Re: [Crm-sig] ISSUE Form and persistence of RDF identifiers

2018-01-23 Thread Robert Sanderson

Hi Martin,

Could you lay out, beyond costly and lengthy in person meetings, could you 
describe how best someone might actively participate? In our experience of 
bringing issues that have arisen in the linked.art work to the list, there has 
been some discussion, but no useful resolutions that might become editorial 
work that could be taken on.  The text of the specification, by being managed 
in a word document (it would appear, from the PDF), is not able to be edited by 
a distributed team of volunteers.

Modern specification efforts, including the W3C and IIIF, with linked.art 
following their lead, use github to manage issues, changes and publication of 
the content. A modernization of the specification management practices might 
enable volunteers to be more active, with their efforts recognized and tracked. 
 If this was decided to be a good way forwards, I would be happy to volunteer 
the time to set up the repository and publishing platform.

I hope that helps,

Rob

I would be interested to (re-)read the arguments.  However, I repeat my
assertion above that there should also be a label-free version of each
CRM class and property identifier.  I am perfectly happy that this
should be flagged as being the same concept as a variant whose
identifier includes a label (i.e. "E2 owl:sameAs E2_Temporal_Entity"). 
I'm even happy for the label-free identifier not to be the "preferred" form.

Implementers who want their CRM RDF to be valid into the long-term
future must surely realise that the convenience of a "human-readable"
identifier is negated by the possibility that the CRM SIG might change
that identifier at some point in the future - which you are claiming the
right to do - and so invalidate their RDF.  (Maybe they just need better
tools. :-) Linked Data resources with opaque URIs are hardly unusual:
take Geonames and the Getty vocabularies as examples.)  Has this
specific argument been made before, and, if so, how was it rebutted?

In that case it might be argued that the multilingual labels are not
helpful.  And, in fact, we could not meet the uniqueness requirement for
SKOS preferred labels, since our labels are not guaranteed to be
unique.  What we should have are translations of the full scope notes
for each class and property.

Having thought about this some more, and started to write an RDF-to-SKOS
transformation:-), I have come to the same conclusion.  Also, I didn't
know about X3ML, which I agree is exactly the right sort of approach for
expressing mappings declaratively.

Dear All,

We never continue an alphanumeric designation when there is a 
significant change in definition. You can take for granted that 
continuing the

designation means that the change is not significant.

The case below (P148) should be due to an internal processing 
problem, and will never reoccur. It is characteristically the last 
property of this edition.
The reason, if I am not wrong, was that we got out of sync with the 
ISO version with the latest changes. Since the ISO team does in 
general not respect our
continuity concerns when there was parallel work, we had some times 
the bitter choice between our continuity and not to create a 
different branch from ISO for

typical reasons. Probably should have been explicitly justified.
OK, thanks for the explanation.  Though I don't understand why 'ISO' 
(who, exactly?) was doing active development work on the CRM.  I 
thought that they simply took the SIG's work through the ISO 
formalization process.
ISO working group decisions supersede ours. They will listen to 
arguments of our liaison people, but often it is better to accept than 
to risk another year of discussions about a label.


Since we have discussed for years the issues with changing labels, I 
repeat quickly the reasons:
Labels are taken for mnemonics, and people associate, even they 
shouldn't, semantics with it.
Therefore labels change when they render better the concept and 
serious misunderstandings can be reduced following explicit community 
requests.
The fact that the alphanumeric code is continued, marks absolutely 
clear that this is a change of name and not meaning.
Labels are also translated, and work as mnemonics of the respective 
language.

Therefore labels are not part of the definition.

The rest are considerations of use, and a question of utilities, 
which cannot dictate our practice.
Anyone working in an IT environment should have access to someone 
doing the trivial task of mapping label changes in his S/W,
if he has chosen to include labels in the URIs without "same_as" 
statements. Please consider in your requirements, that continuity of 
meaning is as important as comprehensibility. We cannot follow advise 
which considers only one side of the medal.
I think that this argument is perfectly valid for the 'Definition of 
CRM' document.  However, by publishing an RDFS expression of the CRM 
we are moving, whether we like it or not, into the realm of 
'utilities'.  People are picking up and using our RDFS definitions in 
a variety of ways.  In this particular implementation context, I would 
argue that we should ensure that there is a label-free version of each 
CRM class and property. Also, our guidance on the use of our RDFS 
implementation should recommend the use of this label-free version, on 
the grounds that we cannot guarantee the stability of the version 
which includes a label.
The issue was decided in the 27th meeting, as documented in the agenda. 
We had produced label-free definitions with language labels, as you 
propose, which caused an outcry from implementers that saw only numbers 
and had not tools showing the display labels. Since there is no new 
evidence to the issue, I'd propose to stay as we are and I'll try to 
make the respective discussion thread accessible, so that all the old 
arguments can be read again.


The current RDFS reads, e.g.:
xml:lang="fr">Entité temporellexml:lang="en">Temporal Entityxml:lang="ru">Временная Сущностьxml:lang="el">Έγχρονη  Οντότηταxml:lang="de">Geschehendesxml:lang="pt">Entidade Temporalxml:lang="zh">时间实体


as outcome of a long-standing discussion...


This talk of preferred labels and your mention of the labels in other 
languages leads me to wonder whether anyone has produced a SKOS 
version of the CRM.
Your suggestions well taken, but I do not see what this would offer in 
contrast to the current international display labeling as shown above.


This might be a useful exposition of the logic of the CRM, expressed 
in a format which is widely used and supported.  We could have 
'preferred labels' for each concept in as many languages as we like.  
A SKOS version would be no use for instance data, because each SKOS 
concept is itself an instance, in OWL terms, but it might be a 
powerful tool for expressing relationships between concepts in 
different schemes, i.e. exactly the purpose for which the CRM was 
originally created.  Thoughts, anyone?
CRM classes are not**terms. The CRM is an ontology of relationships. 
Classes are only auxiliary for relationships. Therefore we delete 
classes without relationships. The classes belong to a completely 
artificial language. Therefore I'd argue there is nothing like a 
"preferred label". People must understand the scope notes, nothing 
else.  The purpose for which the CRM was and is created is to mediate 
data structures, i.e. between relations connection "fields"

To Martin’s point about just renaming all the things … that sounds

and datasets, in practice it means that everyone needs to support all 
of the different permutations as there’s always some product or some 
piece of data that hasn’t updated to the most recent version.


It is not about renaming all things, it is about not excluding renaming 
while preserving the identification code.
An unchanged standard is an illusion, a fiction not worthwhile sticking

Making Standards

The good with standards is there are so many!

When you have a standard,

You need to transform to the standard

You need to renew and adapt the standard

You need to transform to the renewed standards

Why not just transform data?

There are too many transformations, you need a standard

One small benefit would be that new serializations like JSON-LD would 
have more liberty to assert their own mappings over top of the 
alphanumeric designations, rather than feeling beholden to the 
labels.  Of course for every other serialization it’s going to be

The challenge is a) to understand that mapping, not the standard is the 
ultimate solution

c) to minimize the needs to map

An interesting investigation would be to try and reuse existing terms from 
well-known ontologies, rather than creating yet another one.

To Martin’s point about just renaming all the things … that sounds easy in 
theory, but in the distributed real world of implementations and datasets, in 
practice it means that everyone needs to support all of the different 
permutations as there’s always some product or some piece of data that hasn’t 
updated to the most recent version.

One small benefit would be that new serializations like JSON-LD would have more 
liberty to assert their own mappings over top of the alphanumeric designations, 
rather than feeling beholden to the labels.  Of course for every other

I agree with Philip [and Richard]

If the domain or range of a FRBRoo property is changed, or there was a 
significant change in definition, we would deprecate the old version 
and declare a new URI. This hasn’t happened yet, but would beg the 
question of what to use as a new URI – perhaps add a version number to 
the alphanumeric part. For that reason we would advise the FRBR Review

Phil,

This is alarming.  I have always assumed that a superseded class or

to replace it. There is absolutely no need to re-use numbers, and I am 
hoping someone will come forward to say that this was a mistake, and 
not a change which accords with CRM-SIG policy.  Otherwise, as you 
say, we can have no confidence in the CRM as a persistent RDF 
framework, whether or not the class and property identifiers include a 
textual component.  Is this an isolated case, or does anyone know of 
other cases where domain and range (and indeed meaning) of a class or 
property has been changed after its initial publication?


(The textual component is, in any case, only meant to be guidance and 
is explicitly stated not to be unique: 'is identified by' below is a 
good example of this.)

Gordon,

Looking at the RDF XML for F10, I see (a) that you make F10 equivalent to the 
full F10_Person, as the core CRM does in its RDFS Schema and (b) when 
subclassing from the CRM core, you use the full form E21_Person:

http://iflastandards.info/ns/fr/frbr/frbroo/F10> 
"http://iflastandards.info/ns/fr/frbr/frbroo/F10";>
...
http://www.cidoc-crm.org/cidoc-crm/E21_Person>

http://iflastandards.info/ns/fr/frbr/frbroo/F10_Person> 
"http://iflastandards.info/ns/fr/frbr/frbroo/F10_Person"/>


So I think there are still issues to resolve in this area for FRBRoo.
