Name of annotation motivation in Content State API #57

Closed aisaac closed 4 years ago

aisaac commented 4 years ago

In the current Content State draft's annotation the motivation is selecting . there has been discussion in the call 18-09-2019

Richard: when will the decision be made wrt the motivation? This would be breaking

Antoine doesn’t like “selecting” as a motivation, but accepts we need something that is not a Web Annotation motivation. Thinks it may be too generic, and might be misused by others.

Tom: would be namespaced to the Discovery @context. Agrees it is quite a generic slippery term.

Antoine: namespacing can still lead to confusion and issues in practice.

Tom: accepts that that term might come up in other scenarios that might touch on IIIF.

Antoine: “IIIF Content Selection”

Glen: "IIIF Selection"?

Glen: we need to decide on the motivation before we merge

@tomcrane after I've started checking last call's agenda I've realized that the action to create this issue was on you. But as I had started, I've just finished it. I hope you won't mind

@tomcrane @azaroth42 what would you say of using "bookmarking" in the name (and thus make the motivation of sub-concept of the existing bookmarking motivation in Web Annotation? It sounds a decent fit with the notion of 'selecting' a part of a resource for later access. (from https://www.w3.org/TR/annotation-model/#motivation-and-purpose: "The motivation for when the user intends to create a bookmark to the Target or part thereof. For example an Annotation that bookmarks the point in a text where the reader finished reading.")

Decision at the above call: we test contentState in Ann Arbor and other options and observe reactions.

The contentState motivation is used in the current published 0.2 version:

...so people can see how they feel about it.
