Architectural Arguments | Thinking Clearly

by karlcow

HTML is just one of many data formats on the Web. These are all facts that are not open to debate—they are decisions that we made over a decade ago and reaffirmed by consensus of the TAG. Whether or not Ian agrees with the architecture is irrelevant.

Il y a juste un probleme dans le raisonnement de Roy Fielding. Si la dernière phrase est exacte… alors toutes les discussions autour du sujet sont inutiles. S'il y a discussion, c'est qu'il y a une peur de l'effet de la communauté html5 et dans ce cas, cela veut dire que cette communauté est suffisamment signifiante sur le marché des technologies. Elle a donc son mot à dire.

SPARQL Endpoint interface to Python

by karlcow & 2 others

This is a wrapper around a SPARQL service. It helps in creating the query URI and, possibly, convert the result into a more manageable format. The package is licensed under W3C license, and it can be downloaded in .zip and .tar.gz formats from SourceForge (also from Debian).

utf-8 Growth On The Web - W3C Q&A Weblog

by julie & 2 others

On Google's blog, Mark Davis is explaining that Google is moving to Unicode 5.1. The article unfortunately mixes unicode and utf-8 as it has been noticed by David Goodger in Unicode misinformation.

David Baron's weblog: The age of bugs

by karlcow

Lately, I've seen some people criticize Mozilla because a particular bug (often a request for a new feature) that they care a lot about hasn't been fixed, on the basis that the bug was filed some number of years ago (generally more than five). I think this line of criticism is undeserved and seriously misguided. People who make this argument are, effectively, criticizing us for our openness.

Hey David, We have exactly the same critics at W3C. When a spec takes a lot of time, or things are not solved right away. We have tons of reproaches, because the information is accessible.

by karlcow

Illuminating and fascinating reading on Google’s naming policy for disputed places. Commendable that their decision making process, and the process for devising that process, have been so transparently communicated.

Putting barriers in place so that people don't willy nilly extend the Web's core language is a good thing.

c'est généralement ce que disent tous les potentats de pouvoir… va comprendre.
