Status animation video

Sebastian: no news
... animator promised to provide update today
... will share any news
... maybe in main call tomorrow
... decided for female voice

How can WoT be better promoted?

Sebastian: review PR from Philipp Blum https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/pull/87

Cristiano: We do have tags on Stackoverflow
... people might want to subscribe to these tags
... another proposal is to have a web chat
... open question on Stackoverflow .. someone should answer

Sebastian: Will look into answering
... Philipp opened PR, merge it?

Cristiano: just markdown document listing action points

Sebastian: move discussion to issue?

Cristiano: Yes, maybe open a dedicated issue for each point

Sebastian: -> PR merged

Kaz: Merging is ok but we should clarify policy for outside contribution

Sebastian: this strategy document does not seem critical

Kaz: Should mark as "Editorial" first
... marketing task force is not working on specification
... hence it should be OK
... should still clarify policy first

<inserted> [Kaz has just marked PR 87 as "editorial"]

Sebastian: input
... Youtube seems relevant

Cristiano: Philipp suggests to contact youtubers also
... DiscordMe seems to be a very famous "chat" channel
... Meetup, used to create physical events
... went to meetups in the past
... meetups seem to be free

Sebastian: Good overview document from Philipp
... cannot be active everywhere but we might focus on some
... Stackoverflow seems promising to me
... I am unsure about youtube channels... how to get in touch with them

Cristiano: Email or Philipp knows some of them
... content should be easy to show
... need more effort to provide better content

Kaz: w.r.t. contribution from Philipp: shall we invite him as invited expert?
... also, talk to Marcom team about stackoverflow

Daniel: propose individual activities ... makes it much simpler

Kaz: Safer to talk to Marcom team

Sebastian: Stackoverflow not meant to act as W3C
... we just want to increase awareness

Kaz: No objections with promoting WoT itself, but we should be clear about our policy. So let's talk to Marcom team first

Sebastian: Invited experts proposal makes sense to me also

Status website

Sebastian: No news

Daniel: Correct

WoT farm

Cristiano: Made updates
... upgraded the interface
... can show it right now
... full-fledged code editor on the left
... browser version of node-wot under the hood
... editor allows you to script, e.g., start sprinkler
... see http://arces143100.arces.unibo.it/
... next steps: create more things
... e.g., water level, weather station, wind sensor, ...
... simulation is shared across multiple users
... working on *private* simulations

Sebastian: very impressive!
... more news/topics/conferences
... none -> adjourned
