libby: by Daniel Resare
libby: mime-directory is the format for icalendar
libby: the test document seems to work fine, so I'm going to try and replicate Dan Connolly's ical2rdf.pl in java using it
libby: but I havn't got around to it yet
 
LotR: far from complete, but perhaps a nice start for a complete set of iCalendar fragments to test rfc compliance
libby: great, this looks useful
 
libby: "This document is a short tutorial on iCalendar recurrence, and how to use this in your Perl programs."
LotR: very much in progress
chaalsMEL: This is why I want to provide some RDF way of dealing with occurrences according to different calendars (every easter, every ramadan are two things that I want to know for practical purposes but can't fit into the existing iCal approach)
 
RDF Calendar workspace
libby: chat about RDF calendaring tonight at 5pm GMT invitiation
libby: please add agenda topics here
libby: a question from maxf: what tools support RDF calendar output that don't support icalendar?
DanC: I'd like to talk about pathcross, travel schedules
DanC: I'd like to talk about value=duration and value=uri
libby: Bill kearney just brought up a problem importing some kinds of apple ical files into outlook (on email though)
gk: My recent interest is in recurring schedule, for access control
libby: next meeting
 
 
Ideas for SWAD-Europe project promotion giveaways?
danbri: We have some $$$ in the SWAD-Europe project for buying some project promotional stuff, like those things you get at conferences and throw away or hoard (t-shirts, pens, mousemats, temorary tattoos, etc...).
danbri: I'd like us to promote the SW, rather than the project itself, and come up with something we could give away to developers etc., that they might actually want or be amused by, and that we could use as bounty/prizees informally...
danbri: Eg. t-shirt to the first developer(s) to get their RDF such-no-so system to pass a certain number of tests...
danbri: Since #rdfig folk are one target audience, I'd be interested to hear ideas from developers here. T-shirts are maybe old hat, but maybe you can never have too many? I keep pushing the temporary tatoo idea but all I get is funny looks!
danbri: Basically it'd be nice to be able to give some small rewards for interesting things folk do...
libby: some ideas - my personal ideas, not endorsed by SWAD-E etc etc
dajobe: "I <heart> cwm" ?
libby: I like danja's idea: 'my other web's semantic'
 
danbri: "The Unstructured Information Management Architecture (UIMA) is an XML-based data retrieval architecture under development at IBM. UIMA will greatly expand and enhance the retrieval techniques underlying databases, said Alfred Spector, vice president of services and software at IBM's Research division."
DanC: hmm...
danbri: See www2002 paper (pdf) (or google html).
