jasonjgw: Would be good to have someone from the pervious workshop on our upcoming meeting

Web of Things: accessible recovery requirements and scenarios.

Previous email thread: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-apa/2023Jan/0000.html

jasonjgw: Where do we stand on this? Any updates?

janina: Do we know who owns the Matter spec?

janina: Suggest we review the spec and see if accessibility is addressed

janina: It will be a problem if the spec is a closed resource

jasonjgw: I believe this is an open spec

jasonjgw: Will search this out

janina: We have concerns over the accessibility of middleware

janina: the Matter spec is supposed to solve this

jasonjgw: Will attempt to clarify the status of related specifications

jason: Will reply to the RQTF mailing list with pertinent details

Task Force publications.

<janina> w3c/apa#314

jasonjgw: Discussion over COGA comments on RQTF publications are ensuing (esp collaboration tools)

scott_h: Some issues with accessibility of Google docs were noted

janina: suggest pointing to the C-TAUR GitHub repository for submitting comments

scott_h: Suggest focus on specific practical tangible comments for changes

jasonjgw: The key point is to have each issue distilled into individual issues in Github so that they can be tracked

scott_h: We have suggested that either GitHub issues or email (where each issue is separated out) is the most accessible and practical methods for providing input

jasonjgw: Suggestion was to recirculate the working draft asking for further review

janina: However, we did not want to update the draft before incorporating current feedback

scott_h: Agree that we should sort out the process first

jasonjgw: We can give this a could of weeks to see if we can get comments in a usable form

Miscellaneous topics.

janina: Question for Raja on personal data assistants

Raja: yes, could address this

jasonjgw: If Raja could submit something on the RQTF list, that would be helpful

Raja: Yes...can do

jasonjgw: Other matters??
