Minutes

July-19

… any objections?

(none; approved)

Vacation plan

Daniel: planning to take off but not decided yet

Cristiano: maybe I can tell more next week

Publication plan

Kaz: we should maintain the schedule somewhere, e.g., a separate section within the agenda wiki

PRs

<dape> feat: move thing-description types to a dedicated package

<dape> related Issue 327 - Publish Thing Description schema and Types in another npm package

Cristiano: 2 directories about TypeScript definition
… npm workspace is used

npm workspace

Cristiano: we don't need to publish the whole mechanism
… use git tag to mark the history (e.g. git tag thing-description@1.1.0-DATE)

Daniel: make sense
… but we'll get too many tags

Cristiano: this is completely optional

Daniel: we can ask Zoltan, etc., about opinions

Kaz: why do we need this complicated mechanism?
… do we need/want to maintain all the versions?

Daniel: we can see the content of each version using the tags

Kaz: it's just that we want to provide some specific version of Scriping API (and typescript-based definition for tha) with some specific version of TD
… in that case, we can simply mention this version of Scripting API should be used with that version of TD, etc.
… do we really need to maintain all the versions using this mechanism?

Daniel: we just need some specific version. that's true
… but evolution of the Scripting API spec should be also recorded

Kaz: do we want to distribute Scripting API implementations using to people automatically?

Daniel: probably we should ask Zoltan, etc., for opinions

Cristiano: it's optional but might be confusing
… let's stick with the current workflow for a while
… btw, the current folder structure seems a bit strange
… but changing the package name would not be good

Daniel: "wot-typescript-definitions" vs "wot-typescript-thing-description" vs "wot-thing-description-types"

Cristiano: need consistency

Daniel: would like to change the version number from "1.0.0" to "0.0.1"
… other than that point, would like to hear Zoltan's opinion as well
… (adds a comment to issue 329: add "private" to package.json so that it cannot be published)
… would like to stop here today

Cristiano: ok
