Comments on issue 293

Issue 300 - Should title be mandatory in ExposedThingInit?

Issue 300

Daniel: I can see pros and cons

Cristiano: No strong opinion either
… can see McCools points also

Zoltan: Since title is required we might want to require it
… or we keep issue open since we have good use-case

Cristiano: Yes/no decision

Daniel: i think title should be optional, up to the runtime

Zoltan: I don't like up to the runtime, should be standardized
… implementation can reject
