Sebastian: talked about webpage, also with Coralie

Sebastian: mainly discusses web page topics
… made also resolution abozut URLs pointing to new content
… no objections --> minutes approved

Status Animation video

Sebastian: shared new version via email also
… will play it now in the call also

Sebastian: some gaps, no voice over
… fixed in final version
… story (text) is available already
… I am OK with the video
… hope it addresses many people (with different kind of background)
… Coralie asked whether voice over is final?
… i think I misunderstood the comment.. the voice over will be done by English native speaker
… Coralie also missed W3C mentioning.. i pointed her to the places

Kaz: Video is nice and I am ok
… 2 comments
… story is a bit vague
… giving more details might be useful (no additional scene necessary)

Sebastian: need to be careful where is the best fit and whether the time frame is sufficient
… do you have some proposal?

Kaz: Borrow some text from press release?

<kaz> press release

<kaz> Web technologies enable the full potential of the Internet of Things by interconnecting platforms, devices, and cloud services

Kaz: e.g., "Web technologies enable the full potential of the Internet of Things by interconnecting platforms, devices, and cloud services"
… also "Wot standard" instead of "W3C activity"

Kaz: 2nd comment; ask accessibility people before doing the final voice over
… could ask Josh for example

Sebastian: We are already quite late in the process
… we might expect additional fees again
… this (or similar) video exists for a long time

Kaz: I just fear complaints from accessibility view point once we publish the video
… we asked Josh already in the past but there seems to be more additional content

Sebastian: Kaz, can you ask Josh

Kaz: Yes, will do

Sebastian: IF there are changes we need to decide "who" can pay for it
… Coralie seems to be fine with the current content

Sebastian: w.r.t the additional text we need to make sure that it does not become to much text in the end

Kaz: or replace some parts of the existing text....
… meaning is identical. we can choose

>> general discussions "which" text might be better <<

Kaz: If there is no strong preference we should keep the current text

Sebastian: OK

Kaz: we should change activity with standard

Sebastian: Makes sense
… will inform Coralie again

Status new website

Sebastian: PR https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/pull/104
… proposal for TD task force

Daniel: wonder whether bindings should be part os this task force?

Sebastian: not sure either
… currently its part of this activity

Daniel: makes sense

Sebastian: Not sure whether we should point to the acual TD/Binding documents

Daniel: Scripting does have it.. architecture does not have such a link

see https://w3c.github.io/wot-thing-description/

Sebastian: added both links
… OK to merge?

Kaz: OK with article itself
… wonder whether "Activities" is the right term... task Force?

Daniel: term came from McCool -> let's create issue and discuss it again

Sebastian: Merged TD text

Wikipedia

Sebastian: short note
… spend some tmie working on wikipedia entry
… still under review

<kaz> [adjourned]
