At best, we will define "tracking" as a definition of DNT:0 17:24:58 I consider it a feature because it will create more problems than it solves 17:25:00 aleecia: suggests you take the action, see 3.6.1 and 2, and then see if a new text is warranted 17:25:01 q? 17:25:08 Question for the DAA and DMA. Does the DAA still support its proposal from Amsterdam that its language related to advertising and marketing be a permitted use? Thanks 17:25:19 ack dtauerbauch 17:25:20 ack dtauerbach 17:25:45 +[Microsoft.a] 17:25:46 Basically, what I said was that it is not the nature of this process to approach the text as a monolithic thing. This is a conversation. 17:25:50 + +1.415.520.aaqq 17:25:51 dtauerbach: it does seem kind of weird that we can't settle this without the rest of the document. volunteers non-normative text, with Shane 17:25:52 -amy_c 17:26:01 Dan - most of the non-normative text already exists - see the full draft 17:26:06 Zakim, aaqq is me 17:26:06 +Joanne; got it 17:26:13 Unlinkable data has been defined 17:26:13 action dtauerbach to write non-normative text on unlinkability, with Shane 17:26:13 Sorry, couldn't find dtauerbach. You can review and register nicknames at . 17:26:23 What lacks a definition is a description on how to get there 17:26:34 Section 3.6 doesn't have non-normative text 17:26:34 amyc has joined #dnt 17:26:40 use auerbach 17:26:42 instead of dtauerbach 17:26:45 Okay - its on the mailing list so I'll dig it up and send it to Dan. I believe the non-normative text works with either definition :-) 17:26:47 q? 17:26:48 Walter, not sure we agreed on a definition 17:26:50 dsinger, use "auerbach" 17:26:53 ack ifette 17:26:59 My point: I don't see why context should matter. Unlinkability is about the set of constraints under which consumer privacy risks are reduced because data cannot be linked. I'm greatly disappointed if participants want to distort the plain meaning of that term and the accompanying computer science out of crass economic interest. 17:27:00 action auerbach to write non-normative text on unlinkability, with Shane 17:27:00 Created ACTION-335 - Write non-normative text on unlinkability, with Shane [on Dan Auerbach - due 2012-11-21]. 17:27:00 action: auerbach to write non-normative text on unlinkability (with Shane) 17:27:00 Created ACTION-336 - Write non-normative text on unlinkability (with Shane) [on Dan Auerbach - due 2012-11-21]. 17:27:11 close action-336 17:27:11 ACTION-336 Write non-normative text on unlinkability (with Shane) closed 17:27:13 vincent: the definition has been shared with DAA over a week ago with zero response so far 17:27:20 vincent: feedback would be very welcome 17:27:23 action-336: duplicate of 335, sorry for the confusion 17:27:23 ACTION-336 Write non-normative text on unlinkability (with Shane) notes added 17:27:27 rigo, not defining tracking is not an option because it is being used to instruct users to set DNT. If we don't define tracking, this WG is over. 17:27:40 The correct response, if you don't like how the spec uses unlinkability, is to not use unlinkability. Don't fight over the definition. 17:27:52 +1ianfette 17:27:53 ifette: gets that it is hard to come up with this in isolation. there is a rat-hole here. had we defined tracking, that would have an effect on the rest of the document. that said, I do see aleecia trying to move to some conclusion. 17:27:53 For the record, I updated due date when the issue was assigned to me with a due date that was before the current time (assigned to me on Oct 31 with due date of Oct 10) 17:27:54 q? 17:28:16 fielding, we define "Not-tracking" 17:28:27 …we need some option from the DAA, it would be good to have that perspective. I realize it's not as simple as cut-n-paste, but there is a plea here to find an alternative option we can look at 17:28:29 ack rachelthomas 17:28:33 and in DNT:0 we define "tracking" 17:28:54 regardless, it is not necessary to define tracking in order to define unlinkable -- they are not dependent concepts 17:28:54 q? 17:28:56 q+ 17:29:21 zakim, rachelthomas has joined DAAinDC 17:29:21 sorry, tlr, I do not recognize a party named 'rachelthomas' 17:29:34 zakim, RachelThomas has arrived in DAAinDC 17:29:34 +RachelThomas; got it 17:29:48 +1 fielding 17:29:56 rachel: I hear the frustrations, but the concern about the definition of tracking is also long-standing. We understand wanting to continue the conversation, and we can give the DAA defn, but to decide on this without a definition of tracking maybe premature. We need tracking defined as a basis first. 17:30:19 q+ 17:30:20 the DAA document uses the term "de-identified" rather than "unlinkable", yeah? 17:30:21 The procedural problem is that there's a claimed dependency five weeks after the action was assigned. That != the group not taking up an issue on its agenda. 17:30:23 q? 17:30:28 BerinSzoka has joined #DNT 17:30:31 Rachel: Are you repesenting the DAA or the DMA? 17:30:35 aleecia: a conversation on 'tracking' would be very long and would log-jam too many conversations, and it's not my choice as chair to do things in that order 17:30:46 +q 17:30:51 aleecia: please provide text or the action will be closed 17:31:02 rachel: will offer some text before friday. 17:31:06 ack rigo 17:31:08 aleecia: many thanks 17:31:51 rigo: Two things. The unlinkability discussion is 'how to get off the hook', so there is some sensitivity around this (partic. around re-identification). We need a decent std of when people are off the hook 17:32:00 q+ 17:32:04 q- 17:32:17 …and it shouldn't be dependent on the definition of tracking, because it's about how you behave afterwards 17:32:23 ack lmastria-DAA 17:32:30 is it possible that we don't need to define unlinakable? Maybe this is a bigger project for elsewhere in and of itself? 17:32:55 lMastria: with all respect, I know it's frustrating, and challenging, but the reality of the conversation about ' 17:33:11 q+ 17:33:27 susanisrael, I think the "unlinkable" definition is used importantly in the document, for declaring data that is out of scope for compliance requirements 17:33:51 ..about what tracking is, may be long and cause log-jams, but I represent a whole eco-system, and I can't say I am signing up for a way to look at things, that may go counter to some business models, and also counter perhaps to some things we offer as choice 17:33:54 This conversation about whether or not to grapple with definitions of tracking and unlinkability in their full context reminds me of the wisdom of that great sage Homer Simpson: "If something's hard to do, then it's not worth doing." 17:33:57 …I can't say I'll waiy for later 17:34:08 rigo, defining tracking (or not tracking) is necessary to give the header semantics because that is how the user expectation is set 17:34:18 …I do need to know what I am negotiating with. I appreciate that increases frustration, 17:34:22 BerinSzoka: could you be a bit more constructive, please 17:34:40 lmastria, I think we hear your concerns about compliance, but is it necessary for us to avoid definitions at this time? 17:34:43 aleecia; can you clarify how defining tracking might go against the choices for transparency? online or offline 17:34:44 ' 17:34:44 npdoty, I understand, but it's also a big question that could consume a fair amount of time and energy in and of itself. Does need to be defined, but maybe defer that? 17:35:11 lmastria: none of us seem to know what tracking is, at the moment; none of us know the impact without the defn 17:35:17 q? 17:35:29 aleecia: would like to understand more, perhaps an offline conversation? 17:35:29 ack thomas 17:35:30 ack Thomas 17:35:32 susanisrael, I think a high-level definition of "unlinkable" is achievable, and would be useful for the document 17:36:00 my understanding is that compliance requires a company to do X in response to getting a Y. None of that requires understanding the word tracking. 17:36:22 It may not show up in the normative language but it's in the name of the header 17:36:25 tlr: 2 points. We have a few other action items where the mailing list feels that the defn of tracking is a key element. It might be good to talk about the tracking defn esp. since the word doesn't show up in normative text! 17:36:27 +q 17:36:29 q+ 17:36:34 it is normative is TPE and a charter requirement for Compliance 17:36:44 npdoty, ok i accept that. My technical team owes me some answers on this anyway and I will use that to evaluate or try to help. 17:36:52 The assertion that “tracking” does not show up in the current normative language is incorrect. 17:36:54 Saying "tracking" doesn't show up anywhere may be true in the language of the spec, but the otuside world thinks we're defining "do not track" and so tracking is definitely a relevant term 17:36:55 s/it is/tracking is/ 17:36:59 so it is a messaging issue, not a compliance issue 17:36:59 The name of the spec is therefore non-normative language? 17:37:05 In the TPE document, the term “tracking” is used 296 times, including in the title. It is used extensively in the simple form, and in two primary compound forms, “tracking preference” (49 times) and “tracking status” (119 times). 17:37:15 The name of the spec is not normative 17:37:25 fielding, I don't think we are far away from each other 17:37:26 q+ 17:37:36 aleecia, that may be true, but so far all the implementations present the name of the spec (and nothing else) to users 17:37:38 so it seems germane 17:37:39 I'd be happy to provide a definition for tracking 17:37:41 …second, it is always possible that text contributed (early) ends up inconsistent with what gets put in later on, and then it's totally fine for the chairs to re-open issues. We shouldn't take that as a deterrent, and there is risk of circular dependency. If there are concerns about context, let's be open about that, and get it on the table 17:37:50 ack jmayer 17:38:48 zakim, mute me 17:38:48 Thomas should now be muted 17:38:51 unlinkability is a word with meaning. It is used when the writer INTENDS to comit MORE than the current use at anonymous 17:39:27 +q 17:39:27 note that unlinkability has a different and specific meaning in europe. we'll need another name no matter what. 17:39:30 jmayer: propose a possible way ahead: I hear people saying "if unlinkability is a tough defn, they wouldn't be comfortable using unlinkable data for some things". Those a fine conversations to have. Let's not front-load those, and not load them into unlinkable; let's define it as it's understood generally, and then if there are concerns that more is needed in some contexts, let's have that conversation. 17:39:39 q? 17:40:12 Keith has joined #dnt 17:40:21 q? 17:40:22 currently we use "unlinkable" in the sections on Minimization, Persistent Identifiers and in proposals around Short-Term Collection 17:40:31 Zakim, close the queue 17:40:31 ok, npdoty, the speaker queue is closed 17:40:31 aleecia: when we have a defn, we can have conversations, so I am taking the DAA's point to heart, and take a defn, and see how we use unlinkable data 17:40:38 zakim, close the q 17:40:38 I don't understand 'close the q', rigo 17:40:40 …(please don't repeat points) 17:40:41 ack BrendanIAB 17:40:58 zakim, close the queue 17:40:58 ok, aleecia, the speaker queue is closed 17:41:08 brendan: notes that the term 'tracking' is used in normative TPE text. it should be included 17:41:17 q? 17:41:22 ack rachelthomas 17:41:23 It should be removed from both document titles then as well 17:41:24 -BrendanIAB? 17:41:32 The term "tracking" isn't substantively used in the compliance document. If it remains in the TPE document, it's on the way out. 17:41:53 New points please, Rachel. 17:41:54 +[IPcaller] 17:41:59 Zakim, IPCaller is probably me 17:41:59 +BrendanIAB?; got it 17:42:05 rachel: is concerned about a strategy of removing the word from the text, rather than defining it. We are overall defining what it means to 'not track'. 17:42:16 what it means to track is what the spec says you cannot do when a user sends DNT:1 17:42:22 jmayer - it's used 296 times in the TPE 17:42:23 thank you, Rachel 17:42:27 I think BrendanIAB's point is that "tracking" isn't used in the compliance document, but is used in the TPE document which expects a normative definition from Compliance 17:42:32 The word "track" is in the Charter; "Do-not-track" is also in the charter. 17:42:45 The TPE uses terms like "tracking status resource" which is a precisely defined term. That contains the word "tracking" but not in an undefined sense. 17:42:47 Brendan, as you pointed out, the majority of those instances are in a defined term that happens to include the word "tracking." 17:43:05 +1 to Rachel 17:43:06 'Tracking" Preference Expression & 'Tracking' Compliance and Scope 17:43:06 For me, many of the industry have tried over next few weeks to undermine this process, by adding proposals designed to weaken the final outcome. 17:43:07 …absolutely hears that we can change things if the context changes, but notes the context that we're on a short time-frame, and we're trying to close down, not open up, so that's the context, and that the chairs might decide, and that opportunities to revisit may be limited 17:43:18 q? 17:43:19 we cannot rewrite history 17:43:22 Can someone tell me if the title is normative text? 17:43:38 +1 Brooks 17:43:40 Appears "Normative" in context to me... 17:44:32 aleecia: we knew the schedule was aggressive when we started; we hoped DNT could relevant for the EU context, and it's also seeing implementation in browsers, and users are seeing something that does comparatively little right now, and the chairs do get yelled at for beging behind 17:44:39 s/beging/being/ 17:44:42 I think this is just a curiosity, but I don't think the titles of documents add normative requirements on implementers 17:44:44 jmayer - compound form still requires that both terms be defined. Else, why not refer to it as the "Ablative Preference Expression"? 17:44:51 efelten, the group is called the TRACKING Protection Working Group (top of the Charter) 17:45:00 rachel: the EU context is not being answered directly in the WG, but in the global considerations 17:45:08 +1 17:45:18 That's not a normative part of the spec. 17:45:27 rigo: I would agree 17:45:28 q+ to talk about global considerations 17:45:35 Nick, seriously? You feel its appropriate to have two documents that start with the term "Tracking" and never define it? I'm not seeing how that is rational to expect. 17:45:40 ack ri 17:45:41 If you'd like to call it something without the word "tracking," like "DNT Protocol Preference Expression," totally fine by me. 17:45:42 aleecia: some things are happening in the EU because we're late, and there is talk of a workshop and a non-normative document right now 17:46:00 (queue jumping to Rigo) 17:46:07 jmayer, DNT carries the term Tracking - remove it completely or define it. 17:46:12 npdoty: I think we may indeed get to the point where we can not postpone defining tracking any further 17:46:21 Perhaps this is not the right venue to solve global policy issues 17:46:25 WileyS, I wasn't taking any position, I was responding to the question of whether document titles were normative text, which I pointed out was a curiosity 17:46:31 +1 ifette 17:46:48 ifette: the web is worldwide... 17:46:51 berinszoka_ has joined #dnt 17:47:00 efelten, I could find over 30 instances of the word "track" or "tracking" on this group's Charter page... Not all are part of terms that have been defined by this working group. Taking it out of the spec, would to me, seem like we need to re-charter. 17:47:03 We've been over this many, many times: the documents do not need to define the magic word tracking. If you need a definition, tracking is whatever the documents say you can't do. 17:47:05 Nick, I don't believe they are directly but in context they are (as you're basically saying "this document titled XYZ requires these rules be followed") 17:47:10 rigo: there is some pressure from the EU from high up, and they were talking in transatlantic talks. Don't forget the next step is candidate, which is implement and find out what goes wrong etc. Then we have the Global Consids document, and if we can't make it, because of mis-match, we'll come back 17:47:22 q? 17:47:24 s/ifette:/ifette,/ 17:47:25 That doesn't in the slightest turn on whether the magic word "tracking" is in the document title or defined phrases. 17:47:30 jmayer, feel free to put forward that definition then :-) 17:47:33 Global considerations will be a Task Force 17:47:34 Anyways, off to Corporations again. 17:47:38 of this Working Group 17:47:46 q+ 17:47:48 I'm putting forward that we actually get work done. 17:48:00 -Jonathan_Mayer 17:48:01 aleecia: no, the chairs don't 'decide'; we'll have objections come from the group, and the chairs try to find the least objectionable (i.e. the closest to consensus) 17:48:14 …finally: when we get to last call, how fixed is the text? 17:49:28 Aleecia, you said one of two things. Either we do another LC or we make minor tweaks and move forward. There is a third option, which is that it may simply be unworkable 17:49:33 …we need another draft: the LC draft goes out for wider review than the 90 in the WG, and we'll get comments from other WGs, from the world, and from implementers. That's all useful feedback. We might do another LC document, if we weren't even close; or if we feel we can fix the issues, we go through the process to final rec. 17:49:46 ….we might have 2nd or even multiple LC drafts 17:49:53 Process info on Last Call is available here: http://www.w3.org/2005/10/Process-20051014/tr.html#last-call 17:50:21 …there is lots of opportunity for feedback from WGs, external bodies, implementers, and so on: we test and make sure it's do-able 17:50:23 q? 17:50:38 nope 17:50:40 I think that was a fine description of Last Call 17:50:45 …comments from the staff? No 17:51:31 jmayer, most if not all of the ad industry is not in agreement with your position that we should not define track and tracking here in this group. In so much as we are part of this working group, there is disagreement. Just wanted to note that for the official record. 17:51:37 dwainberg: on the process, (q was closed), that was helpful. 2 questions: what is the standard for the least strong objections?that they cannot live, or the substantive merits of the objections. 17:51:59 aleecia: the chairs do try to judge the strength of argument, not the volume 17:52:24 we don't see this as a "magic" term. It's just a term, like other terms. Just needs to be defined precisely to give this group's work context and meaning. 17:52:31 Aleecia, could you elaborate briefly on the criteria by which you assess objections? 17:52:38 aleecia: stating 'we can't live with this' is not strong, arguments need to be grounded in technical merits; the document tries to make this clear 17:52:44 zakim, unmute me 17:52:45 Thomas should no longer be muted 17:52:52 aleecia: the chairs are seeking to find the consensus of the group. 17:53:01 zakim, mute me 17:53:01 Thomas should now be muted 17:53:05 tlr: notes we are off a discussion on unlinkable 17:53:39 dwainberg: on implementations: I get a sense of judging success of a technical spec.,m but what criteria apply to the compliance document? 17:53:39 I believe we have an issue/action postponed about exit criteria for CR 17:53:44 great question! the more clear we are now about criteria, the fewer problems we'll have in the future 17:54:02 it's ISSUE-131 17:54:03 david: Karl said we have to have it testable. I think that is a very important question! 17:54:04 ISSUE-131? 17:54:04 ISSUE-131 -- What should implementations look like to satisfy our exit criteria for CR? -- raised 17:54:04 http://www.w3.org/2011/tracking-protection/track/issues/131 17:54:04 correct 17:54:12 aleecia: ifette has an open question 'what are our exit criteria for the compliance document' which is excellent to consider 17:54:16 q? 17:54:26 (back to Q) unlinkable data 17:54:32 ack fielding 17:54:47 +1 17:54:59 fielding: First, there is no direct dependency of unlinkability on tracking; there is one for the completion of the spec. 17:55:43 …second, on what thomas was saying, there is not a defn right now, but that's not in accordance with the charter, and that would be a problem 17:56:29 roy, would you work with me on such a definition. We need it for DNT:0 17:56:33 …browser UIs use that one word right now, and I can't continue with this tour which feels like the compliance document doesn't define anything useful 17:56:34 ' 17:57:10 aleecia: to summarize, sees defining tracking as extremely important, because T stands for Track in DNT 17:57:22 He means that, since the charter is phrased in terms of "tracking", we need to explain how the document responds to that. 17:57:26 q+ 17:57:31 I suggest we move on in the agenda. 17:57:41 …does not see the charter question. But we had an open question on whether we should use 'do not track' at all; that's postponed 17:57:42 q? 17:57:51 ack WileyS 17:58:06 agenda? 17:58:18 shane: quickly. to refute jmayer's claims that there is a standard, accepted, defn of unlinkability. keep that in mind 17:58:18 wait, Aleecia, did you just suggest that we might reconsider the "Do Not Track" brand? I think there's a lot to be said for that but, as you point out, it's already being implemented in the field... 17:58:42 close agendum 4 17:58:45 aleecia: maybe we need a term other than 'linkable' as that's a term in use in europe 17:59:02 …by Friday, we'll have DAA text. We'll have 3 options on the table. 17:59:22 Aleecia - that is not a EU legal term, correct? I'm familiar with our use of the term in our work with the A29WP with respect anonymizing search log data - is that what you're referring to? If yes, the A29WP put out an opinion paper on this topic specifically. 17:59:22 …3.6.1, 3.6.2, and action-286 output. 17:59:27 BerinSzoka, that was suggested early on (a different brand) with the acknowledged limitation that "Do Not Track" is already a popular term 17:59:57 …monday, we'll put out a request to review, and see if there is anything they don't expect. after that, we''ll go through the call for objections process 18:00:08 TPWG charter is at "http://www.w3.org/2011/tracking-protection/charter.html" 18:00:17 …if we can reduce before the call for objections, great. 18:00:32 …but at this point, we have 3.6.1 vs. 3.6.2 18:00:44 Zakim, open the queue 18:00:44 ok, npdoty, the speaker queue is open 18:00:52 …oops, two more pieces of this agenda item. 18:01:10 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-tracking/2012Oct/0652.html 18:01:15 again, I think there's a lot to be said for rebranding, but... if that's still a live item, I hope we'll give it the time it deserves 18:01:17 …one is regulatory hooks, action ??? 18:01:50 …one is the option of silence; however, power is back on the east coast 18:01:56 zakim, open the queue 18:01:56 ok, aleecia, the speaker queue is open 18:01:57 roy, the trouble of the definition of tracking is that tracking only covers personal data. And to cover, we would have to define personal data.

When you look at the latest definitions floating around in BXL, it is pretty clear that for the most part cookiets etc. are personal data 18:03:00 Aleecia - can you enumerate the 4 options now, please? 18:03:08 I think the end of the thread said that Jonathan and Tom were going to try to combine their proposals. Did that happen? 18:03:12 q? 18:03:15 rigo: also, look at the proposed definition of unlinkable data 18:03:19 aleecia: will be sending the options and question around as final summary, and head towards call for objections here 18:03:21 Aleecia - please see my question above... 18:03:27 rigo: which means that anything that does not meet that definition is linkable 18:03:40 Thanks 18:03:44 issue-45? 18:03:44 ISSUE-45 -- Companies making public commitments with a "regulatory hook" for US legal purposes -- pending review 18:03:44 http://www.w3.org/2011/tracking-protection/track/issues/45 18:03:45 aleecia: jmayer and Tom were going to combine, but…neither can comment now and we have not seen text. doesn't seem to have happened 18:03:57 …will ping them both in email and see if we can reduce 18:04:03 q? 18:04:11 …it's great to reduce options 18:04:14 q+ 18:04:25 Walter, but we will bicker around what is personal data and what isn't.

18:05:47 aleecia: if we have a response saying " I don't comply", then saying "any response indicates compliance" is a contradiction. 18:05:47 q+ 18:05:53 sorry i repeated myself--i thought the first comment had not appeared. 18:06:24 zakim, rachelthomas has left DAAinDC 18:06:24 -RachelThomas; got it 18:06:37 aleecia: two things: Roy will fix the text, and Tom/Jon will be pinged to combine. one week on that 18:06:41 q?

since it is only 'preferred' it's not really normative. 18:14:36 walter, I think the minimization limitations are general requirements which apply to all permitted uses 18:14:37 q+ 18:14:43 q- later 18:14:50 npdoty: even then a retention term would be in order 18:15:05 s/npdoty:/npdoty,/ 18:15:07 aleecia: I think we have a dependency, we need to figure out what is grad. response esp. for security/fraud. it's not clear if grad. response is ssensible here 18:15:14 q+ to say that graduate response is just an application of the already agreed principles 18:15:17 npdoty: if only as non-normative text 18:15:19 s/ssensible/sensible/ 18:15:38 Walter, worth looking at the existing options and minimization about retention before proposing a new option 18:15:39 dwainberg: but the text only says 'preferred' (which is not a must) 18:16:04 aleecia: if we believe that there is nothing sensible about grad. response, we should delete the text entirely. 18:16:19 dwainberg, aleecia, it's possible that we can define the debugging permitted use without a definition of "graduated response" 18:16:19 npdoty: also boils down to whether we repeat stuff or not, I'm currently of the opinion that implementers will not familiarise themselves with the text as a whole so some redundancy is in order 18:16:27 q? 18:16:27 …we had an understanding what that means for debugging, but we're less clear on sec/fraud 18:16:35 ack ifette 18:16:36 ifette: How is it that here we have a dependency but that elsewhere (see our discussion at the beginning of the call on unlinkable data) we think we can define the term as a separate exercise from its usage in the document 18:16:37 …suggests a defn before we move through 18:16:40 +1 ifette's text on graduated response 18:16:43 ... for example, it's only non-normative in my updated text on debugging: http://npdoty.name/w3c/middle-way#debugging 18:16:45 ifette: see thoughts in IRC 18:16:52 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-tracking/2012Oct/0506.html 18:18:18 Walter, agree that we need to settle on repetitions, though I personally think we can separate that question (and probably leave it to the editors) 18:18:31 well, "graduated response" is not an independent term, since it depends on context to have any meaning at all 18:18:40 aleecia: people were having a hard time imagining how grad response could be even relevant to sec/fraud, whereas on unlinkable we have different issues (is it a get out of jail free pass?), so that makes a big difference to the discussion 18:18:48 q? 18:18:51 ack thomas 18:18:53 ack Thomas 18:19:00 zakim, mute me 18:19:00 Thomas should now be muted 18:19:01 tlr: an admin question, what issue? 18:19:05 +1 18:19:10 +q 18:19:10 Graduated response (ACTION-279) 18:19:12 q? 18:19:14 ack rigo 18:19:14 rigo, you wanted to say that graduate response is just an application of the already agreed principles 18:19:19 npdoty: and also, in my experience a mere data minimisation requirement doesn't work in the real world, implementers will need additional guidance 18:19:39 I thought ifette's point in that email was that "graduated response" *could* be defined separately, and then explained in context for both debugging and security, perhaps with non-normative examples 18:19:58 Thomas, that's ISSUE-24 OPEN Possible exemption for fraud detection and defense 18:20:04 thanks. 18:20:10 closest would be issue-24? 18:20:14 issue-24? 18:20:14 ISSUE-24 -- Possible exemption for fraud detection and defense -- open 18:20:14 http://www.w3.org/2011/tracking-protection/track/issues/24 18:20:17 It is, yes 18:20:18 i understood ifette's point the same way npdoty did. 18:20:23 npdoty, i agree it would be cleaner were it defined separately and explained in context. I was just saying that we seem to be taking a different approach here than w.r.t. unlinkable data 18:20:33 rigo, sounds good 18:20:43 rigo: maybe no issue, but action 279. thinks we have violent agreement; the issue is that grad. response as a term is saying what youre kinda expected to do under the data minim and relevance requirements, it's a spelling out of the general principle. the text does the trick; whether we have the term, is less important. 18:20:48 q? 18:20:55 ack Lmastria-DAA 18:21:04 ifette, hmm, I thought you were making an opposite point in email and over voice 18:21:09 zakim, close queue 18:21:09 ok, aleecia, the speaker queue is closed 18:21:28 yes, was short hand and a reference to the game "monopoly" 18:21:49 lmastria: worth pointing out: thinks none of us are here to get out of jail, or other similar purposes; can we stop using this as a short-hand? we're all doing this delb. and in good faith; the term doesn't help us move ahead 18:21:58 Actually, I don't mind "get out of jail" because for truly unlinkable data I don't mind if you ignore the spec 18:22:10 q? 18:22:12 aleecia: apologizes and references monopoly 18:22:23 npdoty, in email I was saying that this particular term could be better defined _in the document_ as a separate term. That's a different matter to "when in the discussions of the WG, in relation to other discussions, do we talk about its definition" 18:22:33 aleecia: skipping to end of agenda and admin 18:22:43 …first, next week is t'giving in the US 18:22:45 +1 18:22:45 I will not be able to join a call next Wed 18:22:49 Topic: admin 18:22:49 I will be traveling for thanksgiving 18:22:52 -1 18:22:53 -1 18:22:53 -1 18:22:54 -1 18:22:54 -1 18:22:55 -1 18:22:55 -1 18:22:56 -1 18:22:57 -1 18:22:58 -1 18:22:58 -1 18:22:58 -1 18:22:59 …-1 - you cannot join 18:22:59 -1 18:23:00 -1 18:23:00 -1 18:23:02 -1 18:23:03 +1 18:23:04 -100 18:23:06 -1 18:23:06 -1 18:23:07 +1 18:23:07 -1 18:23:07 +1 18:23:08 -1 18:23:09 +1 18:23:09 -1 18:23:10 +1 18:23:10 +1 18:23:13 +1 18:23:16 -0 18:23:21 +1 18:23:22 +1 18:23:26 +1 18:23:27 -dtauerbach 18:23:38 -5 in this room at DAA 18:23:39 -0 18:23:48 aleecia: call looks kinda thin 18:23:51 -1 18:24:00 …cancel call? will talk to staff and conclude 18:24:22 Also cannot attend hte workshop.
