Meeting Summary - 05 March 2007

The following is an exceptionally brief summary of this week's
meeting of the members of the W3C Device Description Working Group.

[Normally, Rotan would send out a more detailed summary himself;
however, he's traveling and offline but wants to make sure that
some form of meeting summary gets out to the public list as soon
as possible each week. So we're sending it now].

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Definition of "Device Description"
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  - We have agreement that we can't start building an ontology
    until we have a common understanding of "device description"

  - We seem to have agreement about the need to make the
    definition of "device description" more generic than just
    being limited to the delivery of a web page, but instead to
    any aspect, but with the DDWG as a group focusing on the
    specific aspect that has to do with adaptation.

  RESOLVED: Do one more iteration on a proposal what is meant by
  "device" and "device description" and send out for public
  discussion by end of this week.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Starting the ontology work
----------------------------------------------------------------------
   We're using the Protege application and need to understand how
   to break up Protege projects for group work.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Reports from editors.

  - Ecosystem: we had a contribution related to this on the
