PRs

PR207

Thing Link usage examples: https://github.com/w3c/wot-discovery/pull/207

McCool: These are more like use-cases than examples
… another use-case is to expose parts of a TM. Need to add that to TD spec.
… security is changed to no sec. We probably need to explain why.

Farshid: There are no interaction affordances, so there is nothing to secure.

PR210

Thing Link usage examples: https://github.com/w3c/wot-discovery/pull/207

Farshid: error responses are JSON but not JSON-LD. There is another assertion for error serialization format.

PR211

Fix plural terms: https://github.com/w3c/wot-discovery/pull/211

PR168

Add alternative payload format: https://github.com/w3c/wot-discovery/pull/168

Christian: The PR is not ready to be merged. I would work on it and update it if there are no strong objections.

Farshid: two mandatory ways of allowing the same thing is redundant.

Andrea: I also prefer to keep it optional. Our implementation already has the array format.
