Agenda

• Resolved during past week
  • Resource Shapes #24 - drop oslc:describes
    • Resolution: keep it in the spec
  • Query Capability #24 - need a query resource definition
    • Resolution: don't need it because query syntax implies shape of query response
  • Resource Shapes #25 - how to offer / extend resource shapes?
    • Resolution: added following text to Common Properties section on resource shapes:
      • OSLC implementations that provide Resource Shapes representing resources defined by OSLC specifications are expected to provide the very same information provided in the specifications without changing or removing any of the Properties specified. Resource Shapes MAY include new implementation specific properties as long as such "custom" properties are defined in non-OSLC namespaces (i.e. not rooted at http://open-services.net).

• Status of open issues
  • Creation Resources #5 - programmatic id of create, query
    • Steve's proposal and thread
      • http://open-services.net/pipermail/oslc-core_open-services.net/2010-June/000313.html

• Status of Link Guidance - http://open-services.net/bin/view/Main/OSLCCoreLinksDRAFT
  • Link is just a URI reference: unidirectional and may be untyped
  • Simplified down to three ways to express relationships: Link, Anchor and External Anchor
  • Still a rough draft: will have new revision ready by the end of this week with Jim Conallen's form of Anchor
  • ISSUE: switch core to using only rdf:RDF root?

• Status of Partial Update Guidance http://open-services.net/bin/edit/Main/OSLCCorePartialUpdateDRAFT
