   Daniel: we would like to do some pretesting before travelling
   to Beijing.

   <michael> Daniel: please review and add any additional
   requirements

   We added a section to the wiki page for people to provide
   network requirements for the plugfest.

   Kaz: this includes whether people need access to the external
   Internet

   <jhund> [13]Plugfest Requirements section of the meeting wiki

     [13] https://www.w3.org/WoT/IG/wiki/F2F_meeting,_July_2016,_China,_Beijing#Requirements

   Daniel confirms that the link Kaz posted is the right one.

   The idea is to provide a checking tool for the Beijing team to
   verify that the network at the meeting venue meets our
   requirements.

   Johannes: shows us the W3C action tracker (as linked from the
   IG webpage.

   <kaz> [14]Action Tracker

     [15] https://www.w3.org/WoT/IG/wiki/Main_Page#Latest_Updates

   This is a high level summary of recent updates

   This should make it easier to track e.g. when documents are
   moved from the wiki to github or vice versa

   <kaz> [16]Beijing f2f wiki

     [16] https://www.w3.org/WoT/IG/wiki/F2F_meeting,_July_2016,_China,_Beijing

   DP: I want to tell you that Matthias wrote about making pull
   request.
   ... I can show it once during the call.

   DR: Is everyone comfortable using GitHub?

   DR: We already have list of deliverables.

   KA: We need brief discussion about basic deliverables using 5
   minutes.
   ... People maybe not very good at...
   ... It may be better to have chat, and reach consensus, instead
   of starting at GitHub.
   ... People may not be very good at directly using GitHub.

   Sebastian: Dave wrote good introduction.
   ... What is this group, and what do we want to achieve, we need
   those information.

   JH: I am not sure if we can discuss all the details.

   Sebastian: Four people made comments on Introduction section so
   far.

   JH: As Kaz said, we need to reach high level consensus on the
   call.

   DR: we need to have stable charter in 2 or 3 weeks.

   JH: We want to avoid that some people don't comment because of
   tooling difficulty.

   DR: Please feel free to use email as well.

   JH: It is totally valid way.
   ... You can always see the latest charter from this link...

   <jhund> [22]http://w3c.github.io/wot/charters/wot-ig-2016.html

     [22] http://w3c.github.io/wot/charters/wot-ig-2016.html

   DR: We need to give a timeline.
   ... We need estimates as to when they will be published.

   JH: Regarding rechartering, when we will have individual
   documents.

   DR: We need to describe what we have done in the current
   charter period as SK mentioned.
   ... The editors of those documents should provide estimates.

   JH: We already have first versions.

   DR: We have editors draft.
   ... we need to publish formally.

   estimation.

   <kaz> [23]web&tv ig charter

     [23] https://www.w3.org/2012/11/webTVIGcharter.html

   <jhund> ACTION on me to contact editors to provide a release
   date incl. a 1-week CFC

   due 2016-05-18].

     [24] https://www.w3.org/WoT/IG/track/actions/50

   KA: WebTV charter example is here...
   ... It didn't provide explicit schedule.
   ... Detailed information would be nicer.
   ... BTW, I wanted to make sure our procedure that during IG
   calls those who made pull request can introduce it during call.

   JH: We should have executive summary during call and decide
   what to do.

   DR: Michael proposed replacing one of those diagrams.

   MK: Github issue I filed regarding transfer layer.
   ... HTTP, COAP, MQTT should be included. If we have more
   transfer layer, we should use REST, and use them as transport
   layer.

   DR: There are many protocols. What would be the criteria?
   ... Zigbee, KNX, etc.

   MK: We should include those.

   DR: Can you rephrase it for generality?

     [26] https://github.com/w3c/wot/issues/131

   description should be reconstructed according to current
   practices.

   DP: about Micheael comment. I went over all issues, and created
   pull requests. We might want to merge them.

   MK: I will do that.

   KA: We should add IDs to all the headings (<h2>, <h3>, etc.).
   ... in the template.

   Toru: Number #131.
   ... Both are addressing the same issue as Naka-san pointed out.

   <kaz> [27]issue-133

     [27] https://github.com/w3c/wot/pull/133

   JH: Should we merge?

   Toru: Matthias's text is richer, and we should use it.

   JH: I will merge.
