Yes, but that is only because HTML could not get rid of them. This is new, no need for legacy.

Replying to @KKjernsmo

There's room for convergence and discussion :-) You posted a file: link in your issue, though!

Replying to @null and @pkrautz

Solving issues in XML is great, but I'd like maths on the Web to be something I don't have to think about by now.
That's no moon.

It may well be, I'm not married to it, I just want something that works!

Replying to @null and @pkrautz

I've been wondering how far just mapping Content MathML semantics to ARIA might take us.

Replying to @dimitribosch

That's Brooklyn fashion for you.

Replying to @solidstateux

But "JSON-y goodness" just rolls off the tongue! @sciencedotai

Replying to @null and @pkrautz

It doesn't really matter what the WG thinks about this. We can make it happen either way.

Replying to @null and @pkrautz

I still have an email from you marked as "needs reply" (sorry!) but I do think it mentioned that?

Replying to @null and @pkrautz

If it's built and has some implementation support, which in this case is possible, objections from whatever groups won't matter.

@KKjernsmo Hey man, whatever happened to your proposal to add Named Graphs to RDFa?

Replying to @essepuntato

That ontology is basically a bug list for us. We want to align with schema.org.

Replying to @essepuntato

Actually, schema.org has a bunch of stuff that’s relevant here, from medical extensions to grants.

Replying to @essepuntato

Here is the entry point for the medical parts for instance: schema.org/docs/meddocs.h…

Replying to @null and @pkrautz

Wow, that’s a lot of information that gets generated there! Inferring that just from the TeX is impressive.

Replying to @null and @pkrautz

This one I couldn’t get to work though, Shift-Enter seems to do nothing.

@ivan_herman @manusporny Are there plans for something like buzzword.org.uk/2009/rdfa4/spec in RDFa in the coming future?
↺ 1

Replying to @manusporny

Well, that’s all nice but it doesn’t really help when your data is to be enmeshed in HTML… @ivan_herman

Replying to @manusporny

We are finding ourselves with a construct we can’t use in JSON-LD because we can’t map it to RDFa. @ivan_herman

Replying to @manusporny and @ivan_herman

Embedding can be done but I don't see how to use that to place RDFa props in a named graph from the JSON-LD island.

Replying to @null and @MartianOdyssey

To go with the flow you have to know its direction, though. If HTML could be utf8-only, it would. @AlainCouthures

Replying to @sangwhanmoon

Haha; I bet you never knew you could run that fast.

Replying to @sangwhanmoon

Oh really? That sounds intriguing. Where are you headed to?

Replying to @null and @MartianOdyssey

Adding an encoding is a lot easier than removing; if that day comes we can add UTF16. @AlainCouthures
It’s true: there are plenty of cases in which you don’t need jQuery. For instance, any situation in which you’re not manipulating the DOM.

Replying to @gsnedders

You’re *such* a troll :)

Replying to @null and @CodepointsNet

Yes, I’m aware of that, but loading up XRegExp just for \p{Letter} is painful :) @mathias

Replying to @hillbrad

That’s a most excellent post, but it doesn’t mention categories (e.g. \p{Letter}) at all, sadly.

Replying to @tobie

Just backup everything and restore it all from backup? In me experience it leaves a few holes, but covers a lot of it.

Replying to @hillbrad

Ah, thanks, that’s great! @mathias is my hero <3. Depressing to see how old that bug is, though.

Then since that's an unpleasant move I'll explain why. That's all I did, or at least tried to do.

I don't think it's that here, though. It's mostly that we haven't collectively figured out the guidebook for open projects.

Rails sort of had that, too. I’m not a fan, I think the downsides outweigh the gains by quite a fair bit. But YMMV of course.

Replying to @i_volodin

Then that’s a bug with the system. It’s an essential rule that humans stay in control of human aspects. @AutomatedTester

Replying to @i_volodin

And that’s great, but the social engineering of it is broken. Similar systems I hacked on for W3C contributions allowed override.

Replying to @i_volodin

E.g. using a comment, maintainers could provide the missing information. It avoids making rules mindless and hostile.

Replying to @almereyda and @_substance

It could be an interesting idea to talk, indeed :) @transcranial

No matter how successful you can still get stuff wrong.

Replying to @jwajsberg

Moi aussi, ça arrive souvent. Pour un petit changement, pour un gros c'est différent.

Replying to @mkuehnel

I don't think it's a reasonable application of rules, given the change. If it breaks their tooling, that's a bug.

Replying to @mkuehnel

Tooling that enforces/requires rules should be easily overridden because people matter more.

Replying to @null and @nhoizey, @t13h37

Carrément!

Replying to @tonylukasavage

The guidelines are great, it's their application I find issue with. And it's not demonising :-)

I'll blog to explain how I think we can collectively fix this.

Replying to @null and @davidlymanning

I am well aware, and I understand the reasons. My opinion is also that the manner in which they are deployed is buggy.

Replying to @edasfr

Dans l'ensemble ça va. Il reste des poches pas top, mais pour ça il faut visiter.

Replying to @null and @davidlymanning

Or through post-commit/PR fix up. Eg if a maintainer comments with "+docs" it's fixed. Tools should enable people.

Replying to @null and @davidlymanning

I actually think it was rude and hostile, and that we need common conventions to avoid such squabbling.
