Topic: Review action item and issues
13:12:49 [ddavis]
Kaz: There's been a problem with the tracker (access is blocked). The sysadmins are looking into it but it's not fixed yet.
13:12:57 [kaz]

13:14:26 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: We can close issue 187
13:14:55 [jcverdie]
jcverdie has joined #webtv
13:14:56 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Next is issue 189 - accessibility guidelines. This is also closed as I added a general requirement
13:15:43 [ddavis]
kaz: Daniel and I had actions to create wiki pages.
13:16:19 [ddavis]
kaz: Maybe mine was 184 and Daniel's was 185
13:16:26 [aldafu]
http://www.w3.org/2011/webtv/track/actions/open
13:16:57 [ddavis]

ddavis: It's visible if you log out (or open in another browser)
13:17:34 [kaz]
[ interesting situation... ]
13:17:51 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Issue 182: Discuss with jc, bin about the details of how to create the cg
13:18:13 [ddavis]
kaz: We discussed this and we can go ahead by proposing a new community group (CG)
13:18:24 [ddavis]
kaz: The question is who would be the chair and what would be the name of the group
13:18:33 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Can we close it?
13:18:47 [kaz]
close action 182

Bin_Hu: Outstanding issues are 186 and 188 which are assigned to Giuseppe (not here) so we'll leave these open.
13:22:00 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: So the wiki page Kaz created is just a place holder? No input or use cases yet?
13:22:31 [kaz]
-> https://www.w3.org/2011/webtv/wiki/New_Ideas new idea wiki
13:22:41 [ddavis]
kaz: right. I thought we could add one topic - audio fingerprinting - which was discussed on the mailing list a while ago.
13:23:16 [ddavis]
kaz: The page itself is a placeholder and I've added a template.
13:23:36 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Is this a standalone page?
13:23:41 [ddavis]
kaz: It's linked from the main page.
13:23:52 [ddavis]
kaz: If you prefer, I can link to it from the Media TF page.

Bin_Hu: Let's leave it there for now.
13:26:08 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Next is to look at and approve the gap analysis note.
13:26:16 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: I asked Giuseppe to create a page which he has done.

13:27:50 [ddavis]
kaz: Maybe we can record our approval in this call and the see what the remaining people think through mail.
13:28:08 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Yes, if we approve it then allow another one or two weeks to see if there are further comments by mail.
13:28:14 [ddavis]
ddavis: +1
13:28:53 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: So I'll write a mail to see what people on the mailing list think.
13:29:02 [ddavis]
ddavis: Any comments about this note?
13:29:24 [ddavis]
resolution: "Requirements from the Media API TF" note approved by meeting attendees.

Topic: 2nd iteration of use-cases/requirements
13:30:58 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: In the coming schedule we have the end of this month (April) as the last chance to submit a use-case.
13:31:09 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: We have no use-cases so I wonder if the schedule is too tight.
13:31:26 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Maybe we can adjust the date from end of April to end of May.
13:31:48 [ddavis]
... Then we'll have another two conference calls before the end of June to finalise the list.
13:32:43 [ddavis]
ddavis: Maybe we can make it clearer to all people in the TV IG that we're looking for more use cases.
13:33:10 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Yes, the chairs told me they want to make the Media API calls open to more people in the group.
13:33:56 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: So we can give more time and higher quality use cases.
13:34:26 [ddavis]
ddavis: It might be good to also clarify how to submit use cases (e.g. by email, through a web form, etc.)
13:34:39 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Ideally people should use the template that Kaz has maade.
13:34:45 [ddavis]
https://www.w3.org/2011/webtv/wiki/New_Ideas
13:35:08 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: But if it's just a one-liner then we can add it for consideration in the conference call.

13:36:27 [ddavis]
ACTION: Bin Hu to add information in the wiki about submitting use cases
13:36:27 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-190 - Hu to add information in the wiki about submitting use cases [on Bin Hu - due 2014-04-09].

zakim, who is noisy?
13:36:47 [Zakim]

zakim, unmute aldafu
13:38:25 [Zakim]
aldafu should no longer be muted

Topic: Possible "Tuner API" CG
13:39:31 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: How many people do you need for a Community Group, Kaz?
13:39:34 [ddavis]
kaz: 5
13:39:56 [ddavis]
... Theoretically you don't need a detailed charter but it's better to have a good description.
13:40:15 [kaz]
zakim, who is here?
13:40:15 [Zakim]
On the phone I see Kazuyuki, ddavis, gmandyam, aldafu, whyun (muted), Bin_Hu
13:40:18 [Zakim]
On IRC I see jcverdie, Bin_Hu, whyun, gmandyam, ddavis, RRSAgent, Zakim, kaz, aldafu, schuki, MarkS, timeless_, tobie__, trackbot
13:40:18 [ddavis]
aldafu: Can we see how many companies are interested already?
13:40:37 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: It depends on the level of support.
13:41:08 [gmandyam]
q+
13:41:13 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: AT&T and Opera seem to be interested. Maybe Qualcomm and ETRI as well.
13:41:26 [kaz]
ack g
13:41:57 [ddavis]
gmandyam: Qualcomm Innovation Center would be interested in this. One concern is that whatever comes out of this group could be too light to make it into tech such as HbbTV.
13:42:24 [ddavis]
gmandyam: Can we get some commitment from the other SDOs to support the output of this CG?
13:42:32 [ddavis]
kaz: So we should create the CG?
13:42:52 [ddavis]
gmandyam: Yes, but you don't have a lot of time.
13:42:56 [kaz]
s/we should create the CG?/we need a WG instead at some point?/
13:43:14 [ddavis]
s/light/late/
13:43:35 [ddavis]
gmandyam: HbbTV, for example, have progressed well with their own spec.
13:43:50 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: We need to move quickly if we want it to be adopted.
13:44:07 [kaz]
q+ to suggest we ask HbbTV guys to join the CG
13:44:10 [ddavis]
aldafu: As I understand it, the HbbTV spec is based on the OIPF spec, right?
13:44:22 [ddavis]
gmandyam: Yes, but it also leverages some tech from W3C.
13:44:33 [kaz]
q?
13:44:37 [ddavis]
gmandyam: But the Tuner API is more specific so they may not be expecting much from W3C.
13:44:59 [ddavis]
aldafu: Mozilla also has an interest to bring Firefox OS to TV so they would need something like this.
13:45:03 [kaz]
ack k
13:45:03 [Zakim]
kaz, you wanted to suggest we ask HbbTV guys to join the CG
13:45:30 [ddavis]
kaz: I think we should invite HbbTV guys and other SDOs to the community group. It doesn't require W3C membership, by the way.
13:45:40 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: That's a good idea.
13:45:53 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Who would be able to contact the HbbTV participants?
13:46:04 [ddavis]
aldafu: I can ask a colleague who's involved with this.
13:46:53 [ddavis]
kaz: So you could start with Louay and Stephan. We could also ask Jon Piesing.
13:47:19 [ddavis]
ddavis: For the record, they're already aware of our interest in this as it was discussed in the TV workshop.
13:47:33 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: From our perspective, which company is willing to drive this?
13:47:57 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Or should we wait until the next call when we have a wider group of people involved?
13:49:24 [ddavis]
ddavis: We could send a mail quickly asking for people who are willing to drive it and then see if there are others in the next call when we can decide.
13:49:47 [ddavis]
ACTION: Bin Hu to send mail to TV IG asking for volunteers to drive the "Tuner API" initiative.
13:49:47 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-191 - Hu to send mail to tv ig asking for volunteers to drive the "tuner api" initiative. [on Bin Hu - due 2014-04-09].
13:50:18 [ddavis]
ddavis: We should make it clear that "Tuner API" is just a placeholder name - not decided yet.
13:50:50 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: I think there are three issues: Name, Scope, Chair
13:51:39 [ddavis]
aldafu: Let me add some name ideas: TV Control API, TV Channel API, Channel Control API
13:51:49 [ddavis]
aldafu: I agree, Tuner API doesn't really make sense
13:52:51 [ddavis]
ddavis: Some people may not like having "TV" in the name, so that it's for the wider web and not TV specifically.
13:53:13 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Maybe "Channel Control API" is a more logical concept.
13:53:42 [ddavis]
kaz: Also "Media Selection" is possible
13:54:17 [ddavis]
Bin_Hu: Anything else to add?
