Minutes [Was: [Agenda] 17 August Payment Apps task force meeting]

Hello all,

Minutes from today’s payment apps task force meeting:
 https://www.w3.org/2016/08/17-apps-minutes.html

We discussed:

 * A proposal from Adam Roach for a service-worker-like approach to invoking payment apps.
 * Sharing of (merchant) origin information with payment apps, which can be useful for some payment
   methods (e.g., that involve tokenization) but would also raise privacy concerns.
 * Tension between usability and security around payment app registration
 * Tension between merchant/browser/user preferences in display of payment apps
 * Barely started discussion of TPAC planning, with mention of potential payment app demos.

Ian
