Liaisons
Status of engagements with external standards organizations.
OPC UA
- Joint meeting planned for July 1
- PR for technical objectives: https://github.com/w3c/wot/pull/1020
- Met with Jeff about the next steps on the OPC UA liaison on March 24
- minutes (Member-only)
- need to clarify the technical details on our expectations
- need to have further informal discussions with OPC representatives too
- Next steps
- Dedicated liaison calls including WoT and OPC UA representatives (Sebastian)
- Requirements discussion based on the current use case and proposed WoT/OPC UA technical requirements
- OPC UA PlugFest participation (similar to ECHONET)
ITU-T SG20
- Next steps
- ITU-T wants to "... focus on ontologies, digital twin and AI related aspects in the smart city context."
- Plan to develop a document on a new smart cities ontology as an initial step.
- Gyu Myoung Lee shared slides from WF-IoT
- Next SG20 mtg is 19-28 July 2022; need further followup before then
- We have proposed Gyu Myoung Lee joining a near-future main call for a 15 discussion
ECHONET
- Next steps:
- Clearly define concrete use cases and technical requirements for ECHONET/WoT Binding
- Gap analysis: Identify missing features needed in WoT-next (to be covered in next charter)
- Initial discussion to be done within the WoT-JP CG while we (WoT-WG/IG) are concentrating on spec finalization.
IEC CDD (Common Data Dictionary)
- Ontologies for various industries - IEC61360, IEC62656
- Units are a current topic of discussion, relevant to Profiles
- Previous contacts with ISO TC184/SC4:
- need clarification on how to refer to their ontologies from TD
- some specific examples would be useful
- parts are also used as upper ontology for ECLASS, so we will pick up a few things if we start with ECLASS
- New contact with current IEC SC 3D - talking about how to proceed
- Kaz had a meeting with the Chair of the IEC SC 3D on April 18.
- They would like to have some more internal discussion within IEC.
- Probably it would be better to start some initial discussion within the WoT-JP CG first, and then bring feedback/input to the WoT-WG next.
- They have liaison with ISO TC184/SC4 and ECLASS already.
- Kaz will talk about the next steps with them o June 13 again.
ECLASS
- overlap with IEC discussion (see above)
- need clarification on how to refer to their ontologies from TD
- also a question about ECLASS logo on the WoT web page --> we have to ok for doing so
- an example was given during the F2F that used ECLASS for Thing metadata, but there may be other use cases for interaction annotation; to be discussed

Repo Management
Renaming Master to Main
See: Renaming the "master" branches to "main" (Member-only)
- Make sure to update your forks and local copies
- BEFORE making change in local copies or fork, check in all pending edits/updates
- Do NOT rebase a fork until you make this change
- To change in forks, look under Settings/Branches and change "master" to "main"
- For local copies...
- Simple way: delete and reclone
- Alternatively, for local direct clones of the w3c repo
-
git branch -m master main
-
git fetch origin
-
git branch -u origin/main main
-
- See above link for instructions
You can understand what this does better by reading the git branch docs.
Here -m
"moves" the branch (renaming master
to main
locally, basically) and -u
associates a remote "upstream" branch with a local branch, so that git pull
does the right thing (for instance). Note this means that you MUST update the remote first before trying to update your local copies. If you have other remotes you don't have to do anything, just either use the new branch name explicitly (e.g. git fetch upstream; git merge upstream/main
) or make sure the upstream repo has renamed master
to main
if you want fetch and merge corresponding branches in one step using git pull upstream
. Here upstream
is the name that I (McCool) use for a remote pointing at the w3c repo in MY setup. I cloned my original local copies from my own fork on github, so I have origin
pointing at my own fork. I then used git remote add upstream https://github.com/w3c/wot-testing
to add an additional remote called upstream
pointed at the corresponding W3C repo I can use for rebasing, etc. I do PRs by pushing up changes to my own fork, then doing PRs to the W3C repos from there using the web interface. See above link for more instructions.
