PRs

Timezones

https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/pull/356

<Ege> https://github.com/w3c/wot-marketing/tree/main/docs#adapting-to-daylight-saving-changes

Ege: current published version shows different time due to timezone changes
… I essentially reverted to *old* stage

<Ege> PR 356 - Timezone fix and events update--wot-marketing.netlify.app/activities/meetings/ Preview

Daniel: one hour off for Singapore time

Kaz: We should not update it manually
… safer to use link only
… or calendar invites
… we can prepare for the 3 patterns for timezones

Ege: I see
… I would like to leverage the calendar invites

Kaz: Should be 1 hour later

Ege: I will make the change
… should merge soon since we are late
… I added link to *new* TestFest

Kaz: merging is fine
… however we can use *one* time (i.e., US Eastern) and add datetime link.. if we don't want to do that manually

TD Explainer

PR 355 - refactor: link to explainer on GitHub and remove content in marketing

Ege: We agreed to use link only
… no objections, we can merge

Articles Page

PR 357 - Articles Page

Ege: Links to different articles
… documentation page is most popular
… we should not restructure it .. otherwise we will lose/confuse people

Ege: Is still intial work

<Ege> https://deploy-preview-357--wot-marketing.netlify.app/about/articles/

Ege: I expect some feedback

Kaz: What do you mean by articles?

Ege: Anything on the Web
… press release
… 3rd party pages ..

Kaz: If we search for "Web of Things" we will get a lot of hits
… how to pick the *right* links

Ege: We should define a policy
… PR 357 should have policy before merging
… btw, we do not get that many links
… but some are out-dated
… or simply wrong

Kaz: describing resources and references needs that we check that the information is correct

Cristiano: some articles might confuse people ... since they are misleading
… suggest shorter but accurate list

Ege: Generally we have more publications than articles
… let get back to it next week

Issue Discussion

Marketing TF tasks

Issue 354 - Listing the remaining tasks of the Marketing TF

Ege: We should point people to this issue and if they agree

New possible Marketing slot?

Ege: moreover, we should ask for a new timeslot

Daniel: 1 hour later would be better

Cristiano: 1 hour later would be better for me as well

Ege: Earlier ?

Cristiano: Not really

Kaz: 1 hour later would not be good for me
… anyhow we should have another doodle poll

Ege: We could also think about having 30 minutes

Cristiano: fine by me also.. if we start the 2nd hour

Daniel: +1

Ege: Will ask via email also about new slot

Kaz: Sending announcement to whole group is fine
… we should also consider quorum for this call
… 4 people might be okay.. but seems to few to me

Ege: More organizations or people?

Kaz: Depends on task force policy and work items
… online discussions might be going to be fine

Ege: Github, email etc ?

Kaz: yes
… maybe rethink how we run the task force

Ege: I see

Ege: Not sure yet who to contact

Kaz: btw, we need to clarify the work items

Discovery explainer

Issue 338 - Add Discovery Explainer

Daniel: I can add a link again

Closing outreach issue

Issue 52 - Establish meeting for developer outreach

Ege: Propose closing this issue
… happening on CG side

Daniel: fine by me

Cristiano: +1
… we could link our office hours

Ege: Makes sense
