- Need to avoid related org's meetings, e.g. Fiware Summit
- TF Reorganization
- Recruitment, e.g. Security
- Reactivation of Profiles, Architecture, etc.
- Social Media

Publications
(done)
Resources
- TD
- Still need to render HTML for TM
- Some changes to TM TTL needed - how to handle versioning?
- Need a policy for resource versioning and how to handle updates
- Ege: TD TF has decided to make one change since the current TTL is not used anywhere (and cannot be really used). Any further update should be versioned
- Discovery
- HTML corresponding to TTL file for discovery ontology is still a placeholder
- Discovery DID registration in progress
- But now possible as URL resolves
