Press release

<kaz> latest draft

<McCool> McCool: "today products" should be "today's products"

<McCool> ... or "products today"

<McCool> McCool: but we can do a typo pass at the end...

<inserted> scribenick: Ege

Coralie: we can have a quote, not mandatory though
... it should be generic though

Lagally: a comment from a neutral person would be nice, like Jeff Jaffe

Sebastian: I second that

Coralie: I will bring that

<McCool> McCool: another typo: Mozilla WebThing should be "Mozilla WebThings" - I just checked on their site also

Coralie: I think there should be changed made to the last sentence of paragraph 1

McCool+Sebastian: I would second that

McCool: the title should be changed and also it should be Mozilla WebThings, with an s

<koalie> "including proofs of concept for smart cities and retail projects"

<koalie> "including proofs of concept for Smart Dities and Retail projects"

<koalie> "including proof of concept projects for Smart Dities and Retail"

<McCool> McCool: including proof of concept projects for Smart City and Retail

Coralie: (discussing the existing product paragraph)

Daniel: there should be no dot between thingweb and node-wot

<sebastian> change "Eclipse Thingweb.node-wot" to "Eclipse Thingweb node-wot"

<kaz> Node.js site

<kaz> we should mention Node.js as well here, and the spelling is "Node.js" as their site says

<McCool> McCool: (in Node.js)

<sebastian> change "... reference implementation... " to "... reference implementation (in Node.js)..."

<kaz> McCool suggests we use a spell checker to avoid typos later

<kaz> spell checker

<sebastian> move "Further WoT runtime implementations are WoTPy (in Python) and SANE Web of Things Servient (in Java);" to the end of the list

Sebastian: I wrote to someone who is managing the Mozilla implementation, to ask them to give a testimonial
... but the timing is not criticial, we can add them last minute

Ege: it is a bit unusual to see Singapore

McCool: it is more punchy this way and it is not really false

RESOLUTION: NOT change it to Govtech Singapore

<koalie> https://w3c.github.io/wot-marketing/pressrelease-wot-rec.html

<koalie> (^^ reload)

Sebastian: so the press release is finalized!

<koalie> [Coralie departs]

Link Smart project

Sebastian: there is a project on thing directory run by Frauenhofer
... called Link Smart
... maybe we can invite them to a call
... they have a thing directory, a bit different than our solution for the plugfests

McCool: yes let's invite them

Winemaker user story

Sebastian: (shows the slides shown by Christian Glomb)
... The idea is to make a video that follows the scenario of these slides
... any volunteers to sponsor?

McCool: I have left over budget
... any estimates?

Sebastian: (shows fiverr.com) can be for 150$

Kaz: Generally marcom generates these resources
... we should consult them

McCool: I would like to see wot marketing and branding

Ege: Here is a prototype

Kaz: we have to talk with marcom about this as well. so I'd suggest we clarify all our points for marketing which possibly require MarComm Team's confiration/collaboration

McCool: for the video, we should have a script and thus estimation for the word count and time

https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/issues/52

McCool: ege also has an issue about developer outreach

Sebastian: please comment on the issue
