<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/566

Noah: We should continue to liaise with IAB -- keep Thomas in loop

<noah> NM: And Yves, of course

Noah: and PLH

<noah> NM: Our liaisons are Thomas and Philippe

<noah> YL: Yes

<noah> NM: What to do about privacy at the Sept. F2F?

<noah> AM: Noah, you had asked us to look at Do Not Track working group charter.

<noah> AM: I didn't manage to sync up with Dan

<noah> NM: Product page shows Privacy Friendly Web (early draft of report — product page needed) Daniel Appelquist, Ashok Malhotra

<noah> NM: No specific product page, but this: http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/products/PrivacyFriendlyWeb.html

<noah> ACTION-583?

<trackbot> ACTION-583 -- Ashok Malhotra to (with help from Dan) organize TAG review of proposed W3C charter on tracking protection (privacy) Due 2011-07-26 -- due 2011-07-21 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/583

<noah> AM: Not sure what TAG can contribute now, given formation of working group.

<noah> NM: Working group is mostly scoped to Do Not Track?

<noah> AM: Yes

<jar> http://www.w3.org/2011/07/privacy-ig-charter

<noah> AM: Larry had suggested a threat model, and from it derive weaknesses. Maybe we're too late to do that.

<noah> AM: Jonathan, that's the IG charter.

<jar> http://www.w3.org/2011/tracking-protection/charter-draft.html

Noah: The privacy-fiendly web does not have a product page
... at the f2f we can have a short discussion of whether we should do future work in this area

<noah> NM: Propose at minimum a short F2F discussion of deciding whether we have a "product" in the privacy area, and if so with what scope goals, etc. If someone prepares a more detailed report, we could review that.

HT: Registers modest amount of scepticism about this area

<noah> HT: Worried about lack of TAG background and skill set.

<noah> AM: Was about to agree with you. Not worth the time unless someone steps up and says "think about thus and so...". Haven't heard that.

JAR: Agrees with HT. I'm missing a framework.

Noah: We can explain to people the expectations they should have when using the Web
... we could make a contribution along those lines for privacy.

<jar> You're talking about security, not privacy, Noah

Noah: Educate people about privacy on the Web

JAR: Framework will not come from us

<jar> This group is not going to originate any high level ideas on privacy

Noah: Should we spend half an hour on this?

jar: Only if someone has something to bring to the table

<noah> NM: Scope of F2F, whether to keep working in this area.

Ashok: Half an hour at most

Noah: Discusses with HT re. Interaction for Web Apps

jar: Dan was going to work on it

<jar> Don't we already have a security wiki?

<jar> Maybe it's just a cors/ump wiki.

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/574

<noah> AM: Jonathan and I took a look, turned out we didn't have a lot to say. I think spec is mature. We should close the action. Jonathan?

<noah> JAR: Not swapped in.

<noah> JAR: Ah, host meta.

<noah> JAR: Long ago, Sandro raised question of XML vs. RDF. I don't feel that strongly.

<noah> JAR: Does relate to work on definition discovery.

<noah> NM: Close the action, as Ashok suggests?

<noah> JAR: Yes, without implying feedback pro or con

<noah> close ACTION-574

<trackbot> ACTION-574 Review http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-hammer-hostmeta/?include_text=1 in preparation for TAG review Due 2011-07-12 closed

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/472

<noah> NM: Do we know if he wants to ramp down TAG's part of the work?

<noah> JAR: My impression is he wants discussion, if only to figure next steps.

<noah> NM: Note product page http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/products/mimeweb.html is high priority. So we at least need to explicitly declare success/failure, etc.

<noah> NM: We WILL discuss at F2F

<noah> ACTION-531?

<trackbot> ACTION-531 -- Larry Masinter to draft document on architectural good practice relating to registries -- due 2011-07-30 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/531

<noah> NM: Same answer?

<noah> JAR: Yes.

<noah> ACTION-509?

<trackbot> ACTION-509 -- Jonathan Rees to communicate with RDFa WG regarding documenting the fragid / media type issue -- due 2011-06-15 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/509

jar: My recommendation is to remove the words "at present"

<jar> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2011Jun/0113.html

<noah> From their draft:

<noah> "In some of the examples below we have used IRIs with fragment identifiers that are local to the document containing the RDFa fragment identifiers shown (e.g., 'about="#me"'). This idiom, which is also used in RDF/XML [RDF-SYNTAX-GRAMMAR] and other RDF serializations, gives a simple way to 'mint' new IRIs for entities described by RDFa and therefore contributes considerably to the expressive power of RDFa. Unfortunately, this practice is not at present cover

jar: I suggested 4 options

<noah> HT: Fussing with the wording before settling the architectural issue isn't necessarily the best course. Not that I will necessarily understand the architectural issue, and I have taken some responsibility for moving on the larger cluster of fragid-related issues.

Noah: shall we bump the due date and cross-reference with other frag-id issue

HT: Cross-reference with product page

<noah> NM: The ACTION is on the fragid product page. Bump the date and move on?

HT: We should discuss at f2f

<noah> ACTION-509 Due 2011-09-15

<trackbot> ACTION-509 Communicate with RDFa WG regarding documenting the fragid / media type issue due date now 2011-09-15

<noah> ACTION-478?

<trackbot> ACTION-478 -- Jonathan Rees to prepare a second draft of a finding on persistence of references, to be based on decision tree from Oct. 2010 F2F -- due 2011-08-09 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/478

<jar> for the record jar favors (b) remove "at present" - it's a hedge, and has the virtue of removing the implicit promise of future work

<noah> JAR: Still intend to work on ACTION-478

<noah> Jonathan, will you just let me know later whether you favor a F2F slot?

Noah: We don't have a product page for this

<noah> NM: Worth doing product page now?

<noah> NM: Could clarify what we're about.

<noah> JAR: Could do at the F2F

Noah: should we think about that or just continue with technical work

<noah> ACTION-576?

<trackbot> ACTION-576 -- Jonathan Rees to with help from Henry to figure out impact of RDFa core on generic fragids story, especially in 3023bis Due 2011-7-12 -- due 2011-06-30 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/576

<noah> ACTION-541?

<trackbot> ACTION-541 -- Jeni Tennison to helped by DKA to produce a first draft of terminology about (deep-)linking etc. -- due 2011-07-26 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/541

<noah> Noah to find Jeni and/or Dan to figure out whether ACTION-541 needs time at the F2F

<noah> HT: We need to do something that gets into the public media

Noah: Something that gets published

<noah> Note, that we have a June 2012 target for a W3C Proposed Recommendation. Does that work?

HT: Educate people about linking

Noah: For the media we need something pithy

<noah> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/overdue?sort=owner

<noah> ACTION-560?

<trackbot> ACTION-560 -- Henry Thompson to review HTML polyglot last call Due 2011-06-06 -- due 2011-06-02 -- OPEN

<noah> ACTION-528?

<trackbot> ACTION-528 -- Henry Thompson to create and get consensus on a product page and tracker product page for persistence of names -- due 2011-08-10 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/actions/528

<noah> HT: We've talked about 528

<noah> HT: Aside from things already (fragids and persistence of domains) nothing for me at the F2F

HT: Nothing that else will come up at f2f ... we have discussed frag-ids and persistence of identifiers

Ashok: I will work on Client-Side state draft

Telcons in August

HT: Cannot do telcon next week

Noah: I will send mail re. future telcons
