... Q: who writes TD (end user, manufacturer, ..)...
... also other presentations were very good

Website restructuring

Sebastian: Open issues

<Ege> link on github https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/blob/master/presentations/ASC2020.pptx

Sebastian: website not very clear about task forces
... issue 77
... https://danielpeintner.github.io/wot-marketing/
... overview about groups, task forces

Daniel: describe what task forces are about

Kaz: information on TFs should be put under the WG page or the IG page depending on which group they belong to

Sebastian: current landing page w3.org/WoT/

Daniel: we should harmonize visual appearance

Kaz: Should think about structure first

Daniel: the proposal is about the structure, not content

Kaz: Should think about the whole structure

Daniel: Generic information about what each task force is about should be on the new page, wiki may remain for work internal stuff

Kaz: need to clarify what goes where

Ege: main problem: wiki pages are not meant for WoT interested people

Kaz: need to consider accessibility also

Ege: everything should be on GitHub

Kaz: Should still list everything
... clarify list of resources

Ege: wiki pages were created also without discussions

Kaz: need to talk to all the task forces if we change the structure of the TF pages

Ege: will create MD files that lists all resources

Kaz: newly proposed pages should be upper compatilble to the existing pages, so we need to think about which information on the existing pages should be included in which new pages

Ege: Yes

Kaz: move all wiki pages, not using wiki at all?
... not sure if everyone is happy

Ege: more happy with single style, i.e., using only the Markdown on GitHub

McCool: GitHub is more flexible

Ege: Agree

kaz: as I've been repeating, I'm not objecting and even have been suggesting we should mainly use GitHub README.md for detailed planning, e.g., for PlugFests. However, we need to check with all the TFs to make sure.

Daniel: Next steps, collect list (Ege) and then we look again at the proposed structure

Kaz: Agree

Animation video

Sebastian: Animatar made updated proposal

Kaz: new proposal https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/blob/master/material/proposed-logos/WOT%20Graphic%20Proposal%20C.docx

Sebastian: looks OK to me

Kaz: contrast for "node JS" image is not good enough
... asked for improvements

Sebastian: Kaz has pinged the animator

Kaz: Also shared contrast tool https://developer.paciellogroup.com/resources/contrastanalyser/

Sebastian: Hope we see soon some video samples

TPAC Video

McCool: Issue in issue tracker
... 1. 3 minutes presentation
... 2. Demo video
... started to collect demo video place
... do have presentation draft already
... not yet created video
... share it tomorrow in main call
... only 3 minute video... will use PPTX and do voice over
... will be just a summary of current activity
... slide: goal and use case
... slide: current work items
... at the moment I do have to many slides.. need to do a clean-up
... slide3 about TD

Sebastian: comment about first slide: like comparison with traditional website

McCool: Agree, but we do not have orchestration per se
... like Eges work and will take a look at it
... interop is our goal (not really orchestration)
... mashup is good example
... try to finish the slides by tomorrow
... w.r.t. demo video

Sebastian: new video for TPAC would cool

McCool: my first thought as well, but Ralph would like to see more technical details

Sebastian: OK, but can still share video

McCool: started to list available videos

... suggest consistent style

Ege: will do

McCool: Deadline for videos is Monday

Daniel: Yes, end of September
