Releases of new working drafts - Thing Description

Sebastian is on vacation, but Michael Lagally has provided a detailed review.

Michael_Lagally: There are a few things that might need a further explanation

Michael_McCool: PRs are ready to merge.

https://github.com/w3c/wot-thing-description/pull/221 has been discussed and agreed

https://github.com/w3c/wot-thing-description/pull/220 Michael_McCool made some adjustments to the introductory paragraph to the Security Vocabulary section so most of it is no longer an ed note

https://github.com/w3c/wot-thing-description/pull/219 - Michael_McCool: Biggest PR - Addressed a mistake in the ontology/JSON validation identified by Michael_Lagally: the value of "scopes" is supposed to be an array of strings, but was mistakenly declared as just a string.

Michael_McCool and Michael_Lagally agree that all three of the above can be merged.

Michael_Lagally: issue number 222 (https://github.com/w3c/wot-thing-description/issues/222), it is not clear what the value of "null" is.
... issue number 216: https://github.com/w3c/wot-thing-description/issues/216: Michael_McCool - there is still some confusion between name and identifiers.

Michael_McCool: I talk about "unique identifiers" rather than "unique name" in my PRs.

Michael_Lagally: We can discuss this issue further in the TD call.
... There are no blocker issues amongst the issues I have raised.

Matthais_Kovatsch: Is there an issue we should definitely resolve before we do the release?

Michael_Lagally: The scope issue one is the biggest one.

Taki_Kamiya: We are going only address non-controversial issues just now, and post controversial until the next release. The above PRs are non-controversial, so we can merge those three at this moment, and others we can postpone to the next release as they are more controversial.

<kaz> Matthias: asks Kaz about the procedure

<inserted> kaz: will check the document using the checker once Taki merges the final changes

Binding templates

Matthias_Kovatsch: What is the status of the binding templates document?

Michael_Koster: It's ready to go with the other ones, but there may be some small updates which I will to today. I would also like some reviews.

Scripting API

Matthias_Kovatsch: I only finished my review of all the PRs this morning. When is the editor's version ready for review?

zoltan_kis: I haven't had time to fix Matthais' comments, but we will spend time this week trying to align the scripting API spec to the TD and security specs.

zoltan_kis: Dictionary definitions in the TD document, implementation descriptions in the scripting API. In the scripting API we can therefore concentrate on the actual implementations.

<McCool> https://github.com/w3c/wot-scripting-api/issues/143

Michael_McCool: What about extensible security schemes and new security schemes? Can extensions be handled cleanly?

zoltan_kis: Yes, this can be handled
... Note that a single element is treated as a string, while >1 elements is treated as an array.

https://github.com/w3c/wot-scripting-api/pull/138

Security

Michael_McCool: Security TF ready for another release. We're ready to push it out. The master branch is ready to be released. Kaz: Please go ahead with the process. If there any issues, create a PR and we can fix it in the master. We didn't receive any comments.
... I created another PR against the TD - do *not* merge that this for this release, we will have to discuss this before release. It is just for discussion purposes.

<McCool> https://github.com/w3c/wot-security

<McCool> https://github.com/w3c/wot-security/blob/master/index.html

<McCool> ready for release to update the W3C Note

Michael_McCool: Above master is ready for release

Kaz: I got some information about testing framework for embedded devices, which I would like to discuss next week.

McCool: We should also discuss which version of TD we are going to use for the online and Lyon Plugfests, and we should discuss timings for that.
