<darobin> crap, I'm still an hour early!
<darobin> yes, clearly PEBCAK in this case
<darobin> but last week I was fine and made exactly the same mistake
<darobin> so let's not presume that it's affecting my abilities in
any way :)
<MarcoMarengo> thnx
<darobin> this is weird, I don't show up!
<darobin> JereK, you would make a great scribe!
yes! :-)

Policy Segment
fhirsch: some open action items remain, discussion about possible
additional material needed
... some decisions we have to make
<fhirsch>

[18] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-device-apis/2009Sep/0126.html
fhirsch: looked at high-level material of the inputs
... someone from BONDI please give info about 1.01
... e-mail summarizes points so far, but doesn't cover everything
... one of the big ones is do we need both capabilities for both
APIs and device
<drogersuk> I'll give you some more info on the diffs between 1.01
and 1.0 via email
<drogersuk> (for BONDI)
fhirsch: don't know if it's issue for WG, but want discussion on the
mailing list
... reading items from list quickly
... bunch of Qs about identification, would like to see a mail
thread started about it
... language independence
... use XML for policy, worth discussion
... thread about separate policy decision exists
... can someone take an action to summarize HTML5 security policy?
... need actions to move things forward
... thanks David for the diff information, any more detail would be
useful
<darobin> ACTION: David to provide diffs for the BONDI versions
[recorded in
[19]http://www.w3.org/2009/09/30-dap-minutes.html#action01]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-22 - Provide diffs for the BONDI versions
[on David Rogers - due 2009-10-07].
<paddy> I can start a discussion on features/device capabilities
fhirsch: now would be a good time to discuss
<drogersuk> can't hear a thing
<drogersuk> ok
<darobin> ACTION: Paddy to open an issue and start a discussion on
features/device capabilities [recorded in
[20]http://www.w3.org/2009/09/30-dap-minutes.html#action02]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-23 - Open an issue and start a discussion
on features/device capabilities [on Paddy Byers - due 2009-10-07].
fhirsch: link to TAG discussion regarding policy sent by Robin
... has been a big issue in Geolocation, concerns retaining
information
... anybody in the position to take actions related to policy?
darobin: Paddy took an action about features/device capabilities
<fhirsch> need help with identifying APIs, Capabilities, FEaturews
by URI
fhirsch: maybe also related WebIDL stuff
darobin: no WebIDL stuff in this, not in terms of URIs
fhirsch: could use help with this
darobin: should probably open this as an issue, what levels of
granularity for identification
fhirsch: granularity of access control
... need to talk this through on the list, more than one person can
do this
... get stuff done and see what's wrong with it
... can go quicker if we have something to disagree
StephenLewontin: volunteer to help with the HTML5 security
<dom> ACTION: Stephen to look into HTML5 security model [recorded in
[21]http://www.w3.org/2009/09/30-dap-minutes.html#action03]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-24 - Look into HTML5 security model [on
stephen lewontin - due 2009-10-07].
SteveLewontin: need any requirements for capability semantics?
... how are those defined, just recommendations?
fhirsch: clearly have to say what we mean
<fhirsch> issue: policy, need to define semantics of capabilities or
not
<trackbot> Created ISSUE-24 - Policy, need to define semantics of
capabilities or not ; please complete additional details at
[22]http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/issues/24/edit .
[22] http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/issues/24/edit
SteveLewontin: will put this in writing, need to make a decision
about the semantics of capabilities
<dom> ACTION-24 due in two weeks
<trackbot> ACTION-24 Look into HTML5 security model due date now in
two weeks
SteveLewontin: will make an effort to do the action in two weeks
marcin: currently discussions in BONDI around features and
capabilities for 1.1
... white paper to highlight topics in progress
... needs some additions due to recent input, could use it as input
for this in DAP
... doable by next week's call
<dom> ACTION: marcin to provide BONDI white paper on features and
capabilities [recorded in
[23]http://www.w3.org/2009/09/30-dap-minutes.html#action04]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-25 - Provide BONDI white paper on features
and capabilities [on Marcin Hanclik - due 2009-10-07].
fhirsch: thanks Marcin
... back to the list
... another big one is trusted identity and trust
... don't want PKI, but need to see how far to go in this direction
... don't think there's any disagremeent in separating policy, the
BONDI ones are straightforward
... would be helpful to get the material from people
... would be good to have a proposal when you create the issue, will
send mail about this
... will be more productive that way
... any other comments about policy?
No
API Segment
<dom> ISSUE-12?
<trackbot> ISSUE-12 -- Gathering requirements for Gallery API --
OPEN
<trackbot> [24]http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/issues/12
[24] http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/issues/12
darobin: how do we orthogonalize API design so that policy is still
workable
... example is user grants access to gallery, depends on while
... simplest thing is to ignore the issue and hope policy system
handles, but could be too simplistic
<darobin>

[25] http://www.w3.org/mid/53714B75-E7DC-4B1F-BB53-B3C79ECD272D@robineko.com
darobin: suggested to raise an issue about this, link above

darobin: Richard raised another issue, link above
<darobin> ISSUE: Orthogonality of API and Policy systems when an API
has dependencies on other APIs
<trackbot> Created ISSUE-25 - Orthogonality of API and Policy
systems when an API has dependencies on other APIs ; please complete
additional details at
[27]http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/issues/25/edit .
[27] http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/issues/25/edit
richt: let's call it cross-module dependencies and impact on policy
darobin: means what you just said
richt: and the grouping of features and capabilities if that's
relevant
darobin: now updated with the correct name
<fhirsch> issue-25 grant access to gallery yet gallery depends on
file, is this implicit
darobin: potentially complicated enough to discuss by mail not by
phone
... would like to note that this has also been discussed in BONDI,
input from those people welcome
marcin: issue 25 is related to discussion about policy, could
combine them
<fhirsch> yes it is policy related
darobin: definitely, depending on decision about policy power, API
could be designed to be free of policy issues, but also the other
way around
<fhirsch> action-25?
<trackbot> ACTION-25 -- Marcin Hanclik to provide BONDI white paper
on features and capabilities -- due 2009-10-07 -- OPEN
<trackbot> [28]http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/actions/25
[28] http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/actions/25
marcin: issue 25 is related to action 25
darobin: lucky strike
... thanks Marcin
... question of umbrella requirements document for APIs, any
objections?
<dtran> Dzung Tran is on the phone (muted)
<fhirsch> yes to Robin's question, no objection
Agreement
darobin: will check document to IRC so that Bryan has something to
work with, then move forward
... many requirements gathering issues, 7, 14, etc., discussions
ongoing
... anyone have any issue they'd like to bring up regarding API
reqs?
<dom> (umbrella req document relates to ISSUE-22, which I assume can
now be closed)
[None]
richt: discussion about System Information led to asynchronicity
... could be something to discuss in the umbrella document
darobin: issue-14?
... that should move to 'applies to all APIs' section, agreed
... anything else on API reqs?
[None]
darobin: will coordinate with Bryan about the reqs posted so far,
then start fleshing out the real APIs
... anything further on APIs?
[None]
Issue review
fhirsch: no need to go one by one
<fhirsch> [29]http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/issues/open
[29] http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/track/issues/open
fhirsch: but not that many, just ask status
darobin: three quarters are those just talked about in the API
section, doesn't leave much
fhirsch; talk about error handling, but might make sense to wait
darobin: error handling better discussed in e-mail
... there was the beginning of a thread, ISSUE-2
<darobin>
[30]http://www.w3.org/mid/20090825130743.01C355F76D@stu.w3.org
[30] http://www.w3.org/mid/20090825130743.01C355F76D@stu.w3.org
fhirsch: relationship of error handling to security and leakage of
information?
... any talk in BONDI?
darobin: hasn't been discussed as ISSUE-2, not sure about BONDI
fhirsch: maybe less important now than other things
... end the call early if we run out of topics, continue actively on
the list
... need to get enough material on the list to have a meaningful
call
darobin: agreed
fhirsch: any concerns or issues to raise?
[None]
fhirsch: work on the issue and post on the list
darobin: great idea
<richt> Congraulations to Arve :-)
darobin: adjourned
Other Business
[None]
Adjourn
<brianleroux> goodbye
<marcin> bye
