Andy, thanks for the links.
I'm really disappointed the active shacl community is on discord. I'll
have to take some time to come to terms with their terms of service and
privacy policy.
What would really be nice is if someone (topbraid maybe?) would sponsor
a neutral community list for rdf-shapes that could become something like
the terrific xsl-list that mulberry has sponsored for decades:

I don't know about gitter. But in general chat boards just don't seem to
work as well for open, thoughtful discussion about complex topics.
I take it not many of the shex and shacl people would be interested in
returning to the original w3c lists on those subjects?
I'll be away for a couple of weeks, but hope to pick up discussion
towards the end of July.
Best regards,
--Paul

SHACL reports say what validation found; Jena has a similar reports
for ShEx (ShEx does not define so much in this area).
Also Jena feature emerging:
If you could look at PR 1256 and see if that can be used for your
"informative" validation if not covered by validation reports.

Can anyone point to websites, mailing lists, or other forum where
users are discussing questions, use cases, and solutions involving
RDF shapes (ShEx or SHACL)? There is plenty of technical information
about both languages, but not so much real-world practical discussion.
I recently started exploring the shex and shacl features of jena,
using the command-line interface to begin with. I have a basic
conceptual understanding of RDF shapes, but have never implemented
any applications with them, so am just learning the technical details.
My use cases go beyond simple validation. I need "informative"
validation that will report not only conformance, but specific
defects. I also want to generate graphs from a shape and variable
bindings.
Thanks in advance for advice and pointers.
Best,
