Hello everyone,

Browsing through the mails sent to the list, I've been able to spot some
unsolved problems. As the list is growing, I thought it could be
interesting for everyone to list the "unsolved problems". This list is
unordered (just in the order it came to my mind :)

* It would be interesting to be able to say with DOAP "this project is
  associated with this other project" (Lion Kimbro, lion at speakeasy.org,
  28/07/2004, 16:37 GMT,
http://lists.usefulinc.com/pipermail/doap-interest/2004-July/000027.html);
  to "aggregate projects", ie identify sub-projects, as in the GNOME
  Desktop, or identify smaller components, that may or not have separate
  maintainer(s), but who do not have a separate homepage (Shaun McCance,
  shaunm at gnome.org, 28/07/2004, 21:50 GMT,
http://lists.usefulinc.com/pipermail/doap-interest/2004-July/000032.html
  sqq).

* The "doap:os" bug. First posted by Damian Steer (pldms at mac.com) on
  28/07/2004, 16:27 GMT... Seems that no doap:os doesn't mean "not
  OS-specific"... Other problems is with the requirement (or dependencies)
  a project has in order to compile / work properly.

* What about DOAP files that contain more than one project? asked Morten
  Frederiksen (mof-rdf at mfd-consult.dk) on 30/07/2004, 21:46 GMT. He purposed
  to adopt something similar to foaf:primaryTopic in order to simplify the
  problem
 
(http://lists.usefulinc.com/pipermail/doap-interest/2004-July/000035.html).

* How to associate a (foaf:)Person to a (doap:)Project (maintainer-of, etc)?
  wondered Christopher Schmidt on 30/07/2004, 02:30 GMT
 
(http://lists.usefulinc.com/pipermail/doap-interest/2004-July/000033.html).

Well, here is the end of my list... It may contain errors, but is provided
"AS IS" :)

Cordialement,
Vincent TABARD
