elundberg: merged.

https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/pull/1361

elundberg: questions here. authenticator and client extensions. Should it be both

tony: what do we do here?

elundberg: I don't know

jeffH: perhaps other folks should weigh in on issue #1314/

akshay: I am reading it. you saying we can combine both authenticator and platform?

jeffH: yes.

akshay: how does RP benefit

jeffH: that is question on whether we should have this extension at all

elundberg: it includes user action

agl; can get this info. at registration time and get it later.

akshay: we are saying the platform can be different on different machines.

agl: it is purely about authenticator extensions.

akshay: if you want to put it on the server, don't do the platform extension
... OK

elundberg: sounds like consensu

agl: this is a minor clarification
... we might ask what this does and why anyone cares.

tony: what are implementation chances
... is this a feel good extension

jeffH: it seems we should land emil's PR and worry about things later.

akshay: it is there, it needs clarification.
... i am fine with this

nsteele: if it is editorial change, we can deal with that later.

jeffH: we can later address if extensions are being used or not.

tony: jeffH can you merge
... resolve questions..
... some un-tiraged issues to look at

https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/issues/1355

agl: this is not interesting.

tony: should we close.

agl: I don't think we need to spend time here, put in on tracker

akshay: should we close?

agl: idle for months, we probably should

\tony: akshay close

akshay: yes

https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/issues/1356

dwaite: I don't quite understand the UI flow, it probably won't work

tony: in think he is saying he has a requirement,
... and he can't get around this from a banking perspective. not sure that is true

akshay: he does want to do username and numeration

he DOES NOT want to do

akshay: we can't give you this information silently
... i don't think we can do anything here for this case.

agl: this looks like second factor not resident creds

dwaite: that was my impression\

tony: he says banks are using it now, but there are issues.

bradley: he maye is trying to use non -residental cred for first factor log-in

agl: I am guessing that is correct and is where something is going wrong.

https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/issues/1358

agl: this chap wants to use something that is not allowed on Chrome.
... firefox supports

jeffH: i worked on this a bit, if we work on this in the spec, we should align things.
... if we alter I have proposed spec text

agl: we said no without a spec chanegh

jeffh: this only matters if the RPO is using there IP addresses. it does not happen by accident

akshay: is this just for dev

dwaite: my sesnse is they issue internally

jeffh: how has this been working out for firefox and edge.

akshay: I will check what is happening there. I have never tried it

agl: he could be wrong that it is working

jeffH: good point

agl: not a rousing chorus on this.

akshay: if you are a local host, ...I don't know, it doesn't look good to me

elundberg: I am inclined to say they should be running a DNS, but I am not implementing

akshay: i will check and report back. right now, inclined not to do this

jeffH: can JC check from F
... firefox perspective.

tony: any issue we want to talk about.
... one new on current ctap spec.
... john has #1352 with a PR open
... we have driver extension
... still have trust bridge, iframe...
... we still need use case clarification from Apple

https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/issues/1336

tony: believe JC would check into this one.
... any update?

JCJ_Moz: no update

tony: just a comment here, that this may prevent just in time registration flows
... think this is. coming from the payments
... WG also

jcj_moz: so, still no update
