q+
14:12:02 [richt]
q+ security prompting
14:12:56 [tlr]
q+
14:13:14 [Bryan]
paddy: a wide range of starkly differing views. prompting is inescapapable given the wide range of apps expected, and unfamiliarity with the app, and the need to make decisions
14:13:45 [tlr]
agreement: "it's difficult"
14:13:46 [Bryan]
paddy: good questions about when prompts should occur, e.g. re lifecycle and obstrusiveness
14:14:18 [Bryan]
paddy: seems agreement on modality, and that we should stay away from user experience proscription

14:15:23 [Bryan]
richard: agrees, non-modal is better. we should use the term dialog instead of prompt. the concept of user opt-in should be defined.
14:15:32 [Kangchan]
zakim, [ETRI] is Kangchan

14:16:33 [Bryan]
richard: user needs to have an opt-in option, but before that the user should expect prompts. Ian made a good comment, about difficulty addressing all cases. But implicit prompting is usedful, e.g. based upon platform filesystem functions.
14:16:48 [tlr]
ack thom
14:17:40 [darobin]
ack tlr
14:17:50 [Bryan]
thomas: leaning the same direction; we know a lot that doesn't work, some that do work, e.g. re implicit concepts such as pushing a button on a camera. non-modalness is important.
14:18:10 [darobin]
ack me
14:18:10 [Zakim]
darobin, you wanted to talk about UI terminology
14:18:13 [tlr]

14:19:26 [paddy]
I can do that
14:19:27 [Bryan]
robin: hearing support for the general ideas, would someone write up the agreement
14:19:40 [Bryan]
robin: paddy has the action to do it
14:19:46 [darobin]
ACTION: Paddy to document the output of the prompting discussion
14:19:48 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-28 - Document the output of the prompting discussion [on Paddy Byers - due 2009-10-21].

s/ISSUE-32//
14:21:00 [darobin]
Topic: ISSUE-32
14:21:12 [Bryan]
paddy: question was having a policy governing access to resources, how to id the resources portably in ways meaningful to policy authors
14:21:59 [Bryan]
paddy: have written down some thoughts and terminology to get the discussion started, e.g. "device capability" which is definable independent of the API's used to get access to the capability
14:22:17 [Bryan]
paddy: next interfaces, which are directly related to the API's accessing the resources
14:22:47 [Zakim]
+ +47.23.69.aann
14:22:51 [Bryan]
paddy: next the "feature" which are the API functional capabilities
14:22:53 [arve_]
zakim, aann is me
14:22:53 [Zakim]
+arve_; got it
14:23:15 [Bryan]
paddy: we have had discussion on using IRI to id the resources

Regrets+ Daniel Coloma
14:23:28 [Marcos]
Marcos has joined #dap
14:23:46 [Bryan]
paddy: 2nd question is whether need to id the capabilities themselves, to allow API-independent policies
14:23:56 [tlr]
excellent point
14:24:17 [Bryan]
paddy: so access to a capability is controllable independent of the API, which is what BONDI supports
14:24:47 [Bryan]
paddy: propose to discuss / validate the use cases and decide how to address this for DAP policy
14:24:52 [Bryan]
robin: any reactions now?
14:25:52 [Bryan]
robin: now this is started, input is requested and discussion. unsure how the policy docs will be organized, but we could paste some of this into a document for review. we will discuss this when Fredric is here.
14:26:04 [Bryan]
robin: anything else on policy?
14:26:06 [darobin]
Topic: API Segment
14:26:48 [Bryan]
robin: item discussed is where do we want the API to hang off of. some inputs, e.g. we may not want to define it immediately.
14:27:16 [Bryan]
robin: so I recommend to wait for more API's to be defined then return to the hanging off discussion

robin: anything else on APany other business
14:32:38 [Bryan1]
richard: "meta-discussion" on the list. any guidelines for list discussion?
14:33:21 [Bryan1]
robin: discussion about how to conduct discussion. we will make easier progress if we edit and them consider the edits, rather than discuss too long up-front
14:33:39 [Bryan1]
robin: sometimes its better to dive in and assess where we are periodically
14:34:02 [Bryan1]
robin: it would be good to have some concrete work done before the F2F, and take a step back at the F2F
14:35:05 [Bryan1]
david: agree, key concern raised by me is that the charter has 10 API's. we need to concentrate on those. new ideas are expected, but the three inputs so far focus on a set of API's
14:35:27 [Bryan1]
david: being royalty-free, we should focus on them
14:36:04 [Bryan1]
robin: there is some gray area due to vagueness in the charter, with wiggle room expected. but we need to wait for concrete proposals and consider IPR issues as they arise
