Meeting minutes

Preliminary

meeting will last 2h

Minutes

meeting starts reviewing last meeting's minutes

<kaz> July-19

McCool: since no objections are presented, minutes are published

Cancellation schedule

McCool: next thing to discuss is cancellations, in august no discovery calls will occur

Publication timelines

McCool: regarding the timeline likely we will need an extension of 6 months

McCool: if we add 6 months we will end up in January or Febrary, when we should have the CR transition
… we need also the implementations

mccool is setting up the schedule for the charter end date

McCool: if we have a test fest in september, it will be pretty much the spec

McCool: since farshid will not be available, we could do instead the testfest early october

<McCool> https://www.w3.org/wiki/TPAC/2021

McCool: we could have the test fest a week before the breakout sessions

<kaz> [[

<kaz> 12 October: AC Meeting

<kaz> 18 - 22 October : Breakout sessions

<kaz> 25 - 29 October : WG/IG/BG/CG meetings and Joint Group Meetings

<kaz> ]]

McCool: the week of the 11th is probably a good week for the testfest

Testing

<kaz> WoT Discovery Implementations

McCool: one of our outcomes should be an implementation report
… for discovery
… we should start looking at the list of assertions to check which one are testable

McCool: ...we need implementation descriptions, and start gathering the implementations information

McCool: we need to talk also about testing. We need a test plan
… we need to organise where the test are

McCool: farshid has done some work on this line

Andrea: one of the main problems in the test is the ordering of the array

McCool: well we will change the context to solve this

<FarshidT> Related issue for JSON Array ordering: https://github.com/w3c/wot-thing-description/issues/1188

<FarshidT> I think the spec does say indirectly that the order should be maintained: "A value of type Array MUST be serialized as JSON array". JSON arrays have a consistent ordering.

McCool: is drafting a testing plan

this plan should be the outcome of the testfest

McCool: October up to December we work on test of the implementation

Toumura: wondering about the procedure for the IANA consideration

Kaz: we should talk with PLH
… this is a bit different from the usual IANA registry for Media Types

<McCool> https://github.com/w3c/wot-discovery/issues/187

McCool: we should close the issues we have opened, as suggested by farshid, before doing a feature freezing

Toumura: I have Issue 187 Issue 187 - Registration of Well-known URI, Service Name and CoRE Resource Type on that

McCool: for the implementations
