<Arun> I think it would help and act as in index for information seekers.

stephane: talking about a table summarizing challenge and technologies

<Arun> It shuld be part of the doc

<Arun> I feel

mira: sectin 6 ?

section: executive summary

with the table

<MiraS> agreed

<Lauri> Executive section can have the table

<betty> It sounds great.

<scribe> ACTION: steph add an executive summary seciton with a table to summarize [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/08/17-mw4d-minutes.html#action02]

<Arun> Summary with citation is fine.

stephane: extending the tools section of each tech

summary+link ok ?

approved

mira: examples ?
... we should extend the example to illustrate how they are showing strenght and weaknesses

how examples illustrate the points

<Arun> I agree with Mira that the links may not lead to an illustrative example but wouldn't including examples make this doc bulky ?

we should select the best ones ilustrating strenght and weaknesses

<Arun> I do not know of an alternative though

<Arun> Sure, we can try that and see how it develops

<scribe> ACTION: mira to develop one example that would illustrate better the strenght anf weaknesses [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/08/17-mw4d-minutes.html#action03]

lauri: cellbroadcast used to provide traffic info in the uk

very popular

lauri: you have to activate it on your handset

and when doing that, it impacts severely the battery time

stephane: should we mention ?

Lauri: yes but not very used, due mostly to battery issue

this is due to extra communication with the network

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-mw4d/2009Aug/0019.html

mira: shortening objectives to two paragraph

punchy ones

<scribe> ACTION: mira to rewrite the objectives section [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/08/17-mw4d-minutes.html#action04]

<Yoshiko> +q, yoshiko

<Lauri> I agree, add Scope to the Inroduction section

<Arun> I agree with Yoshiko that having Scope in the begining would be better though we can make it crisper

<Arun> The scope sets the expectation right

<Yoshiko> +q

<Yoshiko> agree, let's see how it will go

<scribe> ACTION: stephane to add in the introduction 2-3 sentences to summarize the scope [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/08/17-mw4d-minutes.html#action05]

<scribe> ACTION: stephane to move the current scope section just before the conclusion [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/08/17-mw4d-minutes.html#action06]

<betty> I noted that parts of challengs are: innovation, scalability and sustainability, business model, regulation and policy, which are identified as critical success factors for the MW4D ecosystem.

<betty> It seems that innovation & regulation/policy has been mentioned.

<Yoshiko> +q

<Lauri> I was thrown out from IRC channel, this is re-joining

<betty> Innovation: well establised univ work with local universities to enable local innovation.

<betty> I agree that regulation/policy not in details.

<Lauri> Lauri like to point to an important Mobile conference: Nokia World 2009 taking place in Stuttgart Germany September 2-3, 2009. Here is the link: http://events.nokia.com/nokiaworld/

<betty> I think 6.2.7 is ok.

<Yoshiko> +q

<betty> As long the policy/regulation discussion complies with the scope, I think it's OK.

<Arun> Policy regulation is an horizontal issue, so 6.3 seems more appropriate

<scribe> ACTION: yoshiko to write section 6.3 around policy and regulation issues at the infrastructure level [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/08/17-mw4d-minutes.html#action07]

<betty> I'll propose some sections in 6.2.

<Arun> Nops

<Yoshiko> thanks!

<betty> Thank you. Bye.

<Lauri> Bye

<MiraS> bye
