<kaz> Feb-14

McCool: any objections? No objections.

restructuring lifecycle section

Issue 704

McCool: There is a confusion about bootstrapping. It may include key distribution. I need to look into this again.

name and in fields

issue 1394

McCool: If it goes against the spec, we have to fix this, even if it breaks the spec.

Jan: I am not sure, if that is such a critical issue.

Jan: The basic scheme could also be used with MQTT, but this isn't allowed from the spec.

McCool: The Scheme tried to be as generic as possible.

Jan: I think the security scheme should be revisited for TD 2.0.

Jan: I think Ege also mentioned some changes in OpenAPI. There is some realignment necessary for TD 2.0.

Jan: In general the problem is that the schemes are all inspired by HTTP.

McCool: Jan, can you take care of it and create a PR?

Jan: Sure, will do.

Security and Privacy Considerations

Issue 1402

McCool: I need someone to review this.

McCool: I added the risk of the field title/description. To make it short: Sanitize your strings, just like in HTML.

McCool: Add PII in the id or other fields shouldn't be done. I added that as well.
