if so for how long?... 14:19:11 … from a user perspective Rob came up with some helpful icons 14:19:58 … from regulators perspective we encourage them to have bar as high as possible and consequences for breaching 14:20:22 … this is still an early version and expect considerable changes 14:20:55 ClemensPortele has joined #sdw 14:21:32 Chris: one principle from GDPR I didn't see covered is portability 14:21:38 present+ ClemensPortele 14:22:02 … portability to your own data, to be able to bring your data with you to new platforms 14:22:22 … this should be part of the ethical use 14:22:28 Fran: agree, it should be there 14:22:44 Present+ Chris 14:22:48 Jo: missed in review 14:22:56 Chris: that's another beer you owe me :) 14:23:07 present+ Cheazel 14:23:25 Fran: any other questions for now?

14:25:20 Chris: one of the things I found helpful about GDPR was their guiding principles and clear, separate set of individual rights 14:25:36 Fran: users generally don't know their rights 14:25:49 … this should be governed more by ethos than law 14:26:12 Jeremy: great work bringing this to FPWD 14:26:29 … timing is great and intend to leverage for IoT data project proposal 14:26:43 … especially important with smart home devices 14:26:52 … I'll provide feedback I get 14:27:49 Fran: applying to specific situations will be beneficial 14:28:00 Jo: Ted, how do we ping PING? 14:28:26 Christine Runnegar 14:29:50 q? 14:31:07 s/Ted, how do we ping PING?/Ted, PING pinged me on W3C Auto 14:31:21 Ted rambles somewhat sensically @@link to issue 14:31:23 zakim, next agendum 14:31:23 agendum 2 -- Discussion on defining Convenience APIs with OGC Architecture Board members -- taken up [from ted] 14:32:28 Linda: Chuck can you introduce yourself and give us update on OAB Convenience API 14:32:53 Chuck: I'm concerned we are defining concepts without broader context, including these separate Convenience APIs 14:33:09 … we have a division between data provider and user perspectives 14:33:54 … a Convenience API is similar to analysis ready data 14:34:36 … provider has to deal with unanticipated user. user wants as few variables as possible enabled by API 14:34:59 q+ 14:35:00 q+ 14:35:02 … we are not discussing necessarily humans performing the analysis 14:35:18 ack next 14:35:48 Clemens: we mention Convenience API in our Best Practices document and raised issue recently 14:36:00 … these are very broad, generic APIs 14:36:50 … on the web, APIs are usually more specific for a given problem 14:37:54 @@ 14:38:38 ack next 14:38:41 q? 14:39:31 Jeremy: Convenience API useful for coverage or feature. consumer versus provider perspective helps 14:39:56 … they are typically tailored to specific uses 14:40:13 … as Clemens said, most things being created at OGC are convenience APIs 14:40:21 q+ 14:40:23 q+ 14:40:50 q+ Chris 14:41:05 zakim, next agendum 14:41:06 I see a speaker queue remaining and respectfully decline to close this agendum, ted 14:41:54 Michael: these APIs are for making things simpler and easier, not necessarily tailored to specific use 14:42:11 … they make interaction with data easier and improve understanding 14:42:26 … they are usually designed towards the underlying data 14:42:54 … for a specific set of use cases 14:43:19 … there are differences with generic APIs, convenience APIs more structured to the use cases 14:44:03 Chuck: consider API features and coverages to EDR model 14:44:18 … there may be processing of data before exposing through API 14:44:23 q? 14:44:46 q+ to talk about publisher/user centric 14:45:37 Bill: problem with purpose specific APIs is discovering them 14:46:00 … what are the most popular use cases and how are they addressed with a generic API 14:46:21 … they could be simple mappings or documentation on how to use the generic for specific uses 14:46:56 Chuck: that is the hard part of the problem. it is great to say something is user focused but you need clear understanding of what their needs are 14:47:25 … how much can you standardize a convenience API if it is provider focused instead of user centric? 14:47:32 ack next 14:48:22 Chris: issue is what is in the eye of the beholder - perspective being addressed 14:49:17 … data can be discrete or categorical. where do you draw dividing lines in a modular approach? 14:49:25 Chuck: proper scoping helps address it 14:49:49 Linda: a key part is convenience API is for a set of use cases, making it easier for non-experts to use the data 14:49:53 ClemensPortele, you wanted to talk about publisher/user centric 14:51:27 Clemens: there are just different types of users 14:51:43 … drawing borders is a fine line, not necessarily user or provider specific perspective 14:52:49 Chuck: an API can simplify beyond the modules used to define it 14:53:09 … API can find considerable detail 14:53:12 q? 14:53:15 s/find/hide/ 14:53:39 … need clear understanding of space being defined 14:53:40 q+ 14:53:53 Linda: do you have draft definitions? 14:54:00 clittle has joined #sdw 14:54:08 Chuck: I have some ideas but wanted to get input before putting them down 14:54:11 ack next 14:54:13 present+ clittle 14:54:44 Jeremy: hope discussion today has informed your thinking. we would be happy to review candidate definition 14:54:58 josephabhayaratna has joined #sdw 14:55:16 Chuck: I want to take convenience APIs, EDR, ADE, other APIs and put them together in some abstract architecture and see how they come together 14:55:40 … goal is to create a federated cloud for analytics, how does each component play into that? 14:55:54 q? 14:56:40 Jeremy: one of the things we wanted to do from Chairs perspective, Linda, Ted and I took another pass at refining the charter 14:56:52 … moving from an Interest Group to Working Group 14:57:04 … we know we are not in 2020 but look past that in URI 14:57:15 https://w3c.github.io/sdw/roadmap/charter-2020.html 14:57:42 … scope was refined, deliverables moved around a bit 14:58:29 … plan for Time OWL is to roll extensions into main spec 14:58:46 q+ 14:58:57 Linda: any final anouncements?
