McCool: there is a typo with extra quotes
<kaz> June-26
McCool: one question here, part of mention about geolocation is missing
<McCool_> change "that's possible" to "geolocation has two parts, metadata and discovery; the second depends on the first"
the typo is with the sentence: around "break "improvements"
that should be "break 'improvements'"
<kaz> (fixed)
minutes are published since there is no objection
detailed planning
<McCool_> wot PR 1094 - Discovery Planning
<kaz> proposed work-items.md within the PR
McCool: the summary is putting planning documents under discovery-planning branch
… in last meetings the working items were prioritized
McCool: adds some points under additional introductions (e.g. discovery in MQTT)
McCool: high priority are things that provide us major functionalities, middle are improvements but are not pillar functionalities, low is questionable/tentative things
McCool: the middle priority is divided into direct and dependency
Kaz: the categorization is nice
… but we need to think about concrete use cases for variable industry adaptions.
McCool: we should look for use cases that want to adopt WoT directly for this
McCool: we could focus on things that are just wot and remove middle having only two categories instead of three
Kaz: we need also to consider existing discovery mechanisms in IoT (that is open question)
mccool captures this comment under "Open Questions"
Kaz: we should confirm and validate the compatibility with these mechanisms in WoT
Luca: onboarding should not be discussed here
… that's part of security
Luca: there are two components one is in charge of discovery items and another mapping the device to a description
McCool: this extends the scope of discovery, the discovery is more restricted. We discovery things that are registered and there is no generation of TDs, these are provided.
mccool adds an item explaining this topic under the Open Questions
McCool: moving to geolocation, maybe what is a bit confusing is that geolocation can be divided into two items: the meta-data part and the discovery using that meta-data
mccool fixes the work items in the document putting moving the bullets under their correct section
McCool: any idea on how to improve the organisation of this section?
Kaz: I'm OK with this discussion itself, but we could use the wot-discovery repository to discuss this around the initial phase of the Discovery TF's work for the next Charter, Couldn't we?
McCool: yes, but the planning discussion should be managed based on the group-wide decision. So I proposed this method during the planning meeting last week and it was approved. Also moving the information from now would be confusing.
mccool merges the PR
Kaz: this discussion is fine as initial brainstorming, but for further discussion, we need to look into concrete use cases for example for smart homes, smart buildings and smart cities, which would require more complicated setting and mechanism for device and user discovery
… and after clarifying those target use cases, we can think about what is needed for WoT Discovery.
McCool: right
<Mizushima> +1 kaz
McCool: but note that I don't want to extend the scope of WoT Discovery drastically
Kaz: agree
McCool: please review the updated work items and give comments
