WG drafts and note publication

McCool: security doc ready for release today

* TD

Matthias: Thing Description has recent changes merged, any objections to freeze the document now?

Zoltan: what about the recent discussion about "writeable" vs. "readonly"?

Daniel: there seems to be agreement for publication but there was no mention of the readonly question

mkoster: the discussion was not shared by the group members yet

Matthias: there are many outstanding issues that aren't resolved yet

Kaz: we could explain that we are discussing this in our meetings
... can we label the issue?

Matthias: this is for the next iteration
... are there objections to publishing as-is?
... no objections noted, resolved to publish now and address the comments in the next iteration

RESOLUTION: to publish the Thing Description document as of today

* Scripting

Matthias: Scripting API document
... many issues are fixed but there has not been enough time to do everything that can be done
... should we try to resolve now or wait for another review cycle?

Zoltan: there are always language improvements but that can be done later
... good to go for now

Matthias: we can sync the TD and Scripting API documents and publish them together
... is anyone planning review?
... if not, can we resolve to publish today?

Daniel: good to go

Matthias: any objections to publishing the current editor's draft?

RESOLUTION: we decided to publish the Scripting API document version as of today

* Binding

Koster: I believe it's ready to go but only received comments from Taki so far

McCool: suggest we push it out as a note and release for next plugfest

Matthias: we can add the new experience in a short time frame going forward
... we need to speed up in general so we can get to the goal

Koster: I will take time this week to incorporate Taki's comments and make other improvements

Matthias: will also take time to review before next week and freeze in one more week
... security document?

* Security

McCool: it is ready to publish as it is

Matthias: this is a lot further along than the first document
... are there any objections or more review needed?

RESOLUTION: we will publish the Security note as of today

* Binding (revisited)

https://rawgit.com/mjkoster/wot-binding-templates/mjkoster-update-bundang/index.html

Matthias: will you merge these changes to the master?

Koster: will do and send out a link

<mkovatsc> Binding to review (after merge) https://w3c.github.io/wot-binding-templates/

https://github.com/w3c/wot-binding-templates is up to date with the latest PR merged

Matthias: will have an editors call next week but Wednesday is a conflict

Lagally: would like to participate and add industrial use cases

Matthias: ok, will add

Info share: Embedded testing framework

<kaz> Sep. 4 - Media and Entertainment IG minutes

Kaz: There was presentation and discussion about test framework for embedded devices during the Media and Entertainment IG call last week (minutes above)
... CTA orgainization has a project, CTA-WAVE, in collaboration with the W3C Web Media API CG
... document about media related profiles

<kaz-win> https://www.w3.org/2017/12/webmediaapi.html

<kaz-win> https://github.com/cta-wave/WMAS2017

<kaz-win> https://github.com/web-platform-tests/wpt

McCool: will see if there is any applicable testing

<kaz-win> https://github.com/cta-wave/WMAS2017/blob/master/wmas2017-subset.sh

Kaz: there is a test script in the repository
... test suite

<kaz-win> https://webapitests2017.ctawave.org/

Kaz: demonstrated the automated API testing and results page

<kaz-win> https://cta-wave.github.io/WMAS2017/

Kaz: they generate a HTML test report with all the results
... the hope is that we can utilize some of this for our testing

Matthias: would like to see a technical overview, how it works and what we can use in our environment

Kaz: it uses a HTTP REST interface that works based on testable assertions

Matthias: how does the browser test work? does it get JS code for testing or?

Kaz: this site contains many tests included JS codes and test specifications, wa can run locally using any browser

Matthias: how do we integrate with a headless test?

Kaz: we could copy the server code and use local commands
... 3 options are (1) online test, (2) copy the resources to the local machine and access our local server and (3) and copy all the resources to the local machine and run the test script locally on the command line

McCool: will look at it and start a discussion and sub group around the plugfest

Matthias: it would be good to have a framework that can easily integrate new tests

McCool: could potentially use a browser but need to look at the embedded testing methods they use

Matthias: follow up with this in the testing meeting

Dev meetup

McCool: coordinating with Dominique
... asked for 2 tables
... they need a description of what we plan to demo for promotion
... we could compose some tweets for promotional messages
... also need some figures to go with them, i.e. a diagram with an explanatory tweet

Matthias: we should select some figures like the Architecture overview

McCool: can create a directory on github to collect blurbs and diagrams
... including some of the Festo material could be good

Matthias: we should create a permanent place for this we can re-use for all events

<kaz> [Kaz can also provide links to photos]

McCool: please contribute to this
... and review
... we should reply soon, so please review soon and will reply in about 8 hours

Lagally: marketing materials
