Align namespace for SPARQL Query Results XML Format in recommendation and XML Schema #146

Open jaw111 opened 3 years ago

jaw111 commented 3 years ago

Why?

The current recommendation [1] specifies the namespace as http://www.w3.org/2005/sparql-results# whilst the XML schema [2] uses the namespace http://www.w3.org/2007/SPARQL/results#.

Due to this any XML document using the namespace in the recommendation is invalid according the schema.

[1] http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/REC-rdf-sparql-XMLres-20130321/ [2] http://www.w3.org/2007/SPARQL/result.xsd

Previous work

Errata for SPARQL Query Results XML Format (Second Edition)

Proposed solution

Change the namespace in the XML schema to http://www.w3.org/2005/sparql-results#.

Considerations for backward compatibility

Could break any implementations that use the namespace http://www.w3.org/2007/SPARQL/results# (I don't know of any).

This is recorded in the SPARQL 1.1 errata:

errata-results-xml-1

@afs yes, it is noted in the previous work. I raise this here as previous communication we had noted "the errata document would be input to another W3C working group", which I believe is what this community group is aiming to in the longer term.
