this point the attendees have been Ann, cwebber2, +1.978.537.aaaa, aaronpk, Arnaud, ben_thatmustbeme, wilkie, tantek, Sandro, rhiaro, jperrault, Tsyesika, jasnell, eprodrom,

#tantekgiven how productive the telcon was today when we focused pretty much completely on Editor driven issues, I'm thinking we should consider doing all Editor agenda items before non
#tantekI think that will help prioritize our time use accordingly
